Conix is better off arguing that aliens from Alpha Centauri are conspiring to fix the Kentucky Derby.

PP is not aborting fetuses alive to harvest their brains and other body parts. This is exactly the same as listening to a candidate argue that aliens from Alpha Centauri are conspiring to fix the Kentucky Derby. And, in any case, Planned Parenthood not only can deny it, but it has denied it, over and over again. And taxpayers are not paying for it because it isn't happening, and because PP doesn't use federal money to pay for any of the three percent of its services that include abortion.
?And this is where things go badly wrong. It doesn't matter what The Washington Post editorial page says. (I've found that, if you accept this as a general rule in all things, you won't go wrong. You also won't invade Iraq.) The only thing that matters is that a prominent presidential candidate is dealing in demonstrable, damnable lies.
