Stupak has stood stong with us. It is the left that are sending him death threats. I would not be surprised if he switched parties before this is all over.Stupak will stab you in the back this weekend by voting for the abortion-laden Obama health-tax bill.
To: tobyhill
Leading a revolt against President Barack Obamas healthcare legislation over abortion has been a living hell for Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.).For Rep. Stupak....
THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated.

The point is he is voting no this time. I wouldn’t call him an idiot.

Stupak is not principled, if you read the article he states that what he would like is if the bill passes without his vote.
Meaning, of course, that he is okay with abortion funding.
He is very sleazy, I will blast him continuously.

>> Obamas healthcare legislation over abortion has been a “living hell” for Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.).
Certainly not as bad as the abortion itself.
Stay strong Stupak. You’re doing the right thing by voting NO.

The house bill didn’t have the abortion portion, that came from the senate if I am not mistaken.
It’s no excuse since the bill is horrible, but since he’s prolife that’s his concern.

Oh, no, he’s not an idiot, he’s a willing puppet. He is very cozy with Waxman and Pelosi, always votes leftist. Did you know he doesn’t believe that Madison and Jefferson were correct in their intent of the constitution? He is filthy. He promotes tyranny.

All the phones are unplugged at our house tired of the obscene calls and threats. She wont watch TV, Stupak said during an hourlong interview with The Hill in his Rayburn office. People saying theyre going to spit on you and all this. Thats just not fun. ...and as an advertised possible "NO" vote Mr. Stupak, members of which party do you think are making these calls?

Oh my gosh, he is a leftist!! For cryin out loud! This abortion stuff, he doesn't believe it. I've been to his town halls and called his office and listened to interviews he thinks his vast tundra of a district wouldn't know about--And, if you read the article, he says himself that he wishes the bill to pass without his vote--THAT MEANS HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ABORTION FUNDING.
He wants the bill, he has said so on many occasions, this is posturing and he makes me sick.
There ain't no way in hell he would ever change parties.

Why are you piling on Stupak? It takes a bit of courage to be against this when your party is going full tilt and is also unhinged.

The way you go against your party is not be suckered by them in the first place.

We wouldn't be looking at this crap had it not been for him in the first place.
If he and the other 12 so-called Anti-Abortion Rats had any courage they would tell Pelosi to F-Off then start caucusing with the GOP. They would never do that considering they vote the other 99% with the Libtards.

Encouraging the NO vote is the thing to do. What else do you want me to say?

Very sorry to hear about the Planned Parenthood funding. I was not aware of that. I just have been impressed that he seems to be a pro-life dem who actually stands up for his beliefs rather than letting himself be bought off like Ben Nelson did.

And McCain shouldn’t have run for POTUS.
It took many f-ups to get where we are today.
