Pelosi, Democrats Twisting Arms for Pro-Abortion Health Care "Suicide Mission

LifeNews.com carries the following:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and top Democrats are now in the process of trying to twist enough arms in the House and Senate to railroad the pro-abortion health care bill through Congress. The vote-gathering process is derided by some Republicans as a mission of political suicide because it is so unpopular.
Democrats are bent on using the controversial reconciliation process to get the bill approved.

That's where they use a procedural trick normally reserved for important bills funding the federal government that prohibits a filibuster in the Senate -- where Democrats would otherwise not have the 60 votes needed to get the bill approved.
In an effort to gain traction in the messaging war on television and with Americans who oppose the bill by more than 20 points, they're tacking a new tack of calling the process getting a "simple majority."

“Health care reform has already passed both the House and the Senate with not only a majority in the Senate but a supermajority,” White House health care czar Nancy-Ann DeParle said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “And we're not talking about changing any rules here. All the president’s talking about is: Do we need to address this problem, and does it make sense to have a simple, up-or-down vote."
And Pelosi herself has a new approach to gaining support for the bill -- inventing bipartisanship. Pelosi says she doesn't need Republican votes to be bipartisan. "The bill can be bipartisan, even though the votes might not be bipartisan," Pelosi said on CNN's "State of the Union." Full story at LifeNews.com
