Nothing like putting Obama and his Democrats on the spot with this:
Legislation which would permanently prohibit taxpayer funding of abortion across all federal programs is “one of our highest legislative priorities,” the new Speaker of the House has said in his introduction to the legislation.
U.S. House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Reps. Chris Smith (R-N.J.), Dan Lipinski (D-Ill.) and Joe Pitts (R-Penn.) held a press conference on Jan. 20 to discuss the introduction of H.R. 3, the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.”
Speaker Boehner said the new Republican majority is keeping its commitment to taxpayers by “ensuring their tax dollars are never used to fund abortions.”…
Obama has claimed – via that Executive Order with which he purchased Bart Stupak – that he doesn’t want federal funding for abortion. Now he’ll have his chance to stand up and be counted. No more messing around – let’s get everyone on record, prior to 2012, on how they believe on federal funding for abortion. It is a clarifying issue – it allows the public to make an informed decision. Kinda gets around any “personally opposed” nonsense. Do you, or don’t you?
