"Pro-lifer" Bart Stupak has no problem with abortifacient demand

  If you'll recall, Roman Catholic and staunch "pro-lifer" Bart Stupak's dramatic holdout and eleventh hour cave-in added a movie flair to the passage of the obamanation Obamacare bill.
  It was great theater.
  It was Stupak's leadership that guided the so-called pro-life final 10 Democrats to finally sign on to Obamacare, thus spiraling the country into further debt and conflict.
  If you've been wondering how Stupak feels now that the church is protesting Obama's decree that all contraception, including abortifacients, must be provided free, wonder no more.
  Is he bowed? Is he ashamed? Is he regretful?
  Why, not at all!
  Bart Stupak, interviewed on Frank Beckmann's WJR radio program this morning, claims that since we force people to pay for hospital rooms and other preventive care in the health care bill, that is equivalent to requiring contraception. What is different, he asks, with the government requiring contraception?
  He sees no problem with it. 
  Screening for bone density, mammograms and such are all paid for, Stupak says, so why shouldn't contraception and abortifacients?
  "If I have a conscientious objection to the plan," Stupak said cheerfully, "I don't have to provide it!"
  Stupak is not sorry he went along with it. Th goal is to provide Americans with affordable health care. We only hear the negatives of Obamacare, not the positive. 
  Stupak went on to list the free stuff people are getting through Obamacare; the fact that the government will pay for everything is a positive that outweighs any negatives people might have concerning the government mandate that insurance companies/employers must provide free contraception including abortifacients, regardless of their religious objection.
  So there you go.
  It's all a shell game. Lift the shell and you have a pro-lifer. Lift another shell and you find an abortion provider.
  It's all no big deal. A kerfuffle over nothing, according to pro-lifer Stupak.
