Democrats demand no restrictions on abortion money

WASHINGTON (March 19, 2015) — Republicans sought a way out of an abortion dispute that has blocked anti-trafficking legislation, but Democrats immediately rejected their proposal and voted for a third straight day to stop the bill from moving forward.

The developments Thursday deepened a Senate stalemate over the once widely popular bill to help the victims of human trafficking. The impasse has also stalled confirmation of President Barack Obama's attorney general nominee.

The bill's main GOP author, Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, unveiled a proposal on the Senate floor that would change the prohibition on abortion spending in a proposed victims' fund. Democrats have complained that the prohibition goes further than current law. Cornyn said his proposal would make the victims' fund subject to the same abortion restrictions that have been included for decades in Congress' annual spending bills.

"If we can't get to 'yes' on a human trafficking bill, then heaven help us," Cornyn said as he described what he hoped would be a compromise that could win support from Democrats.

Within minutes, Democrats rejected his plan. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said there could be no compromise on the trafficking bill short of entirely removing a provision that prevents spending for abortions in most cases.

Satan's best, mightiest, most efficacious, most all-consuming weapon that he will never relinquish:

We must be able to use unwilling peoples’ govt-confiscated money to let others murder their babies.

But don’t shoot black violent cop-attacking thugs or jihad machete wielding (misunderstood) muslims.

And you know the sad thing?

Too many Americans think Satan doesn't exist.

You’re right. And perhaps that ignorance even surpasses abortion as Satan’s greatest weapon.

I think you give to much credit to Satan, Like man can’t think this up on his own.

That's an intriguing concept - that man can concoct evil without Satan. The fallen angels, lead by Satan, lead us into temptation by suggestion, whispering to our fallen natures. Some of us, and some of the time, resist these suggestions through the grace of God.

Just think of the power of the suggestion: You can have power over life and death. You can unleash your libido to the satiety of your senses. You are a free agent.

When will people like Cornyn (I can’t call them Republicans since they are not worthy) realize that you can’t compromise with evil.

People loyal to this regime want to kill the men, rape the women and sell the children into slavery.
