An overwhelming share of Americans—69 percent of voters including 56 percent of Republicans—support Planned Parenthood

___________________________________________

Was this poll done by the same people that had Hitlery up by 12 points a week before the election?

I wish the rats would give us a huge list of all their demands at once, instead of just coming out every day with a new one. I mean, we’re all just dying to hear what they want for the next 8 years! How can we help?!?

Planned Parenthood is funded (in part) directly by the US government (lesser amounts from the state governments.)

Now, technically, none of that money is supposed to go to propaganda (er, publicity and political donations and fund-raising) efforts, but - when ANY extra money comes in to a company (and Planned Parenthood IS a major profitable company!) the other funds from other sources can be used for that propaganda.

I understand that men can be scum and not live up to their responsibilities. But I have never understood how a woman can kill the life growing inside her.

I’m trying to recall ANY scenario in my (long) lifetime in which Republicans demanded anything of Democrats.

Dear Patty “mom-in-tennis-shoes” and Maria “Can't-vote-well” you both need to meditate on what Obama said. Elections have consequences.

Democrats refused for years and years to find a bipartisan way to deal with Republican party complaints about Planned Parenthood and their abortion vendetta against unborn babies.

Well the pendulum has swung. You should have figured out a compromise when you had political power. Planned Parenthood is the biggest bully on the political block. Look at how they ruined the Susan G Kormen breast cancer foundation when that group refused to pay its potection money to Planned Parenthood.

Karma has come back to Planned Parenthood for all the attacks it lead on specific politicians and non-profits.

I look forward to seeing Planned Parenthood broke and disbanded.

I always find that there are ways around this which would make the liberals go apoplectic. What I would suggest is since liberals are saying it isn’t about abortion, but about women’s health, Ryan and gang should say PP will continue to be funded as long as there isn’t an abortion element involved. Any PP can operate as an abortion clinic but they will not be funded with taxpayer money.

Let the rats decide whether they want abortion or women’s health issues addressed by PP.

It’s not surprising that this action is coming from post-17th Amendment ratification Senators. Low-information, institutionally indoctrinated senators probably don’t have a clue that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to tax and spend for abortion purposes.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

So Ryan was actually wrong to support the Omnibus spending bill which provided funding for abortions imo.

Hypothetically speaking, given the constitutional division of federal and state powers, the founders would have probably expected the Senate to kill any House appropriations bill that provided federal funds to help pay for abortions.

Note that, unlike the rights that the states have expressly amended the Constitution to expressly protect, such right evidenced by the Bill of Rights and other rights amendments, the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect the so-called right to have an abortion.

In other words, the state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices who decided Roe v. Wade against the states wrongly stole state powers and used those powers to establish from the bench the fictitious constitutional right to have an abortion.

Doing so opened the door for corrupt lawmakers to exploit likewise low-information women in the following way. Lawmakers used the 19th Amendment, in conunction with the ill-conceived 17th Amendment, to get themselves elected with the promise of providing federal abortion funding, such women evidently not understanding that the fed have no express constitutional authority to tax and spend for abortion purposes as evidenced by the Gibbons excerpt above.

Remember in November ’18 !

Since Trump entered the ’16 presidential too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the ’18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.

Noting that the primaries probably start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way. Patriots need to ask candidates why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I (to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.)

Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the following Supreme Court clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers, starting again with the Gibbons excerpt.

Note that such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices off of the bench.

I just reformatted your cartoon:

Between the img and the smc= I put height=500. The bigger number makes it larger and a smaller number makes it smaller.

What you say is an exact description of the “laundering operation” PP does with a wink from the Demoncats.

Planned Parenthood rarely, to my knowledge, even offers an alternative, such as adoption to pregnant women. Abortion is against my personal moral beliefs. I believe it is an abomination and barbaric with few if any exceptions. As the Government uses tax money to fund"education" about abortion, not "medical" care, it frees a dollar for abortion for each dollar of tax money. As many religions are against abortion, such actions are prohibited by the First Amendment. A basic principal of accounting is that dollars are fungible, viz. indistinguishable, one from another, so provided for education or abortion are equivalent.
Such funding, even for education is racist. 70% of all Black babies in NYC are aborted. Sic. genocide. There has to be a hell of a lot of abortions in DC for Planned Parenthood to be the major supplier of medical services. No colds, flue, appendicitis, gall bladders etc performed in DC
