- Wisconsin Planned Parenthood Next Target in GOP Attack – “The Hyde Amendment may have prevented any taxpayers from paying for abortion services since the 1970s, Planned Parenthood may only spend less than three percent of its budget on abortions and hundreds of thousands of patients may depend on these clinics for their health needs, but conservatives will stop at nothing to have a pro-life talking point for their next campaign.”

Now, that said, I don’t think either man “sinned” enough to be forced out of office — that’s up to their constituents to decide.
