But Christian alliance says constitution forbids it.
A Christian organization in Colorado is launching a campaign to "rally the troops" because Gov. Bill Ritter repeatedly has promised to restore state funding to Planned Parenthood, a move that could violate the state constitution's ban on "direct" or "indirect" taxpayer funding for abortions.
Ritter made the promise on his 2006 campaign website, and in various speeches since, to have Colorado taxpayers pay for expenses for Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider, despite two votes by the people in 1984 and 1988 banning that support.
"We will restore the Planned Parenthood money that Gov. [Bill] Owens cut. Every woman in Colorado will have access to emergency contraception. And we will not turn women or their doctors into criminals,"...
Owens, a Republican, had eliminated funding for Planned Parenthood from the state budget because of the constitutional provision that bans taxpayer funding in Colorado for abortions, either through a "direct" route, or an "indirect" route, and a legal opinion that not even dividing Planned Parenthood into two separate corporations, one to provide abortions and another to pay other expenses...
"The reality is that Bill Ritter has never backed down from his promise to put money into Planned Parenthood," ...

The net result is their killing a vast number of future Democrats. I think this is a good thing for conservatives.”

Seems like these self indulgent liberal progressive liars feel more comfortable fighting for a convicted killers execution stay or his or hers humane execution but they have no problem killing the innocent unborn! THIS IS WHO WANTS TO HOLD THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE WORLD!
That's never been proven. :-)
I say let him spearhead the appropriations and then impeach him the day he signs the bill...
Which bishop? I find it hard to believe that Chaput would have voted for Ritter.
