    Rep. Stupak: White House Pressuring Me to Keep Quiet on Abortion Language in Senate Health Bill


    CNSNews.com) - Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) said the White House and the Democratic leadership in the House of Representatives have been pressuring him not to speak out on the "compromise" abortion language in the Senate version of the health care bill.

    “They think I shouldn’t be expressing my views on this bill until they get a chance to try to sell me the language,” Stupak told CNSNews.com in an interview on Tuesday. “Well, I don’t need anyone to sell me the language. I can read it. I’ve seen it. I’ve worked with it. I know what it says. I don’t need to have a conference with the White House. I have the legislation in front of me here.”

    The Michigan Democrat succeeded last month in getting 64 House Democrats to join him in attaching his pro-life amendment to the House version of the health-care bill. The “Stupak amendment,” as the provision is known, would prohibit the federal government from allocating taxpayer money to pay for any part of any health insurance plan that covers abortion except in cases of rape, incest, or when the life of the mother is in danger.

    Obama picked up where Bush left off.

    He's full of shit.

    Still in Iraq. Afghanistan. Warrant-less spying. Rendition. Bailouts. Open Borders. Taxes.

    What's new? Big Government Health Care. Cap-and-Trade. And Trillion dollar deficits.

    Obama is worse than GW.

    Didn't think it was possible.

    Secrecy is a trait shared by many of the world's most oppressive governments. For instance, Russia has long felt that there is information for the elite, and different information for the masses.

    Here's the russian alphabet.
