The "kind-hearted" smiling, reassuring Clintons
told us abortion would be "safe, legal and rare."

============================================

The Clintons "forgot" to mention opening
the gates to the trafficking in baby body parts.

(1999 EXCERPT--WND.COM). Then-Pres Clinton is credited w/ opening up the market in fetal body parts. Since Clinton signed the National Institutes of Health Revitalization Act of 1993, “fetal-tissue research” has expanded into a federally subsidized multi-million dollar industry of selling human spare parts salvaged from abortions.

For example, the NIH budgeted $21 million in fiscal year 1999 for grants and awards for fetal tissue research. At the University of Washington, the NIH subsidizes the central laboratory for human embryology.

According to a lab notice obtained by WorldNetDaily, it “can supply tissue from normal or abnormal embryos and fetuses of desired gestational ages between 40 days to term. Specimens are obtained within minutes of passage, and tissues are aseptically identified, staged, and immediately processed according to the requirements of individual investigators.” The notice is signed by Alan G. Fantel of the department of pediatrics.

At the time, two organizations that profited from this growth industry were (the now defunct) Opening Lines, a business formerly located in West Frankfort, Illinois...... and Anatomic Gift Foundation, headquartered in Laurel, Maryland.

Opening Lines gives credit to President Clinton for opening up the lucrative business in fetal tissue trade.

According to Opening Lines, on January 22, 1993, Clinton lifted the moratorium on federal funding. “This action created a great demand for fetal tissue and has made possible the development of treatments for individuals afflicted with serious diseases and disorders,” says the sales brochure.

Both companies served as wholesalers for the marketing of baby body parts to researchers, drug companies, hospitals and universities. These groups harvest the parts from abortion clinics and ship them to their customers.

Opening Lines provides fetal tissue researchers with a “fee for service schedule,” which gives prices for each body part. For example, Opening Lines charged:

<><> $150 for a spinal column;

<><> $400 for an intact embryonic cadaver;

<><>$75 for 8-week-old baby's eyeballs (40% discount for a single eye);

<><>$150 for two arms or legs; and,

<><> $100 for the skin of a 12-week-old baby.

(Mmmmmm.... looks like they "forgot" to post the price of baby skin lampshades.)

=====================================================

Now, more then ever---it is imperative that we determine whether the companies trafficing in baby body parts, their principles, subsidiaries, tangenital companies, and so on......contributed to:

<><> the Clinton Foundation

<><> and/or The Clinton Foundation's multiple offshoots.

<><> Hillary Clinton's present campaign

<><> Hillary Clinton's previous campaigns

<><> Bill Clinton's campaigns.

AND whether the billionaire Clintons have a financial interest in companies selling baby body parts.

I don’t know lightning doesn’t strike, or a big hole swallow into the depths of hell, this evil man for daring to ask God’s blessing upon the sadistic murder of babies. One day...

Commercial Markets Created by Abortion: Profiting from the Fetal Distribution Chain To compute the wholesalers monthly net profit, gross revenue received from the researchers, payment for specific fetal parts and tissues harvested was based on a price list called “Fee for Service Schedule” published by wholesaler Opening Lines, a Division of Consultative and Diagnostic Pathology, Inc.

The fee schedule purports to estimate the reimbursable cost allocable to retrieving a particular body part, organ or tissue. If the laws against trafficking were being observed, the fees for providing the fetal parts ordered should essentially correspond to the wholesaler?s costs of $6,700 computed above.

According to logs detailing tissue shipments, 155 specimens were shipped in a representative month. These specimens included:

<><> 47 livers,

<><> 11 liver fragments,

<><>7 brains,

<><>21 eyes,

<><> 8 thymuses,

<><> 23 legs,

<><> 14 pancreases,

<><> 14 lungs,

<><> 6 arms,

<><> 1 kidney/adrenal gland, and,

<><> 3 intact specimens for purposes of securing the blood.

When priced out according to the “Fee for Service Schedule,” the shipment of parts for the month generated gross revenues of between $18,700 and $24,700, depending upon whether the parts were shipped fresh or frozen.

Some sample prices for individual body parts from the above-referenced schedule are as follows:

<><> liver $150,

<><> pancreas $100,

<>><>thymus $100,

<><> kidney $125,

<><> lungs and heart block $150,

<><> brain $999,

<><> spinal cord $325,

<><> bone morrow $350,

<><> eyes $75,

<><> gonads $550,

<><> intact cadaver $400,

<><> intact trunk with/without limbs $500,

<><> limbs (at least 2) $150.

There will be 12 videos in all. Hopefully, they will release the most damaging one before the vote, i.e., the racially charged one.

Butchering babies IS NOT "basic health care services" for women. Bitch!

No, but it is a tenet of the Democrat religion.

Taking planned parenthood funding away does not equal removing health care from women who need it.

The only thing they do besides abortions is pregnancy testing and birth control. That is it. The government does not owe people birth control. That is ridiculous. Do not have sex. If you are raped, go to the police. After the report of rape, the government can help. If it wasn’t rape, keep your panties on.

This is all a bit phony. This isn’t a bill that will get past Obama’s desk if it even gets out of congress. The way to de-fund it is to not fund it in the first place. PP was as much a horror six months ago when they were doing the budget as it is now, but they funded it anyway without blinking an eye. And next budget year, they’ll fund it and Obamacare again.

You’ll notice the Dems don’t have any trouble filibustering something they care about. What are Repubs prepared to fight for? Nothing? Nothing.

Most of the speeches on the floor of either house are to empty seats. No one hears the arguments being made from with side. This is why nothing gets accomplished. If all members were forced to sit an listen, may, just maybe, there would be less discussion and more action.

I have something good to report today. My drive took me past a Planned Parenthood building off the 22 Freeway in Tustin or Orange, right there at the end of the 22 at the border of those two cities in Orange County, CA. There were three blocks of people protesting outside. When I first saw some, I figured it was some workers striking somewhere. Then I saw all the strollers, and the signs with pictures on them. As I drove past, I saw more and more people walking to join the throng.

It brought tears to my eyes. Gd bless all the people who are coming out to protest what is being done to those innocent ones.

Harry Reid: http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/images/TopHeader.gif

Senator Harry Reid’s Ethical Scandals

Over the course of his political career, Reid has been implicated in several serious ethics scandals: •In a 1998 real estate deal engineered by Jay Brown (a former casino lawyer and a longtime friend of Reid), the senator purchased two undeveloped residential-property lots on Las Vegas’ rapidly growing outskirts for approximately $400,000. Reid bought one of the parcels on his own, and the second one jointly with Brown. One of the sellers was a developer who was benefiting from a government land swap supported by Reid. In 2001 Reid sold both of his lots for $400,000 to a limited liability corporation created by Jay Brown, but he never disclosed the sale on his annual public ethics report. Nor did he inform Congress that he held any stake in Brown’s company. As far as Congress knew, Reid was still the owner of the two lots he had purchased three years earlier.

In 2004 Brown’s company, having negotiated with local officials to rezone the property for a shopping center, sold the land to other developers in a deal that earned Reid $1.1 million — a $700,000 profit on his initial investment. Reid falsely reported the transaction to Congress as a personal land sale.

•In 2001 Reid paid cash for a $750,000 condominium at the Washington, D.C. Ritz-Carlton where he resides. When he subsequently gave Christmas bonuses (in 2002, 2004, and 2005) to the doorman and other support staff at his building, he used $3,300 in campaign donations rather than his own separate funds — in contravention of federal election law. Reid’s campaign falsely listed the bonuses as campaign “salary” expenditures for two of the years in question, and as a “contribution” for the other year. When news of Reid’s misappropriation of campaign funds became public in 2006, the senator’s office said the listing as salary had been a “clerical error.” Added Reid: “I am reimbursing the campaign from my own pocket to prevent this issue from being used in the current campaign season to deflect attention from Republican failures.”

•In a $286 billion federal transportation bill passed by Congress in 2005, Reid secured $300 million in earmarks for projects in his home state, including $18 million to fund the construction of a bridge spanning the Colorado River. On the Arizona side of that bridge, Reid owned 160 acres of undeveloped land around which many new housing units were being built. Noting that the new bridge would cause the value of Reid’s property to skyrocket, Norman Ornstein, co-author of a book that examines earmarking, said: “It’s a really bad idea for lawmakers to earmark projects when they have a financial interest that could in any way be affected by it.” Steve Ellis, vice president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, noted: “Unwittingly, the taxpayer may have helped inflate the value” of Reid’s land.

•Between 2002 and 2006, Reid intervened to gain monumental government concessions on behalf of a powerful Nevada land developer, Harvey Whittemore, who wished to build thousands of homes and numerous golf courses on 43,000 acres of barren land in an area called Coyote Springs, an hour northeast of Las Vegas. This land had a number of federal restrictions on its use: One-fourth of it was off-limits to developers because of federal protections for an “endangered” species of desert tortoise that dwelt there; another one-fourth was government-owned and was subject to a federal power-line right of way; and the territory overall was rife with streams and washes that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had designated as crucial to the health of the desert’s ecosystem, and was therefore generally off-limits to construction.

Thanks to Senator Reid’s intercession, however, the Bureau of Land Management agreed to relocate the tortoises to an adjacent federal preserve, thereby opening that portion of Coyote Springs to developers.

In 2002 Reid inserted some obscure provisions into a land-management bill that relocated the aforementioned power corridor, thereby apparently freeing Whittemore to build on the 10,500-acre parcel he coveted. But the Senate’s Energy and Natural Resources Committee balked at the deal, and Reid in turn negotiated an alternate arrangement where Whittemore was permitted to purchase the land at a fair market rate while the government relocated the corridor.

Finally, in 2005 Reid and fellow Nevada Senator John Ensign used their influence with the EPA to eliminate the environmental-impact obstacle.

In return for Reid’s efforts, Whittemore gave tens of thousands of dollars to the senator’s political campaigns and to his leadership fund (which Reid used to help bankroll the campaigns of fellow Democrats). In addition, Whittemore gave $5,000 to each of Reid’s two sons, to finance their efforts to win local political offices. The developer also hired one of those sons as his personal lawyer to represent him in his dealings with federal officials.

•Between 2001 and 2004, Reid wrote at least four letters pressing the Bush administration to take action on certain issues of importance to Indian tribes that were clients of the lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Abramoff, whose staff was in regular contact with Reid’s office, lobbied on behalf of tribes involved in the gambling casino industry; he would later be convicted in federal court for defrauding those tribes. Each time Reid wrote a letter on behalf of the Indian tribes, he collected donations from Abramoff and his lobbying partners and clients around the same time period. All told, these donations totaled nearly $68,000. Also between 2001 and 2004, Reid received more than $50,000 directly from four Indian tribes that were clients of Abramoff.

This statue should be placed in the foyer of all Planned Parenthood locations.

This statue should be placed at the entrance of the US House of Representatives and the Senate.

This statue should be placed in the White House just beyond the front door.

That statue should be left in those locations until these atrocities end.

I apologize for posting an image of this statue. it hurts me to look at it, but I believe it represents those institutions I described.

We have to find a way to stop this.

This if successful may end Planned Parent Hoods abortion mills BUT what about the mindset of the women who abort their children

They weren’t forced at gun point

The way things are going they may sue because they didn’t get any of the profits
