http://samuel-warde.com/2015/10/republicans-use-false-evidence-oath-smear-planned-parenthood/In their ongoing crusade to discredit Planned Parenthood, Republicans continue to manipulate the truth. In other words, all they have are lies, lies and more lies.
Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee overpowered their Republican colleagues on Thursday, temporarily blocking testimony from an anti-Planned Parenthood abortion doctor who served as a witness during a hearing overseen by anti-choice Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ).
Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.), protested a graphic video about abortion procedures that was shown to the committee by witness Dr. Anthony Levatino.
This witness has played a tape that he has now admitted under oath was not prepared in connection with Planned Parenthood at all and I ask that it be stricken from the record of this hearing, Cicilline said.

What do you think is their bottom line,it is to discourage people from using Government Services. Nothing more and nothing less.
