The consensus “Democrat to end all Democrats” du jour, Bart Stupak, hates abortion with the fury of a Pharaoh! And thanks to his precious last-minute amendment, authored by the Catholic Bishops of America — people who still believe that wafers and wine turn into the flesh and blood of Jesus Christ when ingested, even after 2000 years of human learning — abortion will be between you and the coathanger, ladies. (If it stands.) Just thought everyone should be reminded that Bartholomew lives in the C Street house with all those Republicans who cheat on their wives, even though John Ensign has moved out, and Chip Pickering is presumably dead. [TPM]

You know, of course, there isn’t much Catholic about that C Street House. They may let one or two Catholics in for window dressing, but that’s about it.
Fudgpak!
And woman shall continue to live under the boot heel of the catholic church.
Someone should shove a burning hot coathanger up Stupak’s ass to give him his own “back alley” abortion. His wife must be a real piece of work, what with being barefoot & in the kitchen all her life. Or maybe he’s gay & hates women, along with himself. That would explain much.
Ask him about the pool parties at The Cedars.
I’M WITH

[re=454072]AbstinenceOnly Ed[/re]: Look at his eyebrows. They are oh so artfully plucked (in fact, they look better than mine, and I am a well-groomed female). Could this indicate anything about our Fudgpak?
It should be mentioned that on pretty much any issue other than abortion, Stupak has a pretty liberal record — opposed Iraq war, CAFTA etc.
[re=454073]hobospacejunkie[/re]: I think you mean the ruby Prada slippers of the catholic church.
s2-pac lives!
Menominee doo doo doo doo doo,
Menominee doo dwoo doo doo,

Nice sweater, Bart.
What, he’s in the Navy?
When asked if there were any ethical concerns created by living in a house inaccurately listed as a church in order to evade property taxes, Stupak replied: “I don’t own the building, I don’t know how the landlord has it listed. I pay rent for a room. I sleep there. I have a room.”
YOU KNOW WHO ELSE SLEPT IN A ROOM??!?!2
[re=454071]Terry[/re]: Oh, they’ll take anybody, regardless of religion. They worship Jesus the buff linebacker and fighter pilot rather than adhere to a particular set of doctrine. I’m reading The Family by Jeff Sharlet right now, and they got Suharto, the Indonesian who butchered 500,000 of his own citizens (they were commies, you know) and then offed a quarter million East Timorese, to join one of their prayer groups. They’re all about cultivating the rich and powerful, regardless of their horrible actions — essentially, they believe if God put someone in power, they must be okay.
From force of habit, the Bishops began their pitch with, “Now Bart, this will just be our little secret…”
Hey, if you’re going to mock the Catholic Church, at least get it right–the wafer and wine transubstantiate before they are ingested, and whether or not they are ingested at all.
You’d think having supermajorities in both houses of Congress would enable the Democrats to actually get things done without compromising with the lady-hating fringe, but nope; we’ve got to deal with a shitload of fucks like this guy.
If you really want to be terrified at the future of our republic read The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power by Jeff Sharlet. In the book Sharlet details the type of indoctrination that goes on at the C Street house and the other ‘safe houses’ this religious mafia operates. Stupak is lying if he says he just rents a room there. If you reside there or visit much you have to sign on to their bullshit.
There ‘faith’ is in Jesus and nothing else. Except making as much money as possible and gaining access to as much power as possible. Dictators are especially welcome, no Christianity needed as long as you’re willing to assist the Family. This group started the National Prayer Breakfast as a way to further worm their way into Congress & the White House.
[re=454080]Violenza[/re]: He’s a big Zac Efron fan.
Chip Pickering isn’t dead until his wife tells him he is.
[re=454102]chascates[/re]: Burn ‘em like Waco. Also.
[re=454077]ph7[/re]: Which Cedars?
This one: http://www.cedarscampground.com/
or this one: http://www.qguide.com.au/story/adelaide/Heysen-The-Cedars.php (Congressional Junket, natch!)
Well, rich ladies will still be able to abort with wild abandon. Think about the amendment a brave stand against gold-plated coat hangers.
[re=454099]SnarkyMark[/re]: Can you transubstantiate that claim?
Hey, I’ve been to Menominee. I’d live in a house full of filthy cock jackals, too.
[re=454073]hobospacejunkie[/re]: It does appear to be so, even while unborn child shall continue to live under the boot heel (vacuum? curettage?) of party-line Democrats. Whatever happened to a little “women and children first” chivalry?
[re=454099]SnarkyMark[/re]: Thank you, Snarky. I, too, was appalled at the lack of knowledge about transubstantiation shown by the “author” of this “article.” Such facts are obvious to all of us who have broken into churches in Indiana to chow down…
Maybe I shouldn’t add this last part.
[re=454081]Manos: Hands of Fate[/re]: And you know who else liked dogs?
[re=454113]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Co-sign
[re=454128]doxastic[/re]: But of course. One standard for the rich and another for the poors has always been part of Catholic Jesus’ plan.
[re=454084]Crank Tango[/re]: YO PLAYA! S2Pacalypse Now IS CUMMING1!
JIZZLE CHRIZZLE IS IN DA C-HIZZLE!! CHUG LIFE 4 EVS MY W.I.G.G.A.Z!!1
He has a swatch of marmoset hair glued to his forehead.
[re=454084]Crank Tango[/re]: The house floor was taken aback when Stupac finished his speech saying; “My mama always used to tell me: ‘If you can’t find somethin’ to live for, you best find somethin’ to die for.”
[re=454092]SayItWithWookies[/re]: [re=454102]chascates[/re]: Thanks, eventually I would have gotten around to ranting about this. They are far from harmless. Here’s an interview with the author, good summary of the book.
[re=454143]BeWoot[/re]: Hungry Koreans?
[re=454102]chascates[/re]: If Hopey wants to do something meaningful during his first term, he should end the Family’s sponsorship of the National Prayer Breakfast. Have the National Council of Churches or the National Council of Christians and Jews sponsor it.
Or, better yet, just DARE anyone to complain by having the NPB put on by the head chaplains of the military services.
Can you be both a vegetarian and a good Catholic? How does that work?
Current congress members that are also Family members:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fellowship_(Christian_organization)#Members_currently_in_the_US_Congress
Mentions Stupak.
[re=454081]Manos: Hands of Fate[/re]: Cold comfort. If this shit passes, it’s going to be back-alley abortions for American women, and those are even more agonizing than your namesake movie.
[re=454099]SnarkyMark[/re]:
…and thus why we were all threatened with bloody murder by the nuns to make sure we didn’t drop the Host or let it fall off our tongues. Throwing up after receiving Communion was pretty bad, too, basically you just tossed Christ on the floor right there with the remains of whatever had been in your stomach.
If you send RedState $50, they’ll send a box of amazon.com coathangers to Bart. Or something.
Let me get this straight, this necrophilia thing, you’re drinking blood and eating human/supernatural flesh — now I know why there are so many stupid vampire shows.
From Sharlet’s article on Christianity & the military (http://www.harpers.org/archive/2009/05/0082488)
“Under Orders: A Spiritual Handbook for Military Personnel, by Air Force Lieutenant Colonel William McCoy, should be in every rucksack for those moments when Soldiers need spiritual energy,” reads a blurb from General David Petraeus. . When the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) demanded an investigation of Petraeus’s endorsement—an apparent violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, not to mention the Bill of Rights— Petraeus claimed that his recommendation was supposed to be private, a communication from one Christian officer to another.
“He doesn’t deny that he wrote it,” says Michael “Mikey” Weinstein, president of MRFF. “It’s just, ‘Oops, I didn’t mean for the public to find out.’ And what about our enemies? He’s promoting this unconstitutional Christian exceptionalism at precisely the same time we’re fighting Islamic fundamentalists who are telling their soldiers that America is waging a modern-day crusade. That _is _a crusade.”
[re=454076]hobospacejunkie[/re]: [Snark on pause] I usually love you, but not when you type the sentence, “Or maybe he’s gay & hates women …” PLEASE don’t repeat that untrue and tired old meme about gay men hating women. The equivalent would be that I hate gay men because I’m a straight woman. And I certainly don’t. In fact, in my personal experience, I’ve found gay men to be more outspoken and sensitive to women’s equality than straight men are. Perhaps because they know something about being marginalized and repressed. You are, however, quite correct if you’re saying that Bart Stupak is a major TOOL. [Resume snark]
Someone we know recently attended a party at the C Street house, and all the residents there and all of the partygoers ended up doing crystal meth, ice and something called “grunk” (a highly-hallucenogic narcotic) for hours, and they ate Cheetos and sour cream and onion dip, and they all watched “The Birdcage” and “La Cage Au Folles” over and over again, for something like eight hours.
What about the “pool parties at the Cedars?” What’s “the Cedars?”
I guess it’s too late for his mother to exercise her pro-choice rights.
There is no evidence anybody believes about the wafer and Mogan David, but they profess to. Also, why is it nobody but me is holding forth for a grand opportunity to deconstruct the very Genome of Gesus! We could plot the DNA of the almighty with the able assistance of one bulimic Communion caddy, or maybe a plumber at St Pat’s. All you need do is throw away all the chromosomes which read “carpenter.”
[re=454092]SayItWithWookies[/re]: “They’re all about cultivating the rich and powerful, regardless of their horrible actions — essentially, they believe if God put someone in power, they must be okay.”
Unless they are not white.
The worst thing about this wretched caveman Stupak is that even after his coathanger amendment was adopted, he still voted against the bill.
Its a bit like doing business in some shady third world countries where even after you bribe the dodgy, nefarious government officials, they will won’t do you any favors.
Stupak is that dodgy, nefarious third world government douche.
[re=454377]glamourdammerung[/re]: Actually, all they care about is whether or not you pray to Jesus. All others must die.
[re=454171]liquiddaddy[/re]: I think it is actually a rare case of proceeding hairline.
In spite of the purposeful obfuscation on this issue, it’s clear that at least three House members live at C Street. Zack Wamp of Tennessee, needless to say, voted Yes on the Stupak amendment and No on healthcare reform; Stupak voted for his own amendment and then Yes on reform; Mike Doyle (D-suburban Pittsburgh) voted along with Stupak.
Daily Kos reports that 26 Democrats voted Yes on Stupak and No on healthcare, the truly vile combination. To me, one of the most interesting is Jason Altmire (D-PA). He unseated Rick Santorum’s adoring acolyte Melissa Hart to great acclaim in ’06, and was reelected in ’08. But since he voted against women’s rights AND healthcare reform, I’d say HOW IS THIS AN IMPROVEMENT? Rahm Emanuel should be required to answer that question.
My favorite part is how these 26 fucking assholes voted FOR the Stupak amendment And Then Didn’t Vote for the reform bill anyway. So we don’t have to worry about accessible abortion, because they don’t want us to have any access to health care for anything. Problem solved. Fuckers.
on preview: jukesgrrl beat me to it, with better cites.
Love how Stupak, who, just taking a stab from his picture, CAN’T GET PREGNANT is so keen to get involved in what happens to people who do.
Something extra hateful and spiteful from these guys who must have been mocked too much on the schoolyard. We got Stupid here, then of course there is “Rush” and “Newt” . . .
[re=454467]Jukesgrrl[/re]: There is someone named Zach Wamp? And he’s not a porn star?
Stupak deserves any criticism he gets on this particular issue. But, as someone mentioned earlier in the thread, the guy is amazingly left-wing except on abortion. He’s also not some Southern fundi evangelical-type, either.

I guess the only way I can sum this up is by saying that Yoopers are a complicated folk.
[re=454686]LowerdPeninsula[/re]: Vinegar Joe used to be kinda liberal, too. Just sayin’.
[re=454914]Jim89048[/re]: You know, Jim, I actually thought about adding an aside about Joe to my post, but ended up deleting it. The difference between the two is that Joe became more conservative, and Bart has always been honest and consistent. He’s also far more to the left of Joe than even in Joe’s younger days. The truth is that Joe claims to be a liberal on all of the issues he’s not a conservative on, but Bart is much more of a liberal.
