Because blocking a Supreme Court nominee wasn’t enough:
The Republican chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee pumped the breaks on the confirmation of a top health official Tuesday, saying the Obama administration didn't adequately investigate claims that Planned Parenthood sold fetal issue.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) said he would block the confirmation of Mary Wakefield as Health and Human Services deputy secretary until the administration better detailed the scope of its investigation into Planned Parenthood, an HHS grant recipient.
Grassley said in the Congressional Record that after he wrote to HHS about "fetal tissue harvesting practices at Planned Parenthood," the "response to the letters did not fully answer the questions raised and, furthermore, raised additional concerns."
I think it’s time we saw some new polling out of Iowa and see if people think Grassley is truly representing the “Iowa Nice” image in the U.S. Senate.
