When the GOP is attacking the funding of PP branches that don't even perform abortions then yes, they are going to be perceived as acting in a more irrational manner than the Dems. Their attacks on PP's funding have become disconnected from their original purpose, and in a person that could easily be considered "psycho" behavior.

Hmm, how  to reverse the scenario. Let's say gun control became a meaningful issue again, and there was an organization receiving a bit of federal funding - let's call them Private Protection - whose chapters would sometimes acquired retail licenses to sell firearms (among other services such as firearm safety classes - which you'd think someone interetsed in preventing gun deaths would support). An amendment was attached to a random bill in Congress by some Dems preventing any organizationfrom using federal funds to purchase guns for retail sale, so Private Protection was forced to do a bit of restructuring to make sure they complied with the Feinstein Amendment. But that wasn't enough for the anti-gun Dems, so on the state level they started going after Private Protection's funding directly, even in states where no Private Protection chapter actually sold guns.

I think it would be reasonable to classify such behavior by those Dems as crazy, or whatever synonym you cared to use.

I think you missed the point.  He'll have you arguing about gun control.   That is not the topic. 

Of course, this is why you're his target audience.  He can lead you where he wants you to go.

Is this something like the guy who can't walk and chew gum at the same time?

If your contribution is "snarky little playground taunts", don't worry what others post.   Because, quite frankly, I've only seen your "snarky little playground taunts".  Therefore, I think you lack the intelligence to make any legit point. 

I don't want to limit your posting.  I just want you to recognize what you add.

Wow. Basically, you just said, "I know you are but what am I?" And here I thought your shtick was tiresome and unoriginal. Good job.
