Heads are spinning when NY Dem defended PP's presidents salary.
Interesting in 2014 salry was 450K, one year later it is 600 k.
So maloney gets all indignant about PP's president's salary being questioned...
"New York Democratic Rep. Carolyn Maloney's time came up several minutes later, and her response to Chaffetz was forceful. I'd like to register my opposition and my objection to the chairman beating up on a woman on our witness today for making a good salary."
Have the dems changed their tune about income inequality?
Where was maloney and the dems when Mitts and Carly's salaries were attacked?
This is what Democrats do. They fund certain entities and get some of that tax money back in donations. Why do you think Obama loaned all those green energy companies so much money and they went bankrupt? They donated much of that money back to his campaign. They are funding their campaigns with taxpayer money like the true thieves and cheaters they are.

Republicans do this, their certain entities are businesses though. Why else would the Koch brothers put so much into campaigns and even threaten to fire employees if certain presidential candidates won?

It's a circle of corruption.
So, what do you call the Republican plan of legislating millions in subsidies to for-profit industries like oil that then provide kickbacks to election campaigns?

Then why does PP get discretionary spending (in the form of federal grants)? Medicaid isn't discretionary.
They get no discretionary funds and they get very little grant money. Grant money arrives based upon competitive procurements to deliver specific programs required by HHS. PP gets about seventy million in HHS grants. About three hundred million of their federal funds come from fee for service medicaid funds.
Are people really arguing that PP *doesn't* give millions of dollars to Democrats? Amazing.
Because they don't. There is a PAC set up to lobby on planned parenthood behalf. The funding of the two is completely separate. If you don't like PACs, speak to your Supreme Court. I don't like them either.

A circle of deceptive hypocrisy?
Two wrongs make a right?
I support neither practice.
