I am reminded of Carly Foirina

So everyone knows what I mean when I say "Brandolini's Law"
.
.
Carley Fiorina spoke eloquently of an image in the Planned Parenthood doctored tapes.  Let me restate, she lied eloquently and movingly.  She moved me.
.
She dared anyone to watch the tapes, and see Planned Parenthood have a live aborted fetus on the table, kicking its legs while people said to keep it alive to harvest the brain.
.
That is disgusted, unconscionable and not at all true.  It was stock footage from a mis-carriage, not an abortion.  It was horrible sadness from a hospital, not Planned Parenthood.  The miscarried baby was not moving or kicking its legs and the parents were heart broken.
.
It was a disgusting lie.  And, although Brandolini's Law would say to ignore it, ignoring that particular lie is not possible.  Carly Fiorina is a disgusting person who had to lie, twist and mislead in order to make Planned Parenthood - a group that provides women's health care for millions and millions of poor women into a monster.

.
It is fully possible to disagree about abortion - or even agree about abortion - without denigrating work of people who are trying to save lives of women.
.
You, Carly Fiorina, are a horrible person and a Liar not above using pain and heartbreak to try to advance your on pathetic cause.
