Rick Perry on Planned Parenthood Vid: It’s Not About Politics; It’s About What’s Right

HALPERIN: “Governor, I'd like to ask you a couple of questions about Planned Parenthood. There's a controversy swirling around that you've weighed in on. First, I'd like you to say, does Planned Parenthood do anything, provide any services that you think are valuable, and if so what are they, and second, why are you so troubled by this video?"
RICK PERRY: “Well, Planned Parenthood does give some services which I would suggest are good for women's health, but –“
HALPERIN: “Which ones, Governor? Can you be specific on that?”
PERRY: “Oh, I think some of the cancer screenings; some of those types of screening are obviously good for women's health. But when you look at the overall picture of what they do, they are, they're in a business that people of Texas have a concern about. And Mark, let me ask you, You looked at that video and you're good with it?”
HALPERIN: “I think the video raises a lot of questions and you and others have raised them.”
PERRY: “It does indeed. And I think you just answered the question for us. Thank you.”
