Wow.
Holy .
I hope a major news outlet verifies this and blasts them. Strange there has been no SJW sightings in here yet.
The mainstream media is in bed with the SJWs, so they'll pretend this didn't happen.
Liberals are stooping to a new low everyday. They're a ing joke.
I don't think they can even defend this.
Spot-on comment from the article:
"They actually were hacked by extremists. Unfortunately, those extremists were themselves."
Dumb. Seems like a poorly conceived PR stunt comparing attacks on PP to literal "attacks" on a website. Execution comes off poorly, particularly the FB post.
Site now says 'Undergoing Maintenance." Pretty stupid blunder to give your enemies this kind of material.
But this isn't something the MSM ever covers, it's more Daily Show material.
This is what Planned Parenthood is trying to deflect from, BTW:

McConnell and Hatch voted for fetal tissue research
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) pledged this week to fast-track a bill defunding Planned Parenthood. But the move to strip the organization of some $528 million in annual funding from the federal and state governments is more than a little ironic.It was about Planned Parenthood, after all, that the then number two ranking Senate Republican Jon Kyl of Arizona acknowledged his 30-fold error that "well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does" is related to abortion introduced the "not intended to be a factual statement" defense into the GOP lexicon. As Texas Governor Rick Perry learned the hard way in 2012, defunding the women's healthcare group would have tripled expenses for his state. (As the Guttmacher Ins ute explained, "every dollar spent on publicly funded family planning services saves $7.09 in public expenditures.) And Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican nominee for president, hadn't just previously been pro-choice and a donor to Planned Parenthood; his company Bain Capital profited from investments in a medical waste firm that, among other things, disposed of fetal tissue.
Oh, and one other thing. In 1993, Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell and current Planned Parenthood foes like Orrin Hatch (R-UT) voted for the bill which legalized the use of fetal tissue for medical research.
As Huffington Post reported:
In 1988, the Reagan administration began a moratorium on fetal tissue from elective abortions being used in scientific research. But Congress lifted that ban in 1993 when it passed the National Ins utes of Health Revitalization Act, which allowed research on human fetal tissue regardless of whether the tissue came from a voluntary abortion. McConnell voted for that bill, as did Reps. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) and Fred Upton (R-Mich.), all of whom have condemned Planned Parenthood in the past two weeks for its involvement in the practice.
That bill, which passed the House by 283 to 131 and the Senate by a whopping 93 to 4, also included the backing of Orrin Hatch (R-UT). But Hatch, among the first in the Senate to call for an investigation of Planned Parenthood in the wake of the doctored videos released by anti-abortion foes, has a good reason for supporting research using fetal tissue. That rare commodity among congressional Republicans, Senator Orrin Hatch supports stem cell research.Continue reading below.
That's right. As Hatch explained to Rachel Gotbaum in the New England Journal of Medicinein March 2007, the issue of stem cell research was a very personal one:
RACHEL GOTBAUM: You're a pro-life Republican.ORRIN HATCH: That's right.
RG: Did something happen? Did a case come up? What was the turning point?
OH: Well, there was a case. I can't say that it was the only reason why my mind was changed, but there was a little Utah boy - he was 4 years of age - who was brought to me. His name was Cody Anderson. He was 4 years of age, and you can imagine the horror his family had when they found out that he had exactly the same virulent diabetic condition that his grandfather had, who died at the premature age of 47 due to complications of diabetes after a series of something like 27 painful and debilitating and ultimately unsuccessful operations. I can still remember that little exhausted boy falling peacefully asleep in his father's arms in my office as his family visited me in support of more funding for diabetes research. It dawned on me that we owe the best we can to these kids.
The next month, Hatch described the possible lifesaving cures that could be made possible by stem cell research from the availability of the donation of fetal tissue he helped legalize:
"When I think about embryonic stem cell research, I imagine diabetics without insulin pumps. I imagine patients with Parkinson's disease who sprint rather than shuffle. I conceive of patients with spinal cord disease or injuries who stand up and walk again."Of course, that was then and this is now. And now, men like Orrin Hatch and Mitch McConnell won't stand up to the right-wing activists enraged by the legal and routine practice by Planned Parenthood and others of preserving and providing fetal tissue as requested by their patients.attribution: Guttmacher Ins ute
If the anti-abortion forces succeed in blocking the le X and Medicaid funds that cons ute 40 percent of Planned Parenthood's budget, millions of women will lose access to contraception, cancer screening and STD tests. As a result, both Uncle Sam's overall spending and the body count of American women will go up.

no spin, ing asshole
get the out of here or stay on topic
that's pretty bad, and i'm more or less pro choice.This is what Planned Parenthood is trying to deflect from, BTW:
http://thefederalist.com/2015/07/30/...enthood-video/
It's brietbart style find the stupid employee gotcha . I started reading the authors bios. It had several Heartland lobbyist, a former Cornyn speechwriter, and castoffs from the national review and christian quarterly.
I guess it's only fair but if youre going to give boutox about his left wing nonsense what is being presented is every bit as bad.
It's shenanigans like this that make me think GOP followers are morons frankly. They bait the abortion and social issues and get you idiots stirred up to vote and then do absolutely nothing but stall on immigration in legislative session. Even in Texas the cherry of gerrymandering, they had to try and shutdown the clinics by backdooring imaginary safety concerns and even then that was injuncted by SCOTUS and you know how that is going to go. Injunctions tends to speak for themselves as to the courts disposition.
Enjoy your meaningless indignation.

Stupid doesn't realize there are only two people in this thread that he doesn't have on ignore
Going to get a real good discussion going I bet!
Grandma, you are still on ignore and I am certainly not going to read anything you address to me directly on that account. If there is an interesting conversation it gets picked up elsewhere. If you want to talk to me you can either sit around and wait for a fresh account to get privileges or you can hop on one of your another accounts you claim to not have.
You're an emotional leech and get off to people actually listening and responding; on the converse, you've always gotten upset when I condescend and ignore you. I'm absolutely fine with this arrangement of leaving your taunts and similar drivel just hang. As I said, it distills the experience.
Don't worry though. I'm still not going to let the narrative you've tried to troll into a solo act here. I'll still point out that you are barely literate, antisocial, and deeply insecure so you resort to these tactics to be heard. Not by me though. Not on your terms.
I've talked to you before about your sources. I can do a similar commentary on the editors and contributors over at alternet, nakedcapitalism, and other sites you spam on the regular. You justify confirmation bias from the other side when you do it yourself.
It's also my opinion. It's not a lie. You may not like it but it's there just the same. You know for a fact many others feel the same way. They taunt you so you've dug in and are participating in the same macho stupidity as your opponents.
