If abortion groups didn't do anything wrong, why are they suing to keep David Daleiden's videos under wraps? It certainly seems odd that groups like the National Abortion Federation keep fighting to keep Center for Medical Progress's (CMP) from releasing any material if its leaders were as innocent as they claim to be. And yet, the Left's counterpunch goes on in California, where a San Francisco District Court has just ordered CMP to stand down on any transcripts, footage, or material it gathered at the abortion group's convention. In an accusatory tone, Judge William Orrick's agenda is clear: "[CMP's projects] thus far have not been pieces of journalistic integrity, but misleadingly edited videos and unfounded assertions."
If I didn't know any better, I'd think this was Cecile Richards talking! Orrick's talking points sound identical to Planned Parenthood itself, which insists it hasn't broken the law -- despite its own employees suggesting just the opposite to an undercover Daleiden. If Planned Parenthood and NAF aren't guilty of trafficking baby body parts, why not let the information prove it? Instead, the abortion industry is celebrating the censorship of CMP, which begs the question: what exactly are they hiding? Orrick's injunction isn't just another setback to Daleiden, who was indicted by a federal jury last month in Texas -- it's a setback to the truth.
