  This is about the choice regarding abortion. The US House hasn't said "No abortions", they said "we don't want to pay for it." Very different things. If the pro-choice people still have choice, and the pro-life people don't have to pay for someone else's choice that they cannot abide, is that not a middle-ground that can be started from?
  
  I still expect vigorous debates on the issue, of course. But everyone has a little bit of what they wanted.
