Sen. Barbara Boxer lambastes GOP effort to defund Planned Parenthood as "vendetta" on women's health

California U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer is lambasting what she calls a Republican "vendetta" against Planned Parenthood, saying that efforts in the House Republicans' proposed budget to entirely defund the organization will impact millions.

In California alone, hundreds of thousands of women, the Democratic Senator said, use the organization's "life-saving" services -- including cancer screenings, mammograms, day-to-day health care, OB-GYN services as well as contraception and family planning.

Boxer made the statements this week at a San Francisco press conference, where we asked Planned Parenthood Shasta Pacific President and CEO Heather Estes about the controversial question of the organization's providing of abortion services -- raised repeatedly by Republican conservatives as a rationale in slashing its funding.

Americas most efficient baby-killing machine, Planned Parenthood, is the Democrat Party’s most efficient money laundering machine.

Is it just me, or does anyone else get hives when they hear or see the name “Barbra Boxer”?

Roughly 50% of pre-born babies would be women, what does that say about Boxer?

I thought Obozocare was supposed to provide all that stuff for free anyways...

Boxer forgot to tout Banned Parenthood’s life-destroying services while running her mouth about their supposed “life-saving” services.

“’vendetta’ on women’s health”

The moron can’t see Planned Predator’s “vendetta” on the baby’s health . . . the one that dies . . . the unborn innocent . . . it’s otherwise called M-U-R-D-E-R.

How can anyone holding such a position not see the absolute hell she’s on her way to? Sick!

I don’t want one damn dime spent on this bloody holocaust!

Nice rhetoric, if she’s trying to sell this to feminists who have no connection to reality, but the truth is that well over half of the abortion victims are female and would become women without Boxer using our tax dollars to kill them. Apparently, Boxer doesn’t care about women who can’t vote for her (and never will be able to thanks to the abortionists).

Boxer is spouting propaganda, planned abortionhood gets plenty of funds not counting gov’t money. Gov’t money is just gravey they can dole out to themselves in salary and bonuses and junkets around the world. Who is she sh-ting???

Defunding PP may have a small deleterious effect on “women’s health”, but it will have a huge positive effect on the health of unborn children.

No Babs. It’s a vendetta against slaughtering the defenseless innocent on the taxpayer’s dime.
