Wow, What a development. Thank God.

In-LastMinute-Save-Texas-Abortion-Clinics-Can-ReOpen - Newsy Story

The U.S. Supreme Court has put a hold on a ruling that would have closed all but eight abortion clinics in Texas. That order stems from a 2013 law enforcing stricter conditions on abortion clinics statewide.

KXAN: "The law required abortion clinics to meet hospital-like building standards. Those standards meant all but a handful of clinics in the state had to close."

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court halted those requirements and others from a federal appeals court ruling, which also said doctors performing abortions must be able to admit patients at nearby hospitals — only clinics in McAllen and El Paso are exempt from that part of the ruling.

Thank goodness. Though this is just a stay. They have yet to rule on the constitutionality of the Texas law.
 

Actually federal law prohibits any federal funding for abortions. Not federal money was given to Planned Parenthood to perform abortions. All federal funds received by PP were for other women's health related issues like contraception, STD testing, gynecological examinations and the like.

And Obuma doesn't LIE! :rolleyes-41:

All federal money given to PP is a matter of public record. If you believe that PP was given 540 million to perform abortions, show us. Don't tell us.

They know that, but it's a favorite talking point for the Right.

Who keeps tabs on the 54 million after it's in PP's hands?

That's 540 million. And PP does. Their records expenditures of federal funds are also public.

Either you have evidence to back your accusation, or you don't. And by your exclusive reliance on innuendo and insinuation, you clearly don't.
 
the voter id law stay though

An en banc ruling of the Fifth Circuit has issued a stay against last Friday’s order striking down Texas voter identification laws.

The Court looked at four key factors when deciding whether or not to grant a stay pending appeal: (1) whether the stay applicant has made a strong showing that he
is likely to succeed on the merits; (2) whether the applicant will be irreparably injured absent a stay; (3) whether issuance of the stay will substantially injure the other parties interested in the proceeding; and (4) where the public interest lies.

And how do you divide the 2 entities, the abortion clinic and the health care centers that are under one roof?

"Justine Sessions of Planned Parenthood acknowledged that, but said some abortion clinics and health centers are housed within the same buildings. She suggested that if it were too expensive to upgrade the abortion clinics, then it could also force a shut-down of the health care clinics in the same building."
 

And when you look at the actual quote, that's not what she says at all:

Justine Sessions of Planned Parenthood acknowledged that, but said some abortion clinics and health centers are housed within the same buildings. She suggested that if it were too expensive to upgrade the abortion clinics, then it could also force a shut-down of the health care clinics in the same building.

So I ask again, what evidence do you have that Planned Parenthood receives 540 million dollars from the government to perform abortions?

Yep and the far left wants Kermit Gosnell to be the set standardt. And proof that the far left hate women.

Says who? Are you quoting yourself as the 'far left' again?
 
Skylar, perhaps I should break the news to you. Planned Parenthood did receive half a billion dollars in government grants and reimbursements, aka taxpayer money. All you need to do is assimilate their 2012-2013 annual report:

http://www.plannedparenthood.org/files/AR-FY13_111213_vF_rev3_ISSUU.pdf

$540.6 million in government grants (note the word government) and reimbursements were given to Planned Parenthood. It says so on page 20 of the report.

And?

The issue wasn't whether or not Planned Parenthood received federal funds. They receive hundreds of millions a year for women's health issues. The claim was that they received 540 million dollars from the federal government to perform abortions.

Which, if you'll check page 20......there's no evidence to support. Next time acquaint yourself with the discussion before commenting. It saves us both time.

Nope look at what the far left want the women in Texas to go through. Typical far left wants to harm women and make sure that the abortion clinics are not up to hospital standards.

Why does the far left hate women?

Your claim wasn't 'hospital standard'. But Kermit Gosnell standards. You seem to be backpedalling a bit now.
