Pro Life Must Equal Pro Healthcare
What happens to the chances of politicians that obstruct healthcare reform if they don't allow it to pass this year?
Do they go home to their constituents and brag about letting another 45,000 Americans die for lack of care?
Do they expect applause for allowing the highest rate of infant deaths in the industrial world?
Will they recieve donations from the people that lost their homes to pay for medical expenses?

Conservatives are coming to the conclusion that to be 'pro-life' they must be pro-healthcare reform.
Politicians that don't get that message to pass healthcare reform will lose their seats.

1. Don't see why. Pro-lifers generally support needless wars and the death penalty
Pro-control-of-every-fetus-and-its-mom is all that Pro-life has ever meant.

2. Damn you guys are stupid
Can't you use your wit to manipulate conservatives to see the light???

Can't you make the connection between life and healthcare???

If you could somehow manage to put your snarky attitudes aside and GROW UP

you might then be able to influence people, conservative people,

to see the benefits of healthcare reform...

"Well Mr. Conservative, healthcare for all would save the lives of 45,000 Americans every year!
And seeing as you are pro-life, I think you would also want to save them. Do you agree?"

Do you see how easy that argument was? If you want a bill to pass, say something useful.

Put it on a bumpersticker: "Pro-Life Pro-Healthcare"

3. Be nice if it would work that way?
Reality is that the Repugs mostly just want to regain control so they can do more of the same kind of damage seen during the B*sh years?

The points you make are good ones to make when the next election comes up...but just don't depend on the BRAINLESS ONES who voted for B*sh 2Xs to pay any attention....

"Pro-Life EQUALS Pro-Healthcare"
