Today's Cartoon - Republicans Continuing Dishonest Assault On Planned Parenthood

Item:
Republicans are determined to push on with their investigation of Planned Parenthood, even after a Texas grand jury cleared the organization of wrongdoing on Monday and instead indicted two anti-abortion activists who targeted the family planning provider in a series of undercover videos.  [snip]
The grand jury’s decision hasn’t affected Republicans' plans to continue investigating Planned Parenthood, however. Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), who is chairing a select investigative committee that purports to be investigating “big abortion providers" -- but for all intents and purposes is only scrutinizing Planned Parenthood -- said in a statement Tuesday that “the mission of our investigation has not changed.”
Republicans on the Presidential campaign clown car bus are also lamenting the turn of events and continuing to pursue the false case against Planned Parenthood, because, well, assholes.
