Washington Bill Forcing Abortion Insurance Coverage Defeated | LifeNews.com.

In Washington State, House Bill 2330 passed to the Senate and was caught up in debate with the realization that, as a violation of the Hyde Weldon Amendment, it could cost the state $6 billion a year in federal funding.   The bill would have required any insurance plan which provides maternity coverage to also provide abortion coverage.

Three Democrats bailed on the bill, and it was unable to pass by the Friday deadline.  The bill is now dead through this legislative session.

Judge throws out Charges against Pro-lifer, Peter D’Attilio

Criminal charges against pro-life activist Peter D’Attilio thrown out by judge.

Mass Resistance has been covering the arrest and prosecution of Peter D’Attilio, for the horrible crime of passing out pro-life bookmarks  at a Catholic fair in Franklin MA. Judge Steven Ostrach, of Wrentham District Court has thrown out the charges and berated the prosecutor for pursuing the case.

You will find the police report most amusing, as it is interspersed with comments from D’Attilio,  who appears to be a disciplined activist with a very orderly mind.

Thomas More Law Center is planning a civil rights lawsuit as a response to the false arrest, and six month delay of the court hearing.

Mass resistance reports that the ATF is now monitoring Peter D’Attilio for the horrible crime of passing out pro-life information. Pharmer guesses that the ATF thinks this guy who opposes killing, is a terrorist.  They have a duty to monitor bookmark distribution, similar to the duty of the TSA to check the underpants of toddlers for bombs.

Dana Goldstein: Transfer Oversight of Your Sex Life From Your Boss to the Government

via Obama Birth Control Compromise Defuses Religion Issue – The Daily Beast.

Above linked is an address in favor  of Obama’s new shell game “solution”  to the fight with the religious people of the United States.

It’s just as bogus and unsustainable  as the rest of Obamacare.  Instead of forcing the religious institutions to pay for birth control, abortive drugs and sterilizations, he moves the cost to the insurers, which in turn move the cost back to the employers.  The only change is that the employers do not have to speak to their employees about birth control.   Obama is still making businesses sell specific products,  and making the citizens pay for those products.    UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

Pharmer is  laughing at Dana Goldstein, of the Daily Beast, who think’s its not rational that a woman’s boss has influence over her sex life. She does think it’s more rational that the influence be transferred to the Government.

There are two to three generations of lefties completely convinced that there is a right for humans to have sex, and that someone else should have to fund the activity and the results: erectile dysfunction meds, birth control, sexually transmitted diseases, infertility, child birth, abortions, etc. I think that human rights end where another human begins. Sex involves two people at least, and can make more.

From the Pharmer comes a more libertarian viewpoint. Why can’t people assume more responsibility for their own behaviors and consequences?? The total cost of health care would go down if people knew that they had to take care of their own sex life and its results.

Third party payment is what has made the cost of health care (and education too) skyrocket, with no return on the extra investment. People are almost never good stewards of other people’s money.

Consider this novel idea… people delay sex until they can foot the bills. Birth control should be paid for in cash, and the same for sex enhancers and drugs for erectile dysfunction. People can enter their choice of insurance pools for to soften the expenses for complications of reproduction. That can be handled in a way similar to dental or life insurance. The cost of reproductive health care would plummet.

Certainly this would not appeal to the lefties who are used to trading in all their other freedoms in order to have sex with people they don’t even like, (or with children).

Maybe those who are interested in freedom and self determination should give the idea of personal responsibility another look.

 

New York Continues to Drive Away Visitors

NYC Police Throw Navy SEAL Into Psych Ward For Claiming… He’s a SEAL | TheBlaze.com.

This time a Virginia man who is a Navy Seal was arrested and thrown into a psych ward for claiming that he was a Navy Seal.

It’s all about the gun grabbing.  New York is wild against guns, and military personnel are not supposed to pass through New York with their armaments.

Shaun Day was stopped  for running a red light. in Manhattan.   The police found a reason to search his truck and found his 9mm semiauto pistol and three magazines of ammo.

Navy personnel visited and picked up Day from the psych ward of Bellevue Hospital.  Charges against him have been “deferred”, whatever that means.

Law Enforcement Shows Fear of Occupy Mobs

» Tea Party Group Harassed by GA Capitol Police While Occupy Wall Streeters Given Pass to Break Laws – Big Government.

It’s become obvious to Pro-lifers and Tea Partiers.  Our demonstrations and rallies are heavily regulated, and suffer considerable harassment from law enforcement groups.   But these same groups have allowed the Occupy  demonstrators to routinely break local ordinances without reprisal.

Why is this?  The local police and politicians are afraid of the lefties and their supporters.  They display a similar fear of terrorists.

Berkeley Lefties Blow A Gasket: Republicans Model Bake Sale After Affimative Action

Is the Berkeley College Republicans‘ ’Diversity’ Bake Sale Racist? | Cupcakes | TheBlaze.com.

There is California legislation (Senate bills 187 and 387) which would allow Universities to consider race in the process of admitting students.   The UC Berkeley College Republicans decided to model the results of this legislation by holding a bake sale with race-based pricing structure, with Whites and Asians paying the most, Blacks and Hispanics paying reduced rates and all women getting a discount.

The sale drew a crowd of unhinged lefties who…… you know….. didn’t understand satire enough to get the point of the sale.  They’re still foaming at the mouth on Facebook and in the blogosphere.

London Riots

» If We Let the Government Take Our Guns, We’ll Have to Run and Hide Like Londoners – Big Government.

AWR Hawkins  notes that the Londoners have little means to resist rioters and looters, due to their long standing gun bans.  He’s absolutely correct. Click above and check him out.

Niccolo Machiavelli of Big Peace wonders if a drug shortage of opiates is causing the London Riots. It seems that the heroin supply there is becoming short due to massive arrests of drug suppliers recently.

Pharmer wonders if maybe shortages of other drugs are contributing to the unruly behavior: antidepressants, for example.

The US is having shortages of prescription drugs such as Pharmer has never seen before. The  UK is also suffering from multiple drug shortages. Rapid withdrawal from the shorter acting antidepressant SSRIs, SNRIs, etcetera, can cause some significant crankiness. Foggy UK is known for significant reliance upon these meds.

“Stocks of 56 drugs, including treatments for cancer, Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia, depression, kidney disease, high blood pressure, and epilepsy have now run low” says the UK TELEGRAPH today in its health news
