Make your words as BIG and SCREECHING as you want, it doesn’t make your smears true. Again, the healthcare bill Romney signed never mentioned the word abortion.
The MassHealth Payment Advisory Board that Planned Parenthood got a spot on has nothing to do with making policy or determining covered procedures. Zero. The only thing it does is review payment rates and make recommendations. It doesn’t even have any authority over rates. Zip authority over anything.

Certainly, the Democrat-controlled “legislature was counting on a Democrat governor to succeed Romney to put the real regulatory thumb screws in place.” Romney was certainly aware that the next Republican Governor candidate would be very unlikely to win, since one reason he chose not to seek re-election was his own weak standing in the polls. (In any case, his hand-picked Lt. Governor and 2006 Republican Governor candidate, Kerry Healey, was proudly pro-abortion. She would have had no problem with this evolution of RomneyCare
From MassResistance: To our knowledge, the Romney administration made no effort at all to exclude abortion from the benefits. Gov. Romney's universal health care program for Massachusetts includes taxpayer-funded abortions
If YOU knew abortion was coming down the pike via the portal of legislation YOU put in, what part of "NO EFFORT" don't you understand???
Since when is "no effort" vs. the threats upon the pre-born now considered "pro-life" activity???
huh? So how was it then that Romney supported free to low cost abortions?
