GOP congressman's wife proves to all of us she's a total ditz...



Just how stupid are the GOP "rank and file?"
Take a look.

GOP lawmaker’s wife: Blame Obama if Republicans shut down government over Planned Parenthood

Former MTV The Real World cast member — and wife of Republican Rep. Sean Duffy (WI) — Rachel Campos-Duffy said on CNN Sunday that President Barack Obama is so determined to fund Planned Parenthood that he will “shut down the government” to do it.

In a discussion with CNN anchor Fredericka Whitfield and Democratic strategist Maria Cardona, Campos-Duffy was asked what she believes will be on newly appointed Speaker of the House Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)’s agenda.

Campos-Duffy replied that Ryan intends to “decentralize” the Speaker’s role in crafting House policy and give more power to the individual Republican members.

Ryan, she said, is “a great communicator” who will help the general public understand more of the complicated goings-on within the House of Representatives.

Cardona countered that Ryan was actually very muddled in his responses to recent interview questions, particularly as to whether he would consider shutting down the U.S. government in order to defund Planned Parenthood. She went on to say that Ryan is showing signs of “not listening” to the the far-right Freedom Caucus wing of the House.

Attacking Planned Parenthood, Cardona continued, is a terrible idea on the GOP’s part, calling it “a wildly unpopular idea.”

“Wrong,” said Campos-Duffy. “(Paul Ryan) was very clear even before he saw these horrific videos that somehow Maria seems okay defending — the sale of body parts, late terms…”

“You mean the edited videos?” Cardona asked, referring to the fact that the videos in question were heavily and misleadingly edited.

“They are not edited,” Campos-Duffy insisted, “and you can go online and see them.”

“You mean those videos that aren’t actually from Planned Parenthood?” said Cardona.

“The unedited versions are online and they are just as gruesome,” the former reality TV star turned anti-abortion activist said.
