I have bad news and good news. The bad news is that I've performed research which proves that the PLANNED PARENTHOOD scandal is just what we all thought it was - heavily edited video manipulated to give a FALSE IMPRESSION about Planned Parenthood. Since it worked so well the last time, certain SCOUNDRELS on the right are now trying to "pull an ACORN" on Planned Parenthood. Please recall that the ACORN VIDEO created by a certain James O'Keefe - you know the one - and which pretty much ran 24x7 on the FOX NEWS channel, was ultimately found by several STATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL to be heavily edited:
In 2009, workers at offices of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) were recorded secretly in videos by conservative activists Hannah Giles and James O'Keefe. They played a young couple who appeared to be receiving advice from these workers as to how to hide prostitution activities and avoid taxes. These videos were released on Fox News and the website BigGovernment.com from September into November 2009, generating extensive, negative publicity for ACORN. This non-profit organization had been involved for nearly 40 years in voter registration, community organizing and advocacy for low- and moderate-income people. O'Keefe said in September 2009 that he "targeted ACORN for the same reasons that the political right does: its massive voter registration drives." ...Independent investigations were made by state attorneys general of Massachusetts and California, and the U.S. Attorney of Brooklyn, New York; their reports were released beginning in December 2009 and extending through April 2010. The attorney general's office in Massachusetts and the U.S. Attorney for Brooklyn concluded that the ACORN workers had committed no criminal activity and that the videos were "heavily edited" to create a misleading impression of their activities." ...
On March 5, 2013, O'Keefe agreed to pay fired ACORN employee, Juan Carlos Vera, $100,000 and issued a public apology as part of a lawsuit settlement.
And yet, ACORN was DEFUNDED by Congress and is now part of Yesterland. ACORN's massive VOTER REGISTRATION drives, on behalf of LOW- and MODERATE-INCOME people, are no more. O'Keefe got a slap on the wrist and continues to make videos. And all the FOX WATCHERS who believe their favorite channel is "Fair and Balanced" still HAVE NO CLUE as to the truth about ACORN. They lapped up the PROPAGANDA given to them by their trusted sources on the right, and are apparently ready to swallow more.The good news is that ANYONE can perform my EASILY REPEATABLE research and see for themselves that "Carly" Fiorina (née Cara Carleton Sneed) is a tremendously capable ACTRESS and LIAR. When she recently claimed at the latest GOP DEBATE that
As regards Planned Parenthood, anyone who has watched this videotape, I dare Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama to watch these tapes. Watch a fully formed fetus on the table, it’s heart beating, it’s legs kicking while someone says we have to keep it alive to harvest its brain. she was making a BALDFACED LIE.Please continue with me under the fold and I'll show how you too can perform this research (in only three steps!)
