The House of Representatives just approved an amendment to deny federal funds to Planned Parenthood by a 240 to 185 margin. The amendment to the GOP budget bill was offered by Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana, and promises to be a key flashpoint as the budget battle moves to the Senate.

About time. Planned Parenthood is based upon the Kinsey research, which used pedophiles, rapists, and other criminals.

It will be good that Planned Parenthood will have to go to Soros and company to get the money that won't be coming (hopefully) from the taxpayers anymore.

Didn't Pence vote for all those Bush Budgets and Planned Parenthood subsidies? Glad he has finally come around.
