Vitter introduces legislation defunding Planned Parenthood.

Earlier this year, Sen. David Vitter (R-LA), who was named in the DC Madam prostitution scandal, co-sponsored the Marriage Protection Amendment, which would amend the Constitution to declare that marriage “shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman.” Now, “as he seeks to shore up his bona fides with conservative voters,” Vitter has introduced legislation slashing funding for family planning services:

vitter125.jpgThe Louisiana senator has introduced an amendment to the omnibus spending bill before the Senate to drastically cut funding for family planning programs. Vitter’s amendment states that “none of the funds appropriated under this Act shall be made available to Planned Parenthood for any purpose under title X of the Public Health Service Act.”

As the Washington Post observed, Vitter may be trying to outflank his potential primary opponent, the Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins. RH Reality Check has more.

    – This is also a tip off that the poster is a fraud. It is one of their examples of their uses of absolute and just nonsensical phrasing to see how close they can get to the edge without being detected. Come on what living breathing normal person says “commies”? Well other than those nice people in those “eldercare” facilities that you should go visit more often but who you have no problem rambling on about after a few drinks and a need to have the honor of someone you are related tangentially to somehow shifted osmotically to you

    Well, ya’ll know how well that appeal to the base thing worked out in the last election. I’m amused at the idea of ultrasound to discourage abortion, where I live the local fake pregnancy crisis center discourages ultrasound for fear of detecting severe defects that could lead to abortion. Of course, should one choose life for a child that requires a lot of expensive care, our options are pretty much limited to holding a bake sale in front of Walmart.

  29. Wayne A. Schneider says:

    dbadass,

    In addition to the “liberal commies” tip off, we also have the ignorant right-wing “factoid” that the only service Planned Parenthood provides is abortions. In addition to being revealing of the poster’s gender (mostly male in this case), it demonstrates a profound lack of understanding about the reproductive rights and issues of women. Ignorant posters like that one tend to equate “contraception” with “abortion.” To them, providing condoms or, worse in their minds, the so-called “morning after pill” is equivalent to having an abortion.

    Can we get some intelligent conservatives to debate here, instead of acerebralist trolls like barack obomber?


  30. Canny55 says:

    Yeah, I despise the ignorant conservatives that believe that Planned Parenthood is merely an abortion provider with maniacal laughter in the background. They actually provide quite a bit of family information via brochures and the occasional parenthood seminar for teenagers and adults.

    But let’s take the conservative route and tell teenagers, “Just be abstinent and all will be well. We won’t tell you anything else that would prepare you for certain situations!”

    Actually Vitter is onto something. They should incorporate diapers into abstinence-only health education in America’s schools. If both partners keep their diapers on, you can be pretty sure that no one will get pregnant!

    Truth spoken friend. Although, if I may. I believe parenting plays a major role in feeding habits. This is not an excuse at all for how Corporations Ram this crap at us, which is the major cause of these deseasis (sic). My son was diagnosed very young genetic type II diabetes, now going on 19. I only say this to impart my perspective on these problems. We not only Nationally, but Internationally as human beings absolutely have serious serious health and medical corruption of our genepool.
    Rant paused…..


  46. BobbyG says:

    Back on topic. Regarding womens’ reproductive rights, and these Vitter et al culture wars clowns. I found this David Frum observation pretty cool:

    …On the one side, the president of the United States: soft-spoken and conciliatory, never angry, always invoking the recession and its victims. This president invokes the language of “responsibility,” and in his own life seems to epitomize that ideal: He is physically honed and disciplined, his worst vice an occasional cigarette. He is at the same time an apparently devoted husband and father. Unsurprisingly, women voters trust and admire him.

    And for the leader of the Republicans? A man who is aggressive and bombastic, cutting and sarcastic, who dismisses the concerned citizens in network news focus groups as “losers.” With his private plane and his cigars, his history of drug dependency and his personal bulk, not to mention his tangled marital history, Rush is a walking stereotype of self-indulgence – exactly the image that Barack Obama most wants to affix to our philosophy and our party. And we’re cooperating! Those images of crowds of CPACers cheering Rush’s every rancorous word – we’ll be seeing them rebroadcast for a long time…

    Yep. Y’all keep digging.


  47. Jane E. Schneider says:

    Traj, sounds like a plan. When Wayne doesn’t want to respond directly to a troll, he’ll start his response with something like “Some commenters apparently believe that…”, then goes on to politely and logically trash the troll’s comment. I like that approach.


  48. Ape-Man says:

    Maybe we need a psychology approach to this. We are dealing with two co-dependant problems with the republicans and the MSM. The MSM and the Republicans are co-dependants and need to be seperated for the good of them and the good of us all.

    Never knew that. The story I heard at the time was the Dregs got screwed over by their producer. Since they couldn’t make decent money, they broke up.

    I was Morse once as an opening act for McLaughlin, DiMeola, and Paco DeLucia when they were touring as a trio. For my money Morse blew all three of them away. Of all the 60’s rockers who died too young, Allman is/was one of the ones who bothered me the most.

    So if Vitter knocked-up one of his prostitutes, he’d insist she carry it to term, thereby depriving her of income, and pay for her maternity expenses and pay child support etc, even though he has a family already? Well that’s what I call responsible!

    He should include that declaration of commitment in ALL his speeches from now on!


  94. BobbyG says:

    Here’s what I wrote on my blog last April about Amendments, tangentially apopos of this issue w/respect to Vitter’s folly:

    Difficult, most difficult. Moreover, a difficulty that will not be attenuated one whit by a problematic “Human Life Amendment” or any lesser judicial or legislative intrusions into a woman’s moral and physiological autonomy.

    Perhaps, for many politicians, voicing support for a Human Life Amendment is a cheap, expeditious way to provide themselves “pro-life” cover where needed, given that our federal amendment passage bar is so onerous (for good reason) — i.e., approval by a 2/3 vote in each house of Congress and subsequently ratified by 3/4 of the states (typically within 7 years), or, alternatively, as offered up during a Constitution Convention, and again then passed along for 3/4 of states’ legislative approval (the latter has never happened during the span of U.S. history). Consequently, one can loudly bandy the Amendment proposal about to posture as “pro-life” without ever likely having to walk the accountability talk (one could indeed say the same of that hardy, even more frivolous, perennial — the Flag Burning Amendment).

    Failing that, — despite what should be the fatally dispositive equal protection problems heretofore discussed — much damage could still be wreaked by the continuing passage of logically unconstitutional 14th Amendment restrictions via new state or federal legislation and muddled inferior court rulings. And, one more Scalia/Roberts/Alito/Thomas vote on the Court will give them the opportunity to overturn Roe and create perhaps decades more courtroom wrangling, with women suffering in the balance.

    baked pie! Tempting, no? :D

    As opposed to frozen? Hmmm…are the eggs cooked?

    Okay, back on topic: Vitter “co-sponsored the Marriage Protection Amendment, which would amend the Constitution to declare that marriage “shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman.” The amendment didn’t say “a man and a woman and the man’s favorite hookers”, did it? How on earth does this guy think that he has the moral certitude to stand against Planned Parenthood, which does so much to help young women and mothers? In my opinion, it’s not just that he probably believes that PP is only about abortion, but that he believes, as many conservatives do, that women are still second-class citizens who should stay at home, have babies, and obey their ‘menfolk.’ Unless, of course, the women are talented hookers.

    Why does this man think he can amend the constitution without the support of other members of congress . Wouldn’t you think if you wanted to add to the constitution you’d want to get as many people to cosponsor so you’d have a better chance?

    Thanks. I’m a real-life Dr Doolittle, a stray magnet. Max is a stray. We;ve had him 15 years. Two dogs, both strays, Lucie (as in “Lu-ceeeeee, you got some ’splainin’ to dooo!!!”) and Jaco, my sweet short-bus dog (picked up on a freeway ramp). He is definitely minus one-sigma.

    I have about $2,500 in veterinary repair bills from their episodic fights. I once got in between one and got my arm shredded for my trouble. Now I just let it go, and them load the wounded into the car to the vet.

    I also once had a cockatiel fly into the house through my open master bedroom window. Swell. All Max sees is Thanksgiving dinner.

    Couldn’t find an owner. We went to Petsmart, bought a cage and all this stuff.

    Then it keeled over and died one day.

    Then, a friggin’ rabbit shows up in the yard one day. Hung out around the woodpile. Of course, we fed it.

    The dogs killed him after a while.

    The ailing Max. Ruler of my daily schedule.

    The study wasn’t based upon idiology, it was based upon the number ot homes or businesses that used credit cards to purchase porn. It was graded upon that basis and equal credits were given according to population, etc. Utah came out number one. I assume that the religeous preferences of any particular demographic paid no part.

    The results clearly showed that Utah topped the nation in the money spent on porn. It’s not an indictment of Mormonos by any means. Utah just happens to be a largely Mormon community that has a bunch of bigamist homes and provided 80% of the money to support Prop 8 in California, a state not their own.

    Seems a bit odd.. . the bigamy, self-righteonous, porn and all.

    I’m happy to see Vittor in a race to the farthest right edge of the political spectrum. The Republicans are having trouble trotting out their traditional bugaboos to frighten the people; they caused so many scary problems while in power that everyday citizens have legitimate fears on their minds and notice that not only do Republicans refuse to constructively engage in finding solutions, they remain fixated on their tired old inner demons.

  273. SnoBird says:

    Vitter ain’t helping you.


  274. Peter C says:

    I’m not so surprised about Red states and porn. A lot of porn has a terribly distasteful subtext about the subjugation of women which plays right into the Republican mindset. Porn is the natural outlet for the repressed sexuality of radical fundamentalism and its tendency toward expansive and restrictive authoritarian intrusions into private behavior.


  275. SnoBird says:

    Peter C:

    So what is the answer? Let your freak flag fly? Seems to me, just enjoy your own sexuality and leave other people alone.

    While in no way do I support bigamy in Utah, I think its ludicrous for Utah Mormons to provide 80% of the funding for an anti-gay marriage amendment to the CALIFORNIA Constitution. If the Fed needs to get involved, so long as it isn’t the Bush Adm, so be it.

    How could Cheney, with his lesbo daughter,be against equal rights? It’s going to happen, it’s just a matter of time. Does any politician really want to be on the wrong side of this issue? It’s kind of like Rush . . . so sorry, I was taken all out of context.

    Not gay, but this makes me mad.


  276. SnoBird says:

    On second thought, Gay, I’m gay, we’re all gay. If Utah had a few more admitted gays or folks who liked their sex a little kinky and could fess up to it, they’d be watching a whole lot less porn and spending more time at home . . . with at least one of their wives.

    While on topic, DC is no place to be dictating mores to America. You have your high priced hookers, but your wives and children are at home. Here in the hood, we have problems, our homes are in foreclosure, your children are on drugs, there are meth labs next door, if you live in Utah, you apparently have a porn problem, gang violence is pervasive, if you live on the Mexican border, kidnappings are a real problem . . . get out of DC and live like an American, you represent us, shouldn’t you live live we live?

    Signed, disgusted with the bunch of you.


  277. Peter C says:

    Cheney doesn’t care so much about morality; he’s out to eliminate the restrictions on the power of money. He’ll happily buy all the priveleges he can for himself and his family. He wants his money to put him above the law.

    He’s happy to cozy up to the religious zealots by saying what they want to hear as long as his wealth puts him beyond the reach of their behavioral strictures.


  278. CageyCretin says:

    Haven’t read all the comments yet, but I have a new high horse and i want to present it — that being, how is it considered rational at all that one can insert provisions and earmarks into a bill, vote against it, and STILL receive those earmarks or provisions? The moment anyone votes against a bill, every earmark or provision that person inserted should be immediately stripped from the bill. Across the board.

    just my thinking about what is rational.

    The also visualized vitty wearing his baby bonnetttttt is too much to think about. AHhhhh! hahahaha!

    How much do you wanna bet he take risks and went bareback with all the ho’s? We all know it was/is done on our time and money? YUCK!

    vitty shouldn’t show his disgraced face, for real. Then again like you said, he likes playing baby and getting spanked (mentally and physically.)

    Clearly, the GOP has one strategy: slash and burn. If they can’t control Congress or the White House, then they would just as soon burn it all down.

    Vitter is a disgrace, and why he is still serving in Congress is beyond me. Maybe it is time for someone to send a new box of diapers to his office and give him something else to do.

    MCMetal Says:

    Earlier this year, Sen. David Vitter (R-LA), who was named in the DC Madam prostitution scandal, co-sponsored the Marriage Protection Amendment, which would amend the Constitution to declare that marriage “shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman.”

    In utter seriousness, I believe that the framers of the Constitution would have laughed these troglodytes out the proverbial door. Faced with the problem of establishing and effectively protecting an entirely new nation with almost entirely new ideas of government, the framers would have hooted to see a “definition” of marriage as any sort of “political” responsibility. They were quite careful when they wrote the Bill of Rights, and they very carefully selected the essential freedoms that needed/would need governmental protection.

    In their minds, marriage would have been a religious issue–and they were QUITE precise in keeping government OUT OF RELIGION. Because the protection of church against state is one way only–the State is MOT protected from the “church”–demagogues have tried steadily to inflict their own “religious” ideas on the populace.

    [I'm another patriotic liberal Christian, by the way--and I couldn't disagree more with what the "moral majority" has tried to accomplish in the name of "christianity."]

    Here’s hoping. Your use of “acerebralist” will throw 99% into a feeding frenzy. The other 1%, who understand the word, might show up.

    The Republic of Stupidity Says:

    Sorry… you’re not very consistent… I forget… are you Roy or Siegfried?

    It is neither. Seigfried and Roy face REAL tigers, not paper ones.

    Tony Perkins might run for Vitter’s seat? Lord help us all if that happens..

    orange Says:

    we are going to give back to you punishment many times
    greater than we have dreamed, God is on our side
    You people think you are so much better than we are but you know the truth is the exact opposite

    Did you get your information about God being on “our side” from the Book of Second Opinions”? Or was that “Twenty-three Skiddoo, Row 6, Seat 12″?]

    Were you aware that many Nazis had “Gott Mitt Uns” printed on their helmets?

    You, however, don’t need a helmet, however–you obviously have no brains to protect.

    The Louisiana senator has introduced an amendment to the omnibus spending bill before the Senate to drastically cut funding for family planning programs. Vitter’s amendment states that “none of the funds appropriated under this Act shall be made available to Planned Parenthood for any purpose under title X of the Public Health Service Act.”

    “Bill of attainder”, anyone? Or just bad practise…. Isn’t this a “reverse earmark”?

    Cheers,

    “that marriage “shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman.”

    …and an assortment of hookers.

    Maybe it is time for someone to send a new box of diapers to his office and give him something else to do.

    Do they have to be unused diapers? Just asking.


  296. Wayne A. Schneider says:

    orange,

    You’re really “Jay”, aren’t you? I recall him making a claim just like yours that he would take over the thread and make it his.

    unlike you guys I understand irony

    I have serious doubts that you even understand English.

    The more I read about what GOP supporters believe and think, the more I believe that they are a threat to America and her people.
