It doesn’t matter if it’s Stupak amendment or executive order, once this passes today, and it will, NARAL etc will sue and the courts will FORCE the government healthcare to include pay for legal “women’s care” (abortion) under the 14th amendment or whatever jurisprudence Kennedy can think up.

Yep. Obama doesn’t even have to rescind the EO. He knows full well the courts will do it for him. If this change in the meaning of the bill actually were acceptable to Pelosi, she’d have it written into law where it couldn’t be so easily invalidated by a court ruling. After all, the Hyde amendment language has survived for decades.

This is nothing more than a charade in which all parties involved can conveniently say: don’t blame us, blame the courts.
