Sebelius Issues "Laughable" Defense of Secret Party at Governor's
Mansion Honoring Abortionist Tiller
Party held exclusively in Tiller's honor. Tiller and his staff
were the only guests invited to the gala event
By Tim Waggoner
WICHITA, KS, May 29, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In early April, 2007,
late-term abortionist George R. Tiller and his entire abortion clinic
staff was honored by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius at a lavish secret party
held at Cedar Crest, the Governor's mansion. In response to photographs
published by Operation Rescue this week, Gov. Sebelius' office has
released what Operation Rescue is calling a "laughable" defense, saying
that the Tiller party depicted in the photographs was a prize in a
charity auction in which Sebelius had no control over who would attend.
OR obtained the set of 27 photographs from a confidential source that
told OR the party was held exclusively in Tiller's honor. Tiller and his
staff were the only guests invited to the gala event that featured,
according to the source, a menu of steak and lobster.
"According to our source, who attended the event at Cedar Crest, the
party was 'by special invitation only.' It was obvious to this person
that Tiller was on a very friendly basis with Sebelius and took the time
to personally introduce each member of his abortion clinic staff to the
governor," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. "Our source was
very specific that the event's purpose was to 'honor' Tiller and his
staff. The pictures, especially the ones that include the political
t-shirts produced by Tiller, back up our source's claims."
"It is laughable for Sebelius to now say she has no control over who she
parties with. The Women's Political Caucus is a radical leftist feminist
organization that is providing the smoke and mirrors to cover for the
Tiller party," said Newman. "We don't buy it."
Receipts obtained by Operation Rescue from the Governor's office show
that taxpayers paid for the April 9, 2007, event.
OR alleges that "Tiller is a major contributor to pro-abortion
candidates in Kansas, giving hundreds of thousands of dollars through a
complicated series of political action committees and non-profit
organizations".
"Sebelius' office arrogantly believes that they can keep her strong ties
to Tiller a secret, but their efforts to keep the truth from the public
have only exposed their corruption," said Newman. "Sebelius would not be
governor today if not for Tiller's financial support. She owes him her
career. Every agency in Kansas that could hold Tiller accountable for
illegal late-term abortions, from the Board of Healing Arts to the
Kansas Supreme Court to the Attorney General, are all laced with
Sebelius appointees. It is little wonder that they all have done nothing
but stall and obstruct efforts to prosecute him."
OR suggests this event is an indication of a broader relationship that
the Governor shares with the abortion industry.
Just over a month after the Tiller soiree, Gov. Sebelius celebrated her
birthday on May 15, 2007, at a party thrown by Planned Parenthood of
Kansas and Mid-Missouri, while they were still under investigation by
the Attorney General's office and the Johnson County District Attorney.
The party featured Planned Parenthood CEP Peter Brownlie leading a conga
line in celebration. Planned Parenthood was later cleared by Sebelius'
handpicked Attorney General Paul Morrison but charged by District
Attorney Phill Kline with 107 criminal charges related to illegal
abortions and manufacturing records.

Planned Parenthood Tries to Dodge Blame after 13 Year-Old Rendered
Infertile by Botched Abortion
Being Sued for $50 Million in Damages
By Tim Waggoner
Arlington, VA, May 29, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - On February 12, 2008, a
women filed a lawsuit against Planned Parenthood Metropolitan located in
Washington, D.C., for damages suffered during an abortion procedure at a
Planned Parenthood centre.
Emma Jean Butler, mother of Shantese Butler, is suing Planned Parenthood
for $50 million dollars in damages. Butler took her daughter to the D.C.
Planned Parenthood on September 7, 2006 to abort a child conceived in
rape. During the abortion, Shantese sustained severe abdominal bleeding,
severe vaginal injury, severe injury to the cervix, significant uterine
perforation, and a small bowel tear. In addition, parts of the child
were found inside Shantese's abdomen on September 8, 2006. Because of
these injuries, Shantese will be infertile for the rest of her life.
Planned Parenthood Metropolitan has denied the injuries suffered and the
infertility of Shantese Butler. In addition, they state in their answer
that Butler's claims are barred by the doctrines of informed consent and
assumption of risk.
Kristan Hawkins, Students for Life of America's Executive Director,
remarked, "This is a horrible situation. Our thoughts go out to Shantese
and her family as she recovers from her injuries both from the rape and
abortion. Further, it is outrageous that Planned Parenthood thinks they
are excused from being held liable because Shantese was informed of
possible risks associated with abortion. In no other medical profession
would this be acceptable. How ironic is it that the pro-abortion
movement claims they want abortions to be 'safe, legal, and rare,' when
in this poster case for abortion, Shantese was permanently injured,
resulting in infertility for the rest of her life, making abortion
harmful and almost deadly to the young girl."
