Right wing extremists more of a threat than Muslim extremists..

Of course you can edit a clip to make someone sound stupid, like the media did with Sarah Palin, or to impute views to them unfairly, but I fail to see how that applies here.

You just said, "I fail here." (I left a few words out. And yet, it rings true.)
 
What is a right wing extremist? You take that Bible out of their hand and replace it with a Constitution and they all become pretty much normal. Take the constitution away and give them a copy of Das Kapital and they all become democrats.

I really want to understand this. What was so misleading? The things that shocked people was one, the fact that they were routinely harvesting organs from babies and getting paid for it, and two, the utter callousness with which they discussed the sordid business. One could imagine more moral anguish from guys running a junk yard and debating whether to part out a classic car.

AUSTIN, Texas, Jan 25 (Reuters) - A Texas grand jury has indicted two anti-abortion activists in a case involving covert videos on fetal tissue procurement talks with Planned Parenthood and found there was no wrongdoing on the part of the health group, a district attorney said on Monday.

"The grand jury decision was a result of a probe launched last year under Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a Republican, who accused Planned Parenthood of the "gruesome harvesting of baby body parts." No evidence was provided by Texas to back the claim.

"The videos released last summer led Texas and several other Republican-controlled states to try to halt funding for local Planned Parenthood operations.

"After a lengthy and thorough investigation by the Harris County District Attorney's Office, the Texas Rangers, and the Houston Police Department, a Harris County grand jury took no action Monday against Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast," the Harris County District Attorney's office said in a statement.

"Planned Parenthood has denied the accusation and called the probe politically motivated.

"David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt have been indicted by the grand jury for tampering with a governmental record, said prosecutors for the county in which Houston is located.

"The two were involved in covert videos last year in which a discussion was held with a Planned Parenthood official on the procurement of fetal tissue.

"Daleiden, founder of the Center for Medical Progress that released the videos, was also charged with violating a prohibition on the purchase and sale of human organs, a misdemeanor, the Harris County District Attorney said.

"The videos purported to show Planned Parenthood officials trying to negotiate prices for aborted fetal tissue. Under federal law, donated human fetal tissue may be used for research, but profiting from its sale is prohibited.

"Shortly after the release, Texas, the most populous Republican-controlled U.S. state, said it would launch a probe of Planned Parenthood."
