Planned Parenthood has violated federal law! It shouldn't get a dime of taxpayer money. To anyone who has sworn an oath to uphold the law and the Constitution, how can that possibly be otherwise?

But these gutless collaborators, who are only concerned with maintaining their personal fiefdoms, demonize the one guy trying to uphold the law.

Thankfully, Sen. Cruz will not stand down-- he's the last chance we got.

Ted Cruz must be the most powerful man in DC considering the attention he gets. He even has Democrats Aligning with Republicans against him.

LOL

+1 on that.

Cruz’s biggest enemies in DC regarding the shutdown won’t be the democraps.

It’ll be the Repugs.

I thought we gave the GOP a senate majority! What is that for? Why can the Democrats still shut down the government if we don’t meet all their demands?

To my mind, if you cannot stand for those unborn souls whose lives are brutally taken for convenience and IGNORED by the government of this United States, what can you stand for? I realize our prestigious court of fools have long ago decided to allow a woman to have her baby killed because it is convenient for her, but to add insult to injury and allow the butchers that do this to sell the baby parts like meat from butcher shop is nothing short of evil.

Frankly, you can shut this whole damned government down if this funding to PP isn’t stopped. Stop it all. We stand on this or we continue our drop to the bottom of the bottomless pit that ends in hell.

Again we see that anybody who dare stands on Conservative principles will see a thousand long knives come out of the woodwork and howl how terribly wrong they are.

The question was asked on FR before if not the Mengele butchery of Planned Parenthood, if not the dictates of the homosexuals, just what hill do you choose to die on?

Seriously, a thousand dark voices eagerly persuading you to not to stand for what is right. I recall the story of Jesus in the wilderness being harkened not to deprive Himself of all the riches and glory this world had to offer if He would only surrender.

Even if Planned Parenthood never performed even one abortion, what do they do that merits federal funding? Seriously?

But they do much more than just abort babies. They are decapitating babies and selling the heads. And our supposed leaders are arguing about, not lynching them, not prosecuting and imprisoning them, but how much are we going to pay them. How many hundreds of millions are we going to give these butchers.

And the one senator who won’t go along with it they accuse of grandstanding. This is an important lesson. The day you find the line you won’t cross, you will stand largely alone. Your motives will be attacked. You’ll be attacked, not just by your enemies but by your supposed friends.

That's what I like about Ted Cruz, he doesn't worry about what hill he's on. He knows you have to fight on every hill or you're just giving them to the enemy.

Maybe I didn’t read closely enough. Are they saying they won’t defund PP because...Cruz? Better sending our money to murderous profiteers of human life.
