So, from what I have read so far, the only hit Planned Parenthood took was to not fund abortions in Washington DC. Big deal. Very disappointing. Unless I am not understanding all of it. Someone please educate me if I am wrong. I want to be angry for the right reasons.
I also did not see any mention of NPR. Does anyone know what was done about defunding them, which is what most of us were hoping for.
No reason to be angry. This is just for a week so the same crap will go on week after week with the cuts growing.
I want to see the media generate the hysteria week after week. This is a long term process and not even the big show.
This is over the budgetary period underway already so mostly those horses are out of the barn. The real show will be when the Ryan budget starts being fought over then the real fire works will start. Let the RATs go nuts over this one it will reduce the impart of their next hissy fit when the Ryan cuts are considered. And, maybe, at some point the voters will see through them enough to blast them out of the Senate.
Don’t be disappointed. This is really just the opening salvo in an effort to retake our government, a process that will take a long time. Big government politicians and their special interests will use every trick to stay in power, but we (still) outnumber them. We have to be ready to go the distance and win this one election at a time. That’s what the liberals have done. They worked decades to build this statist edifice, and dismantling it isn’t going to be quick or easy. Hang in there!
