Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

Dear Steve,

All of your letters and calls paid off!

Tonight the U.S. House of Representatives approved the Stupak-Pitts Amendment to H.R. 3962, by a vote of 240 to 194, with 64 Democratic members voting in favor of the amendment to ban federal funding of abortion in the health care bill.

This is a great victory for the pro-life movement and for all SBA List members who so diligently contacted their Representatives leading up to the vote. With the adoption of the Stupak-Pitts Amendment, the House of Representatives made a principled and sound decision to continue our nation’s longstanding policy of protecting taxpayers’ conscience in the area of abortion funding.

In the coming weeks, we will remain vigilant and shift our efforts to the Senate to ensure that these same pro-life protections are included in the Senate bill. We fully expect that pro-abortion leaders will still try to find ways to sneak abortion funding into health care.

For now though, let’s celebrate this great victory for unborn children and women. Thank you for all of your efforts in defense of Life. Together we can save countless unborn lives.

God bless,

Marjorie Dannenfelser

After which, she (and they) had the ummitigated gall  to ask me for money:

P.S. Tonight we had a great victory for the pro-life movement, but we still have much work to do to keep abortion of health care reform. Please go here if you can give a small gift to support our efforts.

Okay, for those of you who haven’t the foggiest idea where I’m going with this, stick with me.  It’ll become sickeningly clear in moments.

Normally, I would be the first one to cheer for anything prolife-based passing any legislative body – even that of the Imperial Socialist Congress™.  And I do subscribe to a theory I heard many years ago when I was first starting out in the online world – you can get a good handle on a politician’s worldview by how he treats the abortion issue.  While this isn’t true for every politician on every issue, it does encompass a great many of them – find out what they think about life, and you can make a good educated guess as to what they think on other issues.

If you think that makes me a single-issue voter, so be it.  Your problem, not mine.

But what the pro-life movement has done – if it has anywhere near  the influence it claims to have – is to hand over one-sixth of the economy to Jugears McHopenchange and the rest of the Al-Obambi Amer-Islamic Communist regime.

Here’s the thing:  By passing the Stupid Stupak amendment, Republicans – no doubt under at least some pressure from Majorie Dannenfelser and the bimbos at SFA – and 64 supposedly pro-life Demoscum gave enough Imperial Socialist Congresscritters sufficient cover to justify voting for the entire HR3962 package.

The bill’s final House margin:  Five votes (220-215).

The kicker:  Without the Stupak amendment, HR3962 most likely goes down to defeat…and there are some in the know who were of the opinion that had that been the case, socialized medicine would have been dead for the next ten (10) years.

Chew on that for a second.  Ten years  of not having to put up with this socialist bullshit.  And probably longer, given this:  The rathole that is the Al-Obambi excuse-for-government will very likely kill Demoscummic chances for anything remotely resembling power for at least the next generation, as no Demoscum will be able to win the White House for the next five election cycles, assuming Bambi stays on his current destructive course (and there’s nothing right now to suggest he won’t).

Thus, it would have been a very  long time before we had to dick around with the concept of government-run healthcare.  A very  long time.

And the pro-life movement just handed it back to them on a fucking silver platter.

In grabbing hold of the good, we on the pro-life side have sacrificed, probably forever, the great.  We have grabbed the all-day sucker that the Left offered us, without bothering to realize that the damned thing was laced chock-full of strychnine.

So, to Marjorie Dannenfelser and the rest of the bimboids at SFA, I have only this to say:

You fools.  You.  Fucking.  IDIOTS!!!!!

FUCK  each and every last one of you Dithering Dumbassed Dolts™!!!!!  Because you bastards couldn’t see the forest for the fuckin’ trees, 300 million Americans are gonna eventually be stuck with government-run healthcare!  Multiple millions of Americans stand to lose their jobs over this disasterous piece-of-shit proposed law; many may even go to fuckin’ jail  for it if San Fran Nan Piglousi gets her fuckin’ way, AND FOR WHAT?!?!?!?!  So you shitheads could have your little “no federal funding of abortions” lollipop and go home from the dentist thinking you’d actually gotten  something?!?!?!

HOW FUCKING STUPID CAN YOU PEOPLE ACTUALLY BE?!?!?!?!?!

I never thought I would hear myself say this – but for the first time in my life I’m actually sorry to be associated with the pro-life movement.  If it, as a whole, is not smart enough to figure out that we could have had our cake and eaten it too, had we played our cards right – that we could have resisted the poison-pill amendment and killed the abortion bill outright on the House floor, likely for years to come – then the leaders of this so-called “movement” need to get the fuck out of the way and let more intelligent people take their places.

The fact is, we just got suckered by the Demoscum, big time – and pro-life “leaders” should be exceedingly embarrassed and ashamed at this moment.

With “intelligence” like this on the Right, no fucking wonder  we’re in the minority.
