Even if this spin is true, then the Republican Party is still
mean spirited by refusing to put a clause in the bill to protect the
life and health of the mother.

Boy, how easily you liberals are mislead by the spin and what the
media wants you to believe.

The fact is that the bill did allow the procedure to protect the
*life* of the mother.

The reason that the *health* of the mother was excluded from the
language of the bill was that the courts have broadly interpreted
that phrase to mean just about anything. If the health exception
was included, it would have left a huge loophole that would have
allowed the procedure to be performed in just about any circumstance.
