Democrats opposed to the MURDER of unborn babies in the healthcare bill
Friday the 24th, I wrote about a letter sent by 19 Democrats who opposed any provision within the healthcare bill allowing the MURDER of unborn babies. Tonight, I’m posting that letter put into my format and including more information about the Representatives who signed it. Some of the Representatives also voted against the passed “Cap and Trade” bill. The letter:
“June 25, 2009
Dear Honorable Pelosi:
As the debate on health care reform continues and legislation is produced, it is imperative that the issue of abortion not be overlooked. Plans to mandate coverage for abortions, either directly or indirectly is unacceptable.
We believe in a culture that supports and respects the right to life and is dedicated to the protection and preservation of families. Therefore, we cannot support any health care reform proposal unless it explicitly excludes abortion from the scope of any government-defined or subsidized health insurance plan.
We believe that a government-defined or subsidized health insurance plan, should not be used to fund abortion.
Furthermore, we want to ensure that the Health Benefits Advisory Committee cannot recommend abortion services be included under covered benefits or as part of a benefits package. Without explicit exclusion, abortion could be included in a government subsidized health care plan under general health care. The health care reform package produced by Congress will be landmark, and with legislation as important as this, abortion must be addressed clearly in the bill text.
Furthermore, funding restrictions save lives by reducing the number of abortions. The Guttmacher Policy Review, a leading pro-choice research organization noted ‘that about one third of women who would have had an abortion if support were available carried their pregnancies to term when the abortion fund was unavailable.’
Thank you for taking the time to consider our request. By ensuring that abortions are not funded through our health care reform package, we will take this controversial issue off the table so that Congress can focus on crafting a broadly-supported health care reform bill.
Respectfully Yours,

At the end of my original post on July 18th, I wrote: “I do NOT advocate revolution. However, I personally will NOT participate in a “healthcare system” that MURDERS unborn children in violation of my religious and moral beliefs and I WILL NOT pay a fine for NOT participating in said immoral system. Be prepared to send people with moral convictions to jail! Ah, but we will lose our right to vote!
Terrorists don’t have to attack us to destroy us as a nation. It seems that libertine Democrats are determined to destroy us from within as they plunge us deeper and deeper into the abyss of moral depravity.”
