WASHINGTON (SR) - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office said yesterday she would not allow the final language of the House health care bill to be publicly posted for 72 hours prior to the vote, contrary to her statement on September 24 that she would.
An unidentified House member said Pelosi's reason for concealing the final bill from the public wasn't because it still includes unpopular items like "death panels" and coverage for illegal immigrants, but because of its provision for taxpayer funded abortions, and the requirement that every insurance holder pay a monthly premium to fund them.
Despite the inevitable outrage from churches and pro-life individuals who would be among those forced by the government to finance the abortions, Pelosi was determined to include the provision. A source in Pelosi's office said, "We tried to talk her out of it, but Nancy just has a thing for killing babies - I think it's part of her religion or something."
My comments: Let's see if I have this straight: This Godless pinhead works for us, yet she's concealing numerous details of the bill she created for us because she knows beyond a shadow of a doubt we would never stand for it? Really?
As there's probably a law against dipping someone in hot fudge and strapping them to an ant hill (even if they really really deserve it), I guess I'll just have a few margaritas and listen to some music instead.
