The Senate voted today on a bill to defund Planned Parenthood, which has been in the headlines lately following the release of four undercover videos that reveal, among other horrors, the organizations sale of fetal parts. The bill, which would have stripped half a billion dollars in taxpayer money from Planned Parenthood, fell short of the needed 60 votes and was defeated.
Leni
But the FB Liberal Republicans say if you don’t vote RINO Hillary will thank you!
1000 babies killed EVERY SINGLE DAY AND THE GOP DID NOT USE THE NUCLEAR OPTION.
and they say we shouldn’t vote for a THIRD PARTY?
The Senate is totally corrupt.
Baby killing Fools on the Hill. The scum of humanity.
Spineless Mitch McConnell and the Republicans who support him.
Why, Mitch? WHY??? He will burn in he[[ with the rest of them.
It’s horrific to know that even with 60 “R’s” in the senate, the defunding vote still would not have passed with Graham “not voting.”
These people had better enjoy what time they have left on this earth because I think St. Peter is going to give them a look that says, “You’ve got to be joking”.
lol duh, yourself. You asked.

NOTE: Senator Lindsey Graham Not Voting
Lindsay was live on the set on that candidates forum. Senators Cruz and Paul appeared via satellite as they were doing their duty trying to defund this abomination.
They are probably alright with releasing illegal alien MURDERERS, RAPISTS, and DRUG DEALERS back into our society.
Can we say LAWLESSNESS and CORRUPTION?
McConnel only allowed this vote because he knew it would fail.
Of course he could have posted the list, but, he’s gotta pimp that blog yo!
Gosh, I’ll bet they all have something in common, but I just can’t see it.
No. Democrats filibustered a bill to defund Planned Parenthood. Republicans fell short of the 60 votes needed for cloture.
As usual, the word "filibuster" tends to disappear when it is Democrats doing the filibustering. You will also only rarely see the words "Democratic obstructionism."
The GOPe are an increasing ridiculous embarrassment that should be ashamed to show themselves in public.
Does any sentient adult actually believe they mean one single word the say? Miserable b@stards.
I agree, Leni. We need to retire Mark Kirk in the primary. In any event, he will not be re-elected even if he isn’t primaried: Tammy Duckworth (whom I can’t stand) is going to clean his clock. Mark Kirk was just a Democrat, anyway; the (R) after his name was just a fly on his forehead.
