Health Insurance used to be needed because one needs to be able to pay for something serious and catastrophic that happens in your life.

Now we have contraceptions... Next, Viagra and Levitra will be considered ‘needs’, mark my words.

Is it any wonder insurance costs don’t go down?

Why not my blood pressure medication? I think it’s a little more serious than birth control.

What a typical fascist democrat ploy that reveals exactly the way they think. Reality doesn't mean a thing as long as they can think of a way to say something isn't happening, then it isn't happening even though it is, um, taking place.

Where can we find authorization in the constitution for any of this?

This also brings up other side of the commerce clause coin.

We've been arguing that the federal govt doesn't have the authority to force someone to purchase something (to force them into commerce).

But, does the federal government have the authority to force a company to sell something, or to provide a service "free of charge"? That's what Obama is doing here, and I think it's just as big a constitutional problem as forcing someone to buy something.

The federal government has the authority to regulate interstate commerce. It does not have the authority to force either an individual or company to engage in commerce.

My small business health insurance premiums went up 40% in January. Thanks Obama.

Next year, when my insurance has to cover contraception, 26 year old children of employees, and everything else that Obama wants to stick into it, I will not be able to afford to provide insurance at all.

This is, of course, the the intended result. Make private health insurance to prohibitively expensive that everyone ends up having to join the government Obamacare single payer plan.

There was some woman on Hannity yesterday that was holding on to the shibboleth of “if they cover Viagra, they have to cover birth control”, and she just would not let go of it.

It was her only answer to “why should others be forced to pay for birth control”.

There IS NO EQUIVALENCE between viagra and birth control.

Viagra is a drug that corrects a faulty bodily function.
Birth control takes a system that is in perfect working order and stops it from working.

Seems to me that the main objective of Obamacare was centralized Federal control of all health care in the country. Obama just ran a beta test, and it worked. People strangely object to the infringement on religious freedom, but don’t seem to have a problem otherwise. If the mandate had been for eye tests that would have been fine.

Look folks, Obama should be impeached. This guy is just as power hungry and controlling as all of the worst despot and dictators the world has seen!!! The sooner we come to that true conclusion about him the better off we all will be. This guy is no friend of the USA, nor “any of its people”. He and his wife are not Christians. They are either Muslims or non-believers, that really believe they are living gods born to rule and abuse all others except themselves. That mantra is as clear as the noses on your faces, American citizens. It’s time to throw this guy, Obama out of office, either by his own resignation, or impeachment. IMHO, he is an clear and present enemy of the state!!!

“Under the Senate health care bill that will be the main bill Obama and Democrats push through Congress, there is no ban on abortion funding. While some states can opt out of funding abortions under the plan, taxpayers in other states will be forced to pay for them.

But the bill contains other pro-abortion problems that are concerns for pro-life advocates.

The bill requires that at least one health care plan be promoted across the country that pays for abortions, more abortion funding would come via the affordability credits, and many of the so-called limits on abortion funding in the Senate bill are temporary and could expire or be overturned at a later date.

The Senate health care bill also pays for abortions under the Indian Health Service program.

And it contains the Mikulski amendment that would allow the Obama administration to define abortion as preventative care and force insurance plans to pay for abortions.

Finally, the Senate bill does not contain language needed to offer full conscience protection for pro-life medical workers and facilities. “

The Stupak Dozen and the moot EO that does not override law is brought to mind here.........

Where ARE the Stupak Dozen?

No, not Viagra. Barry needs all the Viagra to make him stand up straight.

Quite honestly this all seems like a charade to me. Obama, a socialist who received 54% of the Catholics in 2008, first requires that all Catholic employers provide birth control directly to all employees and the Catholics pretend to be against that. Then Obama revises his demand so that all Catholic employers have to contract a health insurer who will provide birth control! With that change, Obama will most likely get 54% of the Catholic vote again in 2012. The difference is now the baby is one payment farther from abortion. IMHO, the majority of Catholics are hypocritical and have become just like Obama.

When the Pope says no to this and declares the sanctity of human life out of the hands of any politicians, then maybe I will return to the fold. Excommunication of both Kerry and Pelosi would be an excellent start to show good faith,

Meanwhile, while I color their faces, I will use the hypocritical crayola....

Wait until HHS rules that abortion is a preventive measure and makes it free with no co-pay.

I don’t think that the City of Chicago’s insurance covers contraception.

That is an unfunded mandate. I think there are Federal Laws against those.
