That group that made the Planned Parenthood videos has another one\u00a0 showing the goings on at an annual meeting of abortion providers.\u00a0 It must be very incriminating, since the abortionist activists went to a federal court to prevent its release.\u00a0 The judge who issued the restraining order is himself a big fund-raising bundler for President Obama, and his wife is a pro-abortion activist.\u00a0\u00a0 Mollie Hemingway tells the tale after the jump. . . .<\/p>\n

From Mollie Hemingway, Wife Of Judge Who Blocked Pro-Life Videos Is A Pro-Abortion Activist<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The federal judge who late Friday granted a temporary restraining order against the release of recordings made at an annual meeting of abortion providers wasn\u2019t just appointed by President Barack Obama, the most extreme proponent of abortion ever to hold the White House. He was also one of President Obama\u2019s top fundraisers, a bundler who raised at least $200,000 for Obama and donated $30,800 to committees supporting him, according to Public Citizen.<\/p>\n

Judge William H. Orrick, III, granted the injunction just hours after the order was requested by the National Abortion Federation.<\/p>\n

Orrick\u2019s wife, Caroline \u201cLinie\u201d Farrow Orrick, is a clown and artist with an interest in outdoor athletic endeavors. She partners with her husband in their political decisions and she is his co-bundler according to Public Citizen. She\u2019s also a public supporter of extreme abortion policies.<\/p>\n

Her YouTube user page shows that the first video she ever \u201cliked\u201d was from an extreme pro-abortion group called the Center for Reproductive Justice. The slick, celebrity-laden video called for people to sign a \u201cbill of rights\u201d that asserts a right to abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy, a position shared by very few Americans. It further calls for taxpayer funding of contraception, abortifacients and abortion. And, finally, it says that all health care plans should be required under penalty of law to cover abortion, abortifacients, and other anti-reproductive services \u2014 even if they have religious objections such as those held by the Little Sisters of the Poor.<\/p>\n

Judges recuse themselves for much less.\u00a0 But I wonder what\u2019s on those tapes.<\/p>\n
