      Rush is anti-abortion as children refuse to age in the Dominican Republic. He needs fresh stock.

      What? It's satire.

      Irony and satire are having a vicious slapfight over which of them Rush understands less.

      There is nothing in either bill which allows abortion. The Hyde Amendment prohibits government funding for abortions. He knows that, but his idiot followers don't.

        The only real "irony" in the health care debate is that the same people imagining that reform is unconstitutional are the ones insisting on an exclusion respecting an establishment of religion.

        Now that it's almost sure to pass, listen for all the nasty lies they will regurgitate. We've had death panels since last week, now abortion is back. Eugenics and euthanasia (or youth in asia) can't be far off.

        Perhaps they will even knock up some new ones: institutionalized prostitution maybe? Enforced gayness in the army? Maybe even haute cuisine recipes for human flesh. For all anyone knows (who hasn't read it) the healthcare bill could contain any of these.

        But surely intelligent people won't swallow it. And, surely most Americans are intelligent enough, right? Right?? (Pleez, pleez, let me be right!)

          We're paying for youth in asia? I just knew it was about redistributing the wealth!

          Have you read the bill? I have. Read page 2069 of the bill. Abortion is clearly covered. Read page 2069 and tell me it isn't.

            It isn't covered except in extreme circumstances like threatening the life of the woman, rape, etc.

        Read page 2069. Abortion is clearly covered. Read page 2069 and get back to me. Even if you think killing babies is fine, surely you don't think it is acceptable to use taxpayer money of those who consider to be murder to finance these mini-Auschwitzes we call Planned Parenthood offices.

      The bill only funds the extermination of Beanie Babies. For the good of society, you see.

        I think it discusses eliminating Cabbage Patch Kids as well.

      Wouldn't it be ironic if healthcare failed because of the babies. We have worked tirelessly to save the babies, but it would be an interesting twist if it were on account of the babies that the bill fails and we are saved from the death panels.

        Except there aren't any "death panels" we need to be saved from.

          Anyone with parents in their 60s or 70s is scared to death that their parents may face a death panel in the future. I know it scares the hell out of me. Obama doesn't value human life. He opposed the BOrn Alive Infant Protection Act, he wanted to kill Terri Schiavo, and he is fine with denying life saving medical care to seniors. He is an evil man.
