The word was not removed from the bill because it was never in there to start with. Now you cite that lawmakers had a dificult time removing the word from the bill. So we do not have the names of these so called legislators, who put the word in there or even a copy of the Federal Register with that word in a version of the bill.

Your second sentance wording "Back when this was rumored to be in the healthcare bill" explains a lot. This is a rumor....a false rumor. There is a lot of stuff on the internet and you have to look at the source.

Finnally we have a rumor from from the internet that is just not supported by facts. If there were any truth to this rumor why would it not be covered by the national news...not the bias libral medida but Fox news. Why have ultra conservative polititians like Rush or Santorum or Paul commented on this. Simply because it never happened and they would not risk commenting on something that never happened.

With all of the scrutiny this bill and all of the legislators that worked on this bill has had no one has ever brought this up or questioned it.
This would simply be a major story in the media if it were true.

I do agree with you in that it would have been a lot of fodder for rush's cannon, I was just saying that I had read a copy of the thing that was written like miss bug had stated so there was a copy of the thing running around the internet that contained that text, not saying if it was true or not, just saying it was there.
