BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

``It is a boy,'' or, ``it is a girl''; any parent knows that phrase. It is one of the most memorable moments that they will ever have in their lives.

Recently, we heard that same phrase, but it was said by an abortion provider at Planned Parenthood, and it was as that provider--we will use that term loosely--was siphoning through the body parts of a little baby, taking hearts and lungs for sale, but noticed it is a boy.

What a perversion. What a perversion of who we are as a people. I think it calls into question this debate. This is not a debate about women's health. We are providing the same amount of money for women's health to great clinics that provide great care. It is about Planned Parenthood.

Why is it about Planned Parenthood? If you watch this debate, you have to ask, how could anybody defend the practices at Planned Parenthood, harvesting body parts? How could anyone defend that? It is an easy answer. Look in political season. Millions of dollars--millions of dollars--are spent by Planned Parenthood to elect Democrats to the House of Representatives and to the Senate. This isn't about babies. This is about money.
