   Culling Babies For Cash to All   
   Planned Parenthood Defender & Donation R

   Hillary will take the money because the babies are already dead   
   and who cares about dead things anyway.   
      
   Hillary Clinton has staunchly defended Planned Parenthood in the   
   wake of recently released videos that an anti-abortion group   
   claims to show employees with the organization discussing the   
   sale of aborted fetal tissue.   
      
   But, in a new interview, she calls the graphic videos   
   “disturbing” and says there should be a national investigation   
   into that practice.   
      
   “I have seen pictures from them and obviously find them   
   disturbing,” the Democratic presidential candidate told the New   
   Hampshire Union Leader on Tuesday in regards to the videos,   
   which were released by the anti-abortion group Center for   
   Medical Progress. “Planned Parenthood is answering questions and   
   will continue to answer questions.”   
      
   Clinton, however, did not waiver in her overall support of the   
   organization, and said there are two points to make: “One,   
   Planned Parenthood for more than a century has done a lot of   
   really good work for women: cancer screenings, family planning,   
   all kinds of health services. And this raises not questions   
   about Planned Parenthood so much as it raises questions about   
   the whole process, that is, not just involving Planned   
   Parenthood, but many institutions in our country.”   
      
   Clinton added that if there’s going to be a congressional   
   inquiry into the videos, “it should look at everything,” and not   
   just one organization.   
      
   Clinton made the remark on the same day the Center for Medical   
   Progress released a third video which it says shows the   
   harvesting of fetal tissue, as well as current and former   
   Planned Parenthood employees discussing the procedures and   
   pricing.   
      
   Several Republicans -- including many GOP presidential   
   candidates -- have cited these videos as a reason why Planned   
   Parenthood should lose federal funding. And Republican   
   presidential candidate Rand Paul has called for Clinton to   
   return the group’s donations to her campaign.   
      
   In response to the claims of illegal behavior in the video,   
   Planned Parenthood has asserted that all of its actions are   
   legal as well as ethical.   
      
   In addition, the organization said the video was “heavily   
   edited,” stating that “similar false accusations have been put   
   forth by opponents of abortion services for decades.” “Planned   
   Parenthood has broken no laws," Cecile Richards, the president   
   of the non-profit, said on ABC News’ "This Week." "We have the   
   highest standards. The care and health care and safety of our   
   patients is our most important priority."   
      
   Clinton, who is pro-choice, has vowed to defend Planned   
   Parenthood over the weekend, even adding in a new line to her   
   campaign stump speech.   
      
   “I will defend a woman’s right to choose,” Clinton said in Iowa   
   and New Hampshire this week, “and I will defend Planned   
   Parenthood."
