<em>Is Anybody There?</em>: Another Ugly Truth Comes Out About Planned Parenthood

On 26 April 2012 I reported that it looked like a new Live Action investigation was in the works & this time it would look at how Planned Parenthood approves of & abets in sex-selection abortions. At that time I pointed out how the lies & spin by the Pro-aborts had begun in a preemtive strike to try & reduce the damage. I also pointed out how there was already evidence Planned Parenthood was on board with the idea of sex selection abortions & opposed any legistation banning them.

This morning Live Action went public with a new undercover vide. This one showed a "Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Austin, TX encouraging a woman to obtain a late-term abortion because she was purportedly carrying a girl and wanted to have a boy." According to Live Action "The video is first in a new series titled “Gendercide: Sex-Selection in America,” exposing the practice of sex-selective abortion in the United States and how Planned Parenthood and the rest of the abortion industry facilitate the selective elimination of baby girls in the womb."

So what was Planned Parenthood's response to the truth getting out? It fires the woman in the video & all but admits it does sex selection abortions. In a statement issued by Planned Parenthood they claim the whole thing is another hoax by Live Action & that they have only released "edited videotapes to promote false claims about our organization and patient services. In highly unusual and scripted scenarios, hoax patients sought services related to sex selection." The big problem with this claim is that Live Action has released the complete, unedited video as well as a transcript that can be viewed at www .ProtectOurGirls .com. They are a hub of research & information on sex-selective abortions.

Additionally PP claims that it fired the woman in the video. Just like in the past, they fired the worker & supposedly scheduled retraining for the rest of the staff. (IMHO the retraining is how to avoid being caught.) A Planned Parenthood spokeswoman told The Huffington Post on Tuesday the entry level staffer in the video “did not follow our protocol” for dealing with “a highly unusual patient scenario.” This raises an interesting question, what is the proper protocol for providing a sex selection abortion? Apparently there is one if she violated it. & the fact that more videos are to come from Live Action shows that this isn't an "highly unusual patient scenario" like Planned Parenthood claims.

The PP statement goes on to show it's willingness to lie & present themselves as something totally different then they really are. The statement is another of their smoke & mirror attempts to make it look like women, not profits from abortion, are what motivates Planned Parenthood. They statement takes 2 paragraphs to attack gender bias & racism (another lie since it has been proven time & time again that PP supports sangar's racist, eugenics agenda).

Part of the statement says "The world’s leading women’s health and rights organizations, including the World Health Organization, do not believe that curtailing access to abortion services is a legitimate means of addressing sex selection, and have made clear that gender bias can only be resolved by addressing the underlying conditions that lead to it." & that PP supports this. Given that WHO supports abortion like PP, that it would decry sex selection while allowing it to go on under the guise of it limiting access to abortion services shows that it really doesn't disapprove of them. After all, how does banning sex selection abortions limit access to those who they claim need them for legitimate reasons? Only if sex selection is a legitimate reasion in their minds would they oppose access.

Meanwhile The House of Representatives is scheduled to debate the "Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act.", H.R. 3541, on Wednesday, May 30, 2012, at about 2:30 PM EDT, and to vote on the bill at about 7:00 PM EDT. National Right to Life is urging people to call their representative in the House in support of the Bill.
