“Women’s Health Services” is leftist code. Everyone knows what they’re talking about. Everyone.

I’m okay with replacing PP with vouchers giving any woman a free pap smear test.
So, can we get on with the budget.

What is wrong with defunding something that is illegal to start with? This is similar to Obozo deciding which immigration laws he wants to enforce. What are the RATS screaming about - it is only to BASH THE GOP.
Introduced by Henry Hyde (R-Illinois) in 1976, the amendment that bears his name restricts federal funding for abortion. Passed by the House as part of the Department of Labor and Health, Education, and Welfare Appropriation Act in 1976, the Hyde Amendment prohibits appropriated funds to be expended on abortion except when the mother's life is endangered by her pregnancy. Each year since then, the Hyde Amendment has been attached to the annual federal spending bill; and over the years other exceptions for rape, incest, and "severe and physical health damage" to the mother have been added, removed, added, and debated as the numbers of pro-life and pro-choice members of Congress have fluctuated.

So killing unborn babies is more important to the democrats then running the federal governmnet, paying the troops fighting the wars etc?
Sounds about right!

We need Planned Parenthood funding, how could human trafficking continue unless government funds the abortions necessary to keep a prostitute working?

Republicans want to shut down our nations government because they want to make it harder for women to get the health services they need, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on the floor Friday. This is indefensible and everyone should be outraged men and women should be outraged. The Dems are making a huge miscalculation on this one. It will be the Dems prefering to stop the government rather than stop abortions that will be the message that resonates with the majority of Americans.
The GOP need to stand their ground on this. They have a winning strategy and a winning issue.

“CANCER SCREENING” by PP is the totally fake meme that is being currently broadcast non-stop.

Outstanding research.
The media is perputuating this total lie (PP = cancer screening) 24/7 at this point.

"CANCER SCREENING by PP is the totally fake meme that is being currently broadcast non-stop. I agree. A totally fraudulent claim by "Planned Parenthood."
What will they claim next?
- Stop Tooth Decay!: Don't defund Planned Parenthood.
- Toenail Fungus Screening!: Fund Planned Parenthood!

As I wrote on a previous thread but this thread is more appropriate. Democrats look like human beings but why would human beings want to slaughter their unborn or newborn?? Cue theme from “The Twilight Zone”

I don’t know a single woman who goes to Planned Parenthood for mammograms, pap smears etc. I honestly thought it was for teenagers who may or may not be pregnant or need Birth Control info if their Mothers were too timid to talk about it with them in a calm sensible way! Did all the OB-Gyn’s up and quit their jobs? I raised 3 daughters and they went for check ups at the OB-Gyn as well. These Dem.Congressmen & Women are speaking as if every woman in this country goes to Planned Parenthood for crying out loud!!!
