EXECUTIVE ORDER TO BE USED TO OUTLAW ABORTION FUNDING

If you believe this I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you. It looks like they finally found the lie that everyone can agree to hide behind. If the pro-life Democrats roll over on this it says all I need to know about where their loyalty lies; it's not with the murdered babies.

House Democratic leaders struggling to gain the 216 votes they need to win a healthcare vote earned two more crucial supporters on Sunday.

Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-Ohio) announced she’d support the bill, saying she was convinced it would prevent federal funds from being used for abortion services.

Separately, MSNBC reported that Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) would vote for the bill.

Stupak earlier on Sunday had said he was close to a deal with the White House on an executive order on the abortion issue. The order would specify there would be no public funding for abortions in the healthcare bill.

“We are close to getting something done,” Stupak said in an interview with MSNBC.
