Congress just voted for a Republican amendment to cut all federal funding from Planned Parenthood health centers, one of the most trusted providers of basic health care and family planning in our country.

And if that wasn’t enough, Republicans are pushing to eliminate all funds for the only federal family planning program. (For humans. But Republican Dan Burton has a bill to provide contraception for wild horses.)

So, if you’re a wild horse and you sow wild oats, there’s help from the GOP; but if you’re human, well that’s a different bucket of oats.

I didn’t know the GOP cared so much for wildlife.

Or maybe they just want to make sure there’s more cannon fodder for the war machine.
