Bill O'Reilly Pimps Bogus Lila Rose Video To Solicit Donations For 'Live Action' (And Defames Dr. Tiller, Again)

Posted by Priscilla -25.80pc on April 30, 2013 · Flag

Given that Bill O'Reilly is America's media pope, it's not surprising that he would support Lila Rose whom "Jezebel" accurately describes as a "Joan of Arc" with a "misguided Savior complex." Lila, like O'Reilly, is a devout Catholic who, as part of her jihad (whoops, crusade) against abortion, does sting videos (she apprenticed under James O'Keefe) in order to show abortion providers engaged in criminal activities. Her efforts at entrapping clinic staff have, however, produced no investigations, let alone prosecutions, on the part of legal authorities. But because she's anti-abortion and Fox News is the mouthpiece for the movement that seeks to take women back to the dark ages, she is always warmly welcomed on Fox. And now that her homies are using the Gosnell case to conflate his clinic with safe, legal abortion, it wasn't a surprise to see her and her bogus video warmly welcomed by Bill O'Reilly who uses his Fox pulpit to fight for the rights of the unborn. 

O'Reilly reported that the Gosnell case is going to the jury and then proclaimed that "a new undercover report from the pro-life organization Live Action shows that Gosnell is not the only abortion doctor apparently willing to let babies die." After informing his audience that one of Lila's sting operators visited a Washington DC doctor (cue the death threats) surgeon, he played video of the exchange in which a pregnant actress expressed concerns about what would happen if the baby was born alive during an abortion. The doctor explained that he would be obligated to help the baby to survive but "it probably wouldn't." He added that "we would not help it." The video shows nothing illegal being done by the doctor. What O'Reilly didn't show as the part of the extended video in which a nurse states that a born alive child would be taken to the hospital.

O'Reilly played part of another Live Action video in which a woman, who appears to be a counselor, appears to say that if the baby is born alive it will be placed into a toxic solution to kill it. The longer version of the video shows that the woman who is speaking is not a counselor and that the actual counselor said that if the fetus is born alive, the doctor would attempt to resuscitate it or sent it to a hospital, the quote being “Once that pregnancy comes out alive, he will do everything he can to save it.” O'Reilly didn't mention that; but he told viewers that he had to edit for time (He showed the part intended to inflame anti-choice sentiment) and advised viewers that they could see the whole video at Live Action (Is it me or does that name conjure up images of sleazy strip clubs?)

Sweet lil Lila explained that her investigation is to show "the inhuman and abusive practices, the brutality of abortion in America." She claimed that the "abortion industry" is "brutalizing children old enough to survive outside the womb, in the womb and even with those blurred lines, killing children, in these clinics, that survive failed abortions. She dramatically described these "children" as "struggling for their lives."

Always the seer, Bill predicted that the pro-choice movement won't believe what's in the videos and if it's proven, they'll say that the providers are "the extreme." (Which, of course, they are.) Lila asserted that NARAL and Planned Parenthood argue against all abortion restrictions which include "children are able to survive outside the womb" and claimed that they want taxpayer funded abortion. The anti-choice extremist Lila accused them of being "extreme" and, natch, accused them of being led by President Obama.. O'Reilly accused the "pro-choice" lobby of "wanting abortion." (Wrong, Bill, they want women to have the CHOICE to abort.) As he did when vilifying Dr. Tiller, O'Reilly lied when he claimed that the pro-choice lobby doesn't, even after birth, see the child as a baby.

Rose described her highly edited and deceptive films as "heartbreaking" and "shocking" and continued to whine about the "brutality" of abortion. Bill said that "everybody knows" that "to terminate a fetus in the womb is a destructive act." (Like murdering abortion doctors?) She whined about how we sanitized abortion and that we've "forgotten that the womb is supposed to be a place of safety, compassion, and love." She claimed that her films show "how easily" abortion "leads to infanticide." On cue, Bill suggested that the Washington DC doctor commits infanticide (Again showed the doctor's photo with his name) as did Gosnell and - wait for it - Dr. Tiller. O'Reilly informed the viewers that Lila's group depends on donations and provided the website name.

Once again, O'Reilly used his show to promote the newest causus belli for the anti-choice movement rather than providing a format in which the "abortion industry" could defend itself from these scurrilous charges. But Bill fights for the rights of the unborn - women, not so much!

Tom Sea clearly has no idea what the reality is regarding Planned Parenthood and women’s health. His description of a late-term abortion comes from a right wing talking point that ignores why such a procedure would need to be performed. Seems clear he has no experience dealing with medical issues and is just trying to stir people up with some angry comments. Unless he were to provide some factual materials, there really is no way to respond to such a poster.

Ho Ho Ho, the death of those born alive and murdered are on the hands of liberals, so here they try to turn it around and talk about “back alley abortions”, let’s see, these doctors have killed women too. Planned Parenthood is defunded in Wisconsin thanks to Scott Walker and the Republicans, funded in Illinois where a woman was killed at a Planned Parenthood. Take responsibility for your murders liberals. These abortion places are legal that are already killing.

President Infanticide and his followers better get this. The black population shrinks, a black baby is 5 times more likely to be aborted than a white baby. Let’s remember all the cry babies here standing up for infanticide and crying about back alley abortions. North Dakota, South Dakota, Missouri, Mississippi, you infanticide late term abortion lovers are losing the battle.

Kermit Gosnell must be the liberals new holy icon. Back street abortions? Yeah, right, libs are supporting infanticide.

I think you liberals should save taxpayer’s money and for those late terms abortion, use your own sucking mouths to suck out a babies brains in lieu of the vacuum machines.

The Lila Rose silliness continued into this evening with a bizarre appearance by her on Hannity’s show. Tamara Holder quickly dismissed her, but apparently hadn’t spent time watching the videos to be able to debunk her with specifics on the new attack.

The truth is that Rose is trying to use the right wing media publicity about Gosnell to get attention for her own problems. And the other truth is that the only media outlet that gives her much coverage is Fox News. As Holder correctly stated, Rose is a discredited person who is known for misleading bits of edited video designed to promote her political ideas.

But zaglossus, the back-alley ones wouldn’t be frequented by those of Bill’s class (or, more accurately, his superiors) who’d be able to send their daughters to “special overseas boarding schools for the term*” and their wives would suddenly decide that she needs a nice “extended” overseas vacation—the fact that her destination is a country where abortion is fully legal would be sheer coincidence and not at all a factor in the choice*.

*Neither word was deliberately intended to be used for their connections to pregnancy and abortion but both seem particularly appropriate in this context.
