The word "stupak" added to the Urban Dictionary
Edited on Mon Nov-09-09 12:39 PM by MarlaM
1. Stupak (n.)

A medical condition (subset of sepsis) resulting from unsafe - unnecessarily so - back alley abortions as a result of the "Stupak Amendment" to the 2009 Health Care Reform Bill.

In context:Doctor: Unfortunately, while this would have been covered under private insurance carriers, public plans were barred from including women's health measures. I'm sorry, you'll have to see "Dr. Julio" in the alley behind 7-11.

(Three weeks later.)

Doctor: I believe you've developed Stupak, a form of sepsis, a severe illness in which the bloodstream is overwhelmed by bacteria.


2. Stupak
adj: imposing religious beliefs of one group on another, especially through legislation or financial pressure.
You thought that forcing schools to teach creationism was stupak? How about forcing poor women into back alley abortions? That's the stupakest thing I've ever heard.

3. Stupak
(v.)
To do something ridiculous, silly, moronic, stupid, asinine, idiotic, etc.

To add an unnecessary abortion amendment to a health care bill.
Wow you really stupaked that Health Care bill in the House.
