U.S. House Rejects Bill to Ban Gender-Based Abortions
Not as bad as you think.
Naw - we love this Country, and we’re takin’ it back in November. Hi Jean ............................................ FRegards
Thanks. I studied Spanish and French but I really wish I knew Italian.
“Since the bill wouldnt have survived Obamas veto it needs to be slow-rolled until 2013 when Obama is replaced by Romney who at least says hes against abortion.”
Nobody should want this law passed; it is designed to stop the murder of female children rather than all children. It is a bad bill.
Republicans have a majority, but do not control 2/3rds of the House. Maybe, though, we can make a good push toward that number in November.
Very good tactic.
Folks, the vote The vote was 246-168 in favor of the Bill. The GOP controlled House did its job. They won by a lot, even had some dems votre for it.
But because of the way it was introduced it required a 2/3rds majority to pass. That’s okay, here’s why.
The GOP wanted to get people on record. They knew even if they had gotten the vote in under normal tracking and won (which they would have) that it would not survive the Senate (which would never bring it up for a vote under Reid) or Obama’s veto in any case.
This way, they got the Nays on record for everyone to see and you can bet the GOP and PACs will use it in November in every race where anyone voting Nay on it is up for election.
“The vote was 246-168, short of the two-thirds majority needed under a fast-track procedure used by the House.”
A majority of the House voted for the ban, but not enough to override an Obama veto. We have to vote him out of the White House for this to pass, perhaps get a filibuster-proof majority in the U.S. Senate.

Ooooh ayayaya, time to fight friend, this is your house, time to fight.
I am praying, that is only thing I can do, but I will fight with you in being in truth with you.
Evil will not win; we already know this, why then allow lucifer to win over us? Tell me brothers and sisters in Our Lord Jesus Christ? Have he not suffered more than anybody of us? Is that how we treat our Lordr? Crucified Him AGAIN?
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaayaaaaayaaaaaaaaaaaa, what happen to you politicians? Do you really love being in Hell?
I am sad, this really hurts me and is deep in my heart.
Merci
Our House Speaker... He's a cry baby... Pelosi has bigger balls. Our leader is a public crybaby... John Boehner. It's freakin' embarrassing.
Wait another 2000 years.
Present-day support for abortion by feminists is itself an about face. Mary Wallestonecraft was vehemently against it, because she believed it would give men a license to be irresponsible with the women that they casually shag. So now it would be a full circle.
Does anyone know if any Republicans voted against this?
> It means hi in Italian.
Actually, it’s Romanian.
In Italian, we say, “Ciao”, (pronounced “chow”), which is used for “hi” and “bye”.
Italians answer the telephone thus: “Pronto!” or, “Allo, allo!”.
This line of thinking takes the focus off of the the mother and her "rights" and balances them against the God given rights of the baby.
Thanks Jeff. Superior explanation.
The vote was 246-168 in favor of the Bill.
The GOP controlled House did its job. They won by a large margin, even had some dems votre for it.
But because of the way it was introduced it required a 2/3rds majority to pass by enough to avoid a veto. But thats okay, and heres why.
The GOP wanted to get people on record. They knew even if they had gotten the vote in under normal tracking and won (which they would have) that it would not survive the Senate (which would never bring it up for a vote under Reid) or Obamas veto in any case.
But this way, by fast tracking it, they got the Dem Nays on record for everyone to see and you can bet the GOP and PACs will use this in November in every race where any Democrat voting Nay on it is up for election.
It’s actually a shrewd and smart move, IMHO, because the vote will come back to haunt the Dems badly.
