Hillary's Secret Plan to Fill the Government's Empty Coffers?

We have a plan 4 u.

The entire universe heard and saw live on TV two-faced Hillary's hypocritical disconnect on abortion and choice. (It's only a choice for some, but not for others.)

During tonight’s 3^rd Presidential Debate while discussing Supreme Court Justices who might overturn Roe vs Wade, Hillary was adamant that the “government has no place in a woman’s decision on abortion. It’s a very intimate decision and the government has no place in it.”

Yet Hillary wants that same government to continue its HHS Mandate forcing Americans to violate their conscience by providing abortions to those women whose right it apparently is not to have the government not allowing them to kill their child.

In other words, Hillary, a prime example of a two-faced hypocrite, double deals with the rights of the American people to make their own decision on abortion. She is resolute and unyielding when it comes to women and choice, but the Catholic Church, the Little Sisters of the Poor, Priests for Life, Catholic colleges and universities, Catholic employees and anyone else opposed to dismemberment of a baby in the womb, must be forced to violate their conscience and agree to the mortal sin of abortion or else be jailed, sued or fined enormous sums of money.

Possibly this blood money is Hillary’s secret plan to fill the government’s bleeding empty coffers?

HHS Mandate Takes Another Hit!

Well, at least there are a few sensible judges left in the country!

HHS Mandate Loses Again

Latest Obamacare Compromise: Just One More Shell Game

It's a "phony compromise!" says Archbishop Chaput:

The new rules are very complex. And they may actually make things worse. In the words of Notre Dame Law Professor Gerard Bradley:

“Gauging the net effect of the new administration proposal [is] hazardous. But one can say with confidence the following: (1) religious hospitals are, as before, not exempt ‘religious employers’; (2) religious charities are very likely not exempt either, unless they are run out of a church or are very tightly integrated with a church. So, a parish or even a diocese’s Saint Vincent De Paul operations would probably be an exempt ‘religious employer,’ whereas Catholic Charities would not be; (3) the new proposal may (or may not) make it more likely that parish grade schools are exempt ‘religious employers.’ But Catholic high schools are a different matter. Some might qualify as ‘religious employers.’ Most probably will not.

It's just one more game to pretend the administration is making reasonable attempts to come together and those hard-boiled, obstreperous bishops just won't give our good, kind president a break. Obama is determined to destroy religious liberty in this country and he will do anything he can to force the churches and people of conscience to cooperate in evil. He may not be THE anti-Christ (he's too small potatoes), but he is surely AN anti-Christ like so many tyrants before him. Pray for him and resist him!

REAL Nuns: Tlhe Little Sisters of the Poor

While the "nuns on the bus" treck around Ohio claiming to speak for the poor and disadvantaged while they work to reelect the most anti-life president in history, REAL nuns who REALLY work with the poor describe how devastating Obama's policies are to the poor. Here's what the Little Sisters of the Poor who care for 2500 elderly patients in their 30 homes say about Obamacare's impact on their apostolate:

Cardinal [Timothy] Dolan blogged about the HHS mandate and its impact on Catholic organizations and services. He is very clear about the costs of the mandate. For example, if we were to stop offering health insurance rather than comply with the mandate, we would have to pay a $2,000 penalty per employee. This penalty aside, it just does not seem right to us to stop providing health insurance to our employees. 

If we chose to offer insurance without the objectionable services, we would honor our consciences, but we’d have to pay $100 per day per employee. As the cardinal figures it, for an organization with 50 employees, that would mean almost $2 million per year. 

So if the mandate is still standing in 2014, all of our U.S. homes will be facing serious financial difficulties. To put this in perspective, we already have to make up at least half of our operating expenses through donations, because Medicaid reimbursements cover only about half of what it costs to care for the elderly in the way they deserve. So the potential fines or penalties we’re looking at just make it that much harder. (Read more...)

My mom volunteered for years at the Little Sisters' home on Maiden Choice Lane in Baltimore. We should all have a special place in our hearts for these dear sisters who love those the world considers useless. Instead of working to convince their patients to commit suicide, the sisters treat them with dignity and respect. God bless them! And it just demonstrates one more reason to vote against the intrinsic evil of the Obama/Biden ticket. Romney has promised to end Obamacare. With the help of a conservative Congress he can do it and that will make an immense difference to the elderly and to those who serve them. It isn't only about abortion.

Grooming Children for Sexual Exploitation

By Fr. Tom Collins

The HHS mandate that all insurance policies include coverage for free access to contraception,  abortion and sterilization has triggered a strong response from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. Sad to say, though, in their response to this mandate, most bishops have become so fixated on the religious liberty issues raised by this mandate, that they have overlooked a more insidious dimension of what the mandate is doing. 

Join the Fortnight for Freedom

Prayer is powerful. We live in dire times when prayer is more essential than ever. Think of the power of praying the rosary as a family every night of these fourteen days. In this morning's Mass reading, God relented at imposing a terrible prophecy on Ahab because he repented in sackcloth and ashes before the Lord. God does not desire our destruction, but our repentance. He wants our wills conformed to His! Let's face it, our nation has become a cesspool of self indulgence and materialism.

When I look at my own wimpy faith, I know I'm part of the problem. So I want to commit to this time of prayer for our nation and join some acts of sacrifice as well. Let our "patria" once again become one nation under God with liberty and justice for all -- including the weakest, our unborn brothers and sisters and the vulnerable elderly and sick.

Obama's War Against People of Faith

Tens of Thousands Turn Out to Protest HHS Mandate

On Friday at noon tens of thousands of Americans rallied in over 150 cities to protest Obama's HHS mandate including many young women opposing Obama's war on people of faith. This "occupy" movement had no hazy message, but a very specific demand that the government stop trampling on our religious freedom. This fight isn't over by a long shot.

And, while Obama tries to portray those who oppose his will as "warring against women," he's the one who champions turning women into recyclable sex objects who are always available as pleasure toys without the "complication" of pregnancy. Show me a male chauvinist pig and I'll show you a man who says, "She can always take the Pill and get an abortion if it fails." The war on women has taken a real toll on their health including the epidemic of breast cancer, often more aggressive than in the past. Why should women have to die or suffer serious illness so they can always be at-the-ready to satisfy predatory men? Wake up, women. The "sexual revolution" was no blessing for you!

Stand Up for Religious Freedom - Join the Rally

On Friday, March 23 rallies opposing Obama's HHS mandate will take place in over a hundred cities around the country. The rallies are scheduled for only one hour from noon to 1:00 p.m. Go here for the locations and stand up for religious freedom. Our country needs a religious revival. Bring your rosaries and beg for the Blessed Mother's intercession for this important event. Remember the people of Nineveh who put on sackcloth and ashes and repented. Lent is a time to repent and reform our lives. Come in penance and beg God's help for our poor country so immersed in sin and suffering.

Poor Sandra Fluke, Slumming it in Spain

Sandra Fluke is a real piece of work. She moaned and whined to a Congressional committee about how she can't afford her birth control pills the cost of which she inflated ten times. But she can afford to be a globe trotter with her socialist boyfriend, Adam "Cutie Pants" Mutterperl. The picture above was taken last year in Barcelona. When was the last time you took a trip to Spain? My husband and I camp in the good old US of A and do our best to stay at county, state, and national parks where we can overnight for between $15 and $30. And we cook in for most meals. Not complaining, mind you, I love it. But I sure don't expect anyone else to pay for anything we do. If we can't afford it, we don't do it.

But you just gotta sympathize with Sandra. After that fancy vacation she needs someone else to pick up her miscellaneous expenses. How about paying for her housing and food too and don't forget the drinks.

Talk about liberal hypocrisy! See the article here with the comments captured from Facebook. Hey, Sandra, better watch that social networking. You blew your cover! (Hat tip to Carol for the heads up.)

Phony Contraception Debate

Cathy Ruse wrote an interesting article for the Wall Street Journal titled Limbaugh and our Phony Contraception Debate. It made me wonder. Do you think the contraception debate grew out of the Democrats doing some kind of a marketing survey that found 1) they can use the HHS debate over financing contraception to paint the Republicans as anti-woman and secure the female vote, and 2) they can use the attack on the Church to secure the anti-Catholic bigots' vote? You can almost see them rubbing their hands together saying, "Hey, what's not to like in that double whammy approach?"

It wouldn't surprise me if it's all a sham, and it wouldn't be the first time dishonest liberals used lies and manipulation as tactics to secure their goals. The same thing happened when the liberals wanted abortion on demand. Lawrence Lader, the man Betty Friedan called the "Father of the [abortion] movement" sat down with other abortion activists and started NARAL to secure abortion whatever it took. One of his co-workers was Bernard Nathanson, the New York abortionist who later converted to pro-life champion.

Nathanson revealed how he and Lader made up statistics and polls to further their agenda including the outrageous lie that "10,000 women died every year from illegal abortions." In 1972, the last year before Roe, the U.S. Department of Vital Statistics recorded 39 deaths. Nobody knows how many die today because the policy is to record deaths from abortion according to the complication. So a woman who dies from septicemia caused by massive infection from leaving fetal parts in the uterus would not be listed as an abortion death. The dishonesty continues for a protected procedure used to solve a social problem. Nobody knows how many women are dying from legal abortion or the related deaths through hormonal chemicals, breast cancer and suicide. Here's an interesting article that raises some of these issues.  

Lader's other strategy was to "make abortion a Catholic issue" and vilify all those celibate old men who hated women. Ridiculing Catholics outdated beliefs appealed to the anti-Catholic element in society and to those Protestant denominations that had already caved in on the life issues. It was very effective.

Today's liberals (or progressives if you prefer) are using the same old strategies. Time will tell whether their lies work as well today as they have in the past.
