I must be the dumbest guy on the block. Let me see. The House Bill wouldn’t have passed without the Abortion Amendment. So, Wasserman-Schultz says she is confident it will be stripped out in Conference with the Senate Bill (Which still has a long way to go). So, if it gets stripped out, what makes her think those pro-life Democrats will vote for it then when they wouldn’t vote for it unless it was in there last Saturday? Can anybody explain this to me?

You’re right I don’t get how that works.

rep 1: Don’t count me in unless the pizza comes with pepperoni.
rep 2: OK, here’s our order with pepperoini
rep 1: cool, count me in!

senator: sorry, we’re taking out the pepperoni.

They wanted cover for when they return home. End of story. They knew it would be stripped in conference, and were probably TOLD that on Saturday night by Piglosi and he kneecap busters.

There ain't nobody listening to the American people - Congress takes it orders from the man-child in the WH. Article I and Article II separations have been breached.

They think the longer they go without a 'NO' vote on it, the better their chances.

A 'NO' now kills it. They just want to keep it on the respirator as long as possible.
