Sure...at the same time the GOP War On Women is putting $millions of dollars into shutting down
Planned Parenthood throughout the USA.
Great solution.  Louisiana for example, has only two PP Clinics left open.  One in Baton Rouge,
the other in New Orleans.  Mississippi has only one still surviving the GOP War On Women.

The cost of providing birth control for employers is cheaper than not providing it from most
insurance companies.  Birth control is relatively inexpensive... pregnancy and covering one more
dependent is very expensive.

There's a simple solution for all of this...and everyone ends up happy...
Make anyone who's employer does not want to offer birth control via their offered health care plan be eligible to get that benefit from Medicare/Medicaid.
it's only a prescription benefit, so it should be as simple as issuing a card to eligible women.

I have a much simpler plan... It was in ObamaCare from the start but removed by the GOP...

SINGLE PAYER OPTION!

GOP never had votes to remove anything...Not one GOP vote cast for Obamacare.  Fascist medicine is a DEM creation.

Agreed and people have the right to boycott the employer which is what was happening, I heard he is going back on the air anyways.

I agree box.  You should call your legislator that write labor laws to protect employees from being discriminated against for their political and religious beliefs.  I'm all for it!

Yes, and while we are at it, let's make sure the legislation includes protection
to prevent advertisers from pulling out because they are not in agreement with
someone's statements or because they may be losing revenue as a result!
OH WAIT....isn't that their right too?

Why YES!  We agree!  The difference is, we don't need legislation to allow freedom of association.  Advertisers can pull out, employers can fire people for religious, political, or any other belief that they disagree with.  That is actually accomplished by repealing legislation that prevents private employers from doing it.

backfire


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Suddenly Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 isn't applicable.  Not applicable for a White Christian.

Quoted from Box A Rox
Firing a host (or show) is up to the network involved.  If they promote bigots as their network values
then there is no law against it (see Rush Limbaugh).
In most cases, they are free to say just about anything they want to say...
And the network is free to fire just about anyone they want to fire.

Quoted Text
Religious Discrimination

Religious discrimination involves treating a person (an applicant or employee) unfavorably because of his or her religious beliefs. The law protects not only people who belong to traditional, organized religions, such as Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism, but also others who have sincerely held religious, ethical or moral beliefs.
Religious discrimination can also involve treating someone differently because that person is married to (or associated with) an individual of a particular religion or because of his or her connection with a religious organization or group.

OMG!  I don't believe that Cicero is serious!!!

As ill informed as even Cissy is, he usually at least pretends to be serious.  I assume that
Cissy meant this post to be a 'joke', and will treat it as such!
