<P><BR>Washington, D.C. - <A
href="http://capwiz.com/eagleforum/utr/1/ILSRMFZZVN/LTKBMGAAAW/4890993881">Phyllis
Schlafly</A>, president and founder of the conservative grassroots
public policy organization Eagle Forum, made the following remarks
after the public announcement that formerly pro-life Democrat <A
href="http://capwiz.com/eagleforum/utr/1/ILSRMFZZVN/AUTAMGAAAX/4890993881">Bart
Stupak (D-MI)</A> will cast a "yes" vote for the Senate health care
bill today in the House. <BR><STRONG>UPDATE:</STRONG> Just before
11pm Eastern, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act (H.R. 3590) by a vote of 219 to
212 (<A
href="http://capwiz.com/eagleforum/utr/1/ILSRMFZZVN/APTKMGAAAY/4890993881">Roll
Call 165</A>).</P>
<P>"It is naïve for any elected official, especially one who
describes himself as ‘pro-life,' to expect that a promise to issue
an Executive Order that reasserts the intentions of the Hyde
Amendment will be fulfilled by the most pro-abortion president to
ever sit in the White House. Perhaps Mr. Stupak and his fellow
pro-life Democrats forget that President Obama's first Executive
Order was the repeal of the Mexico City Policy to allow for
international funding of abortion."</P>
<P>"Not only would an Executive Order be rendered meaningless in the
face of Congress passing legislation which actively provides for the
massive expansion and funding of abortion services, but anyone who
doubts the abortion tsunami which awaits this bill becoming law
lives in a fantasy world."</P>
<P>"Barack Obama has lined every existing federal agency with the
most dedicated pro-abortion ideologues, and we know that he will
continue this pattern of pro-abortion appointments when it comes
time for him to fill the over-100 bureaucracies created to
administer his socialized health care program."</P>
<P>"Any formerly pro-life Democrat who voted ‘Yes' on the Senate
health care bill tonight will be forever remembered as being among
the deciding votes which facilitated the largest expansion of
abortion services since Roe v. Wade."</P>
<P>"Mr. Stupak and his Democrat followers have now clarified that
you cannot be pro-life and be a Democrat. If abortion was truly
their biggest issue, they wouldn't willfully align themselves with
the Party of Death."</P>
<P>"This vote has exposed the myth of the ‘pro-life Democrat.' With
this single vote, the Democratic Party has divided our nation into
the Democrat Party of Death and the Republican Party of Life, and
future elections will never be the same."</P>
