Pithy Review of Fiorina on Planned Parenthood: “YOU LIE!”

 Posted by at 8:20 am  Politics

I’m channeling my best Rep. Joe Wilson (R-Dumbfukistan) to borrow his “YOU LIE!” scream – only this time it’s True.

We all recall the grisly rant of Carly Fiorina’s (R – Failed CEOs) last Wednesday during the GOP debate.  She, along with the rest of the misogynist republicans, are clearly out to destroy Planned Parenthood – even if it takes outright lies.  So just for a reference record, I want to archive a few Links to document that what Fiorina claims she saw and heard on a video does NOT exist:

“No video has surfaced showing the scene Fiorina describes taking place inside a Planned Parenthood facility.”

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/wp/2015/09/17/fact-checking-the-second-round-of-gop-debates/

“… the scene Fiorina “dares” others to watch is not present in any of the Planned Parenthood videos.”

http://www.factcheck.org/2015/09/factchecking-the-cnn-republican-debate/

There is nothing in the videos made by CMP, either in the edited or full-length versions, that has anything approaching images of legs kicking or hearts beating.* 

http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2015/09/16/watch_carly_fiorina_s_lurid_rant_about_abortion_and_planned_parenthood_at.html

“That video relies solely on the interview and does not include footage to support her claims.”

http://www.politico.com/agenda/story/2015/09/wrongometer-cnn-gop-debate-000246

“But the things Fiorina describes — the legs kicking, the intact "fully formed fetus," the heart beating, the remarks about having to "harvest its brain" — are pure fiction.”

http://www.vox.com/2015/9/16/9342165/carly-fiorina-planned-parenthood

“What she says happens in the Planned Parenthood video simply does not exist and she’s pandering to the extremist element of the Republican Party.”

http://reverbpress.com/politics/fiorina-uses-planned-parenthood-hoax-video-shock-value/

“… that what she chose to say in that moment is false.”

Take home message to Fiorina:

Given your history, if you REALLY want to destroy Planned Parenthood, you should become its CEO.

    Carly destroyed HP and thousands of jobs and the lives of the people who held those jobs.  Her failed CA Senate campaign was solely her own money (perhaps what HP paid her to leave).  Her history is akin to the Mongolian Deathworm and that impact would be disastrous for any organization, including in the government, to allow her to even touch much less lead…

      Except that no one has proved that the Mongolian Death Worm actually exists, and Carly definitely does, alas.  Although since we have our very own Sasquatch right here, maybe the death worm does exist.  Maybe it is Carly!

    Carly has a "gender"… OMG!

    Caught in a fib, Fiorina refuses to acknowledge misstep

    Carly certainly did lie and continues to do so. No doubt about it at all! 
    Carly says that she has seen the tapes. Let her prove it by showing us those tapes she claims she has seen. Where are those tapes?

    See and read the links submitted in PP. 

    To hear what Carly actually said in the second debate, watch Carly in the last portion of this YouTube video at 4:28:

    Last week, shortly after the second Klown debate, there was a survey on who was the scariest Klown and answered that Carly Fiorina was! EEK & EEP!

    Thanks for posting this, Lynn and Nameless!

    The trouble with people like Carly Fiorina is not so much her shameless lying – we all know she's lying and it's so easily to debunk these lies – but because the Republican rabid base wants to hear these lies so that they then can say they are true. They need to hear these lies so they can feel justified in their hatred of abortions/Muslims/black people/LGBT people/libruls… the list is endless and there is a lie for every item on it.

    Ian Reifowitz has offered to shoot a video for Carly – IF she's willing – http://www.dailykos.com/story/2015/09/20/1423175/-Here-are-some-videos-I-dare-Carly-Fiorina-to-watch

    Now that would be something to see.

      Wouldn't it though!  I wonder if any of the rabid Republican base are willing to think for themselves?  Fiorina is playing to the lowest common denominator (to borrow a mathematics term) and will do ANYTHING to win the prize . . . the White House.  No previous elected office, multiple business failures, multiple lies (a serial liar) . . . and SHE wants to be POTUS???  I don't think so!

    And Carly also broke the law at HP doing business with Iran:
