Boehner and the GOP will continue their attack on Planned Parenthood. They will continue to add it into bills and hope, eventually, people will tire of hearing about it, and stop calling. They are hoping they will pass a ban on funding quietly, because we have moved on to the next offensive thing they are doing publicly.

KEEP CALLING.

KEEP DONATING.

KEEP MARCHING.

THIS WILL NOT EVER BE OVER.

DEFEND THE UTERI. TRUST INDIVIDUALS WITH THEIR OWN BODIES.

FOREVER.

I will keep paying attention.  I am going to stay vigilant.  Stay tuned…

We must keep fighting.

Apparently the senator responded, explaining that the statement was not meant to be “factual” … ummm WHAT?!

WHO IS PRO-LIFE NOW?

DROP THE RIDER THAT WILL DE-FUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD AND CAUSE PEOPLE TO DIE FROM PREVENTABLE AND TREATABLE CANCER.  And then you can PAY THE MILITARY PERSONNEL WHO RISK THEIR LIVES EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF THE FUCKING DAY.

Then LOTS of life will be honored.  Seems so fucking simple to me.

A US Army soldier protests the potential federal government shutdown. American troops at home and abroad would receive only half a paycheck on April 15th before their salaries are halted altogether if the US Government fails to pass a spending budget by midnight on Friday. In addition to the salary freezes, life insurance policies for troops killed in the line of combat would not be paid to military families until a government shutdown is lifted, CNN reports.

I am literally incapable of comprehending what is going on with our government these days.  How does any of it make sense? .. OH WAIT. IT DOESN’T!

Extreme Measure of the Day: With a government shutdown looming, Maryland Democratic Rep. Donna Edwards felt she had no choice but to resort to quoting from a White Stripes song in order to drive her point home.

Rep. Speier on Planned Parenthood and a Government Shutdown

Things are getting more and more out of control every day.  Please sign Planned Parenthood’s letter to Boehner!

The assault on Planned Parenthood is unjustified. It is penny-wise and pound foolish. The law strictly and clearly prohibits the use of federal funds for abortion services. The Republicans’ elimination of funding for Planned Parenthood, will in the end cost more than it saves by ending the ability of millions of American women to receive family planning services, breast and cervical cancer screenings and preventative healthcare at cost-efficient Planned Parenthood centers. And the denial of simple birth control and family planning services may well increase both the number of unintended pregnancies and abortions in our country.

What happens if GOP extremists halt those cancer screenings, stop prevention of STDs and end affordable contraception? Republicans can’t believe defunding Planned Parenthood or Title X will put an end to cancer, or even to sex — it won’t. So the result will be more undetected cancers and more STDs, but also more unplanned pregnancies and more abortions.
