Kasich Channels McConnell on Planned Parenthood: GOP Doesn’t Need Unpopular Government Shutdown
Big Government ^ | 9/13/15 | Dr Susan Berry

Posted on 09/13/2015 5:42:02 PM PDT by markomalley

Republican presidential contender John Kasich is taking a page from Senate Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell’s playbook, warning GOP conservatives against demanding Planned Parenthood’s federal funding be eliminated from the must-pass temporary spending bill that would keep the government open.

Echoing McConnell’s words, the Ohio Governor said in New Hampshire Saturday and then argued on Fox News Sunday, that President Obama would veto any spending bill that transfers funds from Planned Parenthood to women’s healthcare facilities that do not perform abortions. Kasich warns that could make Republicans vulnerable if the government subsequently shuts down.

“I think there are other ways for Congress to try to deal with this,” Kasich said. “And they need to be more creative in regard to Planned Parenthood. But when you shut the government down, people don’t like it. And you shouldn’t shut it down unless you have a great chance of success.”

they need to be more creative in regard to Planned Parenthood

Translation: Give them even more government cash to distribute to the baby-killer Democrats.

So I guess the GOP DOES NEED the wildly popular PPs butchering American babies and selling their body parts to the highest bidder? This is such a dumb thing to say.

But when you shut the government down, people don’t like it.

After the last government shutdown, the GOP gained 9 Senate seats and the most House members since 1928.

What would happen if they did something the People LIKED?

So is Kasich vying for the distinction of being the next candidate to bow out of the presidential race?

Maybe he wanted to be first, but Rick Perry beat him to it.

Trump said shut it down over PP. Guess he is more conservative than Kasich. Just because 75% of America is against baby harvesting is no reason to fight.

Pray America is waking

Yeah, just let us stupid taxpayers continue to pay for the deliberate, cold, calculated, 1st degree murder of unborn children. That’s why we pay taxes, right?

If I was one of those ‘no matter what’ types I would probably be searching for some new material right about now because if the last week alone is an indication, their same old excuses are gonna be a harder sell this trip.

bummer.

I’d bet money that twit is on the ticket as VP.

I’ll be the first to say, thanks to Donald, this election is like no other. But the GOPe have been winning for decades now. Its always theirs to lose. Here’s hoping they lose.

It is unbelievably pathetic that these morons are incapable of making the case to the American people that it is Obama who would be shutting down the government.

This is where a Trump (who is not intimidated by the media) would shine.
