Carly Fiorina, Chuck Todd clash over Planned Parenthood claims

Carly Fiorina on Sunday defended her assertion that an undercover sting video shows Planned Parenthood officials keeping a “fully formed fetus” alive “to harvest its brain.” At the second Republican presidential debate earlier this month, one of Fiorina’s strongest moments came when she described a gruesome scene from one of the controversial undercover videos.

 

"A fully-formed fetus on the table, its heart beating, its legs kicking, while someone says, 'We have to keep it alive to harvest its brain’,” Fiorina said at the time. Fiorina’s description of the scene, and her supporting super-PAC’s subsequent use of it in an campaign ad, have been under fire, as media fact checkers and Planned Parenthood have said it was cobbled together using misleading and unrelated footage.

 

“Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd on Sunday asked Fiorina to acknowledge this. “There is no evidence that the scene you described exists,” Todd said. “Are you willing now to concede that you exaggerated that scene?” “No, not at all,” Fiorina responded. “That scene absolutely does exist. And that voice saying what I said they were saying, ‘We're going to keep it alive to harvest its brain,’ exists as well’.”

Carly Fiorina eviscerates Planned Parenthood protester, as other protesters threw condoms.

 

The headline at most websites covering Carly Fiorina’s campaign today is that Planned Parenthood protesters threw condoms at Fiorina, via ABC13 in Iowa:

 

Planned Parenthood protesters threw condoms at Carly Fiorina today while she campaigned at a tailgate party for the Iowa Hawkeyes.

 

The protesters, some of whom were affiliated with the women’s health group and others who were supporters, were dressed in pink and waved pink pom-poms as they followed the Republican presidential candidate around the tailgate, chanting “Carly Fiorina offsides for telling lies” and “women are watching and we vote.”

 

Expect to see more such Code Pink-style tactics against Fiorina.

 

But to me the more interesting story is how Fiorina faced down a woman who confronted her face-to-face, via CNN:

 

On Saturday, activist and 40-year Planned Parenthood patient Cindy Shireman, 54, challenged Fiorina for her comments about the organization.

Well she certainly is getting all the right enemies. When This happens to a candidate...you're doing something right.

She is good at this. As we've already said, it sure would be fun to see her debate Hillary. Or anyone on the Democrat side for that matter.
