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.

In 2014, Clinton was honored with the organization’s Margaret Sanger award.

****************************************

Fodder for political ad ..... some of Sanger's quotes on what she believed along with some statistics on how many black babies have been killed by PP. Just the NY statistics (more killed than born) would be 'instructive'.

For example (Woman, morality, and birth control, p.12):

We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.

I saw the latest video. It nauseated me, and I am VERY familiar with abortion blood and guts photos.

Perhaps it's because the "technicians" have their faces in a dish of body parts, poking around with scalpels, saying things like, "here's a lung," "here's a liver," and "oh, it was a boy."

You can see the parts distinctly.

She should be in prison. Period.

...”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.”...

“Animal Farm,” also written by Orwell is prophetic. His amazing mind saw what was coming.

Good sound bite for future commercials juxtaposing her support for PP against an undercover video showing a racial bias by PP (promised in an upcoming video).

Wrong Lily. She’s one of the few who makes me smile at a commercial.

We are given a menu and we don’t like anything from column A or B.
It is time to go to a different restaurant!
Unless/When it comes down to nitty or gritty, I will vote for the one who was never a “politician”!
In the mid seventies, living in Ft. Lauderdale Fl, I personally helped a young man become a US Representative, there.
Today I live in the center of the state of Florida. Low and behold guess who is again, forty years later, is my Rep..
My Xitch with him is neither I nor any my friends can get him to reply to our messages. Money requests are the only thing we receive from him.

I love seeing this beach shooting off her mouth again. She has convinced herself that she has nine political lives.

* “Hillary, you got to get your head right.

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

“Yes, Mr. Soros.” *

“Shakin’ the bush, boss!”

Instead of being the man with no eyes, Soros is the man with no heart.

I wonder if Hilary will cut a baby up on TV and say, “What difference does it make?”
