The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Standing up to protect Religious Freedom is ALWAYS right --- it is a freedom guaranteed by the US Constitution and recognized by the International Declaration on Human Rights.

Catholics won a "partial victory" on this issue --- our next goal MUST be to either convince the Catholics who hold elective office to actually vote like a REAL Catholic or replace them with Catholics who will publicly uphold and vote on legislation that is consistent with Church teaching.

‘To Stop the Multiplication of the Unfit’

‘To Stop the Multiplication of the Unfit’
by Michelle Malkin
Creators Syndicate
Copyright 2012


If you aren’t creeped out by the No Birth Control Left Behind rhetoric of the White House and Planned Parenthood, you aren’t listening closely enough. The anesthetic of progressive benevolence always dulls the senses. Wake up.
When a bunch of wealthy white women and elite Washington bureaucrats defend the trampling of religious liberties in the name of “increased access” to “reproductive services” for “poor” women, the ghost of Margaret Sanger is cackling.

As she wrote in her autobiography, Sanger founded Planned Parenthood in 1916 “to stop the multiplication of the unfit.” This, she boasted, would be “the most important and greatest step towards race betterment.” While she oversaw the mass murder of black babies, Sanger cynically recruited minority activists to front her death racket. She conspired with eugenics financier and businessman Clarence Gamble to “hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities” to sell their genocidal policies as community health and welfare services.

Outright murder wouldn’t sell. But wrapping it under the egalitarian cloak of “women’s health” — and adorning it with the moral authority of black churches — would. Sanger and Gamble called their deadly campaign “The Negro Project.”

In other writings, historian Mike Perry found, Sanger attacked programs that provided “medical and nursing facilities to slum mothers” because they “facilitate the function of maternity” when “the absolute necessity is to discourage it.” In an essay included in her writing collection held by the Library of Congress, Sanger urged her abortion clinic colleagues to “breed a race of thoroughbreds.” Nationwide “birth control bureaus” would propagate the proper “science of breeding” to stop impoverished, non-white women from “breeding like weeds.”

Speaking with CBS veteran journalist Mike Wallace in 1957, long after her racist views had supposedly mellowed, Sanger again revealed her true colors: “I think the greatest sin in the world is bringing children into the world — that have disease from their parents, that have no chance in the world to be a human being practically. Delinquents, prisoners, all sorts of things just marked when they’re born. That to me is the greatest sin — that people can — can commit.”

Sanger also elaborated on her anti-Catholic animus, telling one of Wallace’s reporters that New York Catholics had no right to protest the use of their tax dollars for birth city birth-control programs: “(I)t’s not only wrong, it should be made illegal for any religious group to prohibit dissemination of birth control — even among its own members.” When Wallace pressed her (“In other words, you would like to see the government legislate religious beliefs in a certain sense?”), Sanger laughed nervously and disavowed the remarks.

Fast forward: Five decades and 16 million aborted black babies later, Planned Parenthood’s insidious agenda has migrated from inner-city “birth control bureaus” to public school-based health clinics to the White House — forcibly funded with taxpayer dollars just as Sanger championed.

Several undercover stings by Live Action, pro-life documentarians, have exposed Planned Parenthood staff accepting donations over the years from callers posing as eugenics cheerleaders who wanted to earmark their contributions for the cause of aborting minority babies. “We can definitely designate it for an African-American,” a Tulsa, Okla., Planned Parenthood employee eagerly promised.

What has cheap, easy and unmonitored “choice” for poor women in inner cities wrought? Nightmares like the Philadelphia Horror, where serial baby-killer Dr. Kermit Gosnell and his abortion clinic death squad oversaw the systematic execution of hundreds of healthy, living, breathing, squirming, viable black and Hispanic babies over 4 decades — along with several minority mothers who may have lost their lives in his grimy birth control bureau.
City and state authorities looked the other way while jars of baby parts and reports of botched abortions and infanticides piled up. Beltway Democrats who now bray about their concern for “women’s health” were silent about the Gosnell massacre and countless others like it in America’s ghettos. Why?


The Obama administration is crawling with the modern-day heirs of the eugenics movement, from Planned Parenthood golden girl Kathleen Sebelius at the Department of Health and Human Services to the president’s prestigious science czar John Holdren — an outspoken proponent of forced abortions and mass sterilizations and a self-proclaimed protege of eugenics guru Harrison Brown, whom he credits with inspiring him to become a scientist.

Brown envisioned a government regime in which the “number of abortions and artificial inseminations permitted in a given year would be determined completely by the difference between the number of deaths and the number of births in the year previous.” He urged readers to “reconcile ourselves to the fact that artificial means must be applied to limit birth rates.” He likened the global population to a “pulsating mass of maggots.”


Listen carefully as this White House dresses its Obamacare abortion mandate in the white lab coat of “reproductive services” for all. The language of “access to birth control” is the duplicitous code of Sanger’s ideological grim reapers.

when mankind starts defining morality via legislation a bunch of psychotropic drugs and mood enhancers show up as TV commercials.......


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Legislators should uphold and vote on what is constitutional and good policy for ALL AMERICANS and shut his
eyes to their religion.

I don’t get it.
February 11, 2012 at 11:21 pm by Philip Morris

The furor over rules requiring birth control and family options as part of health coverage requirements just goes over my head.

Not only have many states had similar requirements for many years, but the institutions affected, religiously sponsored but not sacred organizations, seem hell bent on isolating themselves from the larger world.

I understand an institutional principal as something asked of the advocates of that institution. Is it not the individual person affected who must decide their beliefs? If a person has decided to follow the Catholic church’s teachings on birth control, then what difference would it make if contraception was covered under insurance? That believer would not use those insurance benefits. On the other hand, a Greek Orthodox teaching at Notre Dame is able, within his or her belief structure, to access insured birth control benefits The teachings are based on the acceptance of believers not based on the imposition of that belief on all.

The separation of church and state is personal. The state should not be letting church positions affect non believers. Doesn’t that seem fair and correct? Churches themselves are not obligated to this broader public health mandate, but the institutions they sponsor, almost always beneficiaries of tax-exemption or government reimbursement of some sort, should be. That just seems right.

This is entirely an election year event.

On CNN this morning, I learned that if you price a policy WITH birth control, or WITH OUT birth control coverage...
The policy that includes birth control coverage COSTS LESS than the one with out it.

Preventing unwanted pregnancy SAVES MONEY!

Since no one is forced to use birth control, everyone wins. (everyone except the zealots who want to force their
agenda on others)

of course......insurance is practically LEGISLATED straight from our elected.....it's pathetic.....there is no CHOICE when it's legislated.....they also legislate mandates to 'stir up' business....
it's a joke.....then we wonder why locally we end up with huge bills to pay that are passed on to the next generation......

if you dont want to work for a religious outfit....THEN DONT.....IT'S YOUR CHOICE.....SIMPLE.....

That's good stuff right there...The only one using force to force an agenda on others is the Federal Government.
