Abortion

One Little Victory

Some rare good news from the Republican War Against Women:

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Health and Human Services Department rejected changes in Indiana's Medicaid plan Wednesday, saying it illegally bans funding for Planned Parenthood, and sought to make clear that a similar fate awaits other states that pass legislation barring any qualified health care provider.

State officials signaled they would not accept HHS' decision.

However, Mitch Daniels and the Indiana Republicans already won their battle -- they showed wingnuts that they're willing to threaten the lives of women in order to win some far-right votes.
