“There are some folks out there who are, frankly, bearing false witness (*interesting choice of words eh?), but I want everyone to know what health insurance reform is all about… You’ve heard that this is all going to mean government funding of abortion. Not true. These are all fabrications that have been put out there in order to discourage people from meeting what I consider to be a core ethical and moral obligation.”
- President Obama, August 19, 2009
Pro-life democrats wouldn’t sign a bill funding abortion. Obama put the reform into writing. So now you have Obama’s word, is hand shake, and you have it in writing that they will not federally fund abortion.
Not so fast… in today’s news:
“The Health and Human Services Department is giving Pennsylvania $160 million to set up a new high-risk insurance pool that will cover any abortion that is legal in the state.”
- CNS News, July 14, 2010
“In New Mexico, the new $37 million high-risk pool began enrolling individuals on July 1st. They will start receiving benefits in August, including elective-abortion services, according to the state insurance department’s website. Once a deductible is paid, 80 percent of the elective abortion is covered.”
- The National Review, July 14, 2010
What is Obama’s word even worth?!
