On the ropes is probably a safe place to be when your opponent hits like Orrin Hatch & co.

Orrin, it’s not a victory when you lose.

Though the House voted overwhelmingly to defund Planned Parenthood, in the Senate, every single Democrat voted to maintain taxpayer funding.

Defund collectivist's collectives...ALL of them.

The U.S.A. becomes financially solvent and we become very low-taxed prosperous/productive citizens in a country which acts as a beacon for individual liberty.

Nothing like getting sucked into a little bait and switch. We won’t pay the servicemen if we cannot extinguish the lives of 1154 babies a day (using the calculation based on 2009 statistics - 52 weeks X 5 days per week = 260 working days. When 300,000 babies are exterminated in that 260 day period).

Face it, present day Republicans are weak. Noticeable when Boehner flinched. Not happy with that man.

There are plenty of libs who will fund Planned Parenthood and NPR if we can ever cut them off.

Boner has been very disappointing. He needs to go.

I disagree they will do anything to keep abortions going.

Got to love it when Hatch tries to declare victory because they were "so close" to it.

Talk to me when you actually defund something, Senator.

For reasons that escape me, murdering babies (especially black babies) is the absolute core belief of the democrat party.

It is going to be a lot harder to eliminate taxpayer funded infanticide than we think.

Defund...if it does such great work, let the liberals pay for it out of their own pockets.

In terms of a grossly out-of-control budget, we must be spending our money on necessities first.

Planned Parenthood isn’t even a government agency or department.

It is someone’s pet project.

At best it’s a luxury or worse, it’s frivolous spending.

Those are the categories of spending that should be cut.

Full disclosure should point out that I am extremely pro-life, but if we were to simply look at the budget, it has to be admitted that this is not necessary spending no matter how many tests they perform. There are other places people can get those tests.

And everyone agrees that Fed dollars don’t go for abortion, so why can’t low income women use their medicaid to get their exams? Answer: they can. And if they don’t qualify for medicaid, because they make too much money, then they can get those tests on their own dime.

Besides, it is clear that PP doesn’t do full breast exams.
