Hillary Reverses Course: I Proudly Stand With Planned Parenthood

On Wednesday, Democratic presidential candidate Hilllary Clinton expressed concern over new undercover videos showing Planned Parenthood doctors haggling over the price of aborted baby parts.

“I have seen pictures from them and obviously find them disturbing," Clinton said in an interview with The New Hampshire Union Leader.

But just 24-hours later, Clinton has changed course, saying last night that she proudly stands by and supports the abortion giant.

@HillaryClinton Proud to stand w/Planned Parenthood & for access to quality, affordable healthcare for women, men & young people. -H https://twitter.com/mayaharris_/status/626909449538539520 …

According to the Washington Free Beacon, the daughter of Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards is working for the Clinton campaign.

The Clinton campaign has drawn heavily from pro-abortion professionals. One of its top officials in Iowa, the nation’s first primary state, is Lily Adams, daughter of Planned Parenthood’s president, Cecile Richards. Jane Emerson, the women’s outreach director of Clinton’s failed 2008 campaign, previously served as CEO of the abortion provider’s South Carolina operations.

Planned Parenthood has also partnered with Clinton’s controversial family foundation, helping with six projects under the Clinton Global Initiative umbrella. The Clinton Foundation did not respond to a request for comment.

Further, a new report from America Rising shows how extensive the relationship between the Clintons and Planned Parenthood has been over the years.

In 2014, Clinton was honored with the organization’s Margaret Sanger award. In 2009, Clinton spoke at Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s annual gala. Clinton also spoke to the group in Washington, D.C. in 2007.

Planned Parenthood maintained close ties to Clinton during her tenure as Secretary of State. Clinton praised PPFA’s work around the world, and PPFA returned praise when Clinton left the State Department. Under Clinton, PPFA and its affiliates received millions in grant funding for international program implementation and advocacy. During Clinton’s tenure, PPFA and its affiliates also spent over $3.3 million lobbying federal agencies, including the State Department and USAID, on several issues and pieces of legislation.

Bill Clinton also has a close relationship with Planned Parenthood. PPFA has praised Bill Clinton and currently highlights him and his presidency on its website. Bill Clinton has also defended PPFA against proposed cuts in federal funding by Congressional Republicans.

Over the years, the Clintons have received almost $67,000 in campaign contributions from Planned Parenthood and its employees. So far in the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton has received almost $12,000 from employees of Planned Parenthood, including several maxed-out donations from heads of PPFA affiliates.

Planned Parenthood is also close with several Clinton-connected groups who have gone all-in on her 2016 campaign.

Planned Parenthood is also connected to the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative. Its affiliates have contributed to the Clinton Foundation, and since 2008, PPFA has partnered with CGI on projects around the world.

Planned Parenthood is under heavy scrutiny from law makers on Capitol Hill after a series of undercover videos from the Center for Medical Progress show Planned Parenthood doctors haggling over the sale of aborted baby parts. The videos are graphic, with one released yesterday showing doctors detailing "intact" organs and playing with brain, heart and eyes in a pan.

I proudly stand with infanticide and the illegal selling of the body parts of the murdered children.

“Hillary, you got to get your head right.

What we have here, is a failure to communicate.”

“Yes, Mr. Soros.”

The big Q is: will she have to answer to the Justice Dept. for any of the stuff she does before she answers to St. Peter?

An overnight poll must’ve told her where to stand today.

What a twit.

It didn’t take long for Hillary’s previous comments about being disturbed by the PP videos to be consigned to a “memory hole”. Orwell’s novel 1984 is becoming prophecy.

I think that planned parenthood got to her and told her that if she doesn’t support them, they are going ‘public’ with information on her she doesn’t want out there....

Good. Then you and Bill with your Clinton Foundation and your leftist lunatic friends can underwrite PP and save the taxpayers $528 million/year.

How about it, Hill?

She not only puts he finger into the wind but her whole hand.

Aside: If a blond is having fun at a party, does she know it?

If Hillary is hurting her own chances, does she know it?
