Phil, I could speak of the many " evils " of this Health care bill ( i.e. death panels, which contrary to what you might read is REAL, rationed care, taxes that are too numerous to mention here, etc. ) not to mention a fine ( which is totally AGAINST what the U.S. Constitution says ) for those not purchasing " government mandated health care " but aside from all this, in relationship with the subject at hand, Abortion, there is a 383 page document called the " Manager's bill ". This bill states in section 10503 of this admendment that 7 billion dollars will be earmarked for community health centers ( abortion mills ) which is appropiated DIRECTLY to these centers. I say directly because if these funds were appropiated thru HHS, the Hyde Amendment would prohibit funding for abortion. Now, they can " sidestep " the Hyde amendment by allocating these funds directly to these centers thereby " forcing " you and me to help fund these abortions! In summary though, there is a distinct chance to " fillibuster " this health care bill and it starts tommorrow with the election in Mass. for the seat of the late Edward Kennedy. Simply put if Brown wins ( he is already on the record of opposing this health care bill ) this will give the republicans the vote to fillibuster this bill. Knowing the democrats though, there are other " shannigans " they can pull! Mind you I am neither republican or democrat, I consider myself a evangelical christian ( endangered species? as some may have you believe ) who believes fervently that life" begins at conception " and we must do our part to " stand up and be accounted for " when we see God's laws being " cast aside " in this great country! Thank you for all " God-fearing Americans " who " stand in the gap " just like Nehemiah did against the forces of evil many years ago!
