While gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis continues evolving her position on abortion, morphing it to reflect whatever political wind is blowing across the plains of Texas, and Girl Scouts USA exec Brian Crawford pens what Life News claims is a letter intended to silence its reporting of the Girl Scouts’ pro-abortion stance, the truth of the abortion industry is being spoken by one who bore witness. Marianne Anderson worked as a nurse at a Planned Parenthood office in Indianapolis, assisting its abortionists by partially sedating women and girls who paid extra for the small luxury of anesthesia. Despite the assertions to the contrary by pro-abortionists across this nation, Ms. Anderson described for The Criterion newspaper the reality of her time inside one of the lucrative Planned Parenthood abortion factories this way: “It was a money-grubbing, evil, very sad, sad place to work.” She elaborates:

“One young girl came in with her mom. She was about sixteen. Her mom had made the appointment…It’s supposed to only be the patient who makes the appointment. I checked her in, and she thought she was there for a prenatal checkup. The mom was pushing it. She blindsided her own daughter.”

Another time, she said, “This guy brought in a Korean girl. I had no doubt in my mind this girl was a sex slave. This guy would not leave her side. They could barely communicate. He wanted to make all the arrangements. During the ultrasound, she told one of the nurses that there were lots of girls in the house, and that the man hits them. She never came back for the abortion. I always wondered what happened to her. One of my co-workers said, ‘You’re better off to just let it go.’”

Further, “When we had to call 911 for an ambulance, we were told never to say the word ‘abortion’ because they don’t want that broadcast,” said Anderson. “They knew that the calls were recorded, and could be made public.”

So rather than reporting an obvious victim of sex trafficking, or being truthful about a medical emergency, instead they chose the money. And at least one so-called doctor, describes Ms. Anderson, offered a less-than-compassionate bedside manner.

“One doctor, when he was in the POC [products of conception] room, would talk to the aborted baby while looking for all the parts. ‘Come on, little arm, I know you’re here! Now you stop hiding from me!’ It just made me sick to my stomach. The sound the suction machine made when it turned on still haunts me.”

Let that sink in. “Products of conception.” Clearly, objectification of a human life is necessary for its conscienceless destruction. But the grotesque objectification of human life by abortionists at Planned Parenthood doesn’t end with profitable abortions-on-demand. They “earn” money in other ways.

“They would allow girls to have ultrasounds that were obviously way too far along [for a legal abortion],” Anderson said. “‘If they want to be seen, you just put them through, no problem,’” her employers told her, “just taking advantage to make money.”

It took Ms. Anderson less that eight months at Planned Parenthood to come to the realization that the message her former employer would like us all to believe—that abortion is rare and should remain legal and safe (just don’t tell the emergency medical team)—is disinformation by an industry fighting to retain its profits from the deaths of over one million pre-born infants every year. She realized she needed to extricate herself. But, before Ms. Anderson could quit, she found herself terminated. She soon secured a nursing position with Community North Hospital, where she enjoys her job, and loves that her coworkers revere life, rather than profiting from extinguishing it. To help her deal with her remorse, Ms. Anderson attended a retreat.

“They wanted us to pick out a name every day for one of the babies whose abortions we were a part of, and pray for that child,” Anderson said. “I still do that. I can’t remember the number [of abortions] I came up with, but I figure it will take me several years before I get through the list.”

It took Ms. Anderson some time to decide to share her painful story, and now intends to return to Planned Parenthood, not as an abortionist’s aid, but as a sidewalk counselor, encouraging those considering abortion to instead choose life.

Ms. Anderson’s story is encouraging for a country still straddling the abortion fence, but leaning pro-life more and more each day, with annual abortion rates declining modestly. But as Wendy Davis and other pro-abortionists continue asserting that it’s a “woman’s right to choose,” there is no argument that will ever convince those of us who believe, without exception, in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all that there are not two distinct lives in existence. It remains a national shame that one of those lives is legally at the mercy of the other with no “choice” in the matter.

This week, hot air-filled John Kerry daftly declared that climate change is our generation’s “greatest challenge.” Mr. Kerry, for all his shameless attempts to brainwash an entire nation, could not be more wrong. While much of the country is thawing out from record-setting snowfall, the abortion statistics remain painfully, undeniably real:

• Since its legalization in 1973, approximately 50 million abortions have been performed in the United States.
• According to the Guttmacher Institute, the most recent date shows that, in 2008, 1.21 million abortions were performed in the United States. That’s 3,322 abortions per day.
• Black women are more than 4.8 times more likely than non-Hispanic white women to have an abortion, and Hispanic women are 2.7 times as likely (AGI).
• 40% of minors having an abortion report that neither of their parents knew about the abortion (AGI).
• First trimester abortions cost between $350-$500. After 20 weeks, the fee jumps to at least $1,000.
• On average, women give at least 3 reasons for having an abortion:
  • 3/4 say that having a baby would interfere with work, school or other responsibilities
  • About 3/4 say they cannot afford a child
  • 1/2 say they do not want to be a single parent or are having problems with their husband or partner (AGI)
• Obamacare opens new avenues for potential federal funding of abortion coverage.
• Planned Parenthood reported receiving a record $542 million in taxpayer support in fiscal year 2012.
• Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards’ annual salary is $400,000.
