Always love to see you posts, Yaelle!

And Obama has repeatedly put forward that falsehood that his ShamWow Healthcare Product wouldn’t cover abortion.

The Senate HELP committee (Health, Education, Labor and Pensions) in July defeated four pro-life amendments intended to stop the government paying for and promoting abortions.

They voted them all downl on 12-11 party-line votes with only Sen. Bob Casey, of Pennsylvania being the lone Democrat joining Republicans to support the abortion limits.

They defeated an amendment from Sen. Mike Enzi of Wyoming to remove the “abortion mandate” from the health care bill and another from Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah to remove the abortion subsidies.

They also rejected an amendment from Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma to protect state laws limiting abortions and abortion funding from being nullified by federal law under the health care bill and a second that would protect the conscience rights of health care workers.

If you parse it out, the Obama operatives admit that (1) there will be approved insurance plans that will cover abortion, and (2) these plans, these packages, will be subsidized by public funding. Therefore, public funds will be covering abortions.

They know how the Senate HELP Committee voted. They also know the meaning of the word “fungible.”

I guess they assume we don’t.

Thank you, Mrs. Don-o!

Every word laughed out of his mouth about what the “stupid Americans” think is in the plan was a lie. He knows dang well what was in the Senate HELP committee. He wants what he wants (abortion for everyone on demand) and he will do any means necessary (LOL) to get it.

I think in the end the pro-abortion pushers want the powerlessness of women. Think about it. Push abortion to its extreme, along the lines of this health care plan, and what do you get?

You get women who wish they could have their babies but are being told by their Medical Care Provider that they cannot get prenatal or birth care, but that an abortion is covered.

I know Obama is a President who hates the American people, but I think he hates the female ones most.
