He is exactly right!

It does look like Stupak will get another chance to vote on health care. It’s his choice...if he wants to still be in Congress in 2011.

Too bad. Perhaps he will be invited to speak at Georgetown University. Or Notre Dame. Or some other Catholic University.

They seem to have no problem with pro-abortion politicians.

He held in his hands a power to help protect innocent life. He never meant to do it and he never really cared.

So the House will vote again? I am sure nothing will change. The people in MI are fools if they keep this slime.

What's "Pro-Life" about the Catholics who voted in nearly equal numbers for Obama as they did for McCain?

I was simply pinging people with pro-life ping lists. Most pro-life pings are to threads about those who are decidedly anti-life.

Well Stupak will learn there are consequences to his actions.
