<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">From the party of small government, and the party of the “patient doctor relationship,” comes a new bill which places big government squarely in the middle of your patient doctor relationship.
It’s called a “wrongful birth” bill and it’s all about preventing women from having an abortion, even if it kills them. The Arizona Senate passed a bill this week that gives doctors a free pass to not inform pregnant women of prenatal problems because such information could lead to an abortion.
In other words, doctors can intentionally keep critical health information from pregnant women and can’t be sued for it. According to the Arizona Capitol Times, “the bill’s sponsor is Republican Nancy Barto of Phoenix. She says allowing the medical malpractice lawsuits endorses the idea that if a child is born with a disability, someone is to blame.” So Republicans are banning lawsuits against doctors who keep information from pregnant women so as to prevent them from choosing to have an abortion.
Pardon my french but — holy fucking $hit!
<span style='font-size: 14pt'>The word “overreach” just doesn’t quite cut it.</span>
The Republicans, who supposedly believe in limited government, are trying to legislatively manipulate your prenatal care. <span style='font-size: 14pt'>They want to legislatively nullify the Hippocratic Oath. Nullify professional ethics itself.</span>
This is similar to allowing pharmacists to refuse to provide birth control because it’s against their religious beliefs, except in this case the doctor can refuse to tell you the truth about your unborn child because of what you might do with the information. </div></div>
The lunatics have taken over the asylum. Its a good job the small Govt/Freedom Republican Party is around to help stop all this madness.
...not.

Oh boy! They just don’t know when to quit.
House Speaker John A. Boehner signaled on Thursday that House Republicans would continue the fight.
“I think it’s important for us to win this issue,” Mr. Boehner told reporters just before the Senate killed a Republican measure with a vote of 51 to 48. “The government, our government, for 220 years has respected the religious views of the American people, and for all of this time there’s been an exception for those churches and other groups to protect the religious beliefs that they believe in, and that’s being violated here.” </div></div>
Is Obama forcing them to use contraception against their will? No.
By requiring all HC insurers to offer contraception, the ACA/Obamacare will <u>reduce abortions</u>, reduce the numbers of <u>one parent families</u>, reduce <u>teenage unwanted pregnancies, reduce STDs and reduce costs.</u>
These are all things the religious right and the GOP Pres candidates have argued for.
