The Story of Carly Fiorina and the Planned Parenthood Videos

It's amazing how focused the media has become on whether or not Carly Fiorina is correctly describing what is shown in the Planned Parenthood videos.  Is the fetus shown in the video one that came from an abortion at Planned Parenthood or is it stock footage that was inserted into the video?  That's the big issue according to media giants like Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd.  He spent about a third of his interview with Fiorina on this "issue" on Sunday.

Think about that.  Planned Parenthood "harvests" body parts from aborted babies.  There is no denial of that fact, nor could there be since there is ample video of many Planned Parenthood officials discussing the practice.  These same officials also discuss how often babies are born alive after an abortion and have to be either left to die or killed.  Again, this is undeniable.  For Chuck Todd, however, the story is not Planned Parenthood's conduct of killing babies born alive, but rather whether the video was correctly described by Fiorina.  Is this for real?

Sadly, the answer to the question is clearly yes.  The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act is pending in the House at the moment.  This bill would require doctors to give aid to babies born alive after an abortion.  These are live children after all.  The bill does nothing more than this, but it is opposed by nearly every Democrat in the House and president Obama has promised to veto the measure should it be enacted by both the House and Senate.  Isn't that more newsworthy than whether or not the footage in the videos is stock footage or actual footage taken at Planned Parenthood?  For the left, the answer is a clear NO.
