BREAKING- The Hill: Stupak is a YES!

By GottaLaff

UPDATE: Just saw it on MSNBC: It's a yes.

"We have an agreement to protect the sanctity of life... no public funding for abortion in this legislation." I always supported reform. The executive order will be signed AFTER the legislation. No public funding. You can't pay for abortions with funds appropriated via health centers. Religious or moral objections won't be co-opted. Conscience clause is always available and a force of law. Real winner is the American people.

He's thanking everyone, especially the president.

MSNBC also reports that the executive order "adds additional safeguards. Restrictions cannot be circumvented."

Original post:

He wanted a lot of attention, he's getting a lot of attention. His infantile needs apparently trump the health and lives of thousands of Americans.

At a press conference just now, Bart Stupak announced he is voting YES on health care reform.

Bingo.

Democrats have reached a deal on an executive order on abortion that could hand them a victory on healthare.

"Eight or nine" Democrats, including Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), will announce the deal at a 4 p.m. press conference, according to an anti-abortion Democrat.

"We've changed [our votes]," said Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-Ohio).
