I think Stupak has realized he cant trust them to change the abortion language after the fact. He said yesterday he didnt think the House would come close to passing the Senate bill on the promise of later reconciling the abortion language.

On another topic, I still dont understand how the House can pass a bill that originated in the Senate, since this is a revenue bill and revenue bills have to start in the House.

Since when have they paid any attention to the Constitution?

Yes, the pro-abortionists would not allow anti-abortion language in the Bill.

The Reconciliation Bill is simply a smoke screen to take the focus off the real issue, the House vote.

Pelosi said the abortion language couldn’t be fixed in reconciliation.
