What you're missing is making a fetish out of one procedure and one situation for a relatively inexpensive procedure not needed by every woman and by some women never, over the possibility of catastrophic illness with expensive treatments being covered.

I guess some would rather see women untreated for things like cancer and arthritis and the million other things that go wrong rather than just pay for a $500 procedure.

In other words, some people just want to rail against the bill no matter what it contains. If there had been no Stupak Amendment, there'd be something else.
