Georgia Supreme Court Knocks Down Law Restricting Assisted Suicides | Fox News
Georgia Supreme Court Knocks Down Law Restricting Assisted Suicides | Fox News.
It appears that Georgia has no law against assisted suicides. There has been a law which restricts the advertising of assisted suicide. The Final Exit Network has been advertising this, and the fact that they helped a 58 year old cancer patient kill himself. This lead to a conviction of four of their members, which was overturned by the state’s Supreme Court last Monday.
The Supreme Court said that to ban the advertising, when there is no law against assisted suicide, amounts to a restriction on freedom of speech. The opinion, by Justice Hugh Thompson, suggested making a law against assisted suicide itself, rather than selectively going after those who publicly proclaimed their activities.

*153* Bishops (Over 80% of Dioceses) Have Spoken Out Against Obama/HHS Mandate | CatholicVote.org
At the above link a list is being compiled of Bishops statements protesting Obama’s health care mandate for religiously affiliated employers to cover birth control, abortifacients and sterilizations.
The bolded links on the list lead to letters which were to be read at every parish in the diocese. As of Sunday there are 153 out of 183 diocesan leaders who have made statements.
The Assembly of Orthodox Bishops has also made a statement representing all 53 of their U.S. Bishops, which protests the action of Obama and his HHS.
Expect more statements to be coming out as some of the Bishops get a reminder of their job function from the Vatican.
As a result of prior decisions to go along with the Government and accept grants from them, the Bishops now find themselves, and the society in which they live, in dire straits. Says Francis Cardinal George, Archbishop of Chicago: “I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square.”

U.S. Army Issues Gag Order to Catholic Chaplains
U.S. Army Silences Catholic Chaplains From Speaking out Against Obama Admin Ruling | TheBlaze.com.
Some of the Chaplains read Catholic Archbishop Timothy Broglio’s letter objecting to Obama’s insistence that religious institutions pay for birth control ( hormones, abortifacients and sterilizations, etc. ) for their employees, despite a GAG ORDER from the Army Office of the Chief of Chaplains.
These chaplains were invited to contact the military archdiocesan attorney to obtain free assistance from public interest law firms which would defend their religious freedom and first amendment rights.
Prayers for the success of the military chaplains who took the initiative to defy the Army’s unconstitutional gag order.
*Pharmer will see if the letter will be read at her parish this Sunday.

Cost Containment Includes Forced Abortion and Sterilization
The Romney-care system in Massachusetts almost accomplished forced abortion and sterilization procedures in a mentally ill female, but the initial court order has been thrown out by a higher appeals court .
The Norfolk Family and Probate Court Judge Christina Harms had ordered that these procedures could be forced upon a woman with psychotic disorders, through the use of deception and sedation.
Somehow this woman had access to legal recourse, bringing her case to an appeals court. One wonders how many forced abortions and sterilizations have been accomplished under the Romneycare system.

Health plans ordered to cover birth control without co-pays – The Hill’s Healthwatch
Obama care mandates include forcing the coverage of birth control without a copay. This will include religiously affiliated employers, which will have to comply within a year, or drop their health care plans altogether. This seems to have gotten the attention of the US. Conference of Catholic Bishops, which had previously supported obamacare against the better judgment of the pro-lifers. Of course they “had to pass the bill before they could know what’s in it,” as Nancy Pelosi has told us.
This means by summer of 2013, you might be looking for new health care coverage if you are employed at a religiously run hospital or health care provider. What is more likely is that these entities will begin coverage of birth control….. same as in Canada and other socialized medicine countries.
This Obamacare mandate reveals the high interest of leftists in sex with kiddies, the main set of people who couldn’t afford those generic BC pills.
This also feeds into the abortion industry, as the kiddies are highly non-compliant with their birth control.
Half of unplanned pregnancies are in people who were on some kind of BC.
Dependence on birth control feeds the abortion industry, says the data from long term birth control researchers such as Anna Glasier. None of the birth control modalities are nearly as reliable in real world situations as the theoretical claims put forth by the industry.
Obama is taking care of his own.
Silver lining??? It preferentially reduces the reproduction rate of lefties.
Even so, this pro-lifer is not participating.

Protest SOPA Day
Wikipedia is inconveniencing millions of students today as it lobbies on the internet against the Stop Online Piracy Act.
Pharmer is inclined to side with the likes of Google and Facebook and Wikipedia on this one. The government has created unfunded mandates for all large websites, search engines, etc. which open themselves to contributors, to monitor everything that is placed on their site, or face removal (unsearchability) due to copyright infringement.
The SOPA language is written in a way to allow the removal of any site the government chooses to eliminate. Copyright infringement does not have to be established before the sites are removed. It is damaging to business and to free speech.

Pro-life nurses win major court battle (OneNewsNow.com)
Pro-life nurses win major court battle (OneNewsNow.com).
Twelve nurses of the same surgery unit at University of Medicine and Dentistry Hospital, one of New Jersey’s largest health care facilities, have won their suit, and will not be forced to participate in abortion procedures.
Yet to be determined are the reprisals and scheduling problems which might crop up as a result of their dissent. U.S. District Judge Jose Linares says that he will retain jurisdiction over the case to monitor and rule on any disputes which might arise as the decision is enforced.
Perhaps the hospital will recognize the public relations problem of coercing participation in abortion, and allow the nurses to practice in peace.
Congratulations to the courageous nurses and the lawyers of the Alliance Defense Fund on their victory.

Ohio College Prohibits Student From Peacefully Distributing Anti-Birth Control Literature on Campus | The Blaze
Sinclair Community College supposedly has rules against students passing out literature on campus, if it is not pre-approved by the institution, and distributed by college recognized groups.
In other words…. toe the party line at Sinclair university. If you would like a little more latitude in self expression at an educational institution, consider going elsewhere.
Judge Michael Brigner is the enforcer in this particular case, involving a student who was passing out brochures concerning the link of birth control to cancer, and abortion to breast cancer.
The faculty list of the Business and Public Service division of Sinclair is very very small and does not include the head of the Paralegal subdivision, though he can be found on an awards and recognition page.

Pharmacy Owners Prevail in Court Decision on Blagojevich Edict
Illinois Pharmacy Owners have emerged victorious after six years of litigation against the state of Illinois edict compelling them to dispense the morning after pill.
This comes shortly after the approval of a new morning after pill, Ella, which is an analog of RU486, mifepristone.
Francis J Manion of the ACLJ, and Mark Rienzi, of Catholic University’s Columbus School of Law teamed up as counsel to the pharmacy owners.
Deposed Governor Blagojevich’s original order addressing individual pharmacists had previously been overturned.
Judge Belz noted that the government had made no effort to advance it’s supposed interest in supplying morning after pills to women prior to April 2010, and had specifically targeted pharmacists of conscience and their religious beliefs.
Pharmacists for Life International has stored the original letter from Blagojevich which threatened pharmacists with loss of their license to practice if they did not dispense the morning after pill and all other hormonal birth control products and contraceptives upon demand.
The coverage in the Chicago Tribune is very brief, does not mention the newest morning after pill, and does not mention that the original order to the pharmacists was for them to dispense all drugs labeled as “contraceptives” though most are misbranded. It does mention an expected (hoped for) appeal to the case.

Palin Haters Doing More of The Same
Inappropriate language warning for the video.
Here’s a nice sample of what we internet surfers commonly see from the Palin Haters. Some of it is event specific. No one in the media cries about hate speech unless it’s directed at a leftie, (or to deflect attention from one of their own when he acts out.) In fact some of the media has participated in similar speech to what is shown below.

Carolyn McCarthy Aims More Gun Control at You.
Carolyn McCarthy readies gun control bill – Shira Toeplitz – POLITICO.com.
You knew this was coming: milking the Arizona assassination, held to be so much more significant than that of Major Nidal Malik Hasan, because political figures were hit, instead of military personnel.
Leftist Carolyn McCarthy wants to make sure that crazies and criminals retain access to guns, and you don’t. That way they can kill large numbers of law-abiding citizens easier.
Another Dem, Robert Brady wants legislation to limit speech criticizing a political figure, since it might incite leftist loons to commit murder.
Since the “educators” were unable to adequately deal with, and report an obviously crazy student at Pima Community College, all of the rest of us will be expected to surrender more of our second amendment rights, and become more defenseless, dependent, and easily subdued by the government.
Remember, the other leftist, Hitler, who similarly stifled his opposition making more vigorous use of pre-existing gun laws, and a new one targeting Jews, to disarm the citizenry.
Extra update: the unarmed group which subdued Loughner. This one, related by the woman who apparently grabbed Loughner’s clip, is probably the more realistic of the tales floating about. The group of people credited in an ABC story: Patricia Maisch, Bill Badger, Roger Sulzgeber, Joseph Zimudie. Maisch’s own story differs from audio news reports, and the sheriff’s statement. She stated that ‘two gentlemen’ had Loughney on the ground before she grabbed at his clip.

O’Donnell: Where is it in the Constitution?
Just do a Search, and find out that Google is not much help on factual news.
Christine O’Donnell debated Chris Coons in Delaware today, and her question about separation of church and state has been mocked by everyone who hasn’t read the U.S. Constitution and the First Amendment.
There is nothing about Separation of church and state in the constitution. The premise of her question is absolutely correct. Go look for yourself.
There is a prohibition against establishing a state church, or a theocracy. And there is protection of freedom of religion. But there is no separation. One does not separate the religion of a person from his activities, since the religion governs the activities.
The lefties are hell-bent to strip us of our free expression of religion, and the little students have been dutifully indoctrinated by their instructors. Widener University Law Students exposed their utter ignorance of the Constitution and the First Amendment, by their laughing response to O’Donnell’s question.
Read the First Amendment for yourself:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
No separation in there.
That idea came from a letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote, Danbury Baptist Association in 1802 and which the lefties have interpreted for the purpose of expunging the free expression of religion. Interestingly, the letter was an assurance that the churches would continue to be protected from encroachment by the government.
Regarding the presentation of Creationism in the public schools: nothing is wrong with presenting that as a theory concerning how we came to be. Evolution is a theory. Intelligent design is also a theory. Pharmer posits them as equivalent theories, because no one has observed either event occurring, and both are studied and pondered as possibilities by both scientists and theologians. Creationism is a subset idea under the Intelligent design concept, which comes from a rather literal interpretation of the Judeo-Christian religious texts. It does not violate the Constitution to present the various theories of how humans came to be. It is, however a violation of the Constitution to give only one theory as educational dogma, as is done by presenting only Evolution (a theory first brought forth by Charles Darwin, who also acknowledged the Creator in his book).
Those of us read Darwin’s book and who are functional in the field of science, understand that a Theory is not Dogma, and is not to be taught as such, or it will not be questioned, refined and improved.
O’Donnell’s religion is Catholicism. It does not propound a literal interpretation of the Biblical Creation Story as dogma. It does, however teach that there is the Creator who made the universe(s) and designed humans in His own image.
Pharmer, a functional scientist who does not fear freedom of religion, recommends this for a holistic public education curriculum:
The Evolution theory should be presented along with the Creation theories of many different cultures. Let’s have some diversity.
It’s very sad that the students at Widener University, and almost all of the mainstream media in the United States are so completely uneducated about our Constitution.
Pharmer of Indiana is donating to the Delaware campaign of O’Donnell, to honor the spirit of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, as soon as they give a mechanism without requiring employer info. Found one! Sent $ for both O’Donnell and Angle.
There is a Dire need for the TEA Party and it must continue.

Anti Obama Billboard Removed After Leftie Terrorists Threaten Sign Owner
After violent threats at his business, and then more such calls to his wife from leftie terrorists, a billboard sign owner removed an anti Obama ad which had displayed in Grand Junction Colorado.
The billboard showed Obama as characters of issues which his administration has mishandled, a terrorist, gangster, a mexican bandito, and a homosexual.
The identity of the person who actually created and ran the billboard ad is not given.
Historically leftists hold at least four top world records for killing those who oppose their views.

Pastors Need Not Fear IRS
David Barton, of the Wallbuilders believes, with good reason, that the IRS will not attempt to remove tax exempt status from these churches because they know they’ll lose in court.
By laying low, the IRS hopes to keep most pastors living in fear of them so as to allow only the more bold leftist pastors to exhort their congregations to political activism.

Supremes Undo McCain Feingold Restrictions
In a five to four decision, the Supreme Court opened up free political speech to everyone, once again giving special interest groups, and corporations, (and pro-lifers) equal footing with the media and unions.
This naturally has the side most favored by media and unions up in arms, wanting to hold congressional hearings to review the Supreme Court decision, and planning new legislation to put themselves back in the position of advantage.
It will be interesting to see how this opens up the political expression in churches, which was heretofore limited to Jeremiah Wright and the renegade Fr. Michael Pfleger. This has been suppressed since the Johnson administration, when the IRS took it upon itself to adopt a new regulatory condition for non-profits.
See the entire court decision posted at Breitbart’s Big Journalism .
