IF STUPAK IS IN BECAUSE THERE WILL BE NO PUBLIC FUNDING OF ABORTION, DOESN’T THAT MEAN THAT 50 OR SO PRO ABORTS WALK????
Of course not. Obama will tear up the agreement after the November election. Everyone is happy.
In THEORY, yes.
In REALITY?
Who the hell knows?
I doubt this would have happened without the agreement of the 40 proborts.
Slaughter is fraudulently libeling the AMERICAN PEOPLE by repeating unsubstantiated behavior and language. The DEMS are at war with AMERICAN Citiezens.
No. Nothing has changed with this Executive Order, and the Hyde Amendment isn't worth much with respect to HR 3590. This is why...
HR 3590 will give to individual citizens subsidies to "help" them pay for private insurance. Under the EO and HR 3590, those "private" insurance policies can cover elective abortion. The Hyde Amendment isn't applicable here because Hyde never dreamed there would come a day when the federal government was paying for private insurance for the "poor".
The language of the Executive Order (that has been released), explicitly states that the EO is not to be viewed as a prohibition on these publicly subsidized, but privately managed health insurance policies.
What's even more disturbing, there WILL be Federal subsidies to some of these state-run plans that do cover abortions. Again, the EO contains language that explicitly allows these federal subsidies to continue.
There is no doubt, federal money will be used to pay for elective abortions. It's that simple.
“IF STUPAK IS IN BECAUSE THERE WILL BE NO PUBLIC FUNDING OF ABORTION, DOESN’T THAT MEAN THAT 50 OR SO PRO ABORTS WALK????”
Of course not, because they know the EO is a farce. They have nothing to fear. Stupak knows this too, which is what makes him even more despicable.
Of course not. The other 50 or so know that there will be federal funding of abortion. They also know that there will be private citizen funding of abortion at the point of a gun because they know that the President will mandate that private insurers cover abortion at the same time that he mandates private citizens pay insurance premiums (which will pay for those abortions). Face it, Stupak has completely sold out. He now joins a long list of Democrats who claim to be pro-life, but vote otherwise.
Stupak caved.
