Terry O’Neill, the president of the National Organization of Women, was not happy to hear President Obama’s response when ABC News asked him about an amendment added to the House Democrats’ health care bill Saturday night that further restricts abortion services in both public and private insurance plans.
“He has passed health care for half the population and an anti-abortion bill for the rest of us,” O’Neill said.
She said she understood the president’s frustration in wanting to pass health care reform, but “it is not acceptable for him to achieve that goal by pushing women back into the back alleys to die.” And the anti-abortion amendment added to the health care reform legislation “does just that.”

Maybe there should be another amendment added to the health scare bill:
You want an "elective" abortion, fine, you get ONE on Uncle Sam. But you also get your tubes tied during the procedure.

Another radical lefty group bailing on the Manchurian President.

You want an abortion? Fine, just don't ask me to pay for it because if I have to, I'll also be the one suggesting - screaming - that you keep your legs crossed or actually bother to use some form of contraception, since it becomes MY business if my tax money funds your abortion(s).

Whether you believe in the Bible are not, I cannot help to recall a supposed admonition by Christ who said: "You are neither hot nor cold, and I spit you out". It seems the BOwad is having a "lukewarm" problem with his "hot progs", and they are spitting him out all over the place! "Lukewarm" is for "mediators", not presidents!

He's making Jimmy "Nuthead" Carter look more like an American Hero everyday. I guess he heard the Rev. Wright say too many times, "God dammed America" and has been brain washed into believing it, after all he was his "mentor".

Elective abortions do not constitute a genuine health care issue. If a woman CHOOSES to undergo an ELECTIVE abortion, SHE should pay for it. Not funding elective abortions with federal (tax payer dollars) money does NOT have anything to do with reversing women's "rights."

If you want to have sex, your responsible for everything that happens after, from preagnacy to birth to raising your child tell they on on their own. Your also responsible for your own problems, from STD'd, abortions, adoptions, or what ever else.
Mike we do not have to agree with everyone, but if you don't like the comments that people left, you don't have to respond. You can keep it to yourself, or leave the site, no one is forcing you to stay, or forcing religion down your throat.
Personality it looks like your looking for a fight, or some attention to get people enraged, so I guess Flame on!

No one should be forced to pay for another person's abortion, Mike. Keep your socialist vomit to YOUR self & stop trying to force it on the rest of us.

NOW is really going to be mad when they find out a MAN shot the terrorists at Ft Hood, and not the woman cop as the media so quickly determined. Let's see, the latest on who is starting to realize Obama is an EGO driven POWER hungry politician with no character? Gays are upset with him, elderly are upset with him, radical left hanging NOW women are upset with him. of course taxpayers, veterans, and all businesses. THe only thing dropping faster than his popularity, is his abilities (which were always at the bottom).

Too bad the NOW Prez didn't unload on BHO for supporting this bill that basically robs her granddaughter and sells her granddaughter's generation into bondage & slavery. But I guess that's not as important an issue for her.

I have always believed that a woman has the right to destroy her own child..it is not my place to judge you...however..I will not pay for it. I would rather my taxes go to the Veterans that have sacrificed for our freedoms. Pay for your own abortion.

Abortion is Legal, Pregnancy is avoidable, Abortion is elective surgery! You have the right to have an abortion, but no right to force me to pay for your carelessness.

Good. Another organization who dislikes the policies of this radical. At this point anyone and any group is a plus for the US. He is wrong about so many things, I don't think our country has ever witnessed a more chaotic & corrupt group. He lies to please, then backstabs everyone. He's gone 2012!

The press always portrays the National Organization of Women as an organization representative of all women. It is not. It is nothing more than a leftist organization that preaches not only abortion-rights but socialism as well. It is outside the mainstream and it does not have as many members. However, it does have sympathy from the mainstream press which is all they have going for them. That too shall go.

Whats with this woman,tell the women to get birth control if they can not keep their legs closed,but do not try to make the government responsible for the lack of precaution taken,and the tax payers paying for this inhumane destruction of life.Not everyone in this country believe in this disgusting procedure and we should not have to pay for it.Let them pay themselves.

Enjoy the scorpion fight. There is no honor among thieves, bullies, or communists. They always turn on each other.

They didn't say you couldnt get birth control pills under this healthcare , how rediculous that some seem to think abortion is birth control. Do liberals not see the problem here, a fetus is only a fetus when the idiot woman who had unprotected sex doesnt want to have a baby, if its a wanted child then its a baby from conception. This is 2009, birth control pills have been available for what 40+ yrs, wake up stupid women, take the pill and you wont have to worry about this healthcare covering your abortions, teach your daughters about prevention and get them on the pill, if they are dating odds are they are having sex.

Obama would have sold your grandmother to get his bill passed. Come to think of it, he did just that!
