America is on its last legs and the mountains of idiocy churned out by this White Hut and the accomplices in the Senate do nothing but to accelerate the bitter end of a Republic!
Many Catholic and Lutheran entities are self-insured. Obama would still be forcing them to pay for the killing of the unborn with the morning after pill. This is his “compromise.”
“Obama’s “deal” on contraceptives is a trick.”

It’s more than a mere trick. It’s an outright LIE.
“Despite what President Obama said at his White House press conference, the actual regulations make permanent the “interim final regulations” issued August 3, 2011 — the ones that sparked the furor in the first place.
...The bottom line is this: “Accordingly, the amendment to the interim final rule with comment period amending 45 CFR 147.130(a)(1)(iv) which was published in the Federal Register at 76 FR 46621-46626 on August 3, 2011, is adopted as a final rule without change.” [Emphasis added.]
Translation: The Obama administration FRIDAY AFTERNOON put into federal law the very regulation that drew objections from almost 200 Catholic bishops, some 50 religiously affiliated colleges and universities, 65 North American bishops of Orthodox churches, numerous other Jewish, Evangelical and Lutheran leaders, and even some liberals — and without changing so much as a comma.”

Of course, the press is not saying anything about this.
> The Catholic Bishops v. Obama
The Catholic Bishops cannot be taken seriously until they publicly excommunicate every politician that openly supports abortion, birth control, and homosexuality in defiance of their bishop’s correction to the contrary.
And the Pope cannot be taken seriously until he starts replacing American bishops who refuse to discharge their responsibilities in this matter with bishops who will.
Constitutionally, what gives him the right to make any mandate on the citizens of America?
He is a dictator.
America is only on its last legs if we continue to sleep and leave the current 8A residents of 1600 PA Ave in place. Personally, I think they just jumped the shark with this issue. They’re farther left than even a far left Church on this. Even the bishops are stirring from their slumbers. The only downside is the riots that will engulf the inner cities when The Massiah gets tossed out of office.
I've been frequently put in mind, in this discussion, of the epilogue to the movie "A.I." - thanks to the convenience of "David" and "Darla" robots offering all the pleasures of having children with none of the hassles, the human race has gone extinct, leaving behind only the robots to search through the ice-age wasteland to find clues about the lives their creators.
“But, says HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, premiums would go down because, inter alia, you would not have to provide health services to those pesky babies who would have been born, had you not aborted them.”
She could go around, wearing a bumper sticker: “Kill babies! It’s cheaper!”
Well, considering that the foreign marxist, muslim, usurper received 59 million votes in '08 and after his destruction of The Country for three years, he has not been challenged by congress, or the courts and he still has rabid defenders and supporters, the answer appears to be somewhere below that of a moron.
I pray every day that America will wake up before it is too late.
Note to all: The author of this piece, Michael Hammond, is one of the nation’s leading legislative strategists. I had the privilege of working with him back when he was the General Counsel to the US Senate Steering Committee, and he was a marvel at twisting the left in knots. The Repubs in the Senate should bring him back to Washington to drive Harry Reid nuts.
Mike, if you read this, drop me a note.
RECREATIONAL CONTRACEPTIVES
It's not a trick. It's a tactic. A strategy. The Modus Operandi espoused by Karl Marx his own self: Two steps forward, one step back.
The net result is still one step forward.
But, in this case, Urkel has modified the SOP to "Two steps forward, one step to the side."
I understand what you're saying, but to call such substances "medicines" is crazy. That's like calling a lethal injection "medicine". Face it-an abortion is the only legal medical procedure in which a death is considered a successful outcome.
