    your own quote says "they want to break even" not that they do. If you've suddenly become a big fan of basic market unsustainability and paying for costs with money, please let the world know.

    I mean, every take on this video has been grapsing at thin straws and trying to warp them into something they're not so I'm not sure why the next ones will be any better?

    (here's a question, if they were, why are they not in the court system instead of the blogosphere?)

    $30 - $100 per sample? Dude, that's not a $5000k kidney. Are you serious?

    It seems reasonable to charge that amount to cover the costs of having to get this tissue to whomever. If they don't charge then who pays the cost? Obviously you don't want the taxpayer to right?

    I just don't get what you are complaining about. $30 isn't a financial incentive when you are using it to cover costs and is perfectly legal.

    And just in case Commodore misses this...


    Though the new investigation claims Planned Parenthood is profiting off the sale of fetal remains, Nucatola repeatedly emphasizes “tissue donation” and pushes back on the idea that her organization is selling anything. In the longer version of the raw video footage — which includes more than 150 additional minutes that didn’t make it into the final nine-minute version — there’s one instance when she says quite directly, “Nobody should be ‘selling’ tissue. That’s just not the goal here.”


    or given the style of this thread

    Bottom line, no one (pro choice folks too) can defend this ****ty CEO. First of all, dumb b**** was secretly recorded and taped, never caught on. Secondly, with her cavalier approach and speech, she literally provided all of the ammo to destroy her own organization. Also, she willingly provided internal business info related to agreements/disagreements within her own leadership. Complete incompetence.

    Oddly enough, as abortion rates go down (probably because more and more people are recognizing the inhumanity of this grisly act), there is a greater need by abortion clinics to increase the "donation" amounts and organ reaping in order to maintain their profit levels.

    BTW, you obviously know little about mania. Mania has nothing to do with an opinion that conflicts with yours.

    Say, how's your dog doing? Still safe from marauding bands of poors looking to put meat on the table, I hope?

    He's doing well except for a skin rash that is puzzling his vet. However, it does make him less palatable.

    Probably not. More likely a result of greater access to contraception and education, which Republicans repeatedly try to limit.

    "Now, however, it turns out that the anti-abortion group or their intermediaries had given the tape to at least two House Republicans two weeks ago—and those Republicans didn't find it fit to mention that they have apparently been orchestrating their conspicuous public outrage with the video's producers. One of those House Republicans, Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA), was so flummoxed when asked to explain this discrepancy that he apparently tried to Jedi himself out of the situation."

    Shocker! Republicans were only pretending to be shocked by 'shocking' Planned Parenthood video

    There's probably going to be a wave of spite-abortions now!

    If they are breaking even they aren't trying to maintain any profit level - because there is no profit that is being made now. Except you blatantly ignore that and put forth lies that you know are not true by even writing "profit margin". What profit margin are you talking about? None. There is no evidence of any profit margin. But no, you make it up anyway because you don't mind playing loose with the facts. You don't care about the truth.

    People who make things up to get what they want - people who are telling these sorts of lies - to me they are unethical people. I hope you apologize for that - not to me, but to yourself.

    This thread is yet another example of you rather live in a fake world so you can hold your views than to face reality.

    Exactly. This is a false-flag "rally the base" piece of propaganda meant for election season.

    Saw the video; haven't read this thread.

    My two cents:

    Most (non-medical) people would be horrified and/or grossed out and/or call us callous/uncaring/etc. simply by listening to a group of nurses talk about their jobs over dinner. I've been out with co-workers and gotten dirty looks plenty of times when we forget we're out in public and regular people are eating at the tables next to us and aren't trying to hear about the 30-min code and crunching ribs and pressure ulcers and traumas and bodily fluids and body parts and smelly-ass hobos projectile vomiting everywhere while simultaneously sh!tting on the floor.

    In other words, this is how people in the medical field speak to one another. Nothing to see here.

    We are all products of conception. But some of us get murdered in the womb.

    My wife works for a hospice company and many would be dumbstruck at what she deals with on a daily basis.

    The sad part is, even though the PP employee is talking in the way she would with any medical professional, they still had to selectively edit in order to twist this conversation enough to activate the Faux "News" outrage machine.

    Liars gotta lie, I suppose.
