Latest on defunding Planned Parenthood

Latest on defunding Planned Parenthood votes/chatter - Jill Stanek: "Sources close to the situation told me yesterday they don’t believe Republicans intended to use Planned Parenthood as a bargaining chip, as has been speculated. They agreed it simply boiled down to Republicans not having the stomach to shut down the government over PP. That said, Republicans did get a major concession from President Obama and Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid re: PP as part of the final Continuing Resolution FY11 budget deal: an agreement for both houses of Congress to hold a separate vote to defund PP as well as a vote to defund Obamacare."
