Democrats launch investigation into Center for Medical Progress
Live Action News ^ | 8/20/15 | Susan Michelle

One day after the nation learned that babies were born alive with hearts beating, then sliced up to retrieve brains and body parts, House Democrats have launched an investigation – into The Center for Medical Progress, not into the allegations of infanticide.

In a four-page letter today, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), ranking Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, asked CMP for a list of information, including copies of all its video and audiotapes.

Cummings insists that, “Any legitimate and balanced congressional investigation must also address your group’s role in these activities.” He adds that if there are hearings on this issue, then they will need this information. Cummings’ letter says that the videos “implicate Center for Medical Progress and its affiliates in potentially unlawful activities” by secretly recording Planned Parenthood.

Ever notice that Democrats are always on Satan’s side? Instead of a jackass as their symbol, they should have a pentagram.

I would give a minority panel the time of day. I don’t believe they have the power to do anything but showboat for the media

those investigating this will drop it because the last thing they want is more spotlight on what they are doing.

Elijah Cummings is a direct tool of the Obama/Jarrett White House.

His job is to disrupt and make a shambles out of hearings on Obama scandals—which he has done at Fast and Furious, Benghazi and IRS/Lois Lerner hearings.

His ace in the hole is cry and wail loudly that he has been “disrespected” by non-lefty committee members.

A classic hack politician, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), is writing letters. When a ranking member acquires the power of subpoena, let him write one of those.

Actually, I’d release the videos that are already in the public domain to him on the condition that he sit with his family and watch every one of them.

Write him back and ask him to produce all communications with Planned Parenthood.

I’d send them all copies of the videos, and dare them to actually watch them.
