Sorry, I dont. But the Stupak Amendment of HR 3962 just passed, which bars federal funds for abortion (w/some exceptions) from the Pelosi Care bill.
BTW, HAL Thanks for trying to hijack my thread...

I know it is going to pass, but I wish it wouldn't. Maybe I am wrong, but I cannot help but feel that this is going to be the final nails in our financial coffin when this thing gets approved into law.

I feel the same way...
Republican alternative bill voted down

After watching this debate for the last 4+ hours, I cannot think this bill will get past this house. I guess we'll all get to see which of our reps are bought and paid for, right now!

They're all bought and paid for. I don't know how to link, but there is a thread on here with title; Report:237 MILLIONAIRES in Congress

Will they just sign some papers already! This is miserable.

HR3962
just passed the House

“When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.”
Quotation attributed to Benjamin Franklin
Amend this quote to say "vote themselves entitlements" and the results are the same.

The cynic and pessimist in me says this bill will pass, if not in its entirety, then in part and grow from there. Just as every other government program has, and become a behemoth bureaucracy. Impossible to dismantle, with us forever.

see the Harlot
clothed in red.

Meh. Didn't watch the CSPAM stuff. Instead I was listening to American Crossroads on the local college radio station. They played some great blues! Blues! Something we can all sing soon. Blues. It's not just a black thing anymore.
