jon stewart pointed something out. The GOP feels okay in blocking abortion funding because the majorty of americans are against it.
However, the majority of americans also support a public option. And the GOP is against that one. So it's only selective enforcement of american public wishes, when it fits their agenda 
NO THE GOP IS AGAINST FUNDING ABORTIONS B/C THEY BELIEVE ABORTIONS ARE WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!you ppl may not know this but the bill doesnt prohibit coverage of abortions by insurance it simply makes it where the person has to pay for that "rider" part of the policy by themselves so its not paid for by tax dollars
that seems pretty fair to me
politicians are just like everyone else, how many of you read your entire insurance contract page by page? know exactly what it covers and how it covers it? how about your lease/mortgage?
LOL I agree its stupid, its also stupid that something like that would be something you have to 'opt out" of instead of "opt into"
