Stupak Slams His Own Democratic Party (Jaw-Dropping Accusation about Mindset of Party of Abortion)
National Review ^ | National Review

Posted on 03/13/2010 7:51:20 AM PST by quesney

Can't believe the National Review buried this nugget in the article. Disturbing, to say the least.

-----

Stupak notes that his negotiations with House Democratic leaders in recent days [about the health care plan] have been revealing. “I really believe that the Democratic leadership is simply unwilling to change its stance,” he says. “Their position says that women, especially those without means available, should have their abortions covered.” The arguments they have made to him in recent deliberations, he adds, “are a pretty sad commentary on the state of the Democratic party.”

What are Democratic leaders saying? “If you pass the Stupak amendment, more children will be born, and therefore it will cost us millions more. That’s one of the arguments I’ve been hearing,” Stupak (a pro-Life Democrat opposing the bill) says. “Money is their hang-up. Is this how we now value life in America? If money is the issue — come on, we can find room in the budget. This is life we’re talking about.”

"Basically, human beings are a disposable drain on society. We’ve gone from upholding the dignity and sovereignty of the individual to people being seen as disposable wards of the states. Dude, where’s my country?"

Yes, this is EXACTLY how they see us. We are a meaningless bunch of the unwashed masses, the UNELECTED. This is how SOCIALISTS see the people they claim to be "Helping" and "Standing up for". All they are doing is making people dependent in order to SECURE THEIR OWN POWER. They need a STARK reminder of who is REALLY in control. Hint: It's not them.

Stupak is either:

1. Lying—he’s just putting up a pretense for the benefit of the voters in his congressional district.

2. Stupid—how could he not know abortion is the sacrament of the democrat party/anti-life cult.

After some consideration ... it is a bigger picture, it is a population reduction, on purpose. Making room and possibly a need for the young workers; which have been filled by illegal immigrants ... cause we need them don't you see, to fill the jobs that the 40,000,000 plus aborted babies would be filling otherwise..

The illegal immigrants here are millions now, and the Democrats have the majority of their votes. The whole system is upside down and crazy, They came to America illegally; but ... we need them to obtain drivers licenses, they rarely are insured as required by law. One of them buys a 6 month policy, gets a license, transfers the license, (because they gave the car to their relative), and they also use the same insurance to obtain a drivers license and so on. Then they can use the drivers license for identification purposes, and to VOTE in elections. The Democrats love this.

In America now, the birth rate of new babies being born are at 50% for Latino births. They will soon be the majority of the nation; and Americans will be in the minority.

We are in MAJOR DIRE STRAIGHTS; and reaching critical mass which will change America into a near third world nation. Between welfare programs and misusing social security funds we are all, but bankrupt too.

That is the whole intention. Sad to say. Open eyes can see the plan developing at breakneck speed. Listen to Obama’s coming legislation's, on energy, green programs, a Immigration amnesty of some sort, increased taxes. Intentions to create $7.00 gasoline, to curtail need for polluting cars; erosion of private property rights, denying know oil reserves to be drilled, denying water rights to California farmers for their crops, our major food producers, look at the jobless, look at teaching to the test in our schools. Children are graduating; however, many do not have a sufficient education to know history of our nation, how our government works, How America was settled and why. Who were Our founding fathers, the United States Constitution, the persecution of Christians is gathering speed, leaning in the direction of using U.N.International law, in America. Obama has in training a young group for a National Security Force, WHY? And much more. Look how this health care plan is still being forced. Look at he recent $200 billion dollars given to Brazil to drill offshore water for oil reserves, belonging to SOROS, China is to buy the oil produced. America gets nothing out of the deal ... except good will. LOL! Enough already. That is all for now, but the facts are we do not have friends in charge of our government. MO.

Read the history of Russia from the Revolution forward. That is where we are headed. NO joke.

Watch "Doctor Zhivago", the movie ... the backdrop of it is the Russian Revolution and aftermath. We are about to lose our nation to communism, socialism, or Marxism. We must rouse ourselves out of our passive acceptance ... that this is America and nothing bad can happen here.

Father help us in our day, in Jesus name, amen.

Defeat Obamacare call list: List now contains the new MAYBES culled from FR posts.

PLEASE CALL! DC OFFICE LOCAL OFFICE State District

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

With regard to the bill, I initially thought: this isn’t really a battle over healthcare—it’s about socialism vs. freedom.

Now I realize it’s not even about that, it’s about life vs. death.

If money is the issue — come on, we can find room in the budget.

Room in the budget? Stupak may be appalled at the other death cult ghoul's callous view of life but he is still clueless about what it means to be an American. Who does he think fills the coffers to pay for that budget? Why does he think that budget needs to exist? It is the government's budget not the people's. We don't need it. It doesn't benefit us. We certainly don't seem to have any say about it.

Believe me, I seriously felt that I was giving Bundy short shrift by using him as an analogy. Caligula would be closer to the truth. 0baMao isn't the only one who acts like a self-made god.

These self-important blood suckers not only want to put all of the debt they are creating on future generations they want insure that they will be too few and too weak to bear the burden. They are writing the destruction of this nation in blood.

This is correct, they will attempt to preserve a warped perverted Socialist Utopia where the middle class is eliminated and humiliated and starved while the elites dine on Kobe Beef and the rare lobster that they deem to be worthy of their consumption.

This is despicable.

Describes the EXACT justification for the creation of death panels - no matter what they end up being called, Public Wellness Adjudicators or whatever - death panels is what they will be.

"Don't they know condoms are cheap?"

One of my kids was the result of a condom - when I felt I had had enough i had my tubes tied. My youngest had hers done two years ago after surgery for cervical cancer, but she had already had three and figured that was enough....last December my oldest daughter also had hers done after her second son was born (and after a second problem pregancy).

There's also the Pill, the Patch and shots.

Why is it that murdering our unborn children is the only method of "birth control" that liberals deem acceptable?

You don’t have to be a local constituent to use this toll-free number. Everyone knows this is a national issue: the NO votes will be blessed by people across the country, and the YES votes will face --- we can guarantee this --- personal shame and lasting political ruin.

The reality is that government theft is the norm and at least birth control pills are cheaper and don’t involve killing a human being.

The reality is that too many people can’t/won’t abstain no matter the consequence. And too many of them think that a free abortion is of no consequence.

I don’t like it but that’s the reality.
