Yesterday, 65 of Pelosi's Democrats turned their backs on Women by allowing strict abortion clauses to be written into the Pelosi bill ... I will never be a Democrat.

And this video below speaks to the reason why I will never be a Republican;

I was watching that at the time. Actually opened a thread here about what was happening. It was unbelievably disgusting yet, somehow, no longer surprising.

Actually I dont see your argument against "Republicans"..

Republicans are asking for more time for both parties to speak while they are told they can not speak.

You do understand that all of those objections are a part of the process. Do you pretend Democrats dont follow the same "Objections" during Republicans turn to speak?

A Democrat from my home state voted no.

I am very proud of Colin Peterson (D-MN )

I'll hold Republicans about as accountable as Democrats.

I expect each to uphold and respect, not only the rights of women, but to uphold and respect each other as well.

The disrespect that our Congress shows to it's own members, is only but a small glimpse of the disrespect they've been showing to the American public lately.

abortions should never be government (taxpayer) funded

I'm fine with my taxpayer money funding a persons heart condition....but it should never be used to fund the results of some womans CHOICE to spread her legs

The video defines the current republican mindset. They object and oppose everything, whatever it might be. Very childish.

People should fund their own damned abortions. Why should I pay for someone else's mistake or lack of responsibility?

BTW, this ammendment means nothing. It was just Pelosi's way of getting the blue dogs on board with the vote. The ammendment will be stripped out of the bill during conference.
