Well, that’s it. Stupak and the other fictional pro-life Democrats, using the cover of a worthless Executive Order, are voting for Health-care and federally funded abortion.
I am heartbroken. Heartbroken for the lives of children that will be lost. Heartbroken that my generation was unable to bequeath to our children the liberty we inherited. I am sorry. I am heartbroken and ashamed that I ever believed in Bart Stupak and the others.
May God have mercy on the United States.
Know these things.
There is no such thing as a pro-life Democrat. I don’t ever want to hear such nonsense again. They are the Party of Death, no exceptions.
This fight is not over.

I think there may be a few pro-life Democrats, but their numbers are very, very small–only about 1%. Same goes for Democrat Catholics. The philosophy of the Democratic party is total opposition to the fundamental teachings of the Church. Anyone who believes that the sanctity of life is equal in gravity to poverty or healthcare is NOT a Catholic and is NOT pro-life. Poverty is not a sin; it is not evil. Poor health is not a sin; it is not evil. Murdering innocent babies IS a sin; it is intrinsically evil. The Modern Catholic Church and the modern Catholics in it are sadly confused and mislead. May God have mercy on us all.

So, Pat and Matt, are we going to see a video now with Stupak as Sir William the Bruce getting the snot licked out of him by the guards in their efforts to "rough up" William Wallace? I think it's only fitting…

Thank you CatholicMomof6. You really do get it. Not having health insurance is very simply not a question of sinfulness, and so many modern Catholics are confused and misled.
Socialism is contrary to Catholic teaching, and there is no way to argue that government control or monopoly of the industry wouldn't be exactly that. This would increase the government's share of health care spending over 60%. That is a monopoly, and it is socialism.
Lastly, you can not really be a Democrat or a liberal and be pro life. And the reason is because THE PARTY PLATFORM SUPPORTS ABORTION. It is an organization, and Catholics can not rightly be affiliated with an organization that openly supports death.
They are the party of death and whatever good intentions they may have had, have now been quite thoroughly possessed by evil.

As witnessed by the website http://democratsforlife.com/
Of, wait, their actual site is http://democratsforlife.org/
Not that there is much difference. On a more positive note, we should definitely applaud the handful of democratic holdouts who voted against this bill; ditto for all of the republicans who did so, especially those who did so for the pro-life motive.

As a born again believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, having accepted Him as my Savior and seeking to live the way He taught us to live, let me tell you this. I am a pro-life democrat. Don't say they don't exist.
