Anti-Catholic Full-Page Ad in the New York Times Today
The American Thinker ^ | 7/3/14 | Ed Lasky

Posted on 07/03/2014 2:35:40 PM PDT by marshmallow

The Hobby Lobby decision has ignited liberals and unleashed their prejudice. And this ad is shameful.

The New York Times has a full-page ad in its print edition today that should elicit protests around the nation (but likely won’t).

Here is a copy from the website of the Freedom From Religious Foundation that wrote and paid for the ad

The photo of the woman at top is that of Margaret Sanger-idol of the pro-choice movement (and the founder of Planned Parenthood) who -- this has been all but erased from the panegyrics to her greatness -- was a proponent of eugenics. She was, in the words of Arina Grossu a “racist, eugenicist extraordinaire” whose role in pushing these Nazi-like laws resulted in more than 60,000 sterilizations of vulnerable people, including people she considered ‘feeble-minded”, “idiots” and “morons.” She also spoke to KKK women’s groups.

It takes a very strange mindset to think you have a right to impose your sexual desires upon your employer.

“Employers should have no right to impose their religious beliefs upon workers”.

Would they also agree that workers should have no right to impose their religious beliefs upon employers?

Someone should follow that up with an ad about how Sanger wanted to use abortion to do away with blacks.

Two things Whores:

1. Pay for your own protection from disease and pregnancy.

2. Don’t call me daddy. I don’t owe or your little bastard a thing, since I have no say in the prevention of their existence.

At one time [not so very long ago] peoples’ sex lives were private. It was no one else’s business.

Now liberals think that businesses ought to be paying for peoples’ private sex activities.

Burwell v. Hobby Lobby: Liberals find out that “my civil rights trump your bigotry” can cut both ways. Hilarity ensues.

I'll say one thing. No one is going to read that disjointed ad. No focus. Lots of text. Uninteresting images.

I'm glad they flushed their donors' money.

Who is imposing upon whom?

Is the employer demanding the employee join his religion or obey its tenets?

Or is the employee demanding the employer fund the employee’s private activity?

We all know that it is the employee who is imposing upon the employer. The histrionics, lies, and bigotry of those demanding that employers fund employees’ private activity is astonishing and deserving of condemnation.

She obviously wasn't successful in eradicating the ‘feeble-minded”, “idiots” and “morons.

They now have the vote to boot.

As a consequence of parents not making sure that their children were taught the significance of constitutionally enumerated protections and immunities, many citizens evidently do not understand that the only civil right based on sex that the states have enumerated into the Constitution is the right to vote regardless of sex as evidenced by the 19th Amendment.

Otherwise, regardless of PC, special interest interpretations of the 14th Amendment's (14A) Equal Protections Clause, the Supreme Court had officially clarified that 14A added no new protections. It only strengthened enumerated protections.

“3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had [emphasis added].” —Minor v. Happersett, 1874.

And since the states have never enumerated so-called women's contraceptive rights into the Constitution, there is no such constitutional protection regardless of 14A.

Likewise for so-called gay rights like gay marriage.

Margaret Sanger

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

- Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble, December 10, 1939 (Smith College, Sanger Collection)

I agree. Maybe in all their anger/haste, they forgot the KISS principle.

At what point do American blacks realize that drinking the Kool-Aid has simply left them as child-like, semi-literate beggars?
