Worth posting if only because one of the few things the left and right agree on today is that Obama’s executive order is essentially meaningless. Liberals, per dKos, David Corn, and Ezra Klein, think the Senate bill already does what Stupak wants it to do by maintaining the status quo on abortion funding, which means the EO is gratuitous. Pence thinks the Senate bill is a sharp break from the status quo, but since an EO is flimsy to begin with and an EO on this subject from someone as adamantly pro-choice as The One is even flimsier, it’s not worth the paper it’s printed on. Consensus: Stupak achieved nothing. Which is news to no one this afternoon except, I guess, Stupak himself. Or is it?
As I write this, Stupak’s congressional opponent has picked up two thousand fans on Facebook in about two hours. Ten thousand by tomorrow, I’ll bet.
Update: Instantly, the pressure on Obama to roll back the order begins.

So you can bet your back yard that he has a nice cushy federal appointment awaiting him....or his wife.
He should be excommunicated immediately. He signed the death warrant for tens of thousands of the innocents. I hope what he did hits him in bed tonight and he becomes paralyzed with remorse and cold fear and starts screaming.

Baloney. He's a useful tool, well-paid.
30 pieces of silver-—he was never really pro-life because he sold his soul for an executive order that is meaningless.
What a game they all have been playing.
I am seeing the end of this great nation. It is very hard to deal with all of this tonight.
Just wrote on Mr. Benishek’s wall. I will contriubute to his campaign if no one else’s.
He strikes me more as a Pontius Pilate; wiping his hands clean because Ceasar (obama) or the Pharisees (the democrat congress)have given him an “out” by saying the executive order gets him off the hook and salves his conscience by being able to blame someone else when the EO is reversed. He is a cowardly politician, like most politicians, and he will face a judgment far worse than by his constituents or the American people. A spineless Christian who isn’t even a martyr, yet.
Bart Stupak sold out to a Muslim on Sunday to allow the slaughter of babies.
BO is not “pro choice”, what a terrible euphanmism that is. No decent human could accept his position on late term abortions & infants born alive. He’s even worse than Boxer.
There is nothing pro choice about it—he is pro infanticide.
Logic would dictate that one of these factions is being sold a bill of goods and I don't think it's the latter.
Pence my choice for our next president; Christian conservative
A descendant of the Stupidactyl for sure.
Excellent point, he is far more Pilot and once again, his failure to act according to his conscious will mean more innocent children will die.
I’d guess the EO is the inscription.
I don’t know how Mr Stupak will sleep at night.
I guess we can now interchange the name stupak for stupid. Like “don’t act so stupak”, or “what a stupak thing to say”. This could be hugh and series.
No. He is a liar.

Who is his opponent? Can someone publish his name and how to send him a contribution?
“he is pro infanticide”
The Rat party is 1,000,000% committed to it!
Dupe ak is either a fool or a liar.
He should be excommunicated. He can’t claim to be pro-life after this vote.
