Well, states fight back with rejecting and nullifying unconstitutional federal acts and regulations like this one. Tell Obama to pound sand.

"The Obama administration threatened states taking steps to defund Planned Parenthood, claiming they may be in violation of federal law"

What about Sanctuary Cities, O'Brilliant One?

So the states will use alternative providers for Medicaid services

Maybe providers that offer a full range of services like adoption counseling

And then?

The constitution is currently not being followed. Therefore we don’t have a constitution.

Our federal government is a creation of the states. When this creation gets out of control, then the states have the right to abolish it or change it.

Besides the three branches of federal government that we are aware of, there exists a fourth branch which most people forget, it is the states. And actually, as mentioned above, this fourth branch has more power and authority than any of othe other three combined.

It is time for the fourth branch to assume it’s proper authority, and alter or abolish the other three.

Oh, that’s OK. Obola can choose whatever laws he wants us to obey, and what laws he wants his own administration to observe.

Obama ignores the law, therefore the states should ignore Obama.

The spineless wimps in all levels of government are too scared to do anything to Obama and his accomplices for fear of being called racist. And more than a few of them are actively complicit in his crimes. Boehner and McConnell, for example. I don't know if the administration has some leverage for blackmail or these traitors have received some kind of compensation. Whatever. All levels of government have been thoroughly corrupted. I can only pray the Almighty will render appropriate punishment against these traitors.

"“You can’t exclude Planned Parenthood [from funding] because you don’t like the services they provide,” said Elizabeth Nash, senior state issues associate for the Guttmacher Institute, in a Wall Street Journal report."

This is no longer about excluding Planned Parenthood because people don't like the services they provide. This is about refusing to fund criminal activity. Until it can be determined that Planned Parenthood is not itself in violation of federal and state laws, a state or any other entity should be allowed to withhold funds supporting them.
