Right. Where are those papers?
Sunday, November 8th, 2009 08:42 amThe Conference of Catholic Bishops lobbied for striking abortion services from the health care legislation which yesterday passed the House of Representatives -- and won their point. Why the hell doesn't the Catholic Church pay taxes? Extra credit question: What is it that the Catholic Church wields that so frightens congresschickens? Oh, wait, I know! "We just organized a successful campaign to crush civil rights. We did it in Maine, we can do it again."
I never did finish the petition to withdraw my baptism. That may be my project for today.
Anyhow, health care passed the House. Notice the lack of the word "affordable" in the second sentence of the second paragraph:
In the run-up to a final vote, conservatives from the two political parties joined forces to impose tough new restrictions on abortion coverage in insurance policies to be sold to many individuals and small groups.
The legislation would require most Americans to carry insurance and provide federal subsidies to those who otherwise could not afford it. Large companies would have to offer coverage to their employees. Both consumers and companies would be slapped with penalties if they defied the government's mandates.
