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.

“It is known through history that once a country has given itself over to all manner of paganism and sin, it is not long before that country falls into a system of dictatorship, bringing great sorrow, even murder to the masses.” – Jesus, May 26, 1979

I think before long the end-times Beast will be here. Thank God and His Son Christians won’t be here for it. Hussein’s campaign, election, and style of “leadership”—trending more and more to the tyrannical-have already proven how easily it can happen in America.

Now Bart Stupak after months of pounding from Rahm, Obama, and the other pro aborts says we promise to do this. Your going to trust them to keep their word?

The problem is to get this guy voted out you’ll have to support someone who runs against him in the primary and that won’t happen. He’s been promised no opposition from Nancy. The district is so gerrymandered he can’t lose in the general election. By the way we used to refer to gerrymandering as “.......rigging”.

here is a group in the United States and the world, a group that started many years ago, calling itself the Illuminati, coming from the word ‘light bearer’. Naturally, My children, this light that they bear stands for Lucifer, and as such they have gone through the world secretly known as Luciferians. They have brought into your country, the United States, and your neighbor Canada, a group of witchcraft practices. Well have they laid their plan to destroy your children with drugs, using your school systems, your medias of communication, your newspapers, your televisions, your radios: every means of communication has been infiltrated by the member and sub-members of the Illuminati, a conglomeration of individuals and powers and principalities throughout the world, and banking systems. As you well know, My children, money has always been the root of all evil, and many have sold their souls to get to the head.” - Our Lady of the Roses, November 25, 1978

An executive order does not override an act of congress. It is basic separation of powers. If the president wants to override something in legislation, he has to veto. That’s what it’s for.

Stpak and his gang of slimeballs know this.
They were always just looking for cover.

An executive order will not hold, and can be reversed next week.
Or just never signed put into effect in the first place.
Stupak has gotten absolutely NOTHING from 0bama, and he knows it.

The USA is bankrupt both morally and financially. The socialists can pass anything they want, it’s over. Not enough people to pull the cart now...
