Dems, Pushing ZombieCare** Turn Away From "Demon Pass"
Man, I wish I had the kind of time that some people have to follow this debacle hour by hour but as it is all I can do is check in from time to time.
"As of now, the Donks have run away from the Slaughter rule (or the "Deem and Pass" option) because of the clear backlash this could create for them in November. But the Wicked Witch of the West is still putting her caucus to the thumbscrews for an up or down vote on the bill that will.not.die**!
At this point it looks as though Rep. Bart Stupak and a few of the other pro-life Dems (isn't that an oxymoron?) are all that stand between her and the biggest legislative disaster of our lifetime.
Courage, Bart.
We'll know in 24 hrs if he has the grapes to stand up to San Fran Nan.
UPDATE 3/21/10 - 4:20pm
Douche-pak caves.
Should have expected it.

Our parish priest called scandalous a certain leading politican, who proclaimed herself an ardent lifelong Catholic and then declared the Church's abortion teaching as 'ambigious'. He also noted the irony of said politican to pray to St. Joseph for the passage of this bill.

A small point, perhaps.
