Unfortunately, it is complicated.

Walgreen Disciplines 4 Pharmacists

A rule imposed by Gov. Rod Blagojevich in April requires Illinois pharmacies that sell contraceptives approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to fill prescriptions for emergency birth control. Pharmacies that do not fill prescriptions for any type of contraception are not required to follow the rule.

The problem is that this "rule" imposed (imposed is the correct word BTW) by ijit Daley Sock-puppet, Gov. Rod Blagojevich is ILLEGAL.

Governor asshat's "rule" violates the Illinois Health Care Right of Conscience Act. He was informed of this illegality before he imposed his "rule", but said in effect, 'Screw you I'm the Governor, arrest me'. Which will never happen as the IL Attorney General is also a Dem who happens to be an empty headed ditz named Lisa Madigan, whose daddy is a Dem Machine powerhouse (that's how she got elected- period).

So Walgreen's IS between a rock and a hard place. If they go against the Dem Machine's 'wishes' on this (forget the law) they'd be 'screwed, blued and tattooed'. There aren't enough lawyers in the country for what they'd be put through. From Crook County on up to the State Level, they'd be Target #1.
