Bart Stupak ‘accosted’ in airports one year after healthcare reform

One year later, former Congressman Bart Stupak is still feeling the effects of the critical role he played in healthcare reform. In an interview with ‘The Atlantic,’ Stupak said he still gets “accosted” by angry citizens.

Stupak, a pro-life Democrat from Michigan who led early opposition to the Healthcare Reform Bill based on its abortion language, eventually reached a compromise with the White House that garnered pro-life support and led to the bill’s passage.

“Someone will come out and just bitch me out,” said Stupak, who received a death threat the day after Obama signed the bill into law. “It’s not unusual that when I go through an airport…that I will get at least one person cussing me out.”

Stupak stands by his role in the bill’s passage, however. “It was a good bill,” he said, “Proud to have voted for it.”

Hey Stu- pid. Are you a traitor, or just a moron?

What's in your wallet?

[relictele]

If it was such a good bill why did he waffle about for so long?

[“Someone will come out and just bitch me out,” said Stupak.]

Hit them with your purse, Bart.

[oust the louse]

It’s a good bill because you were promised exemption to it by voting for it...just say it Bart Bart bo Bart, Bananna fanna fo Fart....

[frogjerk]

“It was a good bill,” he said, “Proud to have voted for it.”

I wonder why would he continue to get harassed with that attitude?

Bart Stupak's patron saint is Pontius Pilate.

Someone give the idiotic moron a tissue.....preferably, one that has “karma” written on it. =.=

[Lakeshark]

What a moron, he deserves to be hounded for this for the rest of his life, so he’d better get used to it.

[Eldon Tyrell]

It is called a representational Democracy.

He failed to represent the wishes of his district. And whines because they have the temerity to complain.

Modern little Dem b*tch boy.

[dps.inspect]

add worm... Hey, if I see him in an airport, I might break into chanting; “stu-pid-stu-pak; stu-pid-stu-pak; stu-pid-stu-pak...”

[Jeff Chandler]

WHAT???!!! A politician received a death threat? This is NEWS!

[pogo101]

Hit them with your purse, Bart.

That might be dangerous. The purse probably has Stupak's 20 pieces of silver in it.

[quantim]

Hey Bart - go join Granholm out in CA. Get out of my state and stay out, you’re not welcome here.

[pnh102]

Actions have consequences.

“a pro-life Democrat”

He proved this was wrong by his vote.

Bart Stupak's patron saint is Pontius Pilate.

Or Judas.

[Darksheare]

Bart, if it bothers you that much that you have to cry about it, you should have thought of that before you voted for that dog of a bill.
Now you have to live with the consequences.
Enjoy.

It was all part of the act, IMHO the last major part that needed to be tied up in Dec was when he floated and they agreed upon the idea of the Stupak waiver if you will, which was an escape clause for Catholic Hospitals, they couldn't run without it. Worst part of it is, some large ones have already said they will close. I posted then that Catholics ( and by extension all of us ) were getting rolled and it was a done deal and we had been had, and I got some vociferous $h!+ for it, sad part of it was is I was right. So much more little nasty stuff was done between Dec. and Mar. internally in the Bill, again you have to watch both hands with these neo-marxist.

‘Stupak, a pro-life Democrat...’

Thats a lie! It should simply read ‘Stupak, a Democrat...’. Barry gave him the cover necessary to vote and continue this lie. Guess thats not working out so well.

[Wings-n-Wind]

Stupak is....
..... as Stupak does....

Run Forrest.... Run

Stupak, a pro-life Democrat from Michigan

There are no Pro-Life Democrats.

There are just Democrats who have not been faced with the choice of being Pro-life, or voting with Nancy.
