Bus Tour Opposing Abortion in Obamacare Raises Ire of So-Called "Pro-Life" Democrats

A bus tour opposing abortion in midwest districts of democratic representatives who supported the pro-abortion Obamacare bill is raising the ire of so-called “pro-life” democrats.
Of course, the Obamacare vote earlier this year showed there were no pro-life democrats.
Life News reported:
The bus tour the Susan B. Anthony List is sponsoring through the Midwest to highlight the way in which some “pro-life” Democrats voted for the pro-abortion health care bill is raising the ire of the House members from Indiana and Ohio. They are responding to the criticism with assertions pro-life groups aren’t pro-life.
The SBA List is today continuing a 23-city bus tour, “Votes Have Consequences,” in the districts of six congressional Democrats who say they are pro-life but voted for a bill that virtually every pro-life group agrees will ultimately result in abortion funding.
Former Colorado Rep. Marilyn Musgrave is leading the tour because she says voters in the districts, some of whom will be casting ballots in key toss-up elections that could decide who controls Congress, need to know the new law represents the “largest expansion of abortion funded by our tax dollars since Roe v. Wade.”
“Perhaps they thought that the executive order would give them some cover,” Musgrave said, referring to the disputed executive order President Barack Obama signed that merely restates the unworkable and ineffective limits on abortion funding in the bill. “Not working.”
Some of the members of Congress targeted in the bus tour have responded to it but Steve Fought, a spokesperson for Rep. Marcy Kaptur of Ohio, went further than others by accusing the SBA List and pro-life groups of not being pro-life and opposing the bill merely because Obama signed it than because it funds abortions.
Here is the bus tour schedule.

Let’s review: Killing babies OK. Voting for bill that will pay for babies to be murdered OK. Making taxpayers fund the deaths of innocent babies, OK.
Protesting baby killing NOT OK.
A great American often says. POWDER IS DRY.

There are NO… PRO-LIFE….DEMOCRATS. They say they are until Nancy, Harry, or Barry needs the vote. The party of death and taxes can lie, but we are on to them and we are ready for them in NOvember.

True Americans canNOT ever, ever vote for any Democrat. They are the domestic enemies referenced in Constitutional oaths of office.

If you are pro-life there is no way you can be a Democrat. If you are pro-choice (really a euphemism for pro-abortion) you can’t be a Christian.
Valerie commented:
I’m pro-choice and I oppose any federal funding for abortion because it is a bad policy choice. We know from experience that any medical procedure that is federally supported become 1) more frequent and 2) more expensive.
If federal funds for abortions are available some people will refrain from using birth control because they know they can get a free abortion.
If no federal funds are available more people will choose to use birth control and those who do not will be better able to afford an abortion if they get into trouble.
And I do not believe it is morally right to force people to pay taxes to support morally reprehensible actions.

The case for anti-abortion is in the constitution.
Life,Liberty and the Persuit of happines. Cannot have a chance at the last two without the first. Thanks Gus, powder is dry.

There is no such thing as a Pro-Life DEMOcrat. Just a bunch of dumb asses saying they are Pro-Life to make themselves feel better, and then voting for politicians who promote abortion worldwide.
