This is NOT about “access to birth control.”

Birth control is available in every drug store and public rest room in the country.

The HHS mandate is about the government trampling on our First Amendment rights.

It’s also about forcing up health insurance costs to the point where the private sector can no longer offer it.
The Left wants all health care moneys to be run through the government coffers.
The Left wants all health care decisions to be dictated by the government.
This mandate is just one step in the whole plan.
If you’ve paid attention to the Obamacare debates, you already know this.

The sides are being clearly drawn.
And, make no mistake, friends.
The lines are CONSTITUTIONAL.

Republicans are for it.
Democrats are against it.

As for the Left-Stream Media … check out how Left-biased this ABC report is.

Senate Democrats Say Obama ‘Reinforced’ His Stance on Contraception Mandate at Democratic Retreat – Feb 8, 2012
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/02/senate-democrats-say-obama-reinforced-his-stance-on-contraception-mandate-at-democratic-retreat/

Lots and lots of Democrat rhetoric that skews the meaning of the debate.

Words like “contraception.”
Wrong. The morning after pill is mandated and that is definitely NOT contraceptive.

But there is NOT ONE WORD about the Republican position.

Not one.

Gillibrand said, “What is more intrusive than trying to allow an employer to make medical decisions for someone who works for them?”

I dunno. How about a Senator who lies about what the real issue is?

THE THURSDAY CPAC GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

When I was 8,I joined the Cub Scouts.At 11 I went into the Boy Scouts as a rite of passage,as many boys did back then.There was a local Scout camp about 30 miles south of where we lived.We went there for a couple summers straight.One summer we wanted to go to Camp Northwoods in Watersmeet,Michigan.I don’t recall what the trip cost back then,but it was considerable.We didn’t want to sell popcorn because every other scout troop was doing it.Your humble correspondent came up with an idea.

We went to Hoople’s Grain and Feed Store(it’s still there)and got stacks of empty feed sacks.Living on a dairy farm,I had an unlimited supply of fresh manure to sell for fertilizer.One kid’s dad was a graphic designer and he made us a big sign for our roadside stand.The sign read:BUY YOUR BS FROM THE BSA. We sold enough for every kid to go to the Northwoods.True story.

WILL ‘KNOWN UNKNOWNS’ PUT ROMNEY IN THE WHITE HOUSE?
I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if some Obamabots were helping Romney because they want to run against the Romneycare Mormon.

BILL SEEKS TO REINSTATE DEATH PENALTY IN IOWA

At the risk of sounding like a Neanderthal,I’m in favor of a national death penalty with a five year limit on appeals.Kill a police officer,a child or an elderly person and you WILL die.Preferably a public hanging.Maybe some of these droopy-pants,gang sign-flashing,drug-dealing bastards would think twice about beating a 90 year old woman to death for the few dollars in her purse.So I’m a vindictive old fossil.Deal with it.

Whose rights?

IMHO, this video sums up the difference between the Left and the Right.

A small group of Lefties raucously and disruptively shout on and on about THEIR right to abortion-on-demand while actively depriving the assembled Pro-Lifers THEIR right to peaceful assembly, freedom of speech, freedom of religion and freedom of conscience.

Meanwhile, a group of Pro-Lifers that out-numbered the Lefties about ten-to-one did NOT give them the whupping they so richly deserved.

Sorry … I can’t get this URL to heat up or work right. If you go to the addy above, it will tell you “The page you requested does not exist. For your convenience, a search was performed using the query bridging gap hell you.” The top choice is the article. And its URL is precisely what I posted. Oy.

One thought about this. The article by Bishop David A. Zubik begins, “It is really hard to believe that it happened. It comes like a slap in the face.”

“It is really hard to believe” ????? Seriously!?

Dear Bishop, where have you BEEN all these years?! Barack Obama BLOCKED legislation in the Illinois Senate that would have provided medical assistance and comfort care to live-born abortion survivors.

How is it surprising that a man who wouldn’t give so much as a BLANKET to a dying NEWBORN would violate the conscience rights of millions of Americans?

First Amendment Firefly Firestorm

Great video, especially if you’re a Firefly fan, like moi. Watch the whole thing. There’s a bit in the middle that makes it feel like the Firefly stuff is over, but it isn’t. And the very end is hysterical.

A University of Wisconsin professor put a quote from the TV show “Firefly” and entered a First Amendment firestorm. Though the university tried to deny this professor his First Amendment rights, new media pundits went on the offensive and using blogs and social media to protect his basic civil liberties.
