Obama: “This is a health care bill, Not an abortion bill.”
Perhaps Mr. Obama needs a few facts. For women of reproductive age, abortion is part of their health care. As a matter of fact one-third of all women will undergo this procedure at some point. It is the most common surgical procedure for women.
But… Obama needed more rope to hang himself so
he added:
Obama said. "And we're not looking to change what is the principle that has been in place for a very long time, which is federal dollars are not used to subsidize abortions."
Ah the change you can’t believe in! Remember when pro-choice Catholic Frances Kissling gave her support to Obama over Hillary b/c she said Obama would be more likely to get rid of the Hyde Amendment? (see links below!) HA! Obama lied! He is actually structuring a plans that would outlaw abortion coverage!
To say that abortion is not an integral part of women’s health care is lie to a degree I’ve not witnessed by a politician since we heard about those WMDs that Colin and Bush and Cheney sold us.
Perhaps Obama is using this abortion tactic as a red herring to move debate away from what he really cares about: sneaking government take over public plans into this mess of reform that is wending its way into our living rooms and bedrooms and bathrooms. So what if reproductive heath care for women is a causality to his goals. Millions of abandoned women is no reason to blink. Right? WRONG! And…
YES WE CAN, fight too much government both in our reproductive health care and our health care in general.

excellent Post by The New Agenda:
excerpt:
For the millions of women who voted for Obama on his promise to protect their reproductive rights, this past weekend's whipsaw on abortion funding is just the latest example of a president who frankly could care less about women beyond their votes.
He appointed fewer women into his cabinet than President Bill Clinton. He surrounded himself with czars, more than 90% of whom are male. He appointed Larry Summers, of "girls are inferior in math and science" fame, to a key economic post. He played basketball, golfed and fished with men and men only. He had beers with Skip Gates, but ignored it when Rihanna was almost strangled to death. And so on.

Frances Kissling on Huff PO
Obama is the Best Candidate for Choice”
Here is what she had to say:
“Of course, Obama enters the arena with a shorter record and on some of the more controversial reproductive health issues, we don't know what he would do or how he would use his office to advocate for women's reproductive rights.”

“…there are a number of areas where Senator Clinton is more likely to disappoint us and I am surprised at the short memory of my friends and colleagues who are supporting Senator Clinton. While allowing for a change of heart, we need to remember those failures.
While Burk and others noted in their letter of support Senator Clinton's leadership on Medicaid family planning funding, they studiously ignored the question of whether the Senator has led efforts to restore Medicaid funding for abortions. She has not. “
