ABC's George Stephanopoulos Challenges Carly Fiorina's False Description Of Planned Parenthood Video

[spanone]

one thing fiorina has learned from trump, state a lie and keep on lying.....video @ link

STEPHANOPOULOS: Another powerful moment last night was when you talked about those Planned Parenthood tapes. But analysts who have watched all 12 plus hours say the scene you describe - that harrowing scene you describe -- actually isn't in those tapes. Did you misspeak?

FIORINA: No, I didn't misspeak and I don't know who you're speaking about in terms of watching the tapes but I have seen those images. I don't know whether you've watched the tapes, George, most people haven't. Certainly none of the Democrats who are still defending Planned Parenthood have watched those tapes. Planned Parenthood needs to be defended. This kind of butchery erodes at the character of our nation.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Sure, well Sarah Kliff, actually, writing in Vox watched all 12 hours, and she concluded, 'Either Fiorina hasn't watched the Planned Parenthood videos or she is knowingly misrepresenting the footage. Because what she says happens in the Planned Parenthood videos simply does not exist.'

FIORINA: Well, you know, there's a lot of commentary about these tapes being doctored. In fact, that's what the mainstream media keeps talking about, is the tapes and their origin. Rest assured I have seen the images that I talked about last night. Rest assured that human lives are being aborted fully formed in order to harvest body parts. Rest assured that this erodes at the character of our nation, and once again I will say, I dare Mrs. Clinton and President Obama, two defenders of Planned Parenthood, to watch these videotapes.

1. Notice she didn't say she's seen them ON the videos

She mentioned the videos. Didn't say she'd seen the videos. Said she'd seen images that she described.

Just like last night.

[kelliekat44]

2. You mean someone actually called her on this from the media? Wow!! Wonder if Carley even watched

the real, uncut, untouched, unedited version of this film? She set herself up for prime target from the Dems if they have the guts to expose this scam.

[underpants]

5. She muddled the response by blaming the commentary

Basically she is admitting that her whole point was based on what she read.

I heard this story on RW radio. Someone who claims (or is claimed) to have worked at PP having seen something like this. Talk radio embellished it, their commentators added on and flooded their media with it (so it's true now to that crowd), and Carly took it another step.

12. So far, nothing from NPR on this, only that Fiorina "won" the debate.

[kelliekat44]

3. Funny no one among the candidates or the moderators asked Dr. Carson about his research with

fetuses.

6. Kid gloves with Carson

Trump was buddy-ing it up with him last night. They don't want to attack their "black friend" on TV, their primary voters will take care of that for them.

4. This woman is just another sick republican piece of shit.

She should be illegal.

[vinny9698]

7. That's the way the GOP rolls, lying and making stuff up to appeal to their base

The GOP has learned that just out and out lying is the only way to sell their idea of a successful America for the 1%.

[madashelltoo]

8. They didn't call her on it because

They plan to repeat the lie at their next campaign stop.

[Brainstormy]

14. and repeat and repeat it and repeat it

and their base will believe it.

[brush]

9. She out and out lied and kept doubling down on her lie

I'm really surprised that Stephanpoulus called her on it but I'm thankful.

[malaise]

10. I'm waiting for the Democrats to spreak out about this big LIE

EfuggingNough already.

[spanone]

11. no kidding...haven't heard a single word uttered in PP defense from dems

do they not remember ACORN??????

[Eleanors38]

13. 2 enduring rasons for this...

(1). When the FR establishes an issue, it is THEIRS. And MSM & Democratic "leadership" will back off.

(2). The public (including Democrats) are pointedly made to see this and conclude that the Democratic Party doesn't have the juice to defend one of two issues that still prop up the party as a force for social betterment. (The other issue is SS.)

[Eleanors38]

15. Please see #13. The GOP is closing in on the right to choose everywhere...

...because they see little opposition. In the last few days in my conversations with 20 something women, they see this as a minor issue because (as one put it) "women have always had that right."

[Gothmog]

16. Carly lied through her teeth last night

[Johonny]

17. I dare Fiorina to tell all the women helped by PP that she wants them to be without medical care.

Down and out failed CEO's pushing doctored videos of abortion daring a president to do something should be laughed at. She is a joke. Women will be harmed if PP is defunded. She wants to hurt women and she's willing to lie to do it. She is a sick puppy. F' her.

Take your DARE and shove it up your *ss I stand for women's health, should be Clinton's response.

[spanone]

18. i don't think she cares about 'all the women'. not a bit.

[Johonny]

19. Two debates in and I think we can conclude none of these people "care"

They certainly don't care about anyone but themselves. They want to be president to be president. It will look good in the history books. They don't care one fig about America, the middle class, immigration or religion, let alone things they never talk about like poor people. These people are disgusting. How can any human want to vote for them? The older I get the less I understand Republican voters at all. Fiorina was destroyed by Boxer when she went one on one. If she goes one on one with Hillary I doubt she will do better. All the old stuff about her never voting, but always giving politicians money will come out. Her charm is talk show one liners thick.
