Mahatma Gandhi on Birth Control

“It is my certain conviction that no man loses his freedom except through his own weakness.”

“Contraceptives are an insult to woman hood. The difference between a prostitute and a woman using contraceptives is only this that the former sells her body to several men, the latter sells it to one man. Man has no right to touch his wife so long as she does not wish to have a child, and the woman should have the will-power to resist even her own husband.” – Mohandas K. Gandhi (H, 5-5-1946, p. 118)

Ms. Fluke, Mahatma Gandhi had a lot to say on birth control. Certainly he would have had the left-gurls’ panties in a wad, and if he had been on talk radio, your side would have been going after his advertisers.

Some Leftists are Unteachable, They Must be Defeated Politically

Gingrich Slams Media on Limbaugh Focus.

With Extreme, brainwashed Leftists such as David Gregory, of Meet the Depressed, there is no compromise. This man has demonstrated that he cannot take in a new idea that deviates from his narrow template of memorized dogma.

Rush Limbaugh has provided a good deal of live air time for conservatives to express the real issue behind the HHS mandate, which has nothing to do with access to birth control, and everything to do with attacking religious freedom of pro-life people.

Click above and read Newt repeatedly explaining that women have easy access to birth control now, and that the HHS mandate is for the sole purpose of forcing religious people to violate the ethical tenets of their faith. Witness the unresponsivness of Dick Gregory, and evaluate whether he could be trusted to present any issues reliably.

This is an issue for people of any faith, since your religion could be next, at such time when it is found to be inconvenient to the aims of the state.

No viewing of Meet the Depressed was required for this article. You can monitor the media on the internet without wasting the time viewing it, and the accompanying ads.

Update: It’s always fun to see different takes on the media personalities and their modes of operation. The Anchoress has an idea that Gregory might be our man on the inside because he gave Newt his minutes of uninterrupted air time.

One of Pharmer’s more interesting radio interviews involved a host who asked the whole line of left-style questions on the pharmacist conscience issue, which is very much the same vein as this whole HHS mandate business. Pharmer did a similar thing as Newt did, and not for the first time. What added the interest is the call back from this man after the interview. His feelings were hurt by the way he had been addressed by yours truly. He said he was really on our side but was playing devil’s advocate. He had been addressed as the actual opposition.
This man seemed to feel that he had to interview as a leftie in order to have media credibility. Your Pharmer told him that he had been addressed in his assumed role, and he should view it as such.
Maybe these are our people on the “inside”. They do what it takes to stay in position. But maybe if they were not so desperate to be getting along on the inside, that “inside”, which carries so much garbage news, would no longer exist.

After What They Did to Palin, Lefties are Whining

Call a Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaambulance!

Lefties whined when Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown University Law student, was refused an opportunity to tout birth control and the desire to have it funded by others, at a hearing on the constitutionality of Obama’s HHS mandate.

Rush Limbaugh has seized the opportunity to give the grrls a taste of their own medicine.

He said that if tax payers have to pay for that law student to have sex, they should be able to see videos of it. He compared Ms. Fluke to a prostitute, for wanting the money from others in order to have sex, and likened the tax payers to johns.

What is it when a woman expects money for conducting her sex life? Rush made a reasonable analogy. Leftists are now shrieking about his disrespect for women.

What have they been doing to Sarah Palin since 2008, though she has never made such a request from others, and has comported herself with dignity?

What are they doing when they deny female patients the right of informed consent about birth control and abortion? What are they doing when they enable and support the sex selective abortions of girls? What are they doing when they oppose efforts to upgrade abortion facilities to at least the standards of veterinary clinics?

Rush has tweeked the media again, as he did when he invented the term feminazi. This is a sustained action tweek, which will pay off in much free media exposure of Lefties’ insane expectation that others be forced to pay for their recreational drugs.

Update *Over the weekend, Rush relented and apologized for some of his terminology used to describe Ms. Fluke. Congressman Darrell Issa is in no mood for apology, as his female staffers are enduring much worse vitriol because of his hearings on the constitutionality of the HHS mandate.

** Jimmy Castor Bunch experiences revival of their 40 year old hit: Troglodyte, thanks to Rush. Think of the Georgetown ladies going back to the barefoot and pregnant state, if they can’t get taxpayers to fund their birth control.

Biden (Gaffe Machine): We “Screwed Up” Conscience Issues in the Mandate

Biden: We "Screwed Up" Conscience Issues in the Mandate | LifeNews.com.

What’s the current state of Obama’s HHS mandate to force insurance companies to cover birth control / abortifacients /sterilizations?

Life News kicks a comprehensive article off with Biden’s admission that the initial mandate was a screw up, and that he didn’t do his job. He’s not smart enough to know that the insurance mandate in its current form is equally as bad, and equally unconstitutional. He’s also not smart enough to know how many religiously run health care institutions offer self insured employee health care coverage. Yes, Biden is a gaffe machine in word and in deed.

Other highlights: Blunt amendment has been tabled and it is coming around again under a new name: Respect for Rights of Conscience Act.

In the house, The Fortenberry bill is the most well supported remedy to overturn the HHS amendment.

There are even some Democrats who have seen the light, and understand that Obama’s egregious violation of the First Amendment, is a negative drag on their efforts for reelection in 2012.

Boston Catholic Insider: Romney Lied About Catholic Hospitals Voluntarily Giving out Plan B

Boston Catholic Insider.

Linked above is an extensive article and information from the Boston Catholic Insider on the process by which the Catholic Hospitals of Massachusetts were coerced to give out the morning after pill to rape victims.
It includes a detailed chronology of events, and is worth your time to read.
Romney appears capable of a similar kind of bait and switch that Obama has done to the Catholic Bishops with his birth control/ abortion / sterilization mandate.

Here’s an 12/2005 article from the Pilot Catholic News about Romney’s announcement that his morning after pill mandate applied to Catholic hospitals. Romney had previously stated that religious hospitals would be exempted by a 1975 law that provided protection for conscientious refusal to distribute birth control or participate in abortion. He later decided that there was no such shield, and demanded that the Catholic hospitals comply with the birth control mandate.

Republicans Slam Media for Birth Control Question

Obama’s position (to the left of NARAL) opposing the Illinois Born Alive Infants protection act, is being softened and spun by the media into a protection of Roe V Wade.

The legislative record of Obama while in Illinois shows his vehement opposition to protecting the lives of babies born alive, prematurely or after failed abortion attempts, or induced early deliveries.

See for yourself: It’s been assembled since the 2008 presidential campaign, HERE!.

Obama’s Contraception Cram-down: The Pork Precedent « Public Discourse

Obama’s Contraception Cram-down: The Pork Precedent « Public Discourse.

This analogy between faithfulness to the religious restrictions against eating pork, and that against artificial birth control / abortion / sterilization is particularly apt, because it shows governmental coercion, and management which is closely analogous to the Obama mandate, and his so-called compromise.

Followers of ANY religion, and those concerned with personal liberty would be well served by taking the time to read Michael Stokes Paulsen’s analysis.

On the Relationship Between Obama’s Birth Control Mandate and the Budget Disaster

Mark Steyn: Handing out condoms on the Titanic | budget, debt, down – Opinion – The Orange County Register.

Mark Steyn, author and political pundit who reports to us on what the rest of the world is doing, has been sounding the alarm on America’s impending economic armageddon for years.

He notes now the relationship between the three years of failed un-budgets, and the latest idea to further drive us unto insolvency by cutting the U.S. population.

Birth control, chemical abortion, and sterilizations are already ubiquitously available, but the U.S. government sees the need to hand these out free with your money. At the very same time, most of the other industrialized nations have developed pro-natal incentives to encourage people to make more babies. They figured out that one person can’t sustain two or three non-working, elderly or disabled or unemployed people.

Either Obama is too stupid to understand this, or he’s destroying the U.S. economy purposely. Which do you think it is?

The American Spectator : The Little Sisters of Limousine Liberalism

The American Spectator : The Little Sisters of Limousine Liberalism.

George Neumayr says Follow the Money, with respect to seeking out the reasons why “Sister Obamacare” Carol Keehan, has supported the Obama shell game, moving financial management of birth control / abortion / sterilization finances to insurance companies, which still includes many self insured Catholic institutions. All of the religiously run institutions will still be paying the cost.

Neumayr notes that being a “Sister of Limousine Liberalism” has its rewards, and gives yearly salaries for a number of individuals who are touting Obamacare, and the birth control/ abortion/ sterilization mandate. Keehan herself pulls down close to a million yearly.

The Catholic Health Association hospitals under her purview also stand to recieve plenty of cash under Obamacare if it is left to continue in its destructive path.
