Subject: The Abortion Lie in the Healthcare Bill


Dear Friends,
This week, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are trying to pass the Senate health bill in the House.

They're claiming that the bill does not fund abortions. This is a lie.

Page 2071 of the Senate health bill specifically says abortions will be paid for with federal funds.

Tell Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid you will not stand for this moral outrage or their outright duplicity.

SIGN OUR PETITION HERE

It says "We the undersigned demand that no healthcare legislation be passed that uses taxpayer money for abortions."

It also features a powerful video from ReAL Action, the citizen arm of Renewing American Leadership that shows the lies of the left and the clear language of the Senate bill that says it funds abortion.

SIGNING OUR PETITION HERE will demonstrate how many Americans are opposed to the left's health bill and will not stand for taxpayer dollars funding abortion.

And once you have signed our petition, please forward this email to 5 of your friends.

Your friend,
Newt
P.S. CLICK HERE to sign our petition demanding that no taxpayer money be used for abortions in the health care bill.

Re: The Abortion Lie in the Healthcare Bill

this whole thing is very disturbing. The "slaughter rule" to be used to say screw the constitution...I just read that Obama just picked up a supporter today in congress...Man, this is nerve wracking...Im really worried that its going to get pushed through...


Dear------,

This Washington Post headline yesterday is all you need to know about how corrupt the process has become to pass ObamaCare by any means necessary this week: "House may try to pass Senate health-care bill without voting on it."

Huh? You read that correctly. Because Speaker Pelosi cannot find enough votes to pass the deeply unpopular ObamaCare bill in a constitutional way, she is hoping you and other Americans won't notice, or won't care, whether she passes ObamaCare in an unconstitutional and blatantly corrupt way.

Her latest plan is called the "Slaughter Rule", which would allow the House to vote on a different bill and "deem" the Senate's ObamaCare bill as being "passed" at the same time as the other bill is passed, without having an actual up and down vote on the ObamaCare bill.

Said Pelosi in an interview: "It's more insider and process-oriented than most people want to know....but I like it, because people don't have to vote on the Senate bill."

Pelosi may like "deeming" laws passed, but passing laws without voting on them is blatantly unconstitutional. As former federal judge Michael McConnell wrote in the Wall Street Journal:

"It may be clever, but it is not constitutional. To become law...the Senate health-care bill must actually be signed into law. The Constitution speaks directly to how that is done. According to Article I, Section 7, in order for a "Bill" to "become a Law," it "shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate" and be "presented to the President of the United States" for signature or veto. Unless a bill actually has "passed" both Houses, it cannot be presented to the president and cannot become a law."


Speaker Pelosi and President Obama are counting on you, your friends, and your family not to notice or care that they are doing this. That's why together, we must get the truth out and tell everyone that we know about what they are trying to do.

This is just one more example of the bribery and corruption that has been used to try and pass ObamaCare, like the Cornhusker Kickback and the Louisiana Purchase.

If they are willing to corrupt our constitutional system right before our eyes to pass Obamacare, why should we have any confidence that they won't corrupt your healthcare when nobody is paying attention?

Together, we can stop ObamaCare and stop the corruption, and we look forward to working with you in the days ahead to do exactly that.

Sincerely,
Vince-Signature
