And so, as I hoped it might, the truth is coming to the surface regarding the pro-abortion nature of the “health”care bill. This is deeply concerning and disappointing as it now seems clear  that Ben Nelson’s supposed pro-life stipulations were nothing more than a phony attempt to assuage his pro-life constituents.

The following is taken from John Boehner’s website:

“In short, the Reid bill continues to defy the will of the American people and contradict longstanding federal policy by providing federal subsidies to private health plans that cover elective abortions.  The new language does include a “state opt-out” provision if a state passes a law to prohibit insurance coverage of abortion, but it’s a sham because it does nothing to prevent one state’s tax dollars from paying for elective abortions in other states.”
