Pro-Life Groups Sound Alarm On Stupak Sellouts
Groups Launch Multimillion-Dollar Offensive Against “Pro-Life” Dems Who Voted for Healthcare Takeover
President Obama: Elections Have Consequences:
“And if we can't (resolve something), then I think we've got to go ahead and make some decisions, and then that's what elections are for. We have honest disagreements about – about the vision for the country and we'll go ahead and test those out over the next several months till November. Alright?” – President Obama (ABC News, 02/25/10)
RED ALERT: Pro-Life Groups Launch Multimillion-Dollar Offensive Against Former Pro-Life Dems:
“Anti-abortion groups are poised to launch a multimillion-dollar offensive against a collection of former allies — House Democrats who also oppose abortion — in an effort to discredit their credibility with anti-abortion voters and oust them from office…Four separate campaigns are in the works, aimed at anti-abortion House Democrats who voted for the health care bill and designed around the notion that those Democrats signed on to legislation that lacked restrictions ensuring that federal funds would not be spent to provide coverage for abortions. Some of the targeted members — largely, though not exclusively, vulnerable and junior Democrats — voted for the bill after Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) cut a deal with the White House that President Barack Obama would sign an executive order ensuring that the bill would not provide such funding.” (Alex Isenstadt, “Abortion foes wage war on old allies,” Politico, 4/22/2010)
