Fabulous speech but he still threw us under the bus. Especially women
and plaintiffs. He singled out abortion as not being paid for and will cooperate with torte reform. Perhaps they won't pay for male reproductive health and what premium will he set on a life lost to incompetence? And the offer to go down the "public path if insurance companies don't provide affordable options? Don't make me laugh.He kissed GOP butt while seemingly not too brilliant speech but meaningless.
But I give him and the speech writers credit. masterful speech and well delivered!

Or promised not to pay for them however you wanna look at it.
Either way odds are abortion will be covered in time.

3. He said federal tax dollars won't pay for abortions

Since the public plan is paid for by premiums, you would still be able to get an abortion through the public plan.
Hmmm this dummy may be on to something he speaks the obama doublespeak apparently.

55. They won't pay for abortion. But I'll bet you a brazillion dollars they'll still pay for Viagra...
and penile implants, etc.
and nose jobs, and sex change operations, and hangnail removal but, your 89 year old grandma will be given percocet and end of life counseling.
