Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) deserves credit for sticking to his pro-life principles and uniting a group — the “Stupak Dozen” — of pro-life Democrats to oppose the health care bill.

Reid to McConnell: Game on, reconciliation time!
Well, it’s going to happen. Sen. Hary Reid (D-NV) sent a letter to Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) with plans to move forward with the health care reform bill without any GOP support and without the backing of most Americans.
This is what our Congress is capable of these days. Remember this when November comes.

Actions speak louder than words, and as much as Democrats decry accusations pinning them as national security softies, there’s a very good reason for it. Consider what the House Democrats tried to sneak into the intelligence authorization bill:
