President Obama has reportedly told the Pope that he intends to see a reduction in the number of abortions, but it seems as though his plan is to promote birth control rather than limit abortion, oh and at your expense! Yet when questioned hard this week over the possiblity of pending Healthcare reform including TaxPayer Funding of abortions, Robert Gibbs spinned or by omission simply did not tell the truth.

“I think that that [abortion funding] will wind up being part of the debate,” Orszag told Fox News. “I am not prepared to say explicitly that right now. It's obviously a controversial issue, and it's one of the questions that is playing out in this debate.” Last week, the Senate Health Education Labor and Pensions Committee declined to adopt the Hatch amendment, forbidding federal funding of abortion, in its version of the health-care reform bill. Sen. Chris Dodd (D.-Conn.), who is shepherding the bill through the Senate, defended the bill’s prospective funding of abortion. “We like the idea that people have choices and, indeed, the law of the land permits people to make those choices, and we respect that, and we are going to pursue that,” Dodd told CNSNews.com last week when asked about abortion funding in the bill. “Again, we do not want to discriminate when people have--they have convictions, moral convictions and religious convictions.”
