OMG - what a complete and utter sham that is! Somewhat upthread said that Stupak was nothing but a socialist looking for a fig leaf - so he could vote yes on this travesty of a bill.

Whoever you were - this just proves you were RIGHT!

P.S. and what about the typos?

UPDATE: The typos were in the text as I received it. A reader, appropriately, snarks:

"Under this Act, the Accommodation of Conscious is recognized." this means that if you're conscious, it doesn't apply to you?

aybe the white house doesn't know how to spell "conscience" because it is unfamiliar with the notion.

I was just telling hubby that we need to take some money we have invested out and put it under a mattress if we have to. I refuse to pay additional capital gains taxes to fund this atrocity. NO WAY, NO HOW.

And STUPIDPACK got lots of camera time on FOX with Greta. Most likely because he has nice hair.

STUPIDPACK is not really pro-life if he will trust BO to change the abortion language in the bill. Now STUPIDPACK is going to trust Obama, the one who wants partial birth abortions to be legal and paid for by our tax dollars?

These Rats will pay for the trouble, angst and division they have caused to Americans. Doing their dirty deeds both on the day of Christmas Eve and now on a Sunday in Lent. They will reap the whirlwinds.

Most Americas who are even aware that this is going on think, “Never happen”, and move on to the rest of their lives... they will be very surprised... when the IRS begins the monthly check up and withdraws their funds for the required health care. You see this a lot in local issues -— some one deals with some bill's onerous provisions but only a few bother to do anything. Then when the bill passes intact, the sleepers scream bloody murder - too late... and then go back to sleep.

Yes, you’re right.

It’s a ruse for Stupid Stupak who’s been dying to vote for the monstrosity.

The Marxist-in-Chief will happily rescind the EO.

That’s why we arent hearing pro-abortion democrats scream about it. They know it doesn’t fly. It’s worthless!

I totally agree - watching bits of the Rules comm mtg, it was clear who knew what the “rules” were and who were “just making them up as they went along” - so amazing that even Waxman seemed embarrassed (but I doubt it!).
This “coup” that most of us are watching is dispicable - maybe the reaction to this will be another “coup” in the opposite direction - I’d vote for it!

Isn’t this beyond tragic?

It just sickens me, onyx. And the thought of having to endure the gloating and crowing of the Dems after they ramrod this thing through literally makes me ill.

Father forgive me, but I really want to see them fall flat on their faces. (I don't have much hope of THAT happening though.)

He doesn’t have to rescind the EO, it will simply have no legal standing and will be overturned as soon as the first leftist organization takes the matter to court.

Unfortuately they have. Maybe 60 milion do the AM talk shows, internet BBs, and tea parties - for example. The other 270 million don’t bother. In short, most of the active conservative/anti-big government momement is talking to itself.

The pols know this and that is what they are counting on. Keep those 270 million dozing. Once this passes, and it will, then real the outrage will come - I think they are coming for too many at once.

Yeah, I too saw that yesterday. ...make up the rules as we go along.... Tyranny is what it is.

I am disappointed that Fox refuses to give that air time.

“Better get your money out of the banks, ‘cause 0Dumbo has given the IRS the power to gain access to all accounts for automatic withdrawl of the funds. The crapBill will force the banks to give up all the accounts. I noticed that this doesn’t get any air time. Wish the repubs would talk about this too.”

I got out of the market last week because, if this bill passes, I bet it takes a big tumble - even more than when Obama raises his ugly head to speak. Every time he opened his pie hole I lost money. LOL

It’s being heavily tweeted that Stupak is a yes.

I absolutely heart Stephen Moore!

And you can bet the Rats aren’t reading that - they’re too busy going to see the ‘The Vagina Monologues’ and asinine stuff like that.

Good campaign promise for 2012. Campaign on repeal and the returning of the years of tax dollars stolen. A nice big check back into the pockets of each taxpayer.

Tom Foley (fmr Speaker of the House) was tossed out in 1994. .

I lived in Washington then and we worked for the first time on the computer, Prodigy then, to defeat him. Sent all kinds of ads, stuff around. . so Go for it!
