Memo To Jim Cooper: You Voted FOR The Stupak Amendment
Either the House Roll Call misrecorded Jim Cooper's vote on the Stupak Amendment, or Jim Cooper is trying to pull a fast one on Ezra Klein:
[EZRA KLEIN:] The argument over Stupak’s amendment was striking for how effectively it evaded questions of choice and focused on the Hyde amendment. They narrowed that debate very sharply.
[JIM COOPER:]They won the argument that their amendment was the continuation of current law.
(Emphasis supplied.) "They" must have held a gun to Jim Cooper's head when he voted FOR "their" amendment. Cooper appears to be part of the anti-choice majority that "they" say exists.
Speaking for me only
