WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A dozen House of Representatives Democrats opposed to abortion are willing to kill President Barack Obama's healthcare reform plan unless it satisfies their demand for language barring the procedure, Representative Bart Stupak said on Thursday. "Yes. We're prepared to take responsibility," Stupak said on ABC's "Good Morning America" when asked if he and his 11 Democratic allies were willing to accept the consequences for bringing down healthcare reform over abortion. "Let's face it. I want to see healthcare. But we're not going to bypass the principles of belief that we feel strongly about," he said.

If he is resistant to effective healthcare for 50% of the population, then actually he is against it completely. His idiot superstitions and bigotries may blind him to the logic of that, but that is what he is. You cannot have effective healthcare for women and exclude abortion. forget self-determination or citizen's rights, abortion is a healthcare issue. So if he is only for proper healthcare for men, then he is not for healthcare reform.
He is a liar, a bigot and a superstitious fool. keep to the Fen Causeway
I'd LOVE to see the bill pass the senate and then have trouble in the house because of these dipshits. it's just the kind of victory the pro-choice crowd needs.
