How likely is this to be true? These articles are claiming that Planned Parenthood sells fetus body parts for cash.

1 Answer

Answer :

That slimy little piece is just crawling with oily clues regarding its credibility, starting at the top with the 2 outfits Center for Medical Progress and Live Action News. The thing that puzzles me most about this sort of nonsense is that there exists a substantial audience of dimwits willing to accept it as gospel. Ask yourself whether the so called liberal bias of the mainstream media would prevent the reporting of a high profile official in Planned Parenthood trafficking body parts from unborn fetuses. Or even better, that pro abortion government agencies would shun the arrest and conviction of said official. The piece is beyond misinformation. It’s insulting. It assumes its readers are fools, and in this assumption, well—“some of the people all of the time”
