Jon Karl Grills White House Over Planned Parenthood Videos

Grills, roasts, fricasees ... take your pick.

Josh Earnest continues to make it clear this week that not only has he not watched the undercover videos of Planned Parenthood, but that he is in fact simply taking Planned Parenthood's word for it that they reveal nothing and are outright fraudulent.

In the Digitas video above, you can see clips from both Friday's and Thursday's briefings where Earnest plainly admits the White House is using the organization's talking points. Apparently the alleged criminal sale of baby body parts does not rise to the level of "merits our attention" at Obama's White House.

That wasn't the only thing that ABC's Jon Karl asked Earnest, however. For just shy of four minutes, Karl grills Earnest about the videos, as seen below:


Earnest, the President's top spokesperson and the Press Secretary, claims to have no idea whether Obama has even watched the video. He absolutely refuses to concede that even alleged criminal behavior warrants investigation. Indeed, he expresses absolutely no intellectual curiosity whatsoever as to the contents of the video or any potential criminality on the part of Planned Parenthood. They have said they are innocent, and that is exactly and in total the full amount of consideration the White House seems willing to give the matter.

Americans actually do care whether or not Planned Parenthood is selling baby organs, or perhaps even harvesting born alive infants. The White House clearly does not share that desire. At least, not until Planned Parenthood tells them to.
