This isn’t a pleasant thing to read after drinking a liter of an almost sweet red wine. A wine the wine-seller convinced us was meant to taste good with chocolate.
The Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) amendment to the House health bill, which would bar federal funding for most abortions, has passed on a vote of 240 – 194. Democrats split 64 – 192 against the amendment, but 176 Republicans voted in favor of it while none opposed it and Jon Shadegg of Arizona voted present.
As if my head wasn’t about to explode already.
Now we can safely say that those without will remain without, because you know damn well Congressmen Stupak that your children, or your Republican friends children, can pay cash for those abortions, or have private insurance cover it, and that will allow them to continue their education, to assure they will take their rightful place in society.
This kind of amendment does nothing but punish those who don’t have the money to pay for their mistakes.
So this is what it has come to.
It’s disgraceful that this sham passed.
By the way, Congress passed that joke of a health care bill. Unfortunately the bill sucks balls. And you know that sucking balls is not something on my A list.
