I do not understand what Bart Stupak and his friends are thinking.. [View All]

The Hyde rule has been in place since the mid 80s.. the senate health care bill does nothing to change that.. Sooooo why the big fuss Bart?? He must know that:

1) To add his idea they would have to change the senate bill.. which would then have ro go back to the senate for a new vote abd would than be stopped as the democrats could not get it past a cloture vote in the senate..

2) His idea can NOT be added to the companion bill that will pass under reconciliation rules.. as an abortion change is NOT a financial charge so can not be added...

3) IF all agreed to have his idea as a separate bill it would NEVER pass the house..

the only conclusion is he wants health care to fail, but use the abortion talk as a cover for his action causing it to fail and there fore can say.. What!?!? Blame me!?!?! No No.. my opposition was about abortion.. if they JUST added my idea all would have passed..
