Stupak's in a bit of a weird situation because he consistently claims his amendment does practically nothing at all, which raises the question of then why pass it?

I'm gobstupped!

Thems some clumsy tapdancing

Ever see a fool tap dance with his shoe laces tied? like Larry Craig trying to dance his way out of his ticket for toe tapping, hmmm did'nt he kinda stumble over his own stupididty?

Hey for real I want to see him (Stupak)do Michael Jacksons MOON WALK with his shoe laces tied.

What an effing d-bag. Unfortunately, he gets to continue promoting his BS when Chris Matthews allows him to spew the lies over and over again.

This is a good piece that explains why the amendment is so unbelievably wrong.

I especially like this: "3. It allows for a useless abortion “rider”: Stupak and his allies claim his Amendment doesn’t ban abortion from the Exchange because it allows plans to offer and women to purchase extra, stand-alone insurance known as a rider to cover abortion services. Hopefully the irony of this is immediately apparent: Stupak wants women to plan for a completely unexpected event."

If this is actually included in the final legislation, the Stupid-Piss amendment will become the 'Sue Them Into The Stone Age' fundraising vehicle for every Pro-Birth operation from the Vatican to Operation Rescue. Every provider and every recipient of any abortion will have to prove in some court somewhere that the money not only wasn't federal money, but wasn't made available because other financial supports from the federal government freed up the money.

If the twenty dollars a month a poor woman spends on supplemental abortion insurance is freed up because her main health insurtance is discounted by the federal government, well, there.
"You see, Your Honor. That money is available because of federal money that went to her, therefore, it violates the Stupid Amendment. Stone her."

Don't believe it? Aren't you paying attention?
