The Bush Administration is pushing ahead with rules so that if the twisted beliefs of a "medical professional" are at odds with the medical needs of a patient, the patient is the one who takes the hit. This is not just abortion, this is all forms of contraception.
This is enshrining a tolerance for religious bigotry. What is next, if a doctor or nurse thinks that transplants are immoral, the patient dies? Maybe that cleft palate was punishment for previous sins. That hole in a baby's heart is just God's will. And if you were supposed to see anything more than three feet away, you wouldn't have been nearsighted.
The Bush Administration has done its best, at all turns, to promote the interests of religious based intolerance and ignorance over everything else. This is of the same stripe as Chimpy's "no stem cell research" order and his view that "the Design of the Majickal Sky-Fucker" should be taught alongside natural selection in biology class.
Because of shit like this, America is being perceived around the world as a nation of heavily-armed ignoramuses.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Maybe I spent too much of the last weekend watching various versions of "Blade Runner"...but every story I read, every blog about the rampant idiocy stalking my country and planet while rich conservatards play fiddles, Darryl Hannah's character flashes in my head saying "Then we're stupid, and we'll die."
ReplyDeleteOh my word. We have got to wrestle our gov't back from these people.
