Citing ‘incendiary’ rhetoric, they call for dismantling of House committee probing Planned Parenthood.

BY SARAH D. WIRE
WASHINGTON — House Democrats, including Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco, called on House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wisc.) Tuesday to disband the select committee investigating Planned Parenthood.
The organization has been a focus of heated criticism by conservatives since the release last summer of several videos in which Planned Parenthood officials in California and Colorado appeared to discuss using tissue from aborted fetuses in medical research. The videos were filmed by anti-a******n activists posing as biotechnology workers.
Congressional Democrats contend that inflammatory rhetoric about the videos, including a comment by the chairwoman of the select committee, Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), about the sale of “baby body parts,” has contributed to a hostile atmosphere toward a******n providers.
Since the videos were made public in July, there has been a string of arsons at a******n clinics across the country, including one in Thousand Oaks. On Friday, a gunman k**led three people in a rampage at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Both California senators called for cooler rhetoric Monday, and Sen. Barbara Boxer asked Ryan to disband the committee.
House Democrats seconded that demand Tuesday.
“The incendiary language and rhetoric being used associated with this committee is d********g,” Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Hills-borough) told reporters. “It is time for us to take down this committee and take down the vitriolic comments being made by so many against what is a legally provided service.”
Speier and the five other Democrats serving on the Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives sent Ryan a letter saying the barbed rhetoric has endangered women and their access to healthcare.
Ryan’s office said there is no plan to dismantle the committee. In a news conference early in the day, the speaker talked about Friday’s shootings and said the country needs to do more to address mental health issues.
“What happened is appalling and justice should be swift,” he said.
House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Bakersfield) dismissed the idea that rhetoric played a role in Friday’s shooting.
“The thing that drove him most was he was a very evil, crazy man. If you want to talk rhetoric, I see rhetoric from all different issues if they want to make that argument,” he said Monday.
McCarthy also told reporters the select committee was necessary to “get to the bottom” of the statements captured on the videos.
“You’ve got a bipartisan [committee], so you can get the t***h out and everybody will have the ability to put their ideas in, but at the end you’ll be able to get the t***h,” McCarthy said.
The highest ranking Democrat on the committee, Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), said Democrats would continue to participate on the panel if it is not disbanded.
“We’re going to be in the room to protect American women, their access to healthcare, their right to a******n, their right to birth control and their right to choose the provider they want and to do it in safety,” she said.
Pelosi noted that during the moment of silence on the House floor for the shooting victims, Republican leaders didn’t acknowledge where the shooting had occurred.
“Why couldn’t they utter the words Planned Parenthood?” she said.
The videos show Planned Parenthood employees negotiating the amount the organization would be paid for removing and storing fetal tissue. The anti-a******n group that made the videos, the Center for Medical Progress, says they are evidence that the a******n provider sells human tissue, which is banned under federal law.
Planned Parenthood says it was reimbursed for the cost of storing and preparing fetal tissue for medical research, which is legal. sarah.wire@latimes.com   Twitter: @sarahdwire This story is part of “The 55,” an occasional look at California’s congressional lawmakers and the clout they wield as the largest delegation on Capitol Hill.

When "progressivism" slithered into the secular liberal portion of the Democrat Party, [circa 1897] deception was the strategy, WW. It's gone down hill from there, from re-segregating America during the Woodrow Wilson (D) presidency to PPH, Margaret Sanger's {very quiet} attempt to rid the world of, shhhhhhh, "the low intellect negro; the mentally and physically defective feebleminded race," was still a big part of the new Democrat Party. If JFK were currently in politics, the "New Party Left" would certainly refer to (him) as a "right-wing nut-job."

In secular liberal progressive deceptive characterization, the "mirror" is always turned to capture conservatives, Republicans and Judeo-Christians. Up is down, "left" is right and "right" is wrong. Secularism IS the "earthly" surfacing of Satan, and Saul Alinsky ["Rules for Radicals"] is a hero of the "left," and Satan [the first radical] is a hero of Saul Alinsky. Hummmmmmm.
