Hey, universally hated baby-killing congresscreep Bart Stupak is retiring, too. For some reason the "Tea Parties" are taking credit for this, even though they are just the noisiest group of people who dislike him. (These guys deserve some credit too!)

Representative Bart Stupak hijacked the most important domestic policy priority of the Democratic party until the bill was suitably damaging to one of the most important constituencies of the party. Now he wants to quit because no one likes him.

House Dems "have the votes now" and it's scheduled for tonight. Even abortion foe Bart Stupak is ready to vote 'yes.' Expect Republicans to go apeshit during today's floor debates, which are officially irrelevant except as a platform for venting.

Bart Stupak is the Democratic Congressmen who added the "no abortions for people who can't afford them out of pocket" amendment to the House Health Care bill. Guess where he lives!
