Stupak was a dupe. Either a willing dupe, or an unwilling and unwitting dupe.
Either way he was duped.
Either he is a fool, or a liar.
This bill does and will provide funds for abortions.
That, you may begin to understand, is why people are upset with Stupak, and those are the “right” reasons, and perfectly credible.
The operative word is elective. I believe Stupak believes we have protection against healthcare providing tax dollars for elective abortions. He well may have been duped. I do not think he thinks he was. I am giving him that. Michigan supports Stupak. They always have. He polls very high. Still does. There is a reason for that..whatever they are. They like him. And believe in him.
