Mia Love won some respect from me, and increased the chances I will vote for her reelection with a comment she gave on her being named to the U.S. House committee investigating Planned Parenthood.
“I believe this committee should only focus on possible illegal activity. It should aim for fairness and transparency and remain nonpolitical," Love is quoted as saying in a Salt Lake Tribune article.
I'm among the many who think the Benghazi investigation is a witch hunt, a chasing down of Obama and Clinton. Love's quote gives me to understand she knows an investigation can become political. Planned Parenthood sits squarely on the opposite side of the political world from Love, so it will be important that she and others on the committee keep their focus on whether Planned Parenthood did something illegal rather than just to go looking for stones to throw at the organization.
