To Life News: He is not the commander in chief of our country. He’s commander in chief of the armed forces.

It might be a good article for you to cover Obama’s gift of hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to an organization in Kenya that seeks to liberalize the abortion laws there. This is totally illegal.

I'm dubious. Didn't get past the following statement....

I was told this, ” When Obama enacted his “health care reform,” he mandated that maternity coverage not be available to any private insurance company.”

I just re-upped our private insurance. Would be no problem to get maternity coverage, in my state, through my insurer.

Now, I will allow that it's more expensive than a "Non-Maternity Coverage" Policy. But getting it would be pretty darn easy.

IMHO, there's plenty wrong with Obamacare. However, the best way to fight it is with facts, not demagoguery. All of the facts in the world go out the window if opponents can point to one lie.

I find this nugget to be far more interesting from this article:

‘’When I worked at Planned Parenthood, there was something that we were not allowed to talk about. If we didn’t talk about it, then maybe no one else would either. It was called the Jaffe Memo. In 1969, Planned Parenthood was asked by the government to produce some ideas to help with overpopulation. They did just that. What is in the memo as a “solution” to overpopulation is astonishing.’’

Mid 20th century - maternity (pre-natal, delivery & hospitalization) expenses were not included in private or group health insurance policies.

BECAUSE -Conception and childbirth were not considered illnesses or accidents.

When finally added to coverage, (beginning with pregnancy complications, miscarriage and septicemia) - pregnancy was still subject to pre-existing exclusions.

To eliminate maternity coverage after the insurable risk has been evaluated and included for decades - is clearly manipulative and political. This is confiscation of private enterprise and competition by the insurance carriers.

Insurance coverage guarantees the cost of item covered will continuously rise. There are two forms of medical treatments which have consistently become better and more affordable. One is Lasik surgery and the other is cosmetic surgery. This is because they are not covered by “insurance.”

Insurance is socialist wealth redistribution. My guess is that if we simply did away with all forms of socialist “insurance” that the cost of medical care would be reasonable to everyone.

The abortion rate in Russia, where “family planning” has been practiced since the 1917 revolution is 6 abortions per woman during her fertile life. This is apparently because abortions are free but contraception and pregnancy cost money.

The organization title is a fraud!

They are only interested in ABORTION, and NO PARENTHOOD.

It’s not true that private insurance won’t give maternity coverage.

And Life News would do better to show a photographic reproduction of the 1969 memo, than to retype it.
