Kerry was in Viet Nam?
Who knew?
"The thing is, there are all sorts of products pharmacies choose not to carry."
My pharmacy did not carry the Hibiclens soap I was told to wash with the night before my surgery. I'm gunna suuuuuuuuue!!
Of course I think the government should keep their noses out of it, I just personally think it's hypocritical.
Hasn't the People's Republic of Massachusetts been hammering on WM on other issues as well over the past couple years? Somehow I'm not surprised it's the Mass Board of Pharmacy that came up with this ruling.
"So, you're saying you'd prefer women to "face the decision" by surgically aborting several weeks later, when the pregnancy is established and farther along. I don't see that as a better course, so we disagree on that."
I'm sure you'll find many people disagree with such a farcical handling of a real controversy. I've never met a social conservative who wanted more surgical abortions. But if it makes you happy to ignore the reality of how these things happen and what other choices could be made--well its sort of a free country--but of course once your side wins and the government is a tyrannical monster that forces its own ways on all its subjects you may have some real problems with your views, because it is unlikely that such a government will honor the views of the idiot ideologues who helped it grow to such excesses of power.
Hard to say. I've read reports of at least three teenagers dropping dead after taking RU-486, the best known story being a girl in California whose parents were not informed what their daughter was doing.
The abortion industry and the left wing press will cover this up.
I'm not saying that thousands of people will die. But it's clearly dangerous to interfere with a woman's reproductive system and hormonal balances. At least some users will die, and if were happening with some non-abortion-related drug we'd be hearing a lot more about it. But the MSM can be relied on to cover it up, and the Labour Government and National Health Services, too.
Neither will I and I agree with you that these women knew it and just were out to make a buck.
It is sad when government intrudes on private businesses and mandates asinine laws.
Welcome to communism and socialism.
It isn't a "doctor-patient" issue when the medication can kill an unborn child. These emergency contraception should be called emergency abortion pills. The government has no more right telling Wal-Mart what they can or cannot sell in their store than it has in telling a store they cannot sell guns.
You are so right! Many pharmacist do not stock the birth control patch (voluntarily pulled them after they caused several deaths) nor do they stock the birth control pills that cause a women to only ovulate twice a year, due to the health risks. And that should be their choice. This is no different!
Thanks for the ping!
I despise it.
Of course this whole thing is only making headlines because they are attacking WalMart and the nature of the product. Otherwise it is a non-story, and should remain a non-story other than to blast these women, but alas that will not happen in the MSM.
Unfortunately that is the reality of things if we can't stop this.
I agree it would be a non-story if it wasn't WalMart and the nature of the product.
"This is a doctor/patient issue."
Then let the doctor carry it.
Worth repeating.
Someone qualified should do a study on left wing activism from the bench (i.e. ordering businesses what to stock in their stores to serve the abortion mill or ordering state funding from the bench) versus right wing activits decision on the court (i.e. ordering business to ban homosexuals from the premises or ordering States to stop spending money on a program.)
Liberals are trying to much the line - theya re all activists... We should stop that lie like we stoped the "unbiased" old media lie.
This isn't about RU-486.
Thats socialist thinking.
We live in a free-market.
Isn't this exactly what you support by suggesting that Walmart should be made carry this product - just because someone is suing them to do so?
