If true, Stupak is not just a SUCKER, he's STUPID.

"The message at his office has been changed...now they are "either in a staff meeting or the office is closed".

There you go. That tells you all you need to know. He caved.

He’s a rat..they all run home in the end.

In the end, they went with the Party. They loved Big Brother.

If this is true, then all the intense pressure has made Stupak stupid. The EO can’t do anything to change the bill.

Obama believes his pen carries the might of a god.

This will give them many more than 216 votes. He’s not pro-life but he knows his district is. He’s a career politician like the rest.

I concur.

The way things have gone, I want to hear Stupak explain it.

If true and an Executive Order is to be used, I would think that in itself would be challenged in court and might kill this bill.

Otherwise, we now have the line item veto (more making up the rules as we go).

If true, Stupid Stupak just agreed to his re-election failure. Michigan is already in a depression.

This “president” can do anything he wants to do. And the “Stupaks” in congress have been threatened with something much more frightening that a lost election.

Bait and switch...anything Obama promises Stupak now can be undone later when it is too late.

Step 1. Soap Box (this failed)

Step 2: Ballot box (2010)

Step 3. Ammo box (if #2 fails)

An executive order won’t kill the bill. It is totally separate from the legislation. The legislation stands on it’s own with or without an executive order or reconcilliation in the senate.

Stupak—a typical leftist. The PRO LIFE stuff comes WAAAAAAY down the line in order of importance. Wait till he finds out he sacrificed his house seat by being SCAMMED by Hussein!!!

I wrote here after seeing Stupak on Greta that he reminded me of a pouffy-coiffed snake oil salesman who would flip....and he did.

Gentlemen, start your abortions!

That is first semester law school stuff. You are right. An EO can’t overrule explicitly passed legislation. This fig leaf is more like a g string. If yhis report is true then stupak should have this legislation hung around his neck (after he is tarred and feathered)!

Larry Sabato said yesterday it would pass the House. Larry is almost always right. Billy Cunningham said on his radio show last Sunday they would somehow manage to find the votes and it would pass. I feared he was right and he is.
