Earlier this month, Senator Scott Brown voted for a GOP House budget proposal that included efforts to strip federal money for family planning, and specifically for Planned Parenthood, because it offers abortions as part of its medical services.
This week, Brown put out a statement saying “the proposal to eliminate all funding for family planning goes too far.’’
Confused? He wants you to be. It’s part of a pattern.

Given that Brown is running for reelection in the liberal Bay State, it’s possible he will end up opposing the GOP effort to defund Planned Parenthood. But, his vote counts, not his spin. Actions always speak louder than words.
