Instead of talking about women’s rights, these Congressswomen should be telling women about the dangers of the morning after pill. Or, maybe, like the Obamacare bill, they have not read up on the risks. “In August 2000 Michael Cullen, MD, Medical Director at Searle, the manufacturer of Cytotec (the morning-after pill), wrote a letter to the FDA. In it, Dr. Cullen reminded the FDA “Cytotec was not approved for the induction of labor or abortion.” He goes on to say: “Serious adverse events reported following off-label use of Cytotec in pregnant women include maternal or fetal death; uterine hyperstimulation, rupture or perforation requiring uterine surgical repair, hysterectomy or salpingo-oophorectomy; amniotic fluid embolism; severe vaginal bleeding, retained placenta, shock, fetal bradycardia and pelvic pain. ” He establishes that Searle cannot “provide complete risk information” since the drug was not intended to be used for abortion purposes.” http://www.nolanchart.com/article7447-th e-dangers-of-legal-abortion.html

I think we’re back to scorpion-on-the-frog territory here: their nature demands it. Obama and his ilk’s lifting of the leg to piss on Catholicism is instinctive and reflexive. It’s certainly not Machiavellian in the sense that it was hatched by great intelligences or is following some cunning script. The brainpower of the people now wrecking this country flirts with flat-out stupid. No serious adult can look at people like Holder, Sibelius, Jarret, Biden, Boxer or Reid and see anything but tiny, reactionary minds.

I can guarantee you that these ignoramuses have lived too long in an intellectual bell jar. The oxygen was used up long ago, and the resulting hallucinations are telling them that Catholics and other Christians are just like them: bereft of principles and courage. Their awakening will be very rude.

You are all correct. Absolutely and completely. The only wrong one in all of this is the Obama administration, which is doubling down on its position. I’m trying to figure out why it is so intransigent. Yes, it could be satisfying the base, but it strikes me that a lot of the base is getting upset about this one. I wonder if the administration didn’t realize that, even for lukewarm, one-Sunday-a-year Catholics, the kind who happily use contraceptives themselves and don’t mess with other people’s abortion decisions, seeing the government force religions to pay for abortions and contraceptives is one bridge too far. Or does the administrative have some Machiavellian plan here that I’m missing so that, judo-like, they’ll turn the religious protests to their advantage?

2008 B.E. (Before Election) “U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama side-stepped a pointed query about abortion on Saturday by ‘mega-pastor’ Rick Warren during a televised forum.Asked at what point a baby gets “human rights,” Obama, who strongly supports abortion rights, said: ‘… whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity … is above my pay grade’ ”. And floating around the web today this find - a pro life Obama website (B.E.) SEE IT HERE

Interesting site, SADIE.

I don’t think that it is very accurate, though. I took a look at Massachusetts and found three of the dominant religious groups missing from the list: Feminists, Wiccans and “House of Kennedy” (did I just repeat myself?).

Like I said, the Left are a bunch of totalitarian evil death cultists and Obama is evil. Period. What else is new. Circumventing the US Constitution? They Have Been Doing This For Decades. Do you know how many decades?

Yeah, might want to look that one up.

I am so confused. Somehow, we jumped from “Keep your government out of my womb!” to “use the money that the government extracted from the citizens by force to pay for my abortions!”

Every now and then you just have to sit back and marvel. I mean, I am awash in wonderment that I live in a country that would allow a trio like this inside the building where decisions are made, let alone a country in which there are regions and populations that would actually elect them to anything. Look at these three! People, actual, (alleged) people have voted for them!

Where the hell did my country go?
