San Antonio Changing Rules To Help Planned Parenthood; The Double Standard

The article San Antonio Changing Rules To Help Planned Parenthood on the Empower Texas blog by Gregory Harrison, aims itself very blatantly towards right leaning conservative voters. Blatant in the sense that some of the core beliefs in extreme right political thinking are personified by both the blog post and Gregory Harrison himself. The blog implies that the choice of having an abortion is in itself murder. While that opinion is still a hotly debated issue it still represents a very right leaning way of thinking. Another way it personifies right way thinking is in the idea of crying foul play when they do not get the upper hand.
 Most Republican Texas politicians are made richer by right leaning activists, interest groups, whom in response expect for their calls for less taxes for the rich and easier ways of making the poor stay poor. In spite of this when a left lobbied politician fight adamantly for those who line his pockets just as the right leaning politician would for his/her own backers he claims lobbying to be a sign of dishonesty and malicious intention.
This article is aimed at the uninformed masses who do not realize just how much both parties suffer under their own corruption, and are happier to simply assume that one party must be better simply because it is written by a "good republican." The easiest way to prove this is to actually go onto his article where his most compelling link of evidence is a link to another of his own blog posts where he again very subjectively frames the narrative and even finds a way to frame a city worker's failure to preform his job correctly as a simple cause of "Being on vacation" and "forgetting to read the email" which conveniently happened to outline how any complaints were to be handled from that point on as new policy and how to correctly preform his job.
I disagree with his argument in the sense that I do not consider it unfair that both parties use the same loopholes and backdoor to have their concerns addressed. Unfair for the common Joe perhaps, unfair for the great citizens of Texas but no for both political parties.
