Bob Casey Claims No Abortion Funding in Senate Health Care Bill, Draws Rebuke

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- One of the two Democrats in the U.S. Senate to claim a pro-life position on abortion is drawing fire from pro-life advocates today for a comment he made in a recent town hall. Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey told constituents that the Senate version of the government-run health care bill doesn't fund abortions.

One more reason why you should never vote Dem regardless of how socially (or fiscally) conservative they claim to be.

Casey’s so dumb that if his IQ was any lower, we’d have to water him twice a week and make sure he didn’t get rootbound.

The wording is designed so that it doesn’t specifically say it won’t pay for abortions, but also vague enough that it will, in fact, pay for abortions.

The real proof is that, when an Amendment was offered that said specifically that paying for abortions was floated, Democrats shot it down immediately!

Once one has decided to support murder, lying about it is hardly a moral obstacle one has to struggle to overcome.

Casey is so dumb he showed up at a local Community College (which back in my day was openly derided as “high school with ashtrays”) and appeared to be dumber than any of the students

I was listening to an attorney who was being interviewed on EWTN who read this opus. She said that taxpayers will not be funding abortions, but they will be paying for them through their monthly premiums.

So BOZerO lifts the Mexico City abortion funding by US taxpayers and we’re to believe he will leave his Planned Parenthood hacks out of the healthcare equation? Which side of the forked tongue does he speaketh?

Casey is not as dumb as he is patently dishonest. How do these low lifes live with themselves, I wonder.. To be able to look a constituent in the eye and lie your ass off takes a special breed.

In every conservative district where a Democrat has a chance of winning or is the current representative. the Republicans should run an “A vote for X is a vote for Nancy Pelosi” commercial because that’s pretty much the truth.
