Report : Stupak working with GOP to kill ObamaCare after Nelson’s sellout
Hot Air ^ | December 18, 2009 | ALLAHPUNDIT

Posted on 12/19/2009 12:04:44 PM PST by RobinMasters

So strange have the bedfellows become that this story is breaking almost at the same time that this one is. Pro-life and pro-choice, united at last!

Question: Will the nutroots regard Stupak as a traitor for working with the evil GOP or an unwitting hero in trying to block a bill they regard as a sellout to corporate America?

An aide to Rep. Bart Stupak (D. Mich.) coordinated opposition to a Senate compromise on the place of abortion in health care legislation this morning with the Republican Senate leadership, the Conference Catholic Bishops, and other anti-abortion groups, according to a chain of frantic emails obtained this morning by POLITICO.

Stupac is in the House. It wont matter what he does.

Simple majority rules in the House. The Rats still win.

It’s funny you should say that “it’s in God’s hands now”, my only strategy is praying for a massive snow storm the day/night that this vote is to take place. (it’s the best I can do right now) :(

Sigh. Does ANYONE get tired of the "Lucy and the football" trick with the Dems? Please repeat after me:

"There are NO 'moderate/pro-life Democrats.'"

"There are NO 'moderate/pro-life Democrats.'"

"There are NO 'moderate/pro-life Democrats.'"

The Democrats are proving even more determined in their suicide effort.

I maintain they are NOT on a suicide mission but have been promised "help" from ACORN & SEIU in the vote counting in 2010 & 2012. By then, all will be locked-in and nothing, short of full revolution, will change the communists in power.

Ask Corzine in NJ and Deeds in VA how much help ACORN and SEIU provided them. Those states are harbingers of the tsunami to come.

you post “I respect the Founding Fathers more than ever. I wish they were here to guide us. We the people must do something, but what? Any ideas? I can’t just sit here and accept my fate.’

Get behind people like Lt.Col. Allen West - send him support even though he’s not in your area - we need him in DC

I hope you’re right but rest assured ACORN/SEIU efforts will be even more massive than VA/NJ - the communists have too much to lose.

The dim’s, one by one, getting in line for the big hand out, they would do it all together but they think the American public might catch on.

How clever are THEY?

Their efforts may be massive, but, as Mark Levin said: “there are more of us than there are of them.” We must NOT lose heart, even though this leaves a total sinking feeling in the pits of our stomachs. We feel so helpless and yes, we must stay in prayer for this nation. I also believe there will be lawsuits filed on the constitutionality of this bill. However, we don’t even know what’s in the bill. I suspect, however, that it’s evil.

If this passes, they will applaud themselves, hop their flights back to their home states and enjoy a high-on-the-hog Christmas, while main-stream America suffers.

My only consolation at this point is that they WILL reap what they’ve sown. They seem to think that because it’s Christmas time, we aren’t paying attention and their lives will go on as before. They are in for a rude awakening! May they become unemployed in the future and have to be covered under this evil monster they are trying to heap upon us. And, possibly, their families and friends will also suffer at their hands, just as we’re going to suffer.

We can post on blogs, rant and rave all we want, but, it is going to take some serious prayer and bombarding heaven to turn this around. We need to hit our knees rather than our keyboards.

I agree, God can send a vision to anyone of these fools. God can also burn the Capitol building the ground if He sees fit (to those watching, I am 1200 miles away and do not have the skill set to burn a large building but God does).

I too have prayed very hard that God brings us a miracle. This is the season for them since he gave us his son at this time of year. God may just pull us out of this one yet. Please pray hard for a Christmas miracle.

I posted this on another thread but still no answer. Sen DeMint promised to have the bill read. Since there is no real bill, how will that work? Does anyone know? Also the manager’s amendment would qualify to be read to the full Senate under the rules as I understand them. Imput anyone?

Well SOMETHING has to be submitted to be voted on, Whatever that is, they could force it to be read.

From my email from RightMarch.com:

“WE CAN STILL DEFEAT THIS BILL. The bill pushed by Obama, and passed by leftist Democrats in the House, is NOT getting the full support of every Democrat in the U.S. Senate; and without all 60 of those votes, they will NOT be able to pass the NEXT cloture vote coming up soon...

Which means that we can STILL defeat it there — IF we can overwhelm every Senator with our demands to STOP it!”

Win or lose, let’s harass the heck out of them.

Does this mean I have to wear a button that says, “I’m with Stupak”?
