If he does that, he'll lose the 40+ Dem Women who will either vote No or walk out. . . .
It was posted on another thread that the Rat babe in charge would be okay with it.
Degette on board with Executive Order?

Thanks. Didn't see that. Geez, that about makes you sick. . one evil overrides another. Anyway, maybe some of the Dem Women will individually rebel.

I think what they are saying is that Obama will promise to sign an executive order prohibiting money to be used for funding abortions after the bill is signed.
Now, I don’t know exactly how they think that will work because the money is directed to be spent as such according to the law he would have just signed and he can’t use an executive order to overturn a law.
Of course, if they can get enough of Stupak’s group to believe it — or pretend to believe it — it won’t matter.
As that is illegal and unconstitutional and wouldn’t hold up under a SCOTUS ruling, we can only hope Stupak isn’t Stupid.

LOL, nice!
Tomorrow’s the day.

I'm not sure that was to be taken literally. It looks like a gay spoof. I can't say I've spent more than a couple of minutes looking at the google or the post as yet.
Lots going on, most importantly, music videos that assuage my soul right now :-)
To: TornadoAlley3
Is that pic for real? Scary if so.
To: yield 2 the right
Rep. Zack Space (D-OH), who voted for the House health care bill last fall, has announced that he will vote no on the Senate bill tomorrow. We’re told that this wasn’t a surprise to Speaker Pelosi but that she didn’t release him to vote no either, as sometimes happens late in the game when the leadership knows it has enough votes and can spare some to protect vulnerable incumbents.

Even if the Stupak bloc has been whittled to a half-dozen, you would still need to get all the outstanding Yes votes (Foster, Kanjorski, Michaud, Ortiz, Pomeroy, Schrader) and two of the remaining former No votes (Baird, L.Davis, Matheson, Nye, Tanner). And if that Stupak bloc is any bigger, it gets harder.
At this point, Mike Arcuri and Stephen Lynch will probably get some phone calls from Obama...And Collin Peterson, too. So we need to keep calling them and tell them kill the bill.

From WashingtonPost on the other thread: "US Conference of Catholic Bishops, National Right to Life and Family Research Council have all come out with statements saying that an Executive Order would not override the statute and, thus, does not solve the problem for pro-life Democrats."
To: Outlaw Woman
Wow......I just read in the sidebar headlines that Cardoza switched his to NO...WOW Just WOW Darn, that isn't so. It says he would vote no IF they adopted the rule of deem and pass which was already abandoned so he is still a yes.
To: StarFan
Yeah...now he’s slamming the tea partiers and saying he’s voting yes on the bill. Another thread...
To: TornadoAlley3
Miracle of miracles needed tomorrow.
To: StarFan
I agree with you. I watched Cardoza’s testimony at the House Rules Cttee hearing today. There is no way he is voting NO.
To: All
I still don't know why all these Dems are giving up their careers to pass this Bill. . If they vote Yes, it's automatic loss in November, or November after that. . so Why?

No, this time the harpies are on board. Diana DeGette is head harpy. Clearly, she knows that the EO will not stand up under a challenge so she has nothing to lose. And if she knows that, then Stupak must know it as well.
