CMI's Warren Buffett Report Discussed on 'The Five'
CMI's special
report which revealed that Warren Buffett had donated more than $1.2 billion to pro-abortion groups, including Planned Parenthood, was discussed on Fox News' "The Five."
A
partial transcript of the interview follows:
Bob
Beckel: "Billionaire Warren Buffett has given a lot of money to charity
over his lifetime, but he's also given a massive sum to abortion groups, and
just how much is causing controversy. According to a new analysis by the media
research center, Buffett gave more than $1.2 billion from 2001 to 2012. That
amount could supposedly fund 2.7 million first trimester abortions. How much
does this hurt the Oracle of Omaha's image? Eric."
Eric
Bolling: "Yeah, I had no idea. Everyone knows that Warren Buffett has been
very liberal. He's been a big Obama supporter, he had the "Buffett
Tax," which is in essense another redistribution of wealth and no one
could understand why the worlds most successful investor would be for that.
But, where's the media pointing this out, that a billion dollars – he spent on
pro-abortion causes, including something like $300 million dollars to Planned
Parenthood?
"Now,
what's it – you know, he's not running for elected office, so it's not really
going to make that much of an effect on anything. But still, it would have been
good to hear about that, I would have liked to know about that. By the way, a
billion and a quarter – do you know how many teachers that could hire?"
