Clinton Fires Back at GOP After Debate

Planned Parenthood is asking a federal judge to reinstate its Medicaid contract with Arkansas, arguing the state’s decision to block funding over videos secretly filmed by an anti-abortion group was based on “political disfavor”, not the law. What this is about, is the fact that some of the Planned Parenthood facilities perform abortions, which is legal, under the laws of the United States. Our tax dollars instead should fund local public health clinics, which exponentially outnumber Planned Parenthood locations and are not tainted by constant scandals and misdeeds.

In her first week on the job, Kelly has been organizing a local rally in support of Planned Parenthood to take place September 29 in conjunction with national demonstrations.

Hutchinson cut ties with Planned Parenthood after pressure from lawmakers and videos that surfaced showing officials with the organization discussing fetal tissue for medical research.

Arkansas Medicaid doesn’t pay for abortions except in extremely narrow circumstances, such as cases of rape, incest or when the mother’s life is endangered.

The agency received $272,000 in federal funds last fiscal year to provide testing and reporting for sexually transmitted diseases and abstinence education.

The plaintiffs, it says, prefer Planned Parenthood to other Medicaid providers.

Less than a day after the Republican field gathered for their second debate, the Democratic front-runner seized on promises by some of her would-be rivals to defund Planned Parenthood – even if the move results in a politically treacherous government shutdown. For that reason, he said, the provider agreements have been lawfully terminated.

Media is circling the wagons on Fiorina’s Planned Parenthood remark.

As the Utah Department of Health prepares to end its contract with local Planned Parenthood, the organization is bringing in new help to advocate for the agency in its efforts to maintain funding.

“If it’s the services they are trying to shut down, ” said Clinton, “that is just wrong”. Fiorina interjected in the debate and said she would like to “link” two unlikely issues: Planned Parenthood and Iran.

Looking for a birth-control refill? But suddenly, when it’s helpful to bash a relentless Planned Parenthood critic, that “fetus” automatically becomes a “baby”? She asked, “How similar is it?”

Chris Christie also had some fun things to say on the topic. So I think it’s important to sort out. Nonetheless, the videos show organization executives haggling with the presumed parts-procurers, one going so far as to joke she wanted “a Lamborghini”. It would be very damaging and the ugliness in between could also damage the establishment.
