Driehaus confirms: Eight or nine pro-lifers are having a press conference at 4, with Stupak.
Of course we will go to the polls...no doubt..and some Dems will lose.
But the legislation will remain.
It’s a cave.
defeatstupak.com will soon appeat on the web.
GIVE GENEROUSLY!
According to CSPAN, the trade-off was that he gets a colloquoy on the House record and he gets a promise of an executive order that excepts federal funding for abortions.
Stupak, Dems reach abortion deal; 'eight or nine' will vote yes
By Jared Allen - 03/21/10 03:33 PM ET
Democrats have reached a deal on an executive order on abortion that could hand them a victory on healthare.
"Eight or nine" Democrats, including Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), will announce the deal at a 4 p.m. press conference, according to an anti-abortion Democrat.
"We've changed [our votes]," said Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-Ohio).
Driehaus said he's seen the executive order and can now vote for the healthcare bill. He said Stupak has signed off, as well.
Driehaus made his remarks just a few moments ago in the Speaker's Lobby. He said the group of "eight or nine" Democrats -- including Stupak -- who had been withholding their votes plans to announce the deal at 4 p.m. in the House Radio/TV gallery.
I predict Stupak (et al.) will cave under the bogus EO promised by Obama.
We got pimped big time. The road to serfdom is before us as our liberties and freedoms are hastily stripped by the tyranny of Obama & Co.
May the blood of the unborn stain Supak’s and his fellow stooges hands for all eternity when he betrays his Creator and our Constitution.
Woe to those who vote to kill innocent babies.
“The Dems have shot themselves in the foot.”
Unfortunately the bullet passed right on through and hit us square in the chest.
I’ve read about tyranny. Never seen it up close before. Sickening.
What would you like FOX news to do?
politico says he’s folded.
Yep. I’m watching Cspan. The dems controlled the ‘debate’...if you can call it a debate.
He would not hold a press conference as long as a deal was in the works, which would be the case if he was still a “NO”. He has caved.
“If so, tomorrow I empty out my meager 401K.”
Yup.
The fight moves back to the Senate and to the States where each state needs to opt out of this.
Time to take out every Dem we can on November 2nd for betraying the wishes of the American people.
Figured Stupak would cave no matter what the Catholic Bishops are saying.
What it is a sin on their souls!!
No. The Dems have shot themselves in the head. AND, if they have not done so just yet... then WE will make sure of it.
That would be a foolish thing to do.
