I don’t think a guarantee from the POTUS that he will issue an executive order to veto the part of the bill he doesn’t like (particularly in exchange for votes from Congress) is constitutional. Unless this is the cover Stupak wants and no such order will be issued. Just my opinion, but I will listen to those who are smarter than me on this.

Does he realize how huge a villain he will become? He’s going to be right up there with Judas Iscariot.

Sell out is Stupak if he thinks that the executive order will not be changed after they get a vote he is in dreamland.
SELL OUTS ALL OF THEM
To: Rational Thought
In addition, Stupak will get to state his concerns about abortion funding in the bill during a colloquy on the House floor during the debate. What a pathetic little man. Wait until he sees the EO after the bill

Essentially Obama is doing a line item Veto with an executive order,it could not be legal and I don’t think given his view on abortion he will follow through on his promise.
What will probably happen is some left wing group of Abortion group with challenge the Executive order and Obama will have to tear it up, while winking like railroad crossing light....

Stupak is counting on Americans having short memories. He is convinced that either he will be re-elected in November or that he or a family member will receive a cushy government appointments as payment for his deception.
All democRATs are convinced that their support for this government takeover will be repaid with either re-election or to appointments for themselves and/or family members to cushy very high-paying government positions. They reason that elections scheduled for November 2, 2010 is seven long, long, long months away and that Americans will either forgive or forget about them or their family members.

Well, the Democrats now own HCR 100%. The American people voted the Democrats into power. Voting has consequences.

I sincerely believe in their case there will neither be forgiving or forgetting.

That is first semester law school stuff. You are right. An EO cant overrule explicitly passed legislation. Yes, and they the Dems know that. Obama and Dem Rat crew get to eat and have their cake too. They know that any court challenge against the EO will invalidate the Obama Executive Order, therefore, they still have their cake.
Stupak can't make his egregious reasoning fly...he's toast in November.

“In addition, Stupak will get to state his concerns about abortion funding in the bill during a colloquy on the House floor during the debate.”
What a joke! He gets a retractable at anytime Executive Order and gets to make a speech.
Kind of a cheap whore.
