I agree, the Democrats are acting completely back-boneless. I figured I'd have to worry about all the "liberal" legislation they would pass. I was wrong.

Edit: Illegal aliens are thought to comprise less than 1% of people who get into the healthcare system, from what I've seen written. If anyone has anything different, speak up.

I thought Obama lifted the ban of federal government money for abortions ? Hell Id love for the feds to pay for my bad choices too.
All this provison says is that if you are on the government insurance program they dont want to pay for your abortion , unless its incest , rape or is going to kill the mother . Sounds good to me.
