House Votes To De-Fund Planned Parenthood, 240-185

Where are the Jobs?"

Now that House Republicans have saved the babies, they are debating stripping funds from the Affordable Care Act. Because fetuses are sacred. American citizens? Not so much.

You can watch the House debate on de-funding health care live on C-SPAN.

Update: So far, 3 out of 4 amendments to strip all funding from the Affordable Care Act have passed. They're voting on the last one, stripping IRS of any funds to carry out duties under the ACA. It'll pass too. I can only hope members who cast these votes suffer the consequences of their decisions, personally and painfully.

Update 2:As Republicans succeeded in serving their corporate and ideological taskmasters today, they all applauded and patted each other on the back. When Democrats applauded last year, it was because they had given something to people. When Republicans applaud, it's because they've taken something away.
