In San Francisco right there, there are people who want to make circumcision illegal. They have a “moral objection” to brises. We now have one political party who would say that insurance companies must cover procedures, no matter if they have “moral objections” to them. So, if you think that insurance companies should be required to provide medical procedures, including brises, then you are with the Democratic Party. This is NOT a question of taxpayer dollars. Let me repeat, this is NOT a question of taxpayers paying for circumcision. The GOP wants to allow any health insurance company to be able to refuse medical service based on moral objections. In New York City, drinking soft drinks is frowned upon by our city government. So it’s quite conceivable that an insurance company will refuse to cover your health problems because they have a moral objection to soft drink consumption.
This is the issue that Ms. Fluke was talking about.
As Jews, I think we should chose words carefully, so I have to object to your characterization of calling Ms. Fluke a slut “inappropriate.” There are many disgusting aspects of our news media. but calling someone a “slut” is really disgusting and inexcusable.
I hope you study this issue a bit more. The Democrats are NOT trying to get more government subsidies. If you’re concerned about more government control over healthcare and life styles, then you are closer to the Democratic position.
I could go on, but as a Jew, I am always half expecting politicians to throw Jews under the bus in order to advance their own power. The Democrats are able to sacrifice our interests when expedient, and don’t think the GOP won’t jettison their love for the Jews at any moment.
