House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi sees the recent Republican attempt to defund Planned Parenthood as an “insult to the intelligence and judgment of women.”

Asked if she had watched any of the undercover sting videos of Planned Parenthood officials discussing harvesting fetal body parts for use in medical research — the tapes that reinvigorated the recent push to withhold federal funds from the country’s largest abortion provider — she said she’d only seen what had been shown on the news. “They ’re doctored,’’ she said. No congressional committee has found Planned Parenthood guilty of any wrongdoing, and yet “the Republicans have now put forward a select committee. … I call it ‘the Select Committee to Hurt Women’s Health.’ It’s just a terrible thing.”

“What’s interesting to me,’’ she continued, “is that for decades in Congress I have been trying to tell people that the Republicans do not support contraception and family planning.”

Opposition to Planned Parenthood is “not about terminating a pregnancy as much as it is — well, it is about that — but it’s also largely about contraception. Nobody ever believed me; now they see firsthand that they want to stop Planned Parenthood from providing these services.”

Told that the report Planned Parenthood itself had commissioned had not actually found that the tapes had been doctored — on the contrary, it said it found “no substantive video manipulation” and “no evidence of audio manipulation” — she said, “I did not sit down and watch their doctored versions of what may have happened, and I still say they’re doctored.”
