Stupak trades in pro-life credentials, proves beyond doubt that there is no such thing as a “pro-life Democrat”

Bart Stupid is  has thrown a 30-year “pro-life” record down the health care crapper.  Excerpt from FNC story:

The National Right to Life Committee argued that seven objectionable pro-abortion provisions in the Senate bill are unchanged.

“The executive order promised by President Obama was issued for political effect. It changes nothing. It does not correct any of the serious pro-abortion provisions in the bill. The president cannot amend a bill by issuing an order, and the federal courts will enforce what the law says,” the group said.

Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund President Marjorie Dannenfelser said the group was revoking its “Defender of Life” award to Stupak, which was to be awarded at its Wednesday night gala.

“We were planning to honor Congressman Stupak for his efforts to keep abortion-funding out of health care reform. We will no longer be doing so,” Dannenfelser said. “Let me be clear: any representative, including Rep. Stupak, who votes for this health care bill can no longer call themselves ‘pro-life.’” 

And for what?  For assurances from the Senate and from B.O. that his anti-abortion language will appear at a later time, yet to be determined?

Here’s the thing, though: Stupak intended on making sure ObamaCare would pass, even if his abortion concerns weren’t settled.  Video proof is here, from a town hall last year with Stupunk.  He says he wants abortion funding prohibited, but he won’t stop the bill from passing.  So if he winds up voting “No”, it’s only because Queen Nancy released him to vote that way, since she browbeat enough Dems into submitting and supporting their pyrrhic bill.

There is no such thing as a principled pro-life Democrat.  Stupuke just proved it.  When push comes to shove, these people are Democrats first, and everything else second.
