That\u2019s why the Energy and Commerce Committee and the Judiciary Committee are doing an investigation. I expect we will have hearings, and the more we learn, the more it will educate our decisions in the future.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Q: Are you going to use the appropriations process to gut Planned Parenthood?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">A: There is an investigation under way, and I expect there will be hearings.

But let\u2019s get the facts first.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u2026 What?<\/p>\n<p>All the momentum is building against Big Abortion, your pro-life base is incensed, the <a href=\"\/news\/politifact-politicherrypickers-didnt-sound-quite-trustworthy\/\">majority is on your side<\/a>, <a href=\"\/news\/center-medical-progress-founder-videos-exposing-fetal-parts-sale-coming-soon\/\">more videotaped outrages are waiting in the wings<\/a>, and Planned Parenthood is so scared of potential future revelations that they\u2019re doing <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-future-videos-may-contain-actual-baby-dissections-organs\/\">preemptive damage control<\/a>. So how are your instincts telling you to respond?<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re John Boehner, they\u2019re telling you to throw cold water on the whole thing. (Then again, we shouldn\u2019t be surprised, considering this is the same guy <a href=\"\/news\/pro-life-leaders-arrested-at-freetheban-sit-in-held-at-john-boehners-office\/\">on whose watch the 20-Week Abortion Ban was derailed<\/a>, who <a href=\"\/news\/heartless-presidents-and-hapless-opposition\/\">once professed to<\/a> \u201cabsolutely trust\u201d our abortion absolutist President Barack Obama, and who <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-obamacare-funding-clears-house-with-majority-gop-support\/\">has let Planned Parenthood funding sail through the House<\/a> before.)<\/p>\n<p>This is a beautiful example of why Irving Kristol called the GOP \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/digitalcollections.library.cmu.edu\/awweb\/awarchive?type=file&amp;item=400011\">The Stupid Party<\/a>\u201d all those years ago:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">[T]he Republican Party is made uneasy by too close an association with political ideas. In a better world, this would be a desirable, even admirable, trait. But in such a world, the conservative party would indeed be the \u201cnatural\u201d governing party\u2014losing an occasional election, to be sure, but then patiently waiting for the \u201ccommon sense\u201d of the citizenry to reassert itself. That is not the kind of world we live in, and a conservative party which tranquilly watches itself become the party of a minority of registered voters has carried \u201cconservative stupidity\u201d beyond the limits of political reason.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s one thing to say we can\u2019t know exactly what Planned Parenthood should be charged with <a href=\"\/news\/many-crimes-planned-parenthood-committed-one-way-find\/\">until we determine<\/a> exactly what they\u2019re doing and how widespread it is. That\u2019s fine. It\u2019s quite another to suggest that we need an investigation to tell us whether Planned Parenthood still deserves our tax dollars. Of course they don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>We already know their business is killing babies\u2014y\u2019know, Mr. Speaker, the practice <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.gop.com\/docs\/2012GOPPlatform.pdf\">your own party platform<\/a> calls for abolishing, just before professing to \u201coppose using public revenues to [\u2026] fund organizations which perform or advocate it.\u201d We already know they <a href=\"http:\/\/liveaction.org\/projects\/\">lie to patients, neglect their welfare<\/a>, and <a href=\"\/news\/planned-parenthood-wanted-an-abstinence-education-grant-in-michigan-yes-really\/\">promote self-destructive behavior to children<\/a>. The Center for Medical Progress videos are highlighting new dimensions of the inhuman agenda that\u2019s been clear for years, not some hitherto-unknown side of a seemingly benign organization.<\/p>\n<p>This is where Republican leadership always blows it: a winning issue falls into their lap, but where they should be steeling themselves for a long, protracted public-relations fight to move the ball closer to the end zone, with lawmakers finding every camera they can and the RNC carpet-bombing the airwaves with ads alternating between sound bites of Frau Doktor Nucatola <a href=\"\/news\/breaking-planned-parenthood-director-caught-on-tape-selling-aborted-baby-parts\/\">talking about &#8220;crushing&#8221; babies<\/a> and Obama declaring \u201c<a href=\"\/news\/barack-obamas-disgrace-filled-celebration-of-planned-parenthood\/\">God bless Planned Parenthood<\/a>,\u201d they instead hem and haw and stumble around for the minimum action necessary to keep the base complacent.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s like watching Charlie Brown falling on his face for the umpteenth time, except Lucy\u2019s nowhere to be seen and the blockhead has somehow yanked the football from under his own foot.<\/p>\n<p>I am <a href=\"\/news\/displaying-barbarity-baby-parts-revelation-poses-existential-threat-planned-parenthood\/\">still optimistic<\/a> that this scandal will clarify the horror of the issue for many undecided Americans and move public opinion closer to life in the long term, but meaningful policy changes in the near future are far from certain. So if pro-lifers want more than tough talk and a few show committees from their elected representatives, then we\u2019ll have to put on the pressure, and not relent until we see results.<\/p>\n<p>UPDATE: The Daily Signal <a href=\"http:\/\/dailysignal.com\/2015\/07\/24\/conservatives-to-boehner-dont-delay-defunding-planned-parenthood\/\">reports<\/a> that Representative Dianne Black, who is sponsoring a bill to immediately defund Planned Parenthood, has responded to Boehner&#8217;s remarks:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe all want the facts and there\u2019s no question that a full investigation is needed, but we already know more than enough information to defund Planned Parenthood today,\u201d Rep. Diane Black, R-Tenn., told The Daily Signal in response to Boehner\u2019s recent comments that he would wait to allow a vote to defund Planned Parenthood. \u201cTime is of the essence and I am personally urging House leadership to bring up my legislation to defund Planned Parenthood for a vote without delay.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lot of congressional Republicans, most GOP presidential candidates, several governors, and even some pro-choice politicians and commentators are excoriating Planned Parenthood over their organ harvesting side business\u2014launching investigations, calling to eliminate their tax subsidies, and in Ted Cruz\u2019s case, demanding criminal prosecution.
