The Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina met with protests as she attended a University of Iowa football game tailgate rally on Saturday.
Those who chanted and held up placards were supporters of Planned Parenthood, the organization at the center of a controversy over videos, which purport to show offering fetal body parts for sale.
The protest, in Iowa City, was the culmination of a week-long back and forth between the womens health organization and the only woman seeking the Republican nomination for president, over remarks made by Fiorina about the content of the videos.

Here's a statement from a campaign manager...it's beyond outrageous:
In an email to the Guardian, deputy campaign manager Sarah Isgur Flores said the Fiorina camp welcomed the demonstration.
Were happy they are bringing more attention to the videos, the statement said, which show planned parenthood butchering babies and selling their organs.[/

Systematic murdering of children in the womb - sounds like an early death metal band I saw in the 90s.

She did lie about PP and should be held accountable for it!
