• Stupak's Twelve

    By Matt Lockett

    In a phone interview today with National Review Online, Rep. Bart Stupak made these statements.

    They’re ignoring me. That’s their strategy now. The House Democratic leaders think they have the votes to pass the Senate’s health-care bill without us. At this point, there is no doubt that they’ve been able to peel off one or two of my twelve.

  • The Lottery

    By Susan Tyrrell

    For years, I have taught a classic short story by Shirley Jackson called “The Lottery.” Students who read it for the first time are horrified by the culmination of the story. The town fertility ritual includes the annual stoning to death of a randomly selected innocent citizen, and even the victim’s young son is seen picking up pebbles to throw at Mommy, while Mommy screams how it’s not fair as the townspeople pounce...

  • "There Is No Guarantees"

    By Ian Kelly

    The Daily Caller reports:

    Two pro-life House Democrats did not sound optimistic Thursday about the prospects for reaching a compromise on abortion language in the health care bill.

    Rep. Bart Stupak, mobbed by reporters on his way into a meeting of House Democrats to examine parts of the bill, was asked if he will require a guarantee that the Senate fix the language if the House passes it.
