Fearmongering from Jan Schakowsky

My congresscriter, Jan Schakowsky, is having a rough December; the Evanston uber-liberal is getting the attention she so richly deserves.

Here is her latest headache: Newsalert found a YouTube audio clip in which Schakowsky makes the absolutely ridiculous claim that if ObamaCare doesn't cover abortions, women will be forced into back alleys to have one performed--with a coat hanger of course.



What Schakowsky doesn't explain is that the modest goal of the Stupak Amendment is to continue the current ban on federal funding of most abortions. Numerous polls have found that a majority of pro-choice Americans support the current ban on government-paid abortions.

I can't believe the good people of Illinois have elected this woman. Or Obama for that matter. Jan Schakowsky is a disgusting woman who should be ashamed for her 'fear mongering' that they so love to accuse Republicans of.
At least I know some folks in IL are smart - my aunt is a State Rep down there.
