To be reversed at a later date. And, he knows it.

Can’t do it, if the Senate bill is not passed word for word, it has to go back to the Senate. It cannot go to the President unless NO CHANGES ARE MADE.

This is likely to cause dissent among the Dems:

There is no confirmation of this anywhere.

Why the heck would Stupak agree for a vote AFTER the Senate bill? Pelosi could just get the Senate bill passed, then not allow a vote on the Stupak provision. The pro-lifers would be played.

They gain the Stupak 12 but lose 40 pro abortion votes if I understand this correctly.

How will this affect the count ?

Will the so-called pro-choice people now switch to “no” votes ?

All getting a bit confusing, pretty pitiful when the party with a clear majority has to resort to tricks and doublespeak to get something passed by its own members.

Tell Stupak the GOP will vote present on his sidecar. There will never be 216 Dem votes to pass it. Let Stupak make his decision based on that.

Am I being a little too optimistic in hoping that I hear the sounds of a little 'rat'ty cat-fight starting up?

His amendment will lose, then I guess he votes for healthcare anyway or the other dems will probably pass it anyway.

Glad he opposes federal funding of abortion, but please remember he is another left wing fool who otherwise totally supports the health care disaster.

So everything Stupek just said on Greta live was a lie...

Somehow I don’t think this guy Stupek is STUPID. He is prolife all the way and isn’t going to be threatened, bribed, or coerced in any manner.

You are absolutely right gidget7. A constitutional case relating to the enrollment of two bills was decided in 1995, I believe.

The writer of that opinion? John Paul Stevens
