A new video is making the rounds which purports to show a Planned Parenthood head talking to what she thought was a fetal tissue collection company in which she talks about how the agency is selling aborted body parts and organs. I do not know if this video is legitimate and I hope and pray that it is not because it is absolutely disgusting if this is true.
Here is the video:
Notice how casual she is as she eats her salad and drinks her wine while she talks about how the agency can determine which parts of the baby’s body they can crush depending on which organs the company they are doing business with wants? How someone can be so cold is beyond me!
She also talks about how if the company wants the head they will actually turn the baby around so that it is in a breech position before performing the abortion. Now, isn’t it possible doing something like this could put the life of the mother at risk? It would seem so to me but I do not know.
In another part of the video she explains how they can skirt partial-birth abortion laws be claiming the end result (abortion) was not intended.
Supporters would probably argue that as long as the baby is being aborted anyway why not sell the body parts and organs for medical research so some good can come from the decision to end a life but I would ask this one stupid question: if an unborn fetus is not a person than what good are the organs?
Isn’t this more or less an admission that an unborn baby is a person?
Again, I honestly hope this video is a hoax because I do not want to think we can stoop this low as a society. In my opinion this goes beyond being either pro-life or pro-choice because it strikes at the very soul of our nation.

Scott Walker announces bid for the Presidency in 2016
This comes as no surprise–especially after he accidentally Tweeted his intentions last weekend–but today Scott Walker made his bid for the Presidency in 2016 official.
Scott Walker has proven he can win a tough race as he managed to win the Governorship in a blue state but what is most impressive about him is that once he won he actually did what he said he would do. You can disagree with what he did as Governor but you have to at least admire the fact that he did not back down in his state after he won election, even as he was facing a recall election. At least we know he will try to do what he says he will unlike the establishment Republicans who merely talk a good game while they are running for office but immediately revert back to their wishy-washy selves after the election is over.
My mind is not made up about Scott Walker yet and I have to admit his shifting stance on illegal immigration has me worried because I do not know where he stands on this issue, but I will listen to what he has to say.

Brit Hume on Donald Trump: his ‘chickens will come home to roost’ when people ‘realize he hasn’t long been a Republican’
Donald Trump has been enjoying quite a bit of success since he announced his candidacy for the Presidency in 2016, and some polls actually show him tied with Jeb Bush. I have been trying to warn people that Donald Trump is not a true Republican but rather a Hegelian Dialectic change agent who most likely is working for the Democratic party. If you have not considered this possibility I would suggest you read what I wrote in this post. (There is also a link in that post to a previous post I wrote about this possibility.)
Earlier today on Fox News Sunday Brit Hume made some comments which I think back up my theory, although this is not what he was implying.
Here is what he had to say:
“There’s a segment of the Republican electorate that’s been present for some time that’s angry with GOP leadership in congress and on the campaign trail than it is with Democrats at least in terms of what you hear these people saying. Donald Trump is captivated them for the moment. And by doing so, he’s basically eclipsed Sen. Ted Cruz, the previous horse. He will have a run. I think the chickens will come home to roost. People will realize he hasn’t long been a Republican. For many years he gave more money to Democrats, praised Hillary Clinton, said that Mitt Romney was too mean on immigration for taking positions weaker than the one that he’s taken now and over time his moment will fade. It will take a while. He’s got a lot of money. He could be a third-party threat.”
And here is the video:
Last week Hillary Clinton gave an interview to CNN–which is considered to be friendly territory–in which she claimed that she “never had a subpoena” in regards to her emails at the time she decided to destroy them. However that myth was quickly dispelled by Trey Gowdy who subsequently released a subpoena showing she was lying.
Hillary Clinton’s supporters are claiming that she is technically correct because she deleted these emails before the subpoena Trey Gowdy released was issued, however that is also not true because she actually received two additional subpoenas before she deleted the emails, as well as letters from the Congress which in effect were “do not destroy” notices before she destroyed the emails.
Earlier today the woman who conducted that interview, Brianna Keilar, appeared on another CNN program and was asked about her interview with Hillary Clinton. During this segment she admitted that Hillary Clinton was “technically incorrect” in regards to her emails, stating that if her defense is that she “wiped my server but it was when I wasn’t under a subpoena I don’t know that you are really on some tremendous moral high ground.”
She also stated that she was surprised Hillary Clinton did not show a little more contrition during the interview on this and the “trust” issue and it is with that statement that I take an affront to because I was not surprised at all. In fact I would have been surprised if Hillary Clinton did show a little contrition because she feels she is above the law and is not answerable to anyone and this statement shows me that people in the media, such as Brianna Keilar, really do not understand what Hillary Clinton is about. But maybe now they are learning she is nothing but an elitist politician who cares only about gaining power by whatever means necessary…

Open thread for Sunday, July 12th: ‘Here Without You’
Here is the open thread for Sunday, July 12th. Please feel free to post links to interesting articles and to discuss whatever issues arise during the course of the day. Nothing is off-topic here.
Last week we covered another 8 stories, did you miss any of them? If so there is an easy way to make sure it does not happen again. I understand that all of you are busy and cannot always find the time to check the blog for updates so why not subscribe to America’s Watchtower and receive email updates whenever I write a new post? That is the easiest way to follow the blog to ensure you never miss another post.
In addition to subscribing you can also follow America’s Watchtower on Facebook and Twitter by clicking the links on the right. But you will get more than that for I often post links to articles I probably will not be writing about so it is a great way to keep up with what is happening.
The Twitter widget in the sidebar is fully interactive. This widget updates my tweets in real time and allows you to respond to or retweet my tweets right from the blog. It also allows you to tweet me right from America’s Watchtower. How cool is that! If you do not have a Twitter account what better reason do you need to sign up for one!
Before I get to the musical selection of the week I wanted to share a little exciting news with all of you: last week America’s Watchtower was honored by Cry and Howl with a 2015 Top Twenty Conservative Blog Award! Cry and Howl is a great blog which you should all check out and I would like to publicly say thank you for the honor.
This award does not belong to me alone, it also belongs to all of you. There have been many times when I have wondered if I should keep on going because at times it gets frustrating to see that all of the hard work is not paying off with the political results we all hope to see. However it is because of the readers who keep coming here day in and day out that I have made it through the dark days and I would like to thank each and every one of you for being so loyal.
The reason I selected “Here Without You” by 3 Doors Down for the musical selection this week is because today I was scheduled to jump in the company van and haul it 11 hours to Virginia to start a week long project far away from home. The project has been delayed until at least Tuesday (and I may end up being away for two weeks) and it is possible I will not be leaving until next weekend, but I will be going at some point.
Regular readers know how important my family is to me and to be away from them for a week or more is not easy for me, I will miss them dearly. I dedicate this song to my wife Lauri–she is my love, my life, my best friend, my rock, and my foundation.
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still on my lonely mind.
I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time.
I’m here without you baby
But you’re still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl, it’s only you and me.
Everything I know, and anywhere I go,
It gets hard but it won’t take away my love.
There is quite a bit of work to be done when I do get out there and I may be working long hours to meet the schedule so I am not sure how regular my posting will be when I am gone but I will still try to post as often as possible.
With Bernie Sanders enjoying a surge in popularity among Democratic voters his candidacy might have hit a snag in New Hampshire. It is now being questioned whether or not he will be eligible to run in the State’s Democratic primary because he is not a Democrat but rather an Independent.
In New Hampshire you actually have to be a member of the party for which you seek the nomination and Bernie Sanders is not a Democrat–a little fact he is very proud of, at least up until now…

All of the talk surrounding the Republican Presidential candidates lately has revolved around Donald Trump and some of the latest polls actually show him leading the field on a national level. This bothers the Republican establishment for obvious reasons because their chosen candidate is Jeb Bush.
While Donald Trump is getting all the headlines, and while Jeb Bush is sure to get all the establishment money, there is one candidate who quietly behind the scenes may be building a grassroots funding juggernaut and that person is my candidate of choice–the only Republican who does not seem to be a selective Constitutionalist, Rand Paul. He has raised $7 million in the last quarter alone and he has done it through grassroots fundraising.

With only three legitimate announced Democratic candidates running for President in 2016 there is plenty of room for more and the most logical, high profile name on the list of unannounced candidates might be that of Vice President Joe Biden.
But is he going to run? He has not given any indication one way or the other but it would seem as if a decision should be made in the near future if he hopes to have any chance. There seems to be some momentum gathering behind the “draft Joe Biden” movement in recent weeks.
First we read stories about his family (including the late Beau Biden) and friends urging him to run and now two Barack Obama fundraisers are getting behind the effort as well.

During CNN interview Hillary Clinton lied about not being subpoenaed by the Benghazi Committee
Hillary Clinton was interviewed by CNN last Tuesday and when she was asked about the possibility she destroyed State Department emails while they were under subpoena she told Brianna Keilar to “take a deep breath” and then went to on claim, “I never had a subpoena.”
However that is a lie pure and simple and today Trey Gowdy released the subpoena to the public, which can be seen here, and had this to say about the situation:
The House Select Committee on Benghazi today released its March 4, 2015, subpoena to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in response to her inaccurate claim she had not been subpoenaed. The committee subpoenaed Clinton directly after it became aware of her exclusive use of personal email and a server and that the State Department was not the custodian of Clinton’s official record. The State Department failed to reveal this essential information to the Benghazi Committee or any other investigation into the Benghazi terrorist attacks until days before a media outlet was going to publish the information, meaning no investigation prior to the Benghazi Committee’s had access to the Secretary of State’s communications as part of its review.
“The committee has issued several subpoenas, but I have not sought to make them public,” said committee Chairman Trey Gowdy. “I would not make this one public now, but after Secretary Clinton falsely claimed the committee did not subpoena her, I have no choice in order to correct the inaccuracy. The committee immediately subpoenaed Clinton personally after learning the full extent of her unusual email arrangement with herself, and would have done so earlier if the State Department or Clinton had been forthcoming that State did not maintain custody of her records and only Secretary Clinton herself had her records when Congress first requested them.”
If Mrs. Clinton cannot be trusted to tell the truth on an issue which can be so easily debunked as this what can she be trusted to tell the truth about…

Hillary Clinton slams the entire Republican field over Donald Trumps remarks on illegal immigrants
I have a theory as to why Donald Trump is pretending to run for President (it will become clear why I wrote he is pretending when you read the theory) and just so you know that I have not made this up on the spot in order to support what I am going to write here is part of what I wrote about Donald Trump on June 7th when the rumor first was floated be was going to jump into the race.
Donald Trump has this nasty little habit as of late: when a Presidential election nears he suddenly becomes vocal, teasing the possibility of running for President before backing down once his rather large ego is satisfied. Will he take the next step this time around or can we expect him to simply mouth off for awhile before disappearing again?
I get the feeling it is different this time. I believe he is going to announce a bid for the Presidency, but why?
Is it possible he is a Democratic Hegelian Dialectic operative seeking to injure whichever Republican emerges from the field to win the nomination to the point where he or she is so badly damaged as to ensure the Democratic nominee becomes the next President of the United States?
Simply put, I do not trust this man nor his motives because I believe his interest is in making such outrageous statements as to bring down all the Republican candidates using guilt by association. Donald Trump is running as a Republican ergo anything he says must have the support of the other Republican candidates…that will be the implication.
