I got this in an e-mail:
Every year Congress takes $500 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars and hands them over to Planned Parenthood’s abortion mills where they have been caught on camera engaged in the trafficking of aborted baby body parts for profit. This atrocity must come to an end.
We are continuing to put pressure Congress to vote to Defund Planned Parenthood.
The Republicans control the House and the Senate – for now. Stopping abortion funding is supposed to be a big Republican goal. There is nothing preventing the Republicans from dropping the money from the Federal budget. I explained why nothing ever gets done in politics in a post: How The Game Is Played. Fixing things would kill more than a few money machines. Or as Hillary explained in another context, “There is too much money in it.”

When are you going to believe me? The Republican Party is a center/left party with (at present) a dominant liberal wing. It has been a center left party since its founding, and until the 1970’s and the great realignment it was, on average, to the left of the Democrat Party. There is not a single New Deal or Great Society program that it opposes.
Conservatives think that because the Democrat Party is a socialist party with a dominant communist wing its opposition must be a conservative party. They have never heard of the Menshiviks or the Fascists or the Nazis–all left wing but anti-Communist parties.
Ted Cruz is despised by Congressional Republicans and Lindsey Graham joked about his murder because he pointed all this out on the Senate floor.
Drake,
Well my respect for Ted has gone up a notch.
I’m still wondering why the “Constitutionalist” hasn’t noticed the missing Drug Prohibition Amendment. Republicans voting against the Harrison Narcotics Act in 1914 noticed it.
Here is a bit on Ted and eliminating planned parenthood funding.

Abortion is murder, and it is impossible to understand why pro Planned Parenthood folks do not understand that!!!!
Alexandra,
I have one for you:
If it is murder it is Murder One – Premeditated. There is no statute of limitations on murder. Government’s can’t make murder legal. Nuremberg. That means we have 10 to 50 million women who need killing.
Got a plan?
Unless they don’t really mean it. Hypocrites.
The idea that we need laws to solve every social problem is socialist.
