My understanding is that "abortion" is NOT in HR 3200.

Only problem is, that the way it is not in it, means that it is funded, since the way it is written is to delineate what is not covered.

Well, that does make me feel a little bit better about the Cardinal’s participation in this funeral.

Sheesh....Obama may have appeared to listen intently but he is the more pro-abortion President we’ve ever had. Although I’m glad the Cardinal said his piece.

It probably was in the Stimulus Bill along with the death panels people missed.

... and to share with him that the bishops of the Catholic Church are anxious to support a plan for universal health care, ...

Can anyone verify if this statement is true?

Are the bishops of the Roman Catholic Church actually "anxious to support a plan for universal health care" (apparently a plan to be implemented by the Government, since this discussion was directly with Obama)?

Is this the Pope's position?

Let me clarify cmj328, that question was not aimed at you specifically.

Death bill = Obamacare. death for babies. death for Grannie. Your healthcare goes to immigrants, you get “nada”.

Either abortion gets specifically precluded in certain terms or it will be held to be implicitly in.

Pathetic, sentimental rationalizations for sucking up to Power.

People call Sarah a “liar” because “death panels” are not in the bill. By that, they mean that the WORDS “death panels” are not in the bill.

It will be the same with “abortion.” It will be in the penumbras of emanations from parts of the bill.

Note the soft, euphemistic way O’Malley describes Kennedy’s support for abortion: Kennedy did not publically [sic] support the Church’s teaching...

Kennedy was a shrieking, screaming, devious, implacable advocate for killing everybody who couldn’t defend himself: the unborn, the partially-born, the newly-born, the comatose. Kennedy accepted an award from the very hands of abortionist Kenneth Edelin, the “Boston Strangler.” Kennedy slandered Robert Bork for weeks, primarily because Bork posed a danger to Roe v. Wade.

Then there’s O’Malley’s fulsome praise for Kennedy’s leftist, socialist agenda—which, as a bishop of the Catholic Church, O’Malley has NO RIGHT to be publicly supporting. Catholics are at liberty to reject EVERYTHING Kennedy did in his political life. They are NOT required to support the socialistic legislation Kennedy pushed for forty-seven years. A Catholic bishop should promote ONLY those things that Catholics MUST agree with him on.

To me, I see a prince of the Church playing politics with an issue he should simply be fulminating against from the pulpit.

The Kennedy funeral is just another black eye to believing Catholics from our prelates. The message? Money talks. Catholic moral teaching walks.

Dear God, send us worthy and strong shepherds!
