Why do republicans hate Planned Parenthood? I mean, I don't hate them and I'm a man who once applied for a job there, and rather than interview me, they reopened their candidate search after they didn't find their "man."

Everyone agrees that the deficits and spending need to be brought under control. But in any civilized society, there is an important balance between slashing spending and maintaining programs that help people survive. It makes me physically ill [Dave, too] to think that republicans can be so heartless when it comes to the needs of the poor and elderly and yet won't touch the tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans. Then there are the social conservatives who want to tie issues like abortion and climate change to balancing the budget. They would go as far as shutting down the government before allowing money to go to health care programs for women or environmental protection. Thankfully, the budget deal was reached without bowing to these ludicrous demands, but rest assured, the attacks on Planned Parenthood will continue.
