From Bad to Worse… The Evil of Planned Parenthood’s Sale of Babies’ Body Parts Grows

Could it get any more grotesque?

The answer is actually yes as yet another video has been released this morning showing undercover footage of a senior Planned Parenthood official haggling about the price for the harvesting and sale of organs from butchered babies.

In the latest video, a different senior official from Planned Parenthood discusses using “less crunchy” techniques to get more “whole specimens,” haggles over the price for organs while saying she doesn’t want to lowball the price, and jokes, “[S]o let me just figure out what others are getting, if this is in the ballpark, it’s fine, if it’s still low then we can bump it up. I want a Lamborghini.”

The more we learn about the facts from senior Planned Parenthood officials discussing the crushing and selling of unborn baby parts, the more appalling it all becomes.

In their first statement following the first video’s release, Planned Parenthood proudly confirmed the validity of Dr. Nucatola’s statements in the video while framing the fees they charge as reimbursement for their troubles of harvesting and transporting the organs of butchered babies.  

They actually doubled down. This taxpayer funded abortion behemoth is actually proud of what it is doing. Instead of distancing themselves from the gruesome reality of the dissection of unborn children’s bodies—which left many Americans stunned by the barbaric practices described—Planned Parenthood smugly stood up for their actions.

And when the initial statements did not seem to silence the millions of Americans who are appalled by the sale of baby parts, Planned Parenthood’s President, Cecile Richards, released a statement. In a pre-recorded video, she again confirmed that Planned Parenthood does in fact harvest organs, but this time she apologized for Dr. Nucatola’s “tone” in the video.

But why is she apologizing? Why would Richards need to apologize for the doctor’s tone in the video, if what Dr. Nucatola was discussing is as routine and “ethical” as Planned Parenthood contends?

But this is the problem with Planned Parenthood. They mask their barbaric brutality with euphemisms, soulless slogans, and apparently some salad and red wine.

They call the organs of slaughtered babies “fetal tissue.” They call unborn babies “clumps of cells” until labeling their organs as “human” helps their bottom line. And they call their slaughter of millions “quality family planning.”

In fact, according to the latest figures available, Planned Parenthood performed 327,653 abortions in one year - that averages out to 898 abortions per day and 37 abortions per hour.

And they do all of this while receiving a half-billion of our tax dollars. And sometimes they do this evil work for the federal government and the Obama Administration itself.

The Federalist broke the news:

Deborah Nucatola—the Planned Parenthood doc with the stone-cold heart and the lucrative skill of “crushing” babies in just the right spot—has been advising the Obama administration on family planning policy since 2010.

From April 2010 through April 2014, Nucatola was one of several experts the U.S. Health and Human Services Office of Population Affairs (OPA) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Division of Reproductive Health tasked with creating federal guidelines for “quality family planning services.” […]

Her responsibilities as a “technical” consultant and an “expert” included analyzing research summaries and professional advisories, providing “individual feedback” on the government’s initial recommendations, “reviewing” the CDC-OPA staff’s “core recommendations,” giving her expert “opinion,” and then approving the recommendations.

No wonder President Obama’s Press Secretary came to the immediate defense of Planned Parenthood, proclaiming that the abortion giant and peddler of aborted babies’ organs follows “the highest ethical guidelines.” Who helped write the guidelines?

We now know what her expert opinions are. We know the types of things she recommends – how to skirt the Partial Birth Abortion Ban, how to “crush” babies, and how to perform abortions in ways that helps their bottom line by selling the organs of dead babies, instead of putting the health of the mother and her child first.

This is more than outrageous. This is unthinkable. This is inhuman. This is evil.

We’re taking action, working with Members of Congress to stop the horror and defend life.

We must defund Planned Parenthood. Governments at every level must investigate them thoroughly. The Senate must pass the late-term abortion ban. And Congress must reform our laws and close the loopholes that Planned Parenthood exploits in their organ harvesting practices.
