Yeah, because Planned Parenthood is all about not giving women procedures that they want.

What the fuck kind of even logic is this shit.

Good point. This contradicts oft-repeated Republican rhetoric, against government meddling in the free market. As the rhetoric goes, who knows better “what the market wants”, a heavy-handled government, or a private organization like Planned Parenthood? But that’s not what they’re saying now.

In my opinion, this is a fundamental problem for the GOP: the clash between small-government “libertarians” or whatever, and the “let’s have a big-government Christian theocracy” crowd. This is a major point of conflict, and it’s not going to go away by itself. As we already know here at LGF, it’s fascinating to see how this GOP-on-GOP conflict plays out.
