Speaking of Bart Stupak, his pro-life opposition to Obama’s health care monstrosity has elicited a primary challenge from Democrats.
The Washington Free Press reports:
Michigan?s Bart Stupak, a Democratic congressman who could help bring down health care reform over an abortion provision, is getting a primary challenge this year.
Connie Saltonstall of Charlevoix said today she plans to run against Stupak for the Democratic nomination of Michigan?s First Congressional District, citing Stupak?s efforts to stop health care reform if it doesn?t ban use of government money for abortions. Stupak, a former state trooper from Menominee, has held the seat since 1993.

?I believe that he has a right to his personal, religious views, but to deprive his constituents of needed health care reform because of those views is reprehensible,? Saltonstall said in a statement.
I see. Pro-life religious convictions are bad; invoking religious language to advocate a government takeover of health care is good. Zikes!
