The move comes after Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) slammed McConnell during a blistering floor speech earlier Friday, suggesting the Kentucky Republican wanted to dodge a vote on defunding Planned Parenthood.

So the old fart is going to sacrifice planned parenthood.

Wonder what kind of a deal he has made with them?

Maybe they’ll give him some baby parts to replace his tiny heart and other things.

Let’s see how this works out. What are the chances that they strip PP of funding, and Obama signs it? Or they override his veto?

I’ll believe what Mitch says if he actually puts this through.

Refreshing.

McConnell’s not doing crap. Rand Paul is the one forcing the issue with Rule 14.

McConnell better hustle and get every one of Cruz’ amendments filed or he’s toast.

It’s not “planned parenthood” and it never has been. That’s just a goofy commie lib name they came up with to make the more gullible among us to like them. When you murder your baby, well, that’s not really parenting. A more appropriate name would be The Baby Killing Hoods.

That is all show. McConnell knows that if it passes the Senate and House, Obama will veto it. And the votes to over ride the veto are not there. Don’t be fooled by this.

Yeah ol’ McConnel gonna show that Cruz up.

We’ll see what shenanigans McConnel will pull now. Planned Parenthood isn’t going down that easy.

What’s the hurry, Mitch? PP isn’t doing anything now that they haven’t been doing for decades.

Unless they attach it to a must pass bill its a fraud to make themselves look good knowing it has no chance of passing,

I will support Ted Cruz financially to the best of my ability.

I thought a Ronald Reagan came along only once in a lifetime.

I was wrong.

I will crawl through flaming broken glass to vote for Ted Cruz every time he’s on a ballot.

I understood that some lower conservative Rep. had put it on the Rule 14 track and Yertle is taking credit. He had no choice under the rules (but again, he doesn’t care about rules.)

It doesn't matter what the Republicans in either chamber pass on PP.

They WILL NOT DEFEND THEIR BILL.

Kabuki. Nothing more.

All Republicans in Congress (with the exception of possibly Cruz) use deceit as their currency and they buy people like us.

Well, the used to.

This is actually a maneuver by Senator Mike Lee. The old fart had no choice.
