Romney apologists are out in force and we really need to source every claim we make about the man.

1. Force Catholic hospitals in Massachusetts to hand out the abortion drug “Plan B” or close their doors?

Next week, Massachusetts will begin allowing pharmacists to dispense the morning-after pill without a doctor’s prescription. The Democratic-controlled Legislature overrode a July veto by Gov. Mitt Romney (R) to make the Bay State the eighth to let patients buy the drug without visiting a physician. The law allows specially trained pharmacists who partner with doctors to write and fill the prescriptions themselves.
It also requires hospitals to offer the drug to rape victims. Earlier this week, Romney’s administration ruled that the mandate did not apply to Catholic hospitals, touching off a furor among politicians who say the administration’s stance undermines the purpose of the law. But Romney reversed course Dec. 9 after speaking to his lawyers and said that the law will be applied to all hospitals, according to the Boston Globe.

3. Tell Boston’s largest adoption agency, Catholic Charities, they had to place vulnerable orphan children in the homes of homosexual activists or go out of business? Rather than bow to the Romney-enforced homosexual agenda, Boston Catholic Charities closed their doors. Even Michael Dukakis said Romney was wrong to force Catholics to violate their beliefs.

In the past two decades, Catholic Charities has placed 720 children in adoptive homes, including 13 with same-sex couples. The bulk of adoptive children in Massachusetts are placed by DSS, rather than outside agencies such as Catholic Charities, the agency said.

Within an hour of Catholic Charities' announcement, Gov. Mitt Romney said he planned to file a bill that would allow religious organizations to seek an exemption from the state's anti-discrimination laws to provide adoption services.

"This is a sad day for neglected and abandoned children," Romney, a possible 2008 presidential candidate, said in a statement issued while he was in Tennessee to address the Southern Republican Leadership Conference. "It's a mistake for our laws to put the rights of adults over the needs of children.

"While I respect the board's decision to stay true to their principles, I find the current state of the law deeply disturbing and a threat to religious freedom," he said.
