Naturally the president has been tight lipped about his hopes/plans for abortion funding under his healthcare plan, I’ve heard it wasn’t mentioned at all in his press conference tonight, but some have suggested that it will be “the greatest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade,” forcing taxpayers to fund a huge “abortion industry bailout.”

On 7/19/09 White House Budget Director Peter R. Orszag told Chris Wallace on FoxNews Sunday that he was “not prepared to say” that the pending health care bills will not pay for abortion, “not prepared to rule it out”:

Admittedly, I have not paid a whole lot of attention to what has been going on in Congress regarding abortion funding and the healthcare bills. I think that some amendments both for and against abortion funding have been voted on in some committees and a good number of pro-life Democrats warned Democrat leadership that they would oppose any bill that did not specifically exclude abortion funding. Beyond that, I’m a little unclear as to what exactly is happening here so I am definitely going to try to tune in tomorrow night!
