With little fanfare and as expected, today President Obama vetoed H.R.3762, the âRestoring Americansâ Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act of 2015â³ sent to him by Congress earlier this week. The legislation would have repealed key provisions of Obamacare and restricted the availability of federal funding for Planned Parenthood. Among other things, the bill would have ended federal funding for Planned Parenthood for the next fiscal year, ended the IRS-collected penalty on taxpayers who do not carry government mandated health insurance, eased restrictions on health savings accounts and modified or removed many federal health insurance mandates on small businesses and state agencies.
In a press statement from the White House concerning the veto, the president said: âRather than refighting old political battles by once again voting to repeal basic protections that provide security for the middle class, members of Congress should be working together to grow the economy, strengthen middle-class families, and create new jobs. Because of the harm this bill would cause to the health and financial security of millions of Americans, it has earned my veto.â Response to the presidential veto was swift. Rep. Diane Black, a nurse for more than 40 years and a member of the House Budget Committee, said in a press release: âPresident Obamaâs gall is stunning. He spent this week discussing the need to âprotect innocent peopleâ and âsave more livesâ yet he callously vetoed a bill to protect the most innocent and vulnerable among us from the heinous abuses of Planned Parenthood. Whatâs more, he denied Americans a chance at relief from his disastrous health-care law that â nearly six years later â still remains underwater in public opinion polls...â

"As long as we've got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we've got to fight to protect a woman's right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you've also got a president who's going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way," said Obama. "Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you."
Obama's god cannot be the God of the Bible who had this to say of the Abortion industry in Israel...
Jeremiah 19:5 They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind:
The Bible is clear when it states that the line God draws is when a nation begins killing their own children. When this happens, judgment is inevitable. Not if, but when! When a nation begins killing its own children, there is no going back. However, making abortion mandatory by subsidizing it with taxpayer dollars is going beyond legalized abortion. Especially when all of our leaders know exactly what happens in these abortion mills thanks to clever investigative reporting! I am no prophet, but I believe that in our lifetime we are going to see spectacular judgments on the United States of America. What makes me say this? The next verses showing God's judgment for nations that murder their children...
Jeremiah 19:7 ...and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies , and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcases will I give to be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth. 8 And I will make this city desolate, and an hissing; every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues thereof. 9 And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them.
The only hope for those of us who truly weep at these abominations is to hide yourself in Christ Jesus. The day of evil is here. The righteous hide themselves in God who even in judgment remembers mercy. The wicked continue on and are punished (Prov 22:3)
Surprise, Surprise. It should have been defunded to begin with.
Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.
Watch for the Lamestream Media to spin it, shilling for the Democrats and to ignore the facts (as usual).
Congress controls spending, anytime they want they can defund planned parenthood, muslim refugees, or any other Obama BS.
They just refuse to, because they are cowards.
Murder is murder. The idea that a child at inception is not a child in fact is an absurdity. It’s in the chromosomes and is an undeniable fact.
The Democrats have given us the Penalty for being an American. Let’s let them know how we feel about TREADING ON US.
Any normal person should be too insulted to vote for them again! And Paul Benedict Arnold Ryan? What does he deserve, according to the Constitution?
Which makes you wonder if they would defund even if they had a Republican President, or would they simply allow the Democrats in the Senate block it and throw up their hands whining that they did all they could. I don’t see them having the guts to answer to the media and liberals.
It was a phoney attempt in the first place by the GOP-e.If they wanted it dead they would have killed it at the start.Not after the money was cleared.
I’m done with the GOP-s’s games.
The GOPe and Demoncrats have everything in common, they hate conservatives!
thank you for post. I pray that because we wanted Planned Parenthood defund, judgement falls on Obama only (since he all by himself was the one who wanted to veto a bill that passed house/senate) and not our country
Ryan figured this stunt would give the GOPe a pass. He still doesn't get it. Never will.
What would one expect of an enemy islamist but to use this major weapon against The Great Satan.
The trouble is that most Republicans are going right along with Obama. They knew this Bill was sure to be vetoed. If the GOP was serious, they would have defunded Planned Parenthood in congress...who controls the funds
It is the absurd gamesmanship of both parties, which is turning more and more Americans against Washington.
Obama and the Democrats like the LAWLESSNESS SELLING OF BABY PARTS.
bills defunding obamacare and pp should have been sent up the first day of the new session, but at least the gopes finally did it (probably out of fear of trump and conservatives in 2016). thanks for the post. now we get to watch closely to see who votes against the overide. there might be some weak dems to pick off.

Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD’S house; and said to all the people,
Jer 19:15
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words.
