Boxer praises Nelson "compromise" on abortion.

[cali]

and she and Murray lie about it.

Update: Senators Barbara Boxer and Patty Murray bless Nelson’s compromise in a joint statement:

“We said all along that we wanted to ensure there was a firewall between private and public funds — this compromise achieves that.

“We said we would not accept language that prohibited a woman from using her own private funds for her legal reproductive health care — this compromise meets that test.

“And we said we would stop Stupak — which we did. Let’s be clear — we were both much happier with the Capps language and the language in the underlying bill.

“But compromise was necessary to get a health care bill for the American people, and this compromise achieves that.”

1. All I can say is it is better than Stupak

Course Stupak, et al are still in the House lying in wait for the bill to come to conference to demand their amendment be the final bill.

3. Murray I can understand saying something like this...

Boxer I cannot.

Kill this bill.

2. Sure they can praise it

They represent states where they'll never restrict coverage on abortion.

Those of us in red states? Eat it.

4. Not happy with Boxer today.

This is so stupid.
