House Democrats have cleared an impasse over abortion that has been holding up a vote on sweeping health care legislation.
A vote is expected on Saturday - after President Barack Obama makes a late morning trip to the Capitol to make one final pitch for the legislation.
According to Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan, he and other abortion opponents will be given a chance to insert tougher abortion restrictions into the legislation during debate on the House floor.
The leadership hopes that no matter how that vote turns out, Democrats will then unite to give the health care bill a majority over unanimous Republican opposition.

WASHINGTON (AP) - House Democrats have cleared an impasse over abortion that has been holding up a vote on sweeping health care legislation.
A vote is expected on Saturday - after President Barack Obama makes a late morning trip to the Capitol to make one final pitch for the legislation.
According to Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan, he and other abortion opponents will be given a chance to insert tougher abortion restrictions into the legislation during debate on the House floor.
The leadership hopes that no matter how that vote turns out, Democrats will then unite to give the health care bill a majority over unanimous Republican opposition.
Spin, lies, propaganda, and wishful thinking.
More AP jive.
And they will own it. Along with 5-year prison terms and $250,000 fines for not buying insurance. It should be wrapped around the neck of every single representative that votes for it next November.
R.S.V.P.
Liberal laws, political correctness, Democrats, RINOs, Saudi money, corrupt judges, CAIR, Muslim Brotherhood, liberal media, spinless joint chiefs, et al mudered those troops yesterday.
The Democrats are the party of corruption and Islam.
I don't know about anyone else but I plan to thumb my nose at any of this. I don't how yet but I am an American and won't be stepped on by by a African Muslim.
Never believe for one second that the Democrats will allow anything with real anti-abortion teeth into their Final Solution for the American People.
Mark Schauer(D) Michigan better reserve your moving truck because you will be coming back to Michigan a private citizen after 2010, you fricking rat a**hole.

Stupak Amendment Proffered To Rules Committee [Robert Costa]
Pro-life Democratic Rep. Bart Stupak of Michigan is presenting his amendment to the Rules Committee now. “We wish to maintain current law,” he says, referencing the Hyde amendment. “It is not the time to rewrite policy.” There will now be much debate within both parties about what kind of deal, if any, that Stupak made and whether insurers will be able to find ways to get around the amendment’s legislative language.
They’ll all be looking for jobs soon, those Bucking Fastards.
Keep up the pressure. This thing is so close to failure :-) - just a few here and a few there and pretty soon we’ll have 41 dems opposed.
Oh and.. What’s the difference between a pro-socialized healthcare Democrat and a suicide bomber?
Nothing.
So, they’re already thinking of ways to make it obsolete with loopholes around the Hyde amendment.
In either case you could wind up dead.
I think we need to start referring to this as the Democrats “Final Solution of the American Question”
This letter is published to advise the federal government in Washington D.C. that this SOVEREIGN AMERICAN will NOT submit to the marxist/communist coup currently taking place in Washington, D.C., and will ACTIVELY OPPOSE IT.
This SOVEREIGN AMERICAN will IGNORE any laws, rules or regulations that come from Washington D.C. that further restrict the FREEDOM and LIBERTY of individuals, and will in the future IGNORE any PREVIOUS, UNConstitutional laws, rules or regulations that have restricted the FREEDOM and LIBERTY of individuals in this country.
Further, this SOVEREIGN AMERICAN will encourage others to ignore any laws, rules or regulations that restrict the FREEDOM and LIBERTY of any individual in this country.
Whether the laws relate to "health insurance mandates", gun laws, environmental law or any other "law" that restricts INDIVIDUAL Americans from utilizing their own personal property, or that restricts what we can eat, or how much, what we can drink, what type of toilet we are "required" to have, what we can or cannot say, what we can think, how we must provide "service" to ANYONE, how much we can donate to our favorite charities, who we can associate with, I'm here to tell you to take all your "demands," your "laws, rules and regulations" and print them out, then fold the printout until it is all sharp corners AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR COLLECTIVE ASSES! I WILL NOT COMPLY!
Toward FREEDOM!
They must think their vote fraud machine will be in tip top order a year from now.
Voting the dead or those who’ve moved away and won’t screw up the records by ‘voting twice’ on absentee ballots, hacking into voting machines etc.
