Here's an e-mail one of my Repug relatives sent me this morning, attempting to see the "error of my ways" and that my political ideology is a "straight path to Hell." Last I checked, there was very little concerning abortion and that the mandate was that companies must provide CONTRACEPTION coverage. This means medication that PREVENTS pregnancy before the fetus is formed.
Bloody fear-mongering, manipulative twits.
By now every American has heard of the Obama Abortion Administration's mandate to force all employers, including religious charities, to provide abortion pills at no cost to their employees.
And National Pro-Life Alliance members have been a huge part of the outcry against this abominable policy.
So much outcry, in fact, that Obama announced that he would "fix" public problem by using what amounts to juggling the books.
What Obama decreed was that while religious institutions will still have to dispense abortion pills as an employee benefit, they somehow won't have to pay for them.
This, of course, is an illusion, not a solution.
The essential, conscience-violating truth of Obama's abortion pill mandate remains untouched.
Religious institutions still have to buy plans that dispense abortion pills at "no cost" to their employees, and if they don't comply, they will be fined amounts that for many institutions could mount into the millions of dollars.
Or they can simply close their doors.
This outrageous policy deserves all the pushback it has received.
But there are two points that are generally being overlooked.
The first is that, even if you believe the phony Obama "solution" is real, it can at any time be revoked by Mr. Obama or some other future president.
The second is that, while it is horrible to force religious institutions to provide abortion pills, it is equally evil to force grocers, contractors, salesmen, plumbers, restaurant owners or anyone else to subsidize the slaughter of the unborn.
While this continues to be a hot button issue, we should not stop at banning the abortion pill mandate only for religious employers. Congress must ultimately repeal the abortion pill mandate for ALL employers.
That is why I hope you will directly contact your Senators and Congressman at once.
Tell your Senators and Congressman that you want them to support legislation to repeal ALL abortion pill mandates in ObamaCare.
You see, as long as the Obama Administration has the power to decide what kind of insurance coverage Americans must buy, it is clear they will seek to use this power in ever growing ways to force Americans to buy abortion pills.
That's why it's vital we continue the fight to repeal Obama's federal government mandate power entirely.
And why I've authorized a one million man mobilization of pro-life activists.
Already, we have reached more than 350,000 pro-life Americans with this message.
But to move Congress to act, it is urgent to reach at least a million more.
Planned Parenthood and the so-called "National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL)" have made keeping this mandate their top priority.
They know that having this kind of power in the hands of the Obama Administration has the potential to more than double the size, money and clout of Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry.
It's urgent we mobilize every pro-lifer by every means possible.
So please contact your Senators and Congressman at once.
For Life,
Martin Fox, President
National Pro-Life Alliance
P.S. The fact is, it is wrong to force ANYONE to buy abortion pills for their employees whether they are a religious organization or any other group.
Not only that, but Obama's so-called "fix" is not only phony, it can be reversed at any time by either himself or any future president.
Please help expand the National Pro-Life Alliance's efforts to repeal the abortion pill mandate for ALL employers by chipping in $5 or $10 to reach more pro-life Americans.

(100,099 posts)Why don't they start locking up priests who abuse the alter boys? Instead if I hear them say the phrase "abortion pills" (which they aren't), I'm going to hurl something at my computer monitor. Hey pro lifers - time to put your money where your mouth is. Until then shut up you bunch of filthy hypocrites.

I wouldn't want to think they were slacking off in their ham-handedness.
