Planned Parenthood apologizes for tone of video in which they admitted to selling aborted baby organs

 Earlier this week a video surfaced which showed a Planned Parenthood official callously talking about selling the organs of babies which were aborted to fetal tissue collection organizations for research. In addition to this practice in general, which might be a violation of federal law, what bothered me almost as much was the attitude of the Planned Parenthood official as she discussed selling the organs in such a cold-hearted and casual manner as she ate her salad and drank her wine.

  It was almost as if she did not consider the recently deceased babies to have been  lives now lost (or more accurately; taken) and of course she probably did not because we have been told over and over again that a fetus is not a person unless the mother decides it is. This raises the still as of yet unanswered question of how can these unborn babies can have organs which are usable to research if they were not human life in the first place. The life itself is not valuable however apparently the organs are…

  Today Planned Parenthood apologized for the tone of the video. Here is more:

“Our top priority is the compassionate care that we provide. In the video one of our staff members speaks in a way that does not reflect that compassion, this is unacceptable and I personally apologize for the staff member’s tone and statements,” Richards said.

  Of course the compassionate care only extends to the mothers–or should I say the women who are no longer mothers–and not to the babies, but I digress.

  Planned Parenthood claims they are not making any money from the collection of organs, and maybe they are not, but this is still troubling because in my opinion this strikes at the moral fiber of the nation. When you are talking about deciding which organs to crush and which ones to leave intact during an abortion, and when you admit to skirting federal partial-birth abortion bans by admitting you simply lie about the intention of the procedure, it does call into question the morals and the ethics of the whole organization.
