According to @DDayen, they could still pass w/o Stupak bloc, if they flip EVERY remaining no-to-yes vote: http://is.gd/aQgwG

Stupak will fold like a cheap suitcase. Liberalism is a more important religion to him than his Catholicism. He'll try to get a face saving vote, but if not he'll fold, vote yes, and talk about the greater good of covering the uninsured. He will have had his 15 minutes and then he'll disappear into the woodwork. What we have now is pure Kabuki.

Bingo! I have thought this all along. It is desperation to hope that a lib will ever do the right thing.

RepMikePence RT @DeanHeller: Word on the Hill is Dems don’t have the votes yet. Its boiling down to public funding for abortion in the #Healthcare bill

Ellsworth decided to vote YES “for the children

That 'for the children' line always gets me. But it's okay for Mr. Ellsworth to vote for the bill that kills babies with federal $. I guess those children don't count.

The House Rules Committee was gaveled into session Saturday morning, the next step in the legislative process that will lead to Sunday’s debate on a landmark health-care bill. At the same time, Democratic leaders and President Obama mounted a final push to persuade 216 lawmakers to back the measure.

The Rules panel is likely to meet for several hours in a cramped room on the third floor of the Capitol. It will decide the terms under which the House will vote on the Senate version of the health legislation as well as a subsequent package of legislative “fixes.” The committee — on which Democrats have a 9-4 roster advantage — is expected to approve a so-called “deem-and-pass” strategy, under which the Senate bill would pass as part of the rule for debate and would not be subject to a separate vote.

CSPAN 2

That is exactly what I am so confused about. Why do things for the children and this whole thing stems on the right to murder them before they have the opportunity to even be born. Pretty soon, there won’t be any children left to do things for.
