GOP Weekly Address:
Chip Diller, Cathy McMorris Rodgers explains why poop tastes yummy and you should ask for more, peasants.

When she got to the bit about human trafficking, I wondered, "What about human parts trafficking?"
Unless I missed it, nothing on the feckless Iran deal, Keystone Pipeline, Military cutbacks, or Obamacare either. The gap btwn Pub & Dem continues to close. All that was spared was a smiling Jeb softly golf clapping off stage.

#1  Screw Ms. Cathy Two Last Names (fucking moron, a mere step below Kelly Ayotte) and all of the current Beltway Party. They hold us in complete contempt and they all need to be voted out of leadership positions & office.

#2  Daily Human sacrifice is again part of popular human belief.

And this is exactly what this is.
You know it is wrong, they know it is wrong.

The only innocent victims are those painfully executed for political gain.

#3  the GOP should die. Its become the Whigs.

#4  Daily Human sacrifice is again part of popular human belief.

It is not part of popular belief. It is part of the corrupt, self-loathing elite's belief system.

America is penalizing marriage and subsidizing abortion. Is it any wonder that America is disappearing?

One thing Planned Parenthood defenders have to answer is:
How is this any different from the Nazis making lampshades out of Jewish skin or soap out of Jewish fat? Does this mean the Nazis were OK?

The democrats are doing the bidding of their rich benefactors. the pubs are trying to keep the issue alive for 2016. disgusting.

#5  How is this any different from the Nazis making lampshades out of Jewish skin or soap out of Jewish fat?

Nazi pikers! Margins from 'lampshade sales' would have paled in comparison to today's parts market.

#6  Computers have difficulty with people who have more than one last name because, just like today's GOP, it is not logical. Programmers have to jump through hoops for people like McMorris Rodgers. The least they could do is put a hyphen between the two so called last names so the space doesn't trip up some unsuspecting programmer but even then it doesn't make sense. A name is either first, last or somewhere in the middle. You want two middle names? OK. You can have as many middle names as you want. But, please, only one last name.

Government
Senate blocks GOP bill to halt PP fed funds. Lindsey Graham AWOL.
[AP] The Senate blocked a Republican drive Monday to terminate federal funds for Planned Parenthood, setting the stage for the GOP to try again this fall amid higher stakes -- a potential government shutdown that could echo into next year's presidential and congressional elections.

The derailed legislation was the Republican response to videos, recorded secretly by anti-abortion activists, showing Planned Parenthood officials dispassionately discussing how they sometimes provide medical researchers with tissue from aborted fetuses. Those videos have led conservatives to accuse the group of illegally selling the organs for profit -- strongly denied by Planned Parenthood -- and inserted abortion and women's health into the mix of issues to be argued in the 2016 campaign.

Monday's mostly party-line vote was 53-46 to halt Democratic delays aimed at derailing the bill, seven short of the 60 votes the Republicans needed. Even so, the GOP is hoping to reap political gains because the videos have ignited the party's core conservative, anti-abortion voters.
Abortion parts party wins. Graham too busy elsewhere to be concerned about the unborn.

#1  Remind me again why taxpayer money is going for abortions?
Posted by: JohnQC || 08/04/2015 9:39 Comments || Top||

#2  Interesting that abortions statistically remove a lot more future voters for abortion than against it.
Posted by: Glenmore || 08/04/2015 10:34 Comments || Top||

#3  Simple fact. We elected a majority of Republicans, and we still don't control the Senate.
Posted by: Iblis || 08/04/2015 11:17 Comments || Top||

#4  They try to hang their murderous hats on "wymn's rights." Seems a bit strange since at least half of the infants aborted.... are female.

#5  ...in third world countries that get sonograms, most are. There's 'free choice' for you.

#8  Deacon, you can say that again.

#9  Remind me again why taxpayer money is going for abortions?

Because it's a lot cheaper than lifelong welfare payments/price of incarceration?

#10  Ever the practical one.

#11  Don't know what happened. I don't usually stutter.
Posted by: Deacon Blues || 08/04/2015 18:36 Comments || Top||

#12  Because it's a lot cheaper than lifelong welfare payments/price of incarceration?

No, they have that covered with the millions of imported voters to make up for those they've dumped into the bucket.
