If only Team Red had the house... If only the GOP had the senate... It only we had a Republican president...

Set up and it should have been attached to the highway bill. Money first is McConnell’s motto.

The traitorous, murder-loving weasels probably took a “voice vote”.

It was all for show. The GOPe wanted to make it appear they care about such issues. They wanted this to go away as quickly as possible.
This should tell everyone how far this nation has fallen.

The vote was 53-46, meaning the measure failed the get the 60 votes needed to overcome a Democratic filibuster on bringing the bill up for debate.

I know people can talk themselves into just about anything ... into rationalizing any conceivable position they may hold ... but I truly thought compelling taxpayer financial support of a company that slaughters babies to sell the organs for a profit because the slaughtering "benefits women's health" was too horrible a thought to even consider.
I was wrong.

I thought women can ‘do it all’ or ‘do it themselves’ these days. Haven’t they been liberated from the evil clutches of bras invented by men? Why do we need tax dollars to go to women’s health? Eff’em. Let them indulge in Feminism.

He seemed to have taken his vote back because it was 54 to 43, and than I heard the announcement "McConnell No" Why he did that is beyond me, but even if he didn't the Rat party is the party that want's to kill babies

HERE Cloture not invoked on motion to proceed to S.1881, Dems voting in favor: Donnelly and Manchin. Republicans voting against: Kirk (and ML McConnell in order to reconsider.) Senators not voting: Graham.
Had all Republicans voted in favor, we still would not be able to get the requisite 60 votes to stop a Filibuster...

“GOP Is worthlessness”..........
It certainly has been made perfectly clear, the is NO conservative party any longer. I am switching to “Independent” permanently and have sent memos of my decision to my previous senator and congressman. They DO NOT REPRESENT me nor millions more like me. They can canvas demodummie supporters for their donations, I’ve had it with the rinos.

If Trump runs as an independent, he has my vote.

Now that the horror of Planned Parenthood has been exposed by the videos, and the senators have full knowledge of the horrors, and still voted to fund the organization, they are therefore now complicit with the organization, and incur the same blood guilt as that organization.
