The White House’s contraceptives compromise

The White House’s contraceptives compromise

The Obama administration proposed broader latitude Friday for religious nonprofits that object to the mandated coverage of contraceptives, one that will allow large faith-based hospitals and universities to issue plans that do not directly provide birth control coverage.

Their employees would instead receive a stand-alone, private insurance policy that would provide contraceptive coverage at no cost.

Under this proposal, objecting nonprofits will be allowed to offer employees a plan that does not cover contraceptives. Their health insurer will then automatically enroll employees in a separate individual policy, which only covers contraceptives, at no cost. This policy would stand apart from the employer’s larger benefit package.

The babykillers are outraged.

Why should they be upset?  They are still getting to kill their babies at no cost to them, they are just shifting the cost to the insurance company.

Of course we all know that the insurance company is still going to get their money from the employer one way or another.   They can say it is a stand-alone policy, but how could it be proven?

I too was puzzled by the outrage.  Looks like paper shuffling to me.

Huge deal if Obama caves on #birthcontrol. We are talking millions of women in colleges, universities, hospital employment & dependents.—

Does my heart good every time the liberals get bitch slapped by their lord and master.

Mine too.  It's a relatively small thing, but I like the sound of a dumb liberal getting thrown under the bus.

women depend on ochooma to keep from getting knocked up?

How about exercising a little self control and oh, I don't know, maybe tell the man "NO", or at least slap a rubber on it, but stop expecting me to pay for your good times you stupid slut.
