			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Listen to what the Votex has to say and give it some thought after you get past the initial shock of his comments because the concept is so &#8220;Un-American&#8221;. My question is how long will our country last under its current trajectory provided the second coming doesn&#8217;t happen first? Another 100 years? Another 200 years? I would be interested to hear how long folks think the good old USA can last on its current course. At some point we go bankrupt for sure as I think the cancer in this country is too ingrained into the fabric of the nation to truly remove it and change course. Democracy is a human experiment, Benevolent Dictatorship is God&#8217;s ever lasting model.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> From the Kansas Catholic Conference</p>

<p> <strong>Congress Approves Health Care Bill Opposed by Catholic Bishops<br />
</strong><em>March 22, 2010</em> </p>
<div>Last night, by a vote of 219-212, the US House of Representatives passed the Senate health care reform bill opposed by the Catholic bishops and every major Pro-Life organization in America.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For decades, the Catholic Church has tirelessly encouraged our elected officials to reform America’s health care system in order to expand access to care. But the Church cannot support legislation that would expand access to abortion by opening the door to federal financing of abortion.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Yesterday, a handful of House members who had opposed the health care bill because of its <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/97875.aspx" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">abortion provisions</span></a> reached an agreement with President Obama that they wrongly claimed would resolve those concerns through a promised executive order. There is again unanimity within the Pro-Life community that the executive order will in fact be entirely insufficient to the task.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It is expected that President Obama will sign the bill tomorrow. In the meantime, the US Senate will debate separate legislation under the filibuster-proof reconciliation process in order to make adjustments to the approved bill. <strong>None of those adjustments, nor the executive order, will change the fact that Congress has just passed perhaps the most significant expansion of access to abortion in the 37 years since Roe v. Wade.</strong></div>
