The GOP-E could win the presidency while maintaining control of Congress, but yet McConnell would then claim that he could do nothing until the SCOTUS justices and those of all the other federal courts were re-appointed.

Or in other words, IT'S NEVER ENOUGH!!!

Why does it have to wait? The only answer I can come up with is that the GOP leadership does not have the balls to take on the President.

And then, McTurtle will say we have to wait until there is a Filibuster Proof Majority of 67 Republican Senators.

McTurtle NEVER fights.

Why? So mc turtle can roll over on his back and say that he and his GOPe ilk can’t do anything about it, AGAIN?

So, tell me again; what voting in a GOPe majority has done for us?

NOT A SINGLE DAMN THING! That’s what.

As a matter of fact, it seems that giving the GOPe the majority has empowered them to join in with the democrats in stabbing Americans in the back for fun and profit.

GOPe needs to be defeated.

This is a prime example of why.

They refuse to fight on any front, ever.

I'm curious as to why reduced funding is not an option. Say, 20% reduction in the first year.

I haven't read where obamas bitch has nullified that option

McConnell: Defunding Planned Parenthood must wait for new president

Might as well go play golf and collect $400k/year for 2 years. Not to mention all the insider trading and under the table income that makes the $400k look like a social security check.

If the House of Representatives don’t fund it, there is nothing Obama can do; at least legally.

He didn’t move to defund it when the gop-e had all three....what makes us think he will do so IF the gop-e wins in 2016 and holds the Congress.

He makes it sound like a bill to defund them won’t pass, when really its the opposite. You just don’t include them in the budget.

They are decapitating babies and selling the heads and GOP can’t be roused to say boo about it. Instead of debating whether or not to lynch these people the most they can do is discuss how much they are going to pay them for all the good things they supposedly do.

White flag before the battle is begun...Where’s the ‘hold their feet to the fire’ lackeys these days??

Even IF we gave ‘em all 3, there they’d be spouting “We have MORE important things to worry about than XYZ...” or something about ‘needing bi-partisanship’ or some such nonsense.

Everyone that agreed to keep this turtle-head piece of shite in ‘leadership’ should be railed out of office. Oh, the longing for the ‘olden days’...

McConnell: Defunding Planned Parenthood must wait for new president

What we need is a Constitutional Amendment that requires all expenditures by the government be approved by the House of Representatives where, by the way, Republicans have a significant majority.

Oh, wait...

[Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) says that defunding Planned Parenthood will have to wait for a new commander in chief in 2017.]

How many more babies will be dismembered and sold piece by piece by 2017?

U.S. Senators, their blood is on your hands.

While its useful to lay blame at McConnell’s feet for the GOP’s unwillingness to confront, we should remember that GOP senators chose him as their leader even knowing exactly who and what he is.

They can hide behind him but he is them.

Excuse me mcconnell - this is the Peoples money your conceding to your king.

I just realized how fair and balanced I am. I loath the rinos as much as I loath the democrats. Note to spell check: Thanks, but mcconnel does not warrant capitalization.

“McConnell: Defunding Planned Parenthood must wait for new president”

Or a new Senate Majority Leader, sooner rather than later.

Blah, blah, excuse, excuse, blah, blah. The GOPe must have a book of excuses for doing nothing.

Okay, Bitch, we know you can’t do anything other than what Obama wants you to do.
