This is interesting:
The latest Rasmussen Reports poll confirms a majority of Americans want a ban on abortion funding in any health care bill Congress may approve. When the House and Senate return from their Christmas break they will have to merge two different bills when it comes to forcing taxpayers to fund abortions.
Released today, the new Rasmussen survey indicates 53 percent of Americans favor a ban on abortion coverage in any health insurance plan that receives federal subsidies.
The poll finds just 40 percent of respondents are opposed to such a ban in the proposed health care legislation now before Congress.
Americans have long been opposed to the idea of paying for abortions via tax dollars. Coupled with an unwillingness to ban the practice has been an equal unwillingness to pay for it. Its a matter of not just the morality of abortion, but the very American expectation that everyone will carry their own weight.
Why, then, are the Democrats so determined to put abortion funding in to ObamaCare? Two reasons:
1. The feminist left insists upon it.
2. Abortion groups will profit off it and then turn around and make fat donations to the Democrat party.
So, because of the wishes of a tiny, hate-filled and out-of-touch minority coupled with the Democrats’ desire for ever more and more campaign funds, we’ve got various provisions in ObamaCare which will, in the by and by, ensure that all of us pay for abortions, should this become law. There is, of course, an electoral danger here – but for people like Senator Ben “Buy Me” Nelson (D-NE), the thinking is that by election day everyone will have forgotten about it and, meanwhile, the increased campaign cash will allow for more complete obfuscation of the record/smear of GOP opponent.
I think, though, that our Democrats have miscalculated. They balance everything very well in their political scales but what they haven’t taken in to consideration is that even pro-choice people are not pleased that people like Nelson were bribed to pass ObamaCare. They seem unaware of just how angry everyone is.
I think that November will be quite a revealing experience for them.
