By now, you have already seen the undercover video released of Dr. Deborah Nucatola candidly discussing the going rate for fetal organs whilst chomping on her salad and drinking a glass of red wine.

Since the release of this video, Breitbart released the name of the company as StemExpress-a five-year old privately held for-profit business located in Placerville, California that describes itself as:

“a multi-million dollar company that supplies human blood, tissue products, primary cells and other clinical specimens to biomedical researchers.” The company says it “offers the largest variety of raw material in the industry, as well as fresh, fixed and cryopreserved human primary cells.”

StemExpress has not returned phone calls and has declined to comment. (Breitbart)

It also comes as no surprise that Planned Parenthood President, Cecile Richards (former Deputy Chief of Staff to Nancy Pelosi–I know, HUGE SURPRISE) sung praises of the caring staff (and of course, our President) in this video:

Richards has since come to the defense of the viral video as of late:

“In health care, patients sometimes want to donate tissue to scientific research that can help lead to medical breakthroughs, such as treatments and cures for serious diseases. Women at Planned Parenthood who have abortions are no different. At several of our health centers, we help patients who want to donate tissue for scientific research, and we do this just like every other high-quality health care provider does — with full, appropriate consent from patients and under the highest ethical and legal standards. There is no financial benefit for tissue donation for either the patient or for Planned Parenthood. In some instances, actual costs, such as the cost to transport tissue to leading research centers, are reimbursed, which is standard across the medical field.

A well-funded group established for the purpose of damaging Planned Parenthood’s mission and services has promoted a heavily edited, secretly recorded videotape that falsely portrays Planned Parenthood’s participation in tissue donation programs that support lifesaving scientific research. Similar false accusations have been put forth by opponents of abortion services for decades. These groups have been widely discredited and their claims fall apart on closer examination, just as they do in this case.”

…So a chief doctor for Planned Parenthood just sits around at a dinner conversation to discuss the price tag of a fetal liver or heart? Just for grins, she talks about where she cuts the child up (pretty much) and mentions that “laws are up to interpretation” and that “what ultimately happens does not matter”? She stated that when it came to the Supreme Court (my guess is that she was referring to the harvesting of the organs during late-term abortions) “we are all losers.”

Well, SHE said it, not us!

I know that I was not the only person disgusted by the lack of compassion, the clinical insensitivity Nucatola displayed when talking about harvesting the small organs of a baby. Yes, a baby…..and the “menu” of organs provided by these companies that are selling these organs…all so very nonchalantly while sipping her California Cab.

I, for one, had another discussion while sipping my wine and eating my salad tonight and looking into the eyes of our 9 year-old son. He came in, (with his friend in tow) to eat dinner, laughing and sweaty from riding bikes and running away from the neighborhood girls. We talked about Legos and swimming and how he is in no hurry to go back to school. Upon finishing dinner, I watched him run like crazy through the sprinkler in the yard and take one of our cats (much to Sugar the Cat’s dismay) along with him.

He was once a three-pound baby born 7 weeks early with tiny, working organs. I remember how thankful my husband and I were to learn that despite his prematurity and my health issues, he was as healthy as can be.

I thought about those days. Where pregnancy and staying healthy were a balancing act. And some of those days, I was walking the tightrope. Those days before giving birth, I fretted for the life of our son. All I wanted was a healthy baby boy. He had a name at 17 weeks. A name. He was not a “clump of cells.” I then thought about the friends of ours who are desperately trying to adopt and who have been trying to add a new member to their family for years. I think about other friends–from ALL walks of life, economic backgrounds, races, religious denominations, sexual orientations who WANT a family. All they want is a baby. To read about and to see this blatant disregard for LIFE is appalling and sickening.

Cecile Richards stated at the Democratic National Convention in 2012 that we are a “century of progress.”

I guess, according to Planned Parenthood, “Progress” consists of harvesting baby organs and paying an obstetrician handsomely to do it. “Progress” means a clinical approach to this practice, a showing of no remorse. “Progress” is lack of compassion. “Progress” is taking away life and profiting off of it. “Progress” is short-sighted and not seeing other solutions to the problems at hand. “Progress” is taking something so reprehensible and heinous as selling a PERSON’S organs (a person who could not elect to be an “organ donor” on his/her driver’s license) and masking it as “women’s health care.” “Progress” is taking the voice away of future generations.

This is what they define as “progress?” I’d hate to see what their definition of “regression” is.
