I'm also compelled to add that though I hold a more liberal view on the overall performance of abortions within society, I am NOT okay with tacking that procedure onto the national health proposal. I agree that it undermines Pres. Obama's ability to get the program going. I do not want the state (aka my tax dollars) to pay for abortions. I've thought, always, that those operations ought to remain private both personally and financially, being the absolute burden of both the doctors and patients that participate in it.
