UNBELIEVABLE . are the dems this stupid . All that Stupak & his allies want is some kind of accommodation ( I believe ) to finesse the issue .
But NOOO , Nostrilitus Waxman & Co . will not do
it . Bye - Bye , bill(s) .

What are Democratic leaders saying? “If you pass the Stupak amendment, more children will be born, and therefore it will cost us millions more. That’s one of the arguments I’ve been hearing,” Stupak says. “Money is their hang-up. Is this how we now value life in America? If money is the issue — come on, we can find room in the budget. This is life we’re talking about.”

Stupak to NRO Corner.

I have become more and more convinced that abortion is what's really driving the Democratic leadrship on this issue. You'd have to be completely gullible to believe they're intersted in saving costs.

Agreed, it's always about abortion with these monsters. They are the party of death.

How to view this whole health Care situation is this: Power, pure and simple. To combat these Democrat socialists first you have to be clean politically yourself, but think dirty ( currupt ) thoughts. Meaning, what kinds of bribes,threats,intimidations,skeletons in the closet etc etc. aka blackmail are playing out. You need spies pure and simple. You need intelligence --exactly like being at war--which you are. Any other way of looking at this is naive at best. For anyone thinking of voting for the bill who has the slightest bit of hesitancy efforts should be made to approach them and persuade them that voting for the bill will destroy them politically and remind them of Democrat Party promises and the likelihood of their being kept.
Which would be zero.

Democrats=pay for abortion on demand=MORE VOTERS.

If they abort enough of their young, liberals will eventually self-extinguish. Social Darwinism at work.

The Deathocrat Party are allied with Satan himself against Almighty GOD & are actively helping Satan in his quest to win people away from Almighty GOD & join him in Hades. Misery loves company.

Why do we allow people to pass legislation to destroy helpless infants? This is a serious moral issue. This is more than just a difference of opinion. There are serious repercussions for this act. Thank you for the informative post.
