COMMENTS:
* More taxpayers money spent on stupid wasteful inquisitions by the GOP.
* Imagine if they directed that money toward helping some actual children.
* Don´t like abortion? Don´t have an abortion. It is the law of the land.
* For people who are sooooo against Big Government and reigning in spending, they sure know how to waste your money. As the government gets closer to being broke and regular, hard working folks will begin to see another recession, none of them will lose their paychecks. But hey, this is very, very important and if necessary they can always have 8 more investigation's.
* The obvious answer is the Coat Hanger Committee.
* Are Dems finally growing a pair? Of course it takes the women to take the lead. Go get them and do us proud
* Get use to it, If the republicans take over the "White House" you can expect you tax dollars to be wasted on thing like this. They talk about freedom but just about everything they do and believe in is to limit non believers their rights and freedom.
* Despite numerous State AG's and a House Select Committee EXONERATING Planned Parenthood - the Party that cannot govern or ever tell the truth - continues down its path of spending tax dollars on problems that do not exist.

Democrats Coin A More Accurate Name For House Committee Probing Planned Parenthood
Six Dems will serve on what they call the Select Committee to Attack Women's Health.
By Samantha Lachman, November 4, 2015House Republicans have convened a Select Investigative Panel to investigate "the grisly practices of big abortion providers." But Democrats, who considered boycotting the committee because they think it will target Planned Parenthood exclusively, on Wednesday unveiled their preferred name: the Select Committee to Attack Women's Health.
Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), in a statement, also named Democrats to sit on the committee.
“I am proud to name six strong champions of women, families and facts to stand up against the latest Republican assault on women’s health,” Pelosi said. “Hard-working families deserve better than a taxpayer-funded Republican Select Committee fixated on dismantling women’s health. As Republicans try to take affordable family planning and lifesaving preventive care away from millions of American women, Democrats will be in the room to fight for the truth.”
The Democrats on the committee are Reps. Jan Schakowsky (Ill.), who will be the ranking member; Jerrold Nadler (N.Y.); Diana DeGette (Colo.); Jackie Speier (Calif.); Suzan DelBene (Wash.); and Bonnie Watson Coleman (N.J.). Statements from the members used Pelosi's name for the committee, rather than the GOP's designated title.
Eight Republicans have been named to the panel.
Republicans convened the committee to capitalize on sting videos made by an anti-abortion group that show Planned Parenthood staff members discussing fetal tissue donations for research. Federal law allows the organization to accept reimbursements to cover the processing and transfer of the tissues, but anti-abortion advocates have claimed the provider profited from the donations. Planned Parenthood has insisted it has done nothing illegal and various state and federal investigations have found no evidence of wrongdoing.
Republicans say a special committee is necessary to it can find "the truth" and "build on our work to protect the sanctity of all human life.” But Democrats say the panel will waste taxpayer dollars and is redundant, since other committees are already investigating Planned Parenthood.
