Democrats want the man who his behind the videos that exposed Planned Parenthood selling baby parts to testify before the Oversight committee so they can crucify him. They reference his ‘questionable activities’ with reference to the videos and say if he isn’t called to testify they will call him to testify under a minority committee:
POLITICO – The House Oversight Committee plans to call Planned Parenthood to a hearing on the undercover videos one day before the government is due to run out of money, according to Democrats on the committee.
Democratic members are demanding that David Daleiden, the man behind the video operation, is also called to testify at the Sept. 29 hearing. If he isn’t, they say in a letter to Chairman Jason Chaffetz today that they will call him to their own minority hearing.
They say the hearing in the Oversight Committee, which includes several members of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, is part of the “broader power struggle to unseat House Speaker John Boehner, led by an extreme wing of the Republican Party that is using this issue to force a government shutdown unless the Speaker bows to their demands.”
“We do not believe our committee should be dragged into an internal Republican political battle that has been churning for years,” they wrote.
The Democrats also said that it would be “fundamentally unfair” to hold the hearing without calling Daleiden.
“We strongly oppose this biased, one-sided attack against Planned Parenthood that disregards the questionable activities of Mr. Daleiden merely to help the House Freedom Caucus shut down the government and potentially oust Speaker Boehner – all while jeopardizing healthcare services for millions of women across the country,” they wrote.
Democrats don’t care about fairness nor do they care about getting to the truth of what’s going on. All they want to do is publicly crucify this man so that they can smear him because he went after their precious Planned Parenthood.
