I just got off the telephone after calling Bart Stupak's office to show my support for him. We used to live in his district 20 years ago, and he is the only democrat I have ever voted for. Bart is a good guy and he is courageous to stand up for life. PLEASE call his office and show your thanks for his stand. You know he is getting unbearable pressure from the left (probably waterboarding him ~ ha!) to cave, let him know what he is doing is noble and how much you appreciate it. Mnay politicians don't care what people think of them, but I promise you that Bart Stupak is a good man...and does!
All that's germane in this discussion are his pro-life bona fides. He has voted pro-life in the past; we're hoping he's as good as his word this time.
The FReepers who are shocked, shocked to discover he's actually voted with Democrats on other issues should remember that he's, well, a Democrat.
We’ll see, my bet is that he is a useless hypocrite.
