The opposition to the Stupak amendment in Congress and in the
Mainstream Media is now being portrayed as an attempt to preserve the
status quo
of the Hyde Amendment limitations. They conveniently ignore the fact
that most Americans oppose government funded abortions, and that an
explicit, overt prohibition on abortion funding is necessary in any
health care bill to make circumvention of the funding prohibition
punishable by law.
These liberals are playing politics with our
lives. It is time to force them out of the closet. Do they want
abortion funding or not? If not, why are they against putting a ban on
funding in the bill? Americans don't care about the
status quo.
They only want to make sure that tax dollars are not used to pay for
abortions, or to subsidize organizations or health care plans that
provide abortions whether or not the actual payment for abortions comes
out of federal funding.
