The Newark Star-Ledger has some explosive quotes from one of the two Democratic legislative leaders who recently reached a compromise on a pension reform bill with Gov. Chris Christie regarding the overall state budget:More from Legal Insurrection, Gateway Pundit, The TrogloPundit, Weasel Zippers and iOwnTheWorld. NJ liberals are going to be in a tizzy over this one also: Gov. Christie Again Vetoes Tax Funding for Planned ParenthoodSenate President Stephen Sweeney went to bed furious Thursday night after reviewing the governor’s line-item veto of the state budget.He woke up Friday morning even angrier.“This is all about him being a bully and a punk,” he said in an interview Friday.“I wanted to punch him in his head.”...“You know who he reminds me of?” Sweeney says. “Mr. Potter from ‘It’s a Wonderful Life,’ the mean old bastard who screws everybody.”
Governor Chris Christie has again vetoed state taxpayer funding for the Planned Parenthood abortion business. Christie has delighted pro-life advocates again by deleting the millions in funding from the state budget.This one is just a tad more egregious however:
The New Jersey Senate passed a measure to restore the $7.5 million in funding 26-13 with all of the Senate Democrats voting to restore the Planned Parenthood funds along with Republicans Diane Allen and Jennifer Beck. Pro-life advocates called on him to rescind the funding again, after two of the abortion business’ centers closed last year following the first veto of the funding.
...there are three main reasons, other than the fact that it is the biggest abortion business, to de-fund Planned Parenthood in the Garden State. First, Planned Parenthood was found to have engaged in improper billing practices.
“Last August, the Star Ledger reported that the U.S. Inspector General’s Audits from 2001-2005 specifically cited Planned Parenthood providers for improperly billing Medicaid $597,000 for family planning services which the state had to repay,” Tasy explained.
Planned Parenthood was also found to have aided and abetted the sex trafficking of minors and it failed to comply with health and safety regulations.Shocker, no? Read the whole thing.
“In February, an employee at the Perth Amboy Planned Parenthood family planning clinic was caught on tape aiding and abetting in the sex trafficking of minor girls as young as 13 years old,” she said. “In March, the Planned Parenthood family planning and abortion facility in Mercer County was inspected by the NJ Department of Health and issued a 39 page deficiency report for non-compliance with health and safety regulations, including the failure to properly sterilize a reusable vaginal ultrasound.”
...In early February, an employee at the Planned Parenthood abortion facility in Perth Amboy, New Jersey was caught on videotape working with an alleged sex trafficking ring operator to get abortions done on the underage girls he claimed he was exploiting.
