Funny, when Jeb Bush stepped on this Land Mine Hillary attacked him and he apologized which made it even worse.

Remember, it isn’t PP Funding, it’s Women’s Health Funding.

Chess versus Checkers. Take it apart piece by piece, not as a whole just like PP does to Unborn Babies.

Enjoying the Popcorn on the new outrage of the day.

I mean, Trump hasn't come close to the flip flops from campaign promises to actual voting record those guys have managed.

Ummmm....not to point out the obvious here, but it's rather impossible for Trump to have any "flip flops from campaign promises to actual voting record."

I like Cruz’s idea better. Investigate them and bring any offenders up on criminal charges.

It’s ALL, or NOTHING. Eliminate PP in its entirety. Give an inch to that Liberal organization (actually any liberal organization), and they will take that inch, and with a flip of the middle finger restore their beloved Murder Incorporated to twice what it was all the while tying up the courts, and the Congress with their death fetish.

Never leave a Lib with a spark to fan to a flame.

To Donald:

You want my support! This is a basic conservative premise. NO TAX MONEY TO PP.

I think I see the problem here....

Who is going to regulate the use of this money? The government?

I blame his Trumpster supporters who are willing to rally around an anti-intellectual populist who is not even a conservative all because they are "raging at the system".

I don't get all of this rage at the average American. I don't blame the average American for Obama, I blame the progressive cabal in government and media that has blinded my countrymen. This is the same cabal which ordinary Americans are now bucking in their support of Trump. If anyone is to blame for the present state of things, it's the progressives in both parties and the media that supports them. Save your rage for them and enjoy the fact that average Americans are turning on them.

It’s not the news sources, it’s conservatives that want a conservative leader that are on the alert. Boehner and McConnell are not running for President. If they were, I’d vote 4th party if I needed to.

Trump has no voting record. That’s part of the point of saying he is untrustworthy. Trump’s entire campaign platform is a flip flop from 5 years ago. I hope this article is a trend and he starts to do it on a week by week basis.

This should be a congressional move with the intent to lock the Democrats into a battle over PP.

Rats, you have a choice. If you want PP to exist, all funding for women’s services under Obamacare goes away. We are just trying to get rid of duplication and additional costs.

Hammer that message home and PP goes bye bye.

Media sensitivity to inconsistencies in political positions is my point.

I agree in principle. The problem is that the laws that PP has likely violated are written so vaguely that a criminal prosecution is virtually impossible. For example, the law prohibits the sale of fetal tissue, but allows "reasonable payments associated with the removal, transportation, implantation, processing, preservation, quality control, and storage." Any halfway-decent defense lawyer will take that "reasonable payments" provision and turn it into an acquittal.

So yeah, investigate and prosecute where you can, but that's not enough. You also need to defund PP and tighten the law so that any payments for aborted fetal parts are prohibited.

The point is- it exposes the lie in their argument. I like it. Anyone who calls out and exposes liberal lies is a godsend. And rare.

a real pro-lifer at heart would have an absolute revulsion for PP in every way.

Lol. Money is fungible. But I’m guessing Trump knows that. Remember, this is someone who didn’t even think pro-lifers should be allowed to exist.
