Has Hilary testified under oath, about Benghazi yet? I doubt she told the military to stand down. I'd like to know why she authorized the State Dept to say it was all a reaction to a youtube video, when no one in their right mind really thought that. That's a fair question (I think), and she has to explain her actions on that front if she wants to be POTUS.
If it turns out to be nothing more than a political witchhunt, the Republicans should have to answer for that. We have too many huge problems to fix, to spend resources on a political attack.

Perhaps we need an investigation to uncover why so many people continue to believe non-scandals that have already been investigated. Hell, even the GOP led House investigation cleared the White House and CIA...yet you still believe.
And in the past two weeks:
1) The man in line to take the Speaker's gavel admits the Select Committee is politically motivated
2) A former investigator of the Select Committee admits it's politically motivated
3) Another GOP House member admits the Select Committee is politically motivated
What a waste of taxpayer money. Where's the order to stand down???

Had she previously testified under oath? It's a simple question.
The fact that it's politically motivated, doesn't mean there isn't anything to see there. The hearings against Nixon and Clinton were also politically motivated, that doesn't mean there wasn't genuinely something there.

In one of these threads, you said the Planned Parenthood videos had been discredited. Funny, since PP just announced that they will no longer be engaging in the exact behavior that the videos revealed.
In other words, PP basically said "we didn't do any of those things that are in the videos, and in addition, we won't be doing those things anymore."
Makes sense.

The videos were edited to imply a profit motive that doesn't exist.
The decision to deny reimbursement isn't an admission, it's asserting their position that this is about science and not money.
You can still be against abortion and admit you're 100% wrong here.

So it all comes down to whether or not there was profit, or just enough to cover expenses?
I have no problem with valid scientific research, and the tissue has to come from somewhere. What repulsed me, and many others, was the casual, inhuman attitude of the ghouls that work there, talking flippantly about butchering babies over wine, while discussing sports cars. Maybe that's what all scientists do. It was ugly. And I'm not wrong in stating that.
