“The GOP: Rabbits or Tigers?
By Jeffrey Lord on 7.30.13

‘We had rabbits when we needed tigers.’—Ronald Reagan writing in his diary of congressional Republicans

Well.

There they go again.

The GOP Establishment is terrified at the idea of defunding Obamacare.

Except, of course, that the opposition within the GOP Establishment and among some conservative pundits to defunding Obamacare—as Senators Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Marco Rubio propose—has nothing whatsoever to do with Obamacare.

Zero.

As Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher would both recognize instantly.

Leading to the obvious. The problem within the GOP is just as Reagan described decades ago: too many rabbits, not enough tigers.

First: Reagan and Thatcher. We’ll get to the critics after that.

Reagan, right from the very beginning of his active political career in 1964 all the way through his two terms in the White House, saw the party’s problem as the timid, barnacle-encrusted GOP Establishment. An Establishment he called the ‘fraternal order’ Republicans, as he told the New York Times in December of 1976 when the GOP was reeling from what Reagan saw as yet another unnecessary GOP presidential loss by faint-hearted party moderates, this one to Jimmy Carter by Gerald Ford.

‘With some of our friends we don’t need enemies,’ Reagan frostily noted in his diary in 1984 after another frustrating presidential encounter with faint-hearted GOP moderates on the subject of budget cuts.

‘I’m afraid I blew my top at one point. It seemed to me they [GOP Establishment congressmen and senators] are willing to let the Dems. run with the ball because they don’t think we can stop them. I told them before we do that, it’s time for us to agree on our position & then let me take it to the people (TV) & smoke them out. The way we’re going we’re not exerting any leadership.

These were the Republicans and their media supporters who preferred, as he said in an earlier speech, ‘pale pastels’ over ‘bold colors.’ Reagan saw the GOP Establishment, one Reagan biographer later wrote, as being ‘victims of the political equivalent of the Stockholm syndrome, in which hostages come to sympathize with their captors.’

The ‘captors’ being Establishment liberalism.

Tellingly, over in Great Britain’s Conservative Party, Reagan’s political soulmate Margaret Thatcher was dealing with the exact same problem. Thatcher and her allies summoned a term of art from the elite British public school system that described boys seen by their peers as ‘feeble’ or ‘timid’—‘the wets.’’

Here’s Thatcher on the problem. Speaking of one of the leading ‘wets’ of her own Tory government, the Secretary of State for Employment Jim Prior, Thatcher wrote in her memoirs The Downing Street Years, bold print for emphasis:

‘There was, of course, a more profound and general divide between us. For all his virtues, Jim Prior was an example of a political type that had dominated and, in my view, damaged the post-war Tory Party. I call such figures the ‘false squire.’ They have all the outward show of a John Bull—ruddy face, white hair, bluff manner—but inwardly they are political calculators who see the task of Conservatives as one of retreating gracefully before the Left’s inevitable advance. Retreat as a tactic is sometimes necessary; retreat as a settled policy eats at the soul. In order to justify the series of defeats that his philosophy entails, the false squire has to persuade rank-and-file Conservatives and indeed himself that advance is impossible. His whole political life would, after all, be a gigantic mistake if a policy of positive Tory reform turned out to be both practical and popular. Hence the passionate and obstinate resistance mounted by the ‘wets’ to the (Thatcher) fiscal, economic and trade union reforms of the early 1980’s. These reforms had either to fail or be stopped. For if they succeeded, a whole generation of Tory leaders had despaired unnecessarily. ….. I had to stake out a more determined approach.’

Let’s take a look at one liberal tactic and see how the game is played in America—and how Reagan dealt with that game.

First, recall this clip from Sean Hannity’s February 19, 2013 Fox TV show. In the course of a debate with ex-Obama economic aide Austan Goolsbee, Hannity plays a tape of President Obama from 2011 in which Obama says of Republicans:

‘And then you got their plan, which is let’s have dirtier air, dirtier water.’

It is a quote Hannity cites often as an illustration of how liberals play the game of smearing Republicans and conservatives.

Now let’s go back to a diary entry for February 3, 1987, in which President Reagan writes of his veto of a $20 billion Clean Water Bill that he said was ‘loaded with waste and lard.’ Reagan was under heavy attack from Democrats for the veto. The Democrat who was the chairman of the powerful House Public Works and Transportation Committee—out of which the Clean Water bill had emerged—took to the House floor and attacked Reagan in this fashion:

‘Should we follow President Reagan’s recommendations, we’ll return to the dark days when our oceans, rivers, streams were choked with poison.’

Sound familiar?

Which is to say, 24 years before President Obama was running around America accusing Republicans of wanting ‘dirtier air, dirtier water,’ this exact stunt was being played with Ronald Reagan and House Republicans.

The key point? Reagan never wavered in 1987—but House Republicans, fearing for re-election, ran for the hills.

Wrote President Reagan in disgust:

‘A meeting with Repub. Cong. Leadership. I pitched a plan that they stand together so that even with the Dem’s out voting us we can point out to the people how different the Dems & Repubs are. I don’t think they got the message. In the House today only 26 Republicans supported my Veto of the Clean Water bill.’

In short, what is now an almost $17 trillion deficit took yet another lurch forward back there in February of 1987 because Congressional Republicans, fearful over re-election prospects, were simply too “wet”—too weak, timid, and feeble in Thatcher’s phrase—to stand and boldly draw a line in the sand that made a Reaganesque difference between themselves and liberals (Capitulation! Many in the Republican Party are the Party of Capitulation! Not the Party of NO! How many times does a parent have to say NO to his/her child because what the child wants is not for the child’s benefit? The Republican Party needs to get a backbone and stand up for what is right! And what is constitutional!—my addition).

Out of that Stockholm syndrome necessity of ‘retreating gracefully before the Left’s inevitable advance’ (as Thatcher termed it) the Republicans in the Congress of 1987 did exactly what Senator Cruz accuses some today of doing: behaving as ‘the Surrender Caucus.’

And the irony? Having joined Democrats to override Reagan’s veto on the notion they could gain House seats in 1988? Come election day, having sold out their principles yet again—and doubtless egged on by rabbit-minded consultants—the GOP lost two seats in 1988.

This Establishment GOP behavior has been run and rerun repeatedly over the decades. Confronted with some issue X out there—the environment, immigration, the budget, the size and role of government and just about anything else, the classic GOP Establishment response is to run like—Reagan’s word—a ‘rabbit.’ Which is precisely what is going on right this minute with the reaction to Senator Lee’s proposal to defund Obamacare.

‘The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a government program,’ Reagan liked to joke by way of making his decidedly serious point about the actual way Washington really worked.

The notion of deliberately allowing Obamacare to kick in for ‘the nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth’—and make no mistake, once in place, this is no piker of a $20 billion Clean Water bill loaded with ‘waste and lard’—is yet another example of finding only rabbits in the GOP when tigers are needed.

Those who are shrinking from defunding Obamacare are Thatcher’s ‘false squires.’ They are Reagan’s ‘rabbits’ for whom retreat since the very dawn of the Progressive era has been not about tactics—as the objections to defunding ObamaCare are presented—but about retreat as, Thatcher’s sentiments again, a settled, soul-eating policy.

Viewed through the eyes and actions of Reagan and Thatcher, the reasoning behind the GOP Establishment panic over defunding ObamaCare comes clear. It’s the 1987 Clean Water bill reaction all over again.

‘The dumbest idea I’ve ever heard,’ said North Carolina GOP Senator Richard Burr of Lee’s proposal to defund Obamacare, channeling the ghost of Gerald Ford.

Congressman Tom Cole of Oklahoma, a member of Speaker John Boehner’s leadership team, dismissed the proposal as a ‘temper tantrum’ and likened it to ‘blackmail’:

‘Seems to me there’s appropriate ways to deal with the law (It is not the law! It was and is unconstitutional and no Supreme Court decision can clean up sewage!—my addition), but shutting down the government to get your way over an unrelated piece of legislation is political equivalent of throwing a temper tantrum. It’s just not helpful. And it is the sort of thing that creates a backlash and could cost the Republicans the majority in the House, which is after all the last line of defense against the president. And it could materially undercut the ability of the Republicans in the Senate to have the majority in 2014 which they have a decent chance to do.

And Karl Rove.

But of course, Karl Rove.

Said Rove to Sean Hannity about the Lee defunding proposal:

‘You know what? I’m suspect about it because it gives the president the bully pulpit and a gigantic stick on which to beat us, because all he has to do is say, ‘Look, this law was passed, it’s on the books. I’m going to veto your continuing resolution that doesn’t fund Obamacare, and it’s on you for shutting down the government (No! It is on the President! Defunding Obamacare will not shut down the government! If Obama chooses to do so, that is his choice! Isn’t the Democrat Party the Party of Choice? His choice!—my addition) .’

Then Rove took to The O’Reilly Factor last night, going on about discretionary spending, funding bills, and how defunding Obamacare was a ‘political loser.’ Yada, yada, yada. Said Rove, in language that spelled ‘rabbit’ to Reagan and ‘wet’ to Thatcher, ‘being conservative doesn’t mean you do something that blows up in your face.’

This is rabbit lore. This is exactly how the government winds up expanding when Republicans are running the government. This is precisely why both Reagan and Thatcher had such disdain for the conservative rabbits in their respective conservative political parties.

Adding fuel to this fire, Erick Erickson over at Red State has learned of this Rove business:

‘Karl Rove’s Crossroads group commissioned a poll by North Star Opinion Research. The poll found most Americans do not want the GOP to block ‘health care reform.’ That’s right, Crossroads repeatedly called Obamacare ‘the healthcare reform law’ and was shocked to find people oppose stopping reform. Go figure.

But that poll has been circulated to Republican leaders and they have soiled themselves over it. That is why Mitch McConnell will not support Mike Lee’s strategy to draw a line in the sand against funding Obamacare. That is why John Cornyn withdrew his name from Mike Lee’s letter. That is why Richard Burr of North Carolina calls defunding Obamacare ‘stupid.’’

Run, rabbits! Run!

Whether over here at Bloomberg (‘The Disastrous Plan to Defund ObamaCare’ by Ramesh Ponnuru) or over there at the New York Times (‘Going for Bolingbroke’ by Ross Douthat) or even on Fox (here where the normally astute Charles Krauthammer derails and calls the effort ‘really dumb’), the idea of actually doing something about Obamacare as opposed to repeatedly holding fruitless ‘repeal’ votes in the House has struck terror in the hearts of Establishmentarian Republicans and conservatives.

What Messrs. Burr, Cole, and Rove and all the rest (that all the rest is suspected to include Speaker Boehner and Senate GOP Leader McConnell) are exhibiting is the core problem at the root of the decline of the Republican Party. A decline Reagan—and Thatcher in Britain, tigers both—spent a career fighting, not coincidentally winding up winning elections and ratings as a great American president and British prime minister respectively (Can you imagine Abraham Lincoln taking the same approach to slavery as the current leadership is taking towards defunding Obamacare? We would still have slavery today!—my addition).

The problem at the heart of the GOP—in Congress and elsewhere—is that once again the GOP has, as Reagan once observed, far more ‘rabbits’ than ‘tigers.’

This latest bout of intellectual rot decidedly did not take hold, as Thomas B. Edsall wrote in the New York Times, with the rise of talk radio or the release in 1992 of Rush Limbaugh’s bestselling book The Way Things Ought to Be. That is an absolutely absurd premise.

This decline—and it is no accident—tracks exactly with the end of the Reagan presidency and the return/rise of the moderate wing of the Republican Party that coincided with the 1988 election of Reagan’s vice president, George H.W. Bush. Bush, who campaigned for the GOP nomination as Reagan’s heir, was decidedly, upon election, anything but. He immediately set about a restoration of the Establishment wing of the party that had been defeated by Reagan. Four years later, in 1992, the Establishment Bush (one of the most decent of men, a sterling human being, and genuine war hero but politically speaking a hopeless Establishment moderate) lost the White House with a humiliating 37% of the vote. Yet the GOP Establishment has been in the saddle ever since, with the momentous if brief exception of the 1994 Newt Gingrich-led congressional version of the Reagan Revolution.

President Bush 43, again a thoroughly decent man who was nothing if not the personification of courage in the wake of 9/11, similarly bought into the Stockholm syndrome that is GOP Establishment Republicanism—the so-called ‘compassionate conservatism’ that almost lost him the White House in 2000 and barely enabled his re-election in 2004. And the other losing GOP nominees—Dole, McCain, and Romney—were similarly moderate Establishment leaders and good men yet were utterly incapable of energizing the conservative base.

Today, Texas Senator Ted Cruz calls the American version of the wets—or as Reagan called them the ‘rabbits’ or ‘fraternal order’ or ‘pale pastel’ Republicans—‘the Surrender Caucus.’

Reagan in particular would surely have gotten a chuckle out of Cruz’s further note to Hannity on the latter’s radio show that the liberal media likes their Republicans ‘timid and house trained.’ Reagan would have thoroughly agreed.

One need only take a look at the recent Thomas Edsall column in the New York Times to see the Republican rabbit psychology at work. Edsall, now a professor of journalism at Columbia University, was a longtime reporter for the Washington Post. The column was titled ‘Has the GOP Gone Off the Deep End?’

Perhaps it should have recycled the title of the old John Updike novel Rabbit, Run. Or another—Rabbitt Redux.

Why?

Because, of course, nothing has changed in all these decades.

Nothing.

The column is filled with decades-old Establishment GOP bromides about conservatives.

It leads with the tale of an aide to ex-New York GOP Governor George Pataki who tweeted that if the GOP House defeated the Senate immigration bill ‘I’ve decided to leave my political home of 32 years #sad.’

Sad? How about laughable. Not that this ex-Pataki lieutenant would have a clue, but Reagan himself was asked in that December, 1976 article about the idea that another New York Republican would leave the GOP if Reagan succeeded in his stated goal of, as the Times reported it, saving the party from ‘extinction’ by ‘acting quickly to assert the party’s ideological identity.’ That Republican was New York’s senior United States Senator—Jacob Javits. Said Reagan about the possibility of Javits leaving the Republican Party:

‘Senator Javits might have some problems staying within the party. Again, however, we are not ushering anyone out of the party. We are simply saying, ‘What does our party stand for?’ If the great majority agrees with the philosophy, and some say it’s a philosophy they can’t go along with, that’s a decision for every individual to make. A political party is not a fraternal order.

As events turned out, New York Republicans rejected Javits in the state’s 1980 Senate primary in favor of the more conservative Alfonse D’Amato. Javits ran in the fall with the Liberal Party nomination—and lost. By the time Reagan was sworn in as president in January of 1981, D’Amato was sitting in the Javits Senate seat.

The rest of the Edsall article beyond the party-leaving Pataki aide?

There’s nothing that hasn’t been said by angry Establishment Republicans of conservatives—not to mention Reagan himself—for decades.

Conservatives are rigid. They can’t win. (This is always an amusing charge considering the absolutely miserable winning record of Establishment presidential candidates.) They have an ‘orthodoxy that doesn’t allow for disagreement (It is called principles!—my addition),’ says Jeb Bush. A GOP House and Senate staffer named Mike Lofgren is quoted from back in September 2011 (notably on a liberal website) as saying the GOP is becoming like ‘an apocalyptic cult, or one of the intensely ideological authoritarian parties of 20th century Europe.’

My favorite in this list of nonsense? John Feehery, a former GOP House staffer turned lobbyist, drags out that old chestnut that was used by Gerald Ford against Reagan—the charge that Reagan was the candidate of ‘government by nostalgia (How about government by the Constitution!—my addition).’ Says Edsall of Feehery on Tea Party House members:

‘These members of the House are what Feehery describes as ‘nostalgia’ Republicans who define conservatism as ‘the ability to fight progress (By definition progress in and of itself is neither good or bad! It is just change! Some change is good! Some change is EVIL!—my addition).’

Progress, you see? Moving Left to the GOP is always ‘progress.’

All this fuss by GOP Establishment types about defunding Obamacare?

The GOP has been there and done that.

Over at Breitbart, Matthew Boyle takes note that:

‘Polling data obtained exclusively by Breitbart News shows that self-identified conservative and GOP likely voters want their representatives in Congress replaced if they vote in favor of funding Obamacare, even if they had voted against the law in the past.’

Surprise, surprise.

Mark Levin has challenged the Establishment wisdom per Karl Rove that if Obamacare is just left alone it will ‘collapse on its own (Just like slavery did!—my addition).’

‘When has a law ever collapsed?’ Levin asks—making the same point as Reagan. Laws—government programs—don’t collapse. They are in fact the closest thing to eternal life on earth.

Don’t defund Obamacare?

This isn’t even about defunding ObamaCare.

As Ronald Reagan knew all those years ago, what the argument over defunding ObamaCare is really about is another much more serious problem entirely.

That real problem?

The GOP Establishment has more rabbits than tigers.”

Here is a fact: Do NOT EVER compromise with EVIL! Do NOT EVER capitulate to EVIL! Obamacare is, pure and simple, EVIL! It REQUIRES government money, our money to be used to MURDER unborn babies! It REQUIRES individuals and businesses to buy insurance that MURDERS unborn babies and pays for it with government money, our money! ANYONE who votes to fund Obamacare is voting to fund EVIL! That is the black and white of it! There are NO shades of gray! The Republican Party needs to get a backbone and stand up to EVIL!

“Kermit Gosnell is Not an Outlier

Kermit Gosnell’s “house of horrors” abortion clinic in Philadelphia is not an outlier. Reports from across the nation reveal that such vile conditions are endemic to the abortion industry as a whole.

Download the PDF Version (Updated 7/24/13)

Delaware – Complete Failure to Regulate Abortion Clinics and Practitioners

2013  On April 10, WPVI-TV ABC News in Philadelphia, PA reported that two former nurses at the Planned Parenthood of Delaware abortion clinic quit their jobs, citing unsafe, unsanitary conditions, and “a meat-market style of assembly-line abortions.”[1]
On May 29, Jayne Mitchell-Werbrich and Joyce Vasikonis testified before the Delaware state senate and called the clinic conditions “ridiculously unsafe,” and said women were at risk for hepatitis and even AIDS.
Planned Parenthood Delaware has suspended surgical abortion procedures at their Wilmington and Dover clinics as a result of ongoing investigations by the state Division of Professional Regulation and the state Division of Public Health.[2]
Planned Parenthood of Delaware has sent five women to the hospital with complications from botched abortions since January alone.[3]
Disgraced former Planned Parenthood Delaware abortionist Dr. Timothy Liveright is shown to be operating in clinics in New Jersey,[4] Pennsylvania[5], and California.[6]

2011
  Kermit Gosnell was also an abortion provider in Delaware, where abortion facilities are not subject to inspections.
After news of Gosnell’s case broke, fellow abortion providers Drs. Albert Dworkin and Arturo Apolinario had their licenses suspended for failing to report Gosnell for performing late-term abortions at Atlantic Women’s Medical Services in Wilmington, DE, where he worked one day a week.[7]
Apolinario, like Gosnell, is charged with prescribing drugs illegally.[8]
Both Atlantic Women’s Medical clinic locations were permanently closed (before a hearing could take place) after an agreement was reached between the Delaware Board of Medical Licensure and Discipline and clinic owner Panzy Myrie, a woman who portrayed herself as a medical doctor in advertisements - though she holds no license in Delaware.[9]
Both clinics were members of the National Abortion Federation until the details of their abuses came to the attention of the news media.

Maryland – Death at the Hands of Notorious Late-Term Abortionist Leroy Carhart, Clinic Shut- Downs, Unlicensed Abortionist Operating Out-of-State

2013 On February 7, Jennifer McKenna Morbelli, a 29-year-old kindergarten teacher from New Rochelle, NY, died “due to or as a consequence of Amniotic Fluid Embolism following Medical Termination of Pregnancy.” The medical examiner’s office confirmed that a botched 33-week abortion killed Mrs. Morbelli.[10]
When she was 31 weeks pregnant, Mrs. Morbelli sought an abortion from Dr. Leroy Carhart in Germantown, MD. Carhart left town shortly after the abortion procedure and was reportedly unavailable when Mrs. Morbelli began to experience shortness of breath and chest pains - which led to a delay in her emergency care.[11]

In March, the Maryland Department of Health and Hygiene suspended the licenses of three surgical abortion clinics. All three are affiliated with abortion business owner Steven Chase Brigham.[12]
Inspections of the abortion clinics revealed they were continuing to violate state health and safety laws after the initial violations that prompted the state investigations in the first place.
After a brief period of being reopened, in May the clinics once again lost their licenses after inspectors discovered that all clinics routinely administered the drug Misoprostol to cause abortions in women who were past 11 weeks gestation, "even if the patient has not be evaluated by a physician, and even if no physician is available on site."[13]

In April 2010, an 18-year-old New Jersey woman was critically injured during an abortion at a clinic in Elkton, MD and was airlifted to Baltimore hospital from Brigham’s facility.[14]
The Maryland Board of Physicians found that the woman, who was 21 weeks pregnant, had first been treated in Voorhees, N.J., where her cervix was dilated. She was then told to drive 60 miles in her car to Elkton, MD, so doctors could complete the abortion[15].
After the woman's uterus ruptured, state officials said, the woman was put into Brigham's rented Chevrolet Malibu and driven to Union Hospital in Elkton.
The Maryland Board of Physicians stated that the patient was slumped in a wheelchair, nearly unconscious, outside the emergency room while Riley argued with hospital staff, who demanded their identities before treating the woman. Elkton police searched the clinic but could not find medical records for the woman.
During the search, police did find 35 late-term fetuses, some 20 to 35 weeks old, in a freezer.
The abortionists involved, Dr. Nicola Riley and Dr. Steven Chase Brigham are now prohibited from practicing in the state. Dr. Riley's medical license was suspended in September 2010 by Maryland authorities. Dr. Brigham, who did not even have a Maryland license, was barred from practicing in the state.
Both abortionists had previously lost their licenses to practice medicine or run clinics in other states, including New York and Pennsylvania. At the Associates in OB/GYN Care LLC on North Calvert Street in Baltimore, where one patient suffered a fatal cardiac arrest, the physician was not certified in CPR and a defibrillator at the facility did not work, according to state officials in a letter to the General Assembly. The other two clinics that lost surgical privileges, located in Landover and Silver Spring, are also owned by Associates in OB/GYN Care and also had licenses suspended for issues related to the ability to respond to life-threatening problems during surgery.[16]
In November 2011, late-term abortionist James S. Pendergraft and his accomplice Harold O. Alexander were caught operating an illicit late-term abortion mill in Forestville, MD through the website www.LateTermAbortion.net. Pendergraft – who is not licensed in Maryland – was caught on tape.[17] On August 22, 2012 the Maryland State Board of Physicians suspended Harold O. Alexander’s license for a minimum of three months.[18]

Pennsylvania – Gosnell’s House of Horrors and Clinic Shut Downs

2013 On May 13 abortionist Kermit Gosnell was found guilty of the murder of three newborn children and the negligent death of one patient.[19]
He had been charged with eight counts of murder including seven babies who were born alive and then killed with scissors. Prosecutors said that he made millions of dollars over 30 years, performing as many illegal, late-term abortions as he could. [20]


2012
   American Women's Services, Pittsburgh[21], and Allentown Medical Services, Allentown[22], closed because complaints revealed violations that could not be fixed. The Department of Health said that the former owner of Allentown Medical Services, Dr. Steven Chase Brigham, “showed a ‘serial’ disregard for health regulations.”[23]
Allegheny Women's Center closed rather than meet the inspection regulations.[24]


2011
   Following Gosnell, Pennsylvania has once again been inspecting abortion clinics. Multiple facilities have shut down due to failure to meet the regulations. In 2011, Abortion as an Alternative Inc., which had clinics in Bensalem and Philadelphia, closed.[25]
The clinics were operated by Dr. Soleiman M. Soli. The Department of Health found “drugs decades past their expiration dates, inadequate or inoperable equipment, poor record-keeping and mishandling of fetal tissue.”[26]
Allentown Medical Services in Allentown was cited for “preparing to use unsterilized instruments on patients, having drugs and single-use devices that were past their expiration dates, and for splattering blood on the walls and on the floor of a scrub room freezer.”[27]


2009
   On November 19, Karnamaya Mongar, a 41-year-old immigrant from Bhutan, and a Virginia resident, died as a result of an abortion she received at the hands of now infamous Philadelphia abortionist Dr. Kermit Gosnell. The medical examiner’s report indicates that Mrs. Mongar died as a result of an overdose of Demerol.[28]
Mongar was 19 weeks pregnant and had been referred to Dr. Gosnell’s facility by a Washington, D.C. area abortion clinic.[29]
A Gosnell clinic worker assisted in administering local anesthesia and when Mongar’s face turned gray and her breathing slowed, Gosnell continued to perform the abortion and did not order that 911 be called until after the procedure was finished.[30]
Gosnell could not resuscitate Mrs. Mongar himself as his defibrillator was broken.[31]


Virginia – 80 Violations Even with Notice of Inspection

2013  Nova Women’s Health Center, the busiest abortion clinic in Virginia, closed when its lease was terminated via a lawsuit by the property owners on the grounds that the abortion clinic created a nuisance. According to the lawsuit filings, Nova patients were regularly inside the building “lying down in corridors…and, in some instances, even vomiting.” One filing said witnesses would testify that this was a daily occurrence.[32]


2012

   Virginia Health Commission inspection reports obtained by The Family Foundation through the Freedom of Information Act reveal unsafe and “utterly disgusting” conditions in Virginia abortion clinics.[33]
Blood-stained medical equipment and operating tables (Falls Church Healthcare Center, Falls Church)[34]
A doctor doing exams with unwashed hands (Alexandria)[35]
Improper disposal of fetal remains including frozen blood and remains at the bottom of the freezer, after contents had spilled out of a unclosed plastic bag (Tidewater Women’s Health Clinic, Norfolk)[36]
Staff failure to disinfect blood-stained equipment and recovery cots between patients (Roanoke Medical Center for Women, Roanoke)[37]
Splattered, dried blood in different colors and thickness on exam table and between exam table cushions (Roanoke Medical Center for Women, Roanoke)[38]
Improper storage and dispersion of drugs (Falls Church Healthcare Center, Falls Church)[39]
Staff failure to properly sanitize equipment and distinguish between dirty and clean instruments (Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Virginia, Virginia Beach)[40] The director of Tidewater Women’s Health Clinic in Norfolk, Dr. David Peters, claimed that the inspectors’ observations were flat wrong and none of the violations affected patient care. The violations found at his clinic included spilled blood and “products of conception” (fetal remains) being stored in the freezer.[41]

2009
  Abortionist Mi Yong Kim of Nova Women’s Health Center performed an abortion on a woman with an ectopic pregnancy. Although the woman was told the procedure was successful and was sent home, the ectopic pregnancy later ruptured and caused a painful, life-threatening emergency for the woman. [42]


2007
   The state Board of Health reported evidence of negligence and abuse at Nova Women’s Health Center clinic including: failing to provide follow-up care, keeping inadequate records, and improperly handling and dispensing drugs. Mi Yong Kim was forced to surrender her medical license, but continued to operate the clinic. [43]


2002
   A patient died as a result of an air embolism at the hands of Mi Yong Kim. Kim improperly sedated the woman, failed to realize the patient went into cardiac arrest, and subsequently did not attempt to resuscitate her.[44]


New Jersey – License Suspended in Bi-State Abortions, Planned Parenthood Sex-Trafficking Scandal

2011  Planned Parenthood in Mercer County, NJ was inspected and found to be in non-compliance with safety regulations.
The state Board of Health found several violations including: improper use of syringes and compounds, improper training and qualifications of staff on pain management and health care counseling (including abortion services), failure to have infection control program in place, failure to require physical exam for staff and failure to test staff for rubella, rubella and TB tests, improper use and sterilization of medical instruments and devices, including a vaginal ultrasound, failure to maintain hot running water in patient care areas, and many more.[45]

In February of 2011, an employee of Planned Parenthood of Central Jersey, in Perth Amboy, NJ, was caught on videotape by Live Action aiding and abetting an undercover investigator posing as a sex trafficker of minor girls as young as 13.
Amy Woodruff referred the alleged pimp and prostitute to the Metropolitan Medical Association if ever in need of an abortion where “their protocols aren’t as strict as ours and they don’t get audited the same way that we do.”[46]
When asked how long after the abortion until the girls can engage in sex again, Woodruff says “minimum of 2 weeks.” When asked what the girls could do to make money, Woodruff advises, “Waist up, or just be that extra action walking by.”[47]
Woodruff was fired after Live Action’s investigation became public.[48]

2010
  Steven Chase Brigham, who has operated facilities in Maryland, loses his only remaining medical license when the New Jersey Board of Medical Examiners suspends it, calling him “a clear and imminent danger to public health.” In 1996, New Jersey regulators try to revoke Brigham's license for botching bi-state abortions. An administrative judge reinstates the license.[49]


2007
   Metropolitan Medical Associates in Englewood, NJ, a late term abortion clinic, was shut down for botching an abortion and almost killing a woman. When the state went in, they found filthy and unsanitary conditions and shut down the clinic. It later reopened.[50]

West Virginia- Abortionist Forcibly Aborts, Leave Fetal Remains Inside Mother

2013 Itai Gravely, a 26-year-old woman, filed suit against the Women’s Health Center of West Virginia and abortionist Rodney Lee Stephens after Stephens allegedly forced Ms. Gravely to proceed with an abortion against her will and then left her dead baby’s head inside her womb.[51]
Ms. Gravely changed her mind about the abortion after adequate anesthesia could not be administered.
Dr. Stephens ordered clinic workers to physically restrain Ms. Gravely as he proceeded with the abortion.
The next day, Ms. Gravely was rushed to the emergency room where it was discovered that dismembered body parts, including the head, of her child had been left in her womb.

North Carolina – Dead Insects, Dirty Instruments and Improper Drug Use

2013 On July 5, the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services ordered The Baker Clinic for Women, an abortion clinic in Durham, to close after finding safety violations.
The clinic failed to ensure quality control was performed in blood banking and also failed to perform quality control testing on 108 patients that received Rhesus testing.

On May 13, 2013, A Preferred Women's Health Center abortion clinic in Charlotte was closed after state officials revoked its license to operate on May 10, calling it emergency action to address "an imminent threat to the health and safety of patients."[52]
Previously last December, inspectors from the N.C. Dept. of Health and Human Services found dead insects, blood splatters and dirty surgical instruments inside the abortion facility.[53]
This time, they found that the facility was improperly administering chemical abortions and improperly examining post-abortive women before they were discharged from surgery. Women were being told to drink methotrexate, originally a chemotherapy drug now also used to abort a baby at less than 9 weeks gestation, when it is supposed to be administered by injection.[54]

Illinois – The Death of Tonya Reaves

2012 On July 20, 24-year-old Tonya Reaves died following a second-trimester abortion at a Chicago Planned Parenthood.[55]
Autopsy results reveal that Ms. Reaves died as a result of a hemorrhage following a botched surgical abortion. The autopsy reported that she was a healthy woman at the time of her abortion but that she suffered an “extensive” perforation of her broad uterine ligament with a possible severing of her left uterine artery as a result of the abortion procedure.[56]
The autopsy also revealed that the abortion was incomplete as the medical examiner discovered that pieces of placenta had been left attached to her womb, despite the dilation and evacuation (D & E) abortion performed by Planned Parenthood. Reports indicate that Planned Parenthood ignored instructions by an emergency dispatcher to call 911.[57]


Michigan – Decrepit Clinics Shut Down, Criminal Abortionist Covered by Board of Medicine

2013  In January 2013, an abortion clinic in Muskegon, MI was shut down by the fire marshal over conditions the city described as potentially “dangerous to human life or the public welfare.”[58]
Dr. Robert Alexander’s abortion clinic was closed after police discovered "filthy" and unsanitary conditions throughout the clinic, including “blood on the floor and walls in multiple locations.”[59]
Photos taken by the police reveal unsanitary conditions, including stained medical equipment near an examination chair, trash near lab equipment and discarded in a storage room, and water stains and holes in a leaky ceiling. The investigator also reported “blood dripping from a sink p-trap in a room used by patients.”[60]
Other violations noted in the fire marshal’s inspection include improper disposal of syringes and needles, unsterilized medical equipment, as well as the “dumping of chemicals and other liquids down drains without proper authorization and approvals.”[61]
In May, local media reported that in 2009, the Michigan Board of Medicine received a complaint about botched abortions at Alexander’s clinic, including one that ruptured a woman’s uterus, causing bleeding but still resulted in the birth of a live child, but the board did not investigate it.
Then Michigan Board Chairman Dr. George Shade Jr., Alexander’s mentor, determined that no investigation was necessary.
Dr. Alexander served prison time in the 1990’s for selling illegal prescriptions.[62]
Two more Michigan clinics (in Livonia and Detroit) were closed in March. Both clinics were owned and operated by abortionist Dr. Reginald Sharpe. The Livonia clinic was exposed several years ago for the dumping of fetal remains in a dumpster outside the facility.[63]
Dr. Sharpe’s medical license was suspended in 2005 for performing an abortion beyond 24 weeks.
Dr. Sharpe was sued in 2008 after his 26-year-old patient died of complications following her abortion. It was later revealed that the abortion had resulted in the perforation of the woman’s uterus, cut a uterine blood vessel, and lacerated her intestines and liver.[64]

2010

  In February 2010, the bodies of 17 aborted babies were discovered in a business dumpster outside the WomansChoice abortion clinic near Lansing. Investigations revealed that the owners were Richard and Maggie Remund, owners of another clinic where the bodies of 47 aborted babies were discovered in a dumpster in 1989[65].
Additionally, the business dumpster contained medical records, including patient logs with full names and insurance information, bloody surgical material, and used urine specimen cups labeled with the names of the patients.


2009
  In March 2009, the Board of Medicine found several of the staff (including abortionist Dr. Alberto Hodari) to been negligent in the shocking 2003 death of Regina Johnson and they were fined[66].
7 months later, a Bureau of Health Systems inspection found the Womancare of Southfield to be substandard.
The clinic was cited for incompliance with state surgical facility standards, including no oxygen available for patients, no emergency call system, and an insufficient recovery room.
Between 2007 and 2009, the Bureau of Health Systems cited 3 abortion clinics licensed as free standing surgical facilities (Birth Control Center Inc. in Sterling Heights, Feminine Health Care of Flint, and Womancare of Southfield) for noncompliance with state regulations for surgical facilities regarding the administration and storage of medication.
Violations at the Womancare Clinic were found to be especially deplorable during a 2009 inspection[67]. Violations included:
No physician’s order for a medication that had been sent home with a patient and no physician signature verifying several other medication orders.
Hallway cupboards with medications and an unsecured refrigerator with medications in patient areas where patients are left unattended.
Unsecured medications included Ketamine, a controlled substance often sold illegally as a “club drug” and used as a date-rape drug.
Narcotics logs were insufficient or nonexistent.

The Bureau of Health Systems conducted 3 onsite surveys of abortion clinics (Birth Control Center Inc. in Sterling Heights, Feminine Health Care of Flint, and Womancare of Southfield) from 2007 to 2009.
All three were cited for non-compliance with state surgical facility requirements regarding equipment sterilization, maintenance of sterile environment, and sterile pre-operation hand washing.
In one startling example, at the Birth Control Center Inc. in Sterling Heights, the abortionist Richard Goldfine scrubbed his hands for procedures in a sink which was holding unsterile equipment used for emptying and processing waste and fetal remains.[68]

A 20-year-old woman, Caitlin Bruce, alleges that Dr. Alberto Hodari of the Feminine Health Care clinic in Flint performed an abortion on her even though she screamed for him to stop[69].
Ms. Bruce claims that she told him to stop that she didn’t want to have the abortion anymore[70].
Ms. Bruce asserts she was held down and her mouth was covered by a staff member.

In 2009, a Grand Rapids Ob/Gyn filed an allegation against abortionist Robert Alexander citing his gross negligence in attempting an abortion on a woman who was 26 weeks pregnant[71].
The OB/Gyn treated the patient who came into the hospital still pregnant following the incomplete abortion.
The patient told the OB/Gyn that Dr. Alexander’s office had called her multiple times to offer her a refund of the abortion fee, plus an additional $200.
The woman did not accept and retained an attorney.


2008

  It was uncovered in 2008 that abortion clinics in the Detroit area were disposing of biohazard waste and patient records simply by dumping them in common trash receptacles[72].
Three locations (WomanCare of Southfield in Lathrup Village, WomanCare in Sterling Heights, and WomanCare of Downriver in Southgate) had bloody surgical material and a total of over 200 patient records in the trash. These patient records included photocopies of drivers’ licenses, insurance forms, and lab reports.
The Lathrup Village location had the remains of 18 aborted babies in the trash.
At the Woman’s Choice Clinic in Lansing, Dr. Ronald Nichols was in the middle of performing an abortion when he determined the gestational age to be 20 weeks and stopped the procedure, despite already having rupturing the fetal membranes[73].
Dr. Nichols advised the patient, who was bleeding and in pain, to drive 80 miles to his Bloomfield Hills abortion clinic to complete procedure.
When she refused, Nichols forced her to sign a waiver.
Patient drove home and was taken by her family to the hospital where the staff confirmed the rupture of fetal membranes.
The patient’s 20.5 week baby died in utero the following day.
The Board of Medicine found Nichols to be negligent and incompetent, fined him $10,000, and ordered him to perform 100 hours of community service.
At the Womancare Clinic of Southfield, a patient alleges that she received no local anesthesia and tried to stop procedure due to her extreme pain[74].
The patient was allegedly held down and female assistant put hand over the patient’s mouth.

Ohio – More Clinic Shutdowns and Staff Failure

2013 In April 2013, the Ohio Department of Health announced its intent to shut down Capital Care Network abortion clinic in Cuyahoga Falls due to multiple health and safety violations. During Capital Care’s annual inspection, investigators cited multiple violations under 10 various inspection categories ranging from cleanliness, surgical procedures and staff requirements.[75]
Among many violations, the abortion facility failed to perform TB testing, used unqualified and untrained staff, failed to meet sanitary standards and failed to properly keep patient documentation and had dozens of other operational and medical failures.[76]


Louisiana – More Connections to Gosnell

2010  The Delta Clinic of Baton Rouge is the former employer of Gosnell employee, Eileen O’Neill, who was also arrested in Philadelphia.[77] O’Neill was introduced to Gosnell by Delta’s owner, Leroy Brinkley, who also owned Atlantic Women’s Services in Wilmington, Delaware.[78]
In 2010, the Delta Clinic was accused by the Department of Health and Hospitals of failing to ensure the clinic had a “quality assurance program.” The report indicated that the clinic did not provide women adequate protections for their privacy and did not monitor patients receiving sedation “regarding their cardiac status, respiratory status and level of consciousness during the medical procedure.”[79]


Texas – Worse than Kermit Gosnell, Barbaric Photographic Evidence of Abortion’s Brutality

2013  In May, Operation Rescue released a report revealing that 3 former staff members of the Aaron Women’s Clinic in Houston had come forward with evidence of horrific late term abortions conducted by abortionist Douglas Karpen[80].
The informants provided photographic evidence (taken on their cell phones) of illegal late-term abortions[81].
The photos depicted two babies aborted well beyond the legal limit of 24 weeks in Texas. Their necks had been cut. The physical condition of the babies reveals that it is likely that the babies had already been born when they killed. Testimony from the former workers indicates that Dr. Karpen was committing both very late term abortions and infanticide. Patients would be administered doses of Cytotec, a drug that causes strong and unpredictable uterine contractions, to induce labor and then the abortion would take place.
“When he did an abortion, especially an over 20 week abortion, most of the time the fetus would come completely out before he cut the spinal cord or he introduced one of the instruments into the soft spot of the fetus, in order to kill the fetus,” stated former surgical assistant Deborah Edge. According to Edge, babies born alive were a common occurrence.
According to Edge, sometimes Karpen would kill the babies by “twisting the head off the neck.”
The whistle blowers also contend that numerous other abuses took place at Aaron Women’s Clinic including:
Falsification of ultrasounds to produce younger fetal ages of babies over the legal limit or older fetal ages to extract more money out of women.
Fraudulent billing practices.
Surgical equipment not properly sterilized and reuse of disposable instruments.
Unqualified workers drawing and administering drugs.
Hiring nurses through a temp agency to work only on days when inspections are scheduled.
Mistreating and inappropriately touching women while under sedation.
Sexual harassment. The Harris County District Attorney’s office has announced that they are currently investigating the matter[82].
Records obtained by Texas Right to Life[83] reveal that 14 Texas abortion clinics have been cited for serious health violations between July 2011 - 2012. Violations included:
Unsecured, open vials and unlabeled syringes were stored throughout abortion facilities.
Methotrexate, a dangerous drug used for abortion, was left open, unsecured, and unlocked in a room, in violation of state and federal law.
Instrument packages in a treatment room had broken sterile seals and vials containing Lidocaine were not sterile.
Patient records indicating that patients were released without vital signs being taken.
Expired equipment and medications being used.

2011
  The Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (TCEQ) found in June that Whole Women’s Health of Austin abortion had improperly disposed of fetuses[84][85].
The clinic had sent the aborted babies to a medical waste contractor, which subjected them to steam disinfection along with other medical waste generated at the facility. The contractor then sent the waste to a landfill.
The law forbids human body parts, fetuses or products of abortions from being disposed of in landfills. TCEQ also cited Whole Women’s Health in McAllen, TX in September 2011 for the improper disposal of human remains after the discovery of unborn babies in dumpsters outside the clinic[86].
Private medical records were also discovered in the dumpsters.

Arizona – Abortionist convicted of Sexual Abuse and Inappropriate Conduct

2003 Dr. Brian Finkel was convicted on 22 counts of sexually abusing patients over 17 years. During Finkel's three-month trial, a parade of victims told of sexual abuse that included twisting their nipples, kissing them or fondling them inappropriately during exams. Finkel performed more than 30,000 abortions over the past 20 years and was a national figure in the 1990s through his frequent appearances on network talk shows.[87]


Florida – Late-Term Abortionist Who Has Failed to Protect Babies Born Alive Continues to Operate

2013  The Florida Board of Medicine indefinitely suspended the medical license of late-term abortionist James Scott Pendergraft, and closed one of his Orlando abortion clinics.
After merely paying a fine, Pendergraft re-opened his abortion clinic. It now performs abortions seven days a week. [88]


2011
   Pendergraft owns five late-term abortion clinics in Florida and had his medical license suspended five times for repeated botched abortions.[89]
Pendergraft's medical license is also suspended in Virginia, and expired in Maryland and the District of Columbia.[90]
In July 2011, Pendergraft, who has also been convicted of “attempted extortion …mail fraud ... conspiracy to commit extortion, mail-fraud, and perjury[91],” was party to a lawsuit in which the jury awarded a plaintiff $36.7 million. The lawsuit stemmed from a 2001 botched abortion in which a baby girl was born alive and has suffered lifelong handicaps.[92]
He employs abortionists throughout the state of Florida who do late-term abortions for $2,000 and up and the abortions take place even while his own license is under suspension.[93] Pendergraft’s associate, Randall Whitney has testified that babies have been born alive and delivered in the toilet all the time and many times are “still alive, wiggling around in the toilet.”[94]


2005
   WORLD Magazine reported that an abortion at one of Pendergraft’s clinics resulted in a woman giving birth to a “live pre-term baby” who died “after abortion workers refused to render aid or call for emergency help.”[95]
The woman saw her baby curl up as though cold, then “screamed for clinic workers to call 911”. When they wouldn’t a friend of the woman who had undergone the abortion called 911 on her cell phone.[96]

Alabama- Botched Abortions and Clinics Operating Illegally

2012 In January 2012 in Birmingham, New Woman All Women abortion facility sent three women with botched abortions to the hospital[97]. Paramedics had to hand-lift a partially clad woman from a narrow doorway and down several steps to an awaiting gurney because New Woman All Women did not have a gurney-accessible entrance.
The Alabama Department of Public Health issued a 76-page deficiency report[98], citing, among other violations:
Clinic staff was not properly trained to provide safe quality patient care.
Failure to have policy and procedures related to medication errors and the administration of medications. This resulted in the hospitalization of three abortion patients on January 21, 2012, with one patient placed in ICU.
There was no documentation that the two abortionists employed by Derzis were even qualified to do abortions.
Abortionists made illegible notations on patient charts that made determining critical information about patient care impossible. In several cases, the abortionist’s notes about patient care and/or condition were completely false.
Lack of documentation of medications administered.
Inaccurate preparation and administration drugs resulting in overdoses or inadequate pain management.
Use of equipment with inspection dates from 2007 or no inspection date at all.
Failure of on-call nurse to return patient calls, document correct dates on reports, or notify the physician of patient problems.
In April 2012, the health department announced that New Woman All Women had been ordered to surrender its license by no later than May 18, 2012, noting that the Alabama Department of Public Health “performed a comprehensive investigation of New Woman All Women Health Care in Birmingham in response to a complaint received in January 2012. This investigation revealed significant failures in maintaining compliance with the Rules of the Alabama State Board of Health for the safe and effective provision of care[99].”
New Woman All Women illegally re-opened[100], despite the state’s denial of its two applications to reopen for business on August 27, 2012 and September 17, 2012. On March 19, 2013, the Alabama Department of Public Health announced that it was conducting an investigation into whether New Woman All Women was operating as an unlicensed abortion/reproductive health center[101]. On March 26, 2013, the state sued to shut down New Woman All Women, saying that the facility was acting as an abortion provider without a license.
On May 31, 2013, New Woman All Women owner Diane Derzis withdrew her motion to dismiss the case, which had argued that the Alabama Department of Public Health had no jurisdiction to enforce health and safety regulations[102].
A hearing is set for August 5, 2013[103]. In 2012, Roberta Clark filed charges against Planned Parenthood for negligence for a botched abortion after the abortionist failed to diagnose her tubal pregnancy, which ruptured 25 days later and required emergency surgery. Clark is now infertile[104].
“Clark was given a suction abortion, after which she continued to complain of nausea, vomiting, and pelvic pain. The pathology report that indicated no fetal parts were identified in the tissue specimen that had been submitted for inspection that same day. Clark was not informed of this nor is there a record of her receiving any follow-up care from [abortionist] Umoren or Planned Parenthood[105].” In Tuscaloosa, the Alabama Department of Public Health found that the West Alabama Women’s Center failed to meet its own sterility standards for hand washing, glove usage, cleaning of supplies, and safe use of sharps containers. The deficiency report also noted that needles lay on the floor[106].
Alabama state health inspectors found that Alabama Women’s Center for Reproductive Alternatives in Huntsville did not clean exam tables between abortions, dispensed expired medication, and failed to comply with state informed consent laws[107].
