The Republican War Against Women

The Republicans don't want women to have crucial health services:

A draft continuing resolution to fund the government, due out tomorrow from the House appropriations committee, will cut $327 million in family planning funding that goes to organizations like Planned Parenthood but that cannot be used to pay for abortions. This money, instead, is used to fund cancer screenings, birth control, and other health care services for poor people. The $327 million is the sum total of this sort of funding under current law. The House GOP is trying to zero out Planned Parenthood.

So this has nothing to do with abortion. The Republicans don't want women to have cancer screenings and birth control. Shannyn Moore tweets:

@shannynmoore: Planned Parenthood diagnosed my breast cancer, wrote grant for my surgeries. They saved my life. I'm sick about the House

Meanwhile, Fat Jesus -- Chris Christie -- is doing the same thing in New Jersey.

Part of this has to do with the Republican war against women's rights, and part of this has to do with a James O'Keefe/Breitbart style sting operation against Planned Parenthood.

And why isn't every Democrat in the world screaming: "Why are the Republicans against cancer screenings for women?! Why are Republicans against healthcare for women?!"
