Oenonewept That's the first Republican thing he's done in a decade.

Oh, dear.

Interesting

PP is not allowed to ever use Federal funds for abortions and they never have. Private donations fund those type of services.

Fraudulently ? Is PP the only business he suspects of fraud ? Not the airlines or cruise lines with ownership registered in foreign countries ? Just a provider of women’s healthcare ? Just when you thought Mitt might be moderate.
