So, for what feels like roughly the 86,322nd time since the GOP has had control of at least one house of Congress, they’ve decided that defunding Planned Parenthood simply wasn’t that important.

This time it was the Senate that decided spending your tax dollars on an abortion provider — who swears they use that money solely on “women’s health services,” is able to effectively sequester this part of the pond of money available to the group from being used to murder the unborn and that they are the only effective provider of these “women’s health services” in America — wasn’t all that bad, even though they repeatedly swear during each campaign cycle that they’ll defund our country’s largest baby-killing mill.

Two voted against and some were MIA.

Which is again, just another reason WHY I left the Republican party and will not vote for anyone in it.

Even if they are "Conservative".

It is simply become the Democrat Party, while the Democrat Party simply went Communist.

I had no idea you felt this way.

@TomSea This article says my tax dollars are again going to be used used to kill babies.  Help me understand your zealotry on this issue?

Why don't you ask your questions in the life news thread? I don't see you over there (okay, maybe you don't have the time and I respect that), however, it also shows that perhaps one is not versed in this issue.

If Tom Cotton didn't vote against, good! He is not in the article, by the way, an article was posted on Senator Paul's legislation in the life news forum where this does belong.

Rand Paul scorches GOP leaders for blocking amendment to defund Planned Parenthood
Nate Madden

....

“My amendment would end funding to Planned Parenthood. My amendment is already included in the House version,” Paul said in a video he later posted to his Twitter account. “And yet, my amendment is now being blocked by Republicans.”

Paul went on to suggest that the reason for the current situation is that Republican leadership cares more about passing a bloated spending bill than about standing up and fighting for the pro-life issues they like to “pay lip service to.”

As my colleague Chris Pandolfo reported earlier, establishment Republicans are worried that holding a vote on the amendment would derail the massive “minibus” appropriations bill currently before the Senate. That basically means that hundreds of millions of dollars going to an organization that kills over 300,000 unborn children every year is simply the price that many elected Republicans are willing to pay to avoid a government shutdown.

Better yet, get the real pulse of the pro-lifers by reading lifenews.com , lifesitenews.com and I know Wisconsin does have some of their own pro-life websites, I think most or all states do.

Sounds like Rubio was probably on the right side of this one as well.

Sometimes, I know a Senator will vote for something if "disaster relief" for their state is involved, that's about the only exception I know of. If a state has billions of damage due to a natural disaster like say, Hurricane Harvey, then, in that case, it's difficult for a Senator to vote against PP because if the bill doesn't pass, all of that disaster relief will not come to the state.

[TomSea]

The Senators should have voted for it, especially as the Rand Paul article says, the House,

The House of Representatives once again, led the way by apparently passing it's counterpart.  Is that what Rand Paul is saying? It sounds like it. That's why I say, the House does tend to get things done.  They defunded under Paul Ryan for all of the flak he gets.

[TomSea]

These bills don't pass mainly because of those 2 GOP Republican female senators, Collins and Murkowski, even if the ones who wrongly voted against defunding did, there might not have been enough votes. The Senate doesn't get things done, the House does. I have few problems with the House of Representatives.... so it seems.

I am disappointed.  Especially that Ted Cruz couldn't even vote.

Why don't you ask your questions in the life news thread?

The life news threads are filled with lies and people who don't really care about baby murder under the Trump regime.  JMHO.

I don't see you over there (okay, maybe you don't have the time and I respect that), however, it also shows that perhaps one is not versed in this issue.

How versed do I need to be to see my tax dollars paying for abortion.  Really Tom?  Am I missing the nuanced intricacies of President Trump's brilliant plan?

If Tom Cotton didn't vote against, good! He is not in the article, by the way, an article was posted on Senator Paul's legislation in the life news forum where this does belong.

WHO DID?!?  THE CONGRESS IS RUN MY THE GOP!!! WHO IS TO BLAME?

That makes it better Tom.  thanx.
