Will this mean his block of votes will be NO?
How big a block of votes?
To bad he isn't wired and someone is recording all this stuff.
I am pinning my hopes on those AGs, and the 37 states which have passed or have bills pending to protect their citizens from obamacare. Normally , federal law trumps state, despite the clear language of the 10th . If it were only 5-10 states , I’d say those bills were pointless. But when a clear majority of the states are fighting against obamacare? That changes everything IMO.
Can he file a motion to depose her as speaker?
What are you talking about? She knows how small babies are. That looks like Pelosi’s lunch.
Methinks The Marxist Onada is about to get dished up another Stockholm moment. The idiot keeps hanging his butt out there and getting it shot off. The man is beyond pathetic.
Great paragraph from the Hayride about Stupak and the situation.
Update 3-20, 9:30 AM: Some people have been worried that Stupak may cave; I feel sure that he won’t. For Stupak, there is something larger on the line than Obamacare — the future of pro-life Democrats. If he caves, or if he settles for something that turns out to be a “protest vote,” then the pro-life movement will never trust anyone again who claims to be a pro-life Democrat. What’s more, the Democratic leadership will never regard their convictions with any value. On the other hand, if the Stupak gang holds, we have a watershed moment in American politics. Whether he forces a Pelosi deal, or whether Obamacare goes down in defeat, pro-lifers will have a place of regard and respect in the Democratic Party. That’s why the pro-choice crowd is upset — they know that many people will blame them for the failure of Obamacare to pass, because they essentially insisted on public funding of abortion.

Will Stupak Be Silenced by Executive Order? [Daniel Foster]
There are whispers that the Majority are working on an executive order... 03/20 12:10 PMShare http://corner.nationalreview.com/
I don’t know law either. But it seems as if there should be something that addresses misrepresentation of what one is voting for. When the House voted on the bill and sent it to the Senate, it was under the assumption or belief that the bill would come back to them. Surely they voted with this in mind. This means their decisions were made under false premises. This would be like playing a game involving strategy and having the rules change along the way. In any case, Stupak and the like should not have voted for the bill in the first place and we would have been spared all of this mess.

Stupak and his group this weekend could grab a more modertae Dem party back from the Obama marxist Dem party.
I think if they stick together and vote no then they are golden.
