The idiots running the GOP in congress don't seem to think that we already know what will happen to a stand-alone bill to defund PP. It will either be blocked by a filibuster in the senate, or vetoed by Obama.

The only leverage we, the people, have is in the budget authorization process. They have already conceded defeat on this leverage.

Bingo! The GOPe believe they can fool us yet again with another doomed show vote. They chickened out of attaching an amendment to a recent "must pass" transportation funding bill, opting instead for a rigged Senate show vote in which McConnell himself voted against defunding the death camps. Ted Cruz is right - the Republican leadership is playing for the other team.
