Re: your highlight - sounds fishy but PP would never engage in such a setup would they? /sarc

It’s not about Wal-mart. If Wal-mart wasn’t there it would be the next largest pharmacy.
This is good news but I don’t expect much more news on the positive side coming out of Illinois.
To: monomaniac
it won't affect an executive order from Gov. Rod Blagojevich in 2005 that requires all pharmacists to fill any prescription for a legal, drug, including any drug that could cause an abortion.I tell you what, if Gov. Blagos##t was half as concerned about the economy of this state as he is about promoting abortions, we'd be a heck of a lot better off.

Pharmacists are middle men. Get another job. Enough of this. Keep your religious beliefs at church, not in medicine.

Spend 100k on an education, get the license, open your own pharmacy, and then decide how you want to practice. Dont tell me how to live.

“the morning after pill, which can cause an abortion in limited circumstances”
The whole purpose of the drug is to cause death every time it is used...Not in limited circumstances..

I agree. I don’t want the Muslims demanding special on the job treatment for their beliefs.

Although I am as pro-life as they come, I don’t agree with this judge’s ruling (except that there is a law that she cites that sounds like it’s provides protection for this pharmacist). This is the same logic as the Muslims use when they don’t want to handle pork at a cash register due to “moral and/or religious” prohibitions. I think, though, that Wal-Mart is taking a chance at pi$$ing off its main consumer base as a lot of liberals won’t shop there anyways due to their ongoing fight with organized labor.
However, as a libertarian (with a small L), I don't believe it's an employee's right, and especially not the government's role, to tell a private employer what he will sell, or not sell. If that pharmacist doesn't want to sell that pill, then he needs to find employment at a pharmacy that refuses to carry that pill, or better yet, open his own pharmacy.

What happened to the “do no harm” oath?
Too many think that excludes God’s creations. What if their mothers ‘excluded’ them around the time of their births?
To: monomaniac
Wal-Mart's lawyer sounds remarkably like the Black Knight in Monte Python and the Holy Grail.
Don't these guys ever watch funny movies or is it "Industrial Accidents" and "Hazmat Risks" all the way down.

I’m with Wal-Mart on this one. It’s up to the business owner to decide what the business sells. It’s up to the employee to sell the merchandise. If the employee doesn’t like it, he can get another job or, better yet start his own business where he makes the decisions.

There's no reason whatsoever for any of us to become observant of your theological beliefs.
Take your filthy thoughts somewhere else.

Look, you can't be serious that any Moslem would refuse to kill someone. It's their religion's biggest item ~ that you should die for not bowing down to their beliefs.
Your point is totally irrelevant.

Not all Moslems refuse to handle pork. There are, for instance, more than a few current and past NFL players who are Moslems and they handled the pigskin quite readily.
The prohibition is on EATING pork, not touching it!

Vandersand was the only pharmacist on duty at the Wal-Mart store when a Planned Parenthood staff member seeking the Plan B drugs presented the script. The staffer eventually went to another pharmacy in town. Sounds like a set up to me. Why didn't the 'patient' pick up their own prescription?

I’m a pharmacist, and I am 30 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I can feel it kick while I fill prescriptions, and I am in awe at the power of God to create life while I go about my day.
To: Huntress
Wal-Mart's owners are stockholders. I own a few shares (through a fund that I have stock in). I think the President of the company should sit down to urinate.
Should he?

"US Representative Rod Blagojevich voted three times against bills that would require notice to a parent or guardian before an abortion could be performed on a minor."
He voted to support public funding to groups that provide abortion services, counseling or advocacy.
On September 25th, Blagojevich voted No on HR-4691, a bill that would protect medical personnel, hospitals, insurance companies and health maintenance organizations from being forced to perform abortions, fund abortions, or refer for abortions under the "conscience" clauses.
