Stupak, Dems reach abortion deal; 'eight or nine' will vote yes

By Jared Allen - 03/21/10 03:33 PM ET

Democrats have reached a deal on an executive order on abortion that could hand them a victory on healthare.

"Eight or nine" Democrats, including Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), will announce the deal at a 4 p.m. press conference, according to an anti-abortion Democrat.

"We've changed [our votes]," said Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-Ohio).

Driehaus said he's seen the executive order and can now vote for the healthcare bill. He said Stupak has signed off, as well.

Driehaus made his remarks just a few moments ago in the Speaker's Lobby. He said the group of "eight or nine" Democrats -- including Stupak -- who had been withholding their votes plans to announce the deal at 4 p.m. in the House Radio/TV gallery.

Yup,

that`s game,set and match folks.

Pay for it in November !?

LOL So what? They just took over 1/6th of the US economy. The RINOS are NEVER going to repeal it.

It`s over, the Constitutional Republic is DEAD. The USA now is nothing but a Chavez style totalitarian State.

And those who still need to keep up the facade of Christianity will continue to be given the sacraments, but now that this has been done then maybe some of them can drop the disguises.

(Like this wasn't orchestrated political theater anyway.)

Nobody is surprised.

We will now have many months of Obama’s beautification to Sainthood in the media. This is their campaign for 2010.

Look what we did, vote for us.

The MSM is going to push this like Pravda. There will be special assemblies at schools, documentaries and everything else. It will be celebrated like noone has ever seen.

Ticker tape parades are not out of the question.

Dan Benishek is the republican running against him. He looks good at a glance.

I never had faith in Stupak... he was just waiting for his price.

Despite two millenia of economic fluctuation, still thirty pieces of silver.

What’s the over/under in days when Obama double-crosses them?

Last week at our local killing clinic, one girl turned around at the door and shouted, “This is America. I can kill my baby if I want to!”

This scenario was but a prelude to the sickening sell-out of 3-21-10.

I have been saying over and over on these boards. The Democrats will think that this is over. It is not. They have to be given pants filling, boot wetting moments once they start campaigning. They WILL have to show their faces once they start to plead and beg for our votes. Chase them up a tree and then throw rocks at them. Have the look of fear and terror show on their faces when they ask the press what happened. Surround their cars and rock them. A life filled with cold sweating nightmares and awakening to every little creak and knock in their house is what they deserve.

Dems will suffer a slaughter in November, but evidently it doesn’t matter to them.

Why should it? They'll be back in a few years. They always are, and they always come back worse than before.

Just like Social Security in the USSC case, the Feds argue it`s a tax.

Now that we have "free" healthcare, I can take Nazi Pelosi's advice and start working on poems. Got my first one done already.

There once was a "ho" for SF

who appeared to be totally deaf

We the People said "No"

But the ho said "what the heck" and passed the bill anyway.
