Topic: Investigations Into Planned Parenthood Are Falling Totally Flat (Read 950 times)

What crime has been committed?

Not really. When confronted with a pie plate of baby parts, what do YOU want to see?

The legality isn't the point. The complete rejection of humanity IS.

How is it propaganda hogwash when no wrong doing has been found?

lol. Leave it to nitwit liberals to know a crime is committed in, oh, say Oregon, but take the investigation to Delaware.

Total fail. Total. Half of the aborted fetuses would have grown up to become women until liberals killed them.

Care to try again?

I wonder what states have PP facilities that actually do collect and donate fetal tissue, rather than properly dispose of it, as in the cases of the states "investigated" for violating fetal tissue donation laws. Could Missouri be one, where the governor refuses to investigate? Could Virginia be one, where the governor refuses to investigate.

This is propaganda hogwash, which any critical thinking person should be able to see through.

If the facilities inspected don't collect fetal tissue, I wouldn't expect investigators to find any wrong doing regarding collection and sale of fetal tissue. Now, if you're a critical thinker, you may question what information this biased source is leaving out. I have to do it when I read Breitbart or WND. You should do it when you read Think Progress. It makes us all better thinkers and decision makers.

This whole issue is like a Rorschach test… People continue to see what they want to see.

I'll make a few points, after reading the responses:

State Republicans in Georgia were panicked into conducting an investigation (wasting public funds) by the false allegations that PP was doing something illegal. They weren't and there has been no proof that they did. Anywhere. StemExpress, finding themselves in the crosshairs of the crazies (no proof, but they don't need proof to go nuts), decided to stand down their business dealings with PP, though when this whole uproar is proven to be nothing but the usual right wing lie, they could be back.

Yes they aren't engaged in the wrong doing in Georgia, they are elsewhere as was captured in the videos.BTW StemExpress has cut ties with them because of the wrong doing.

Oh look! They "cleared" the sites not doing fetal tissue profiteering, so let's forget the ones that are. SLB= Standard Leftist Bull

Well, yeah. What we're looking at is just another full face plant  for the faux outrage generated by and for the ignorant and unwashed in their continual war on women:

Following the release of several inflammatory videos that suggest Planned Parenthood is improperly profiting from the sale of “aborted baby parts,” GOP lawmakers have been quick to condemn the national women’s health organization. However, their current strategies to attack Planned Parenthood are falling short.

Planned Parenthood officials say they’re simply helping their patients donate fetal tissue samples, which can help scientists develop new treatments for serious diseases. Anti-abortion activists, meanwhile, say the misleading videos released by the right-wing group Center for Medical Progress prove the organization is acting immorally.

In response, several state officials have launched investigations into their local Planned Parenthood affiliates, looking for proof that the group is breaking the law.

But so far, they’ve come up completely empty.

Officials in states including Georgia, Indiana, Massachusetts, and South Dakota have not been able to turn up any evidence that Planned Parenthood clinics are violating state laws and regulations regarding the collection of fetal tissue donations. Records obtained from other states, like Kansas, reveal that some Planned Parenthood clinics don’t even give their patients the option to donate this tissue.


Georgia was quick to jump all over this (we have serious Republicans in charge) and found this:

Planned Parenthood Southeast and four other abortion providers in Georgia are following state law on proper disposal of fetal tissues after abortions, a review by the state found.

In a letter released Wednesday, Dr. Brenda Fitzgerald, commissioner of the Department of Public Health, told Gov. Nathan Deal, “I have concluded that each (clinic) has proper procedures in place for burial or interment of remains and that all such facilities are currently following that portion of the law.” (AJC, Thursday, 8/13)

Yep, just another snipe hunt with public funds chasing another figment of imagination that run loose in the fantasy bubble that passes for right wing beliefs (which they all know are true). Sad. Really, really sad.

Sounds about par for the course.

Every day, especially lately, I'm more proud and thankful I'm not one of them.

Here's an idea. Investigate PP in the states where the videos were made.
