Even after the main vote on the Democrats' health bill Sunday night, tempers continued to flare in the House.
Following the vote on the massive health bill, Republicans challenged the Democratic bill's language barring federal funding of abortions, saying it was weak and would effectively allow public funding for abortions.
Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan, who had fought for tough language barring federal subsidies for abortion coverage, denounced the Republican move, saying it was nothing more than an attempt to deny 32 million Americans health care. From the Republican side a voice shouted, "Baby killer!"
It was not immediately clear who had called out the epithet.
Rep. John Campbell (R-Calif.), said it wasn't him.
"I don't think it’s appropriate at all," he told Politico. "The people who know won't give it up," Campbell said. "I'm not casting dispersions on that state" in a reference to lawmakers from Texas.
Republican Rep. Joe Barton of Texas said he heard the scream but wouldn't say who was responsible.
"I can make a guess," Barton told reporters.
Fox News is searching for the source of the remark.

I love that one.
What's that gonna get them? They each get one new 12 x 12 parking lot?
No-
I AM Spartacus.
No, I’m Spartacus! :)
I know now....when I have been “Stupaked”.....
I want to see the Pope come out publicly against these nimrods too!
Make their excommunications a public event. They are hardly Catholics and are ardent liars!
I want them out of my Church and NOW!!!!!
What is next, federally funded post birth termination of fetuses up to 9 months after delivery?
I wouldn’t put it past them.
They are all despicable creatures and will act accordingly. Many, many lives are now in jeopardy over this.

I think we need to encourage conservatives to write Catholic Bishops around the country regarding this issue. If the Pope publically came out to excommunicate the phony pro-child murder Catholics in Congress - that would be huge, and perhaps put the fear of Almighty God in some, leading some to true repentance.
Do you think U.S. Bishops would bring this up with the Pope? What do you think is the best way to bring this about?
We should take a cue from the tea parties and take a stand.
As a Catholic you CANNOT separate your faith and your job. They cannot be allowed to stand there and say that it is OK to vote yes on a pro abortion bill because of the separation of Church and State! You cannot personally leave your beliefs at the curb and enact laws that directly go against them.
I have had enough and it is time for it to stop!
Well, actually House rules do prohibit this, but rarely is any offender punished. If Stupak were black I guess the idiot could have revised and extended his remarks and called him a NBK! sarcasm.
A huge crowd of Tea Party Patriots need to be outside his offices holding signs that read “Baby Killer Bart”. That chant also needs to drown him out at any of his appearances.
Don’t trust a Democrat.

They'll be pushing for more extremism than that.
