The New York Times has a full-page ad in its print edition today that should elicit protests around the nation (but likely won’t).
The photo of the woman at top is that of Margaret Sanger-idol of the pro-choice movement (and the founder of Planned Parenthood) who -- this has been all but erased from the panegyrics to her greatness -- was a proponent of eugenics. She was, in the words of Arina Grossu a “racist, eugenicist extraordinaire” whose role in pushing these Nazi-like laws resulted in more than 60,000 sterilizations of vulnerable people, including people she considered ‘feeble-minded”, “idiots” and “morons.” She also spoke to KKK women’s groups.
But what is worse is this line from the ad: All-male, All-Roman Catholic Majority on Supreme Court Puts Religious Wrongs over Womens Rights.

Sure. Where is their outrage over the explicit exemption granted from 0bamacare to the “religion of peace”?
Our forefathers came here for freedom of religion, not from religion.
I wonder if this group would support requiring Muslim companies to provide insurance? or having their employees to sign up for health insurance?
I am Catholic and the fact that the feminazi’s are upset with us makes me proud!

Catholics are in the cross hairs after the Hobby Lobby case verdict.
Well, maybe some pro life group needs to collect some cash and take out a full page ad in the Times.
What do u think a full page costs?
This is what the left does. They distort and outright lie about the facts, to get to their predetermined talking points.
A case dealing with which particular birth control devices are mandated to be paid for, becomes, in the minds of the left, a case of tyranny if the decision is that employers do not have to cover certain devices. It is considered tyranny by the left if there is not a requirement that all of this birth control be paid for. The left perceives any actions which don’t comport to liberal views as somehow turning back the clock, or turning America into a theocracy. This shows how twisted and demented their minds are, to draw such conclusions from this case.
Anywhere, does the left address the law at hand, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act? That law was passed when Democrats controlled Congress in 1993, and signed into law by a good Democrat, Bill Clinton.
Does the left have any vitriol for the Democrats who gave us that law? Chuck Shumer was a sponser of that law. Yet he’s a reliable liberal. Why aren’t they going after him? Why not after Clinton for signing this allegedly evil legislation? Where’s the intellectual honesty on the left?
Catholics are in the crosshairs most of the time.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen said:
“If I were not a Catholic, and were looking for the true Church in the world today, I would look for the one Church which did not get along well with the world...
“...if the Church is unpopular with the spirit of the world, then it is unworldly, and if it is unworldly it is other worldly. since it is other-worldly, it is infinitely loved and infinitely hated as was Christ Himself.”

When we took out an obituary space in the early ‘80s it was $85, if I remember.
I’d hat to see the price of a full ad right now
This was covered by Planned Parenthood and taxpayer dollars, to some degree, I’d imagine.
As well as being scurrilous and obnoxious, this ad is woefully stupid and misinformed.
1. Hobby Lobby does not “Ban” contraceptives. It pays for 16 of the 20 “pills” available, condoms, shields, spermicides, etc. The only pills they do not pay for are the four that are abortifacients.
2. Anyone who wants those “Morning After” pills can just pay for them if they are so important to them. Hobby Lobby need never know about it.
3. EVERY Insurance Plan has “Formularies” which designate which medications they will or will not pay for. If your doctor truly wants to prescribe a medication that is not covered, he or she can request an “override”. The Insurance Company can either refuse or grant the override. It has nothing to do with religion.
4. Hobby Lobby’s Family owners are Not Roman Catholic. They are Evangelicals. They are not against Birth Control. They are against ABORTION, which they consider MURDER. This is more common among Evangelicals than most people realize. However, we Evangelicals owe The Roman Catholic Church a debt of gratitude for being the Standard Bearers in the Pro-Life Movement. They also get most of the flack.
5. Margaret Sanger, their “hero” was a racist, and a guest speaker for at least one KKK rally. Her eugenics theories were shamefully employed in the USA in the 1920’s and were an inspiration to the Nazis. This little tidbit came out during the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials.
6. And, finally, the Original Suffragettes and Women’s Rights Advocates were Anti-Abortion. They correctly viewed abortion as violence against women and children. This fact is borne out by one of the largest Pro-Life organizations being named after Susan B. Anthony.
“Cafeteria” Catholics who pick what they want to profess in Catholic beliefs and leave out what they don’t like.
Here you go:
Jan 4, 2014 - A full-page ad in Saturday’s edition of The New York Times included the image of a ... The full page ad cost $70,000, according to The Times.
quotes by Sanger, with that same sourpuss, wearing early 20th century garb. Not a bad idea.
The truth about Hobby Lobby. Although they offer other avenues of contraception to their employees, they would not support the mandated abortion and abortifacients (Morning after pill and other products that destroy an embryo -- already fertilized.).
It's that simple because they are a closely held (family) business that believes and lives their religion in their business. They even play religious music in their stores. (And not just at Christmas!)
God bless them.
PS. This does not apply to corporations, etc. as the libs would have you believe.
Damn, am I the only Freeper to see a strong resemblance between Sanger Harris and Sandy “Mattress Back” Fluck (rhymes with...you know)?

"More than a year before the Revolutionary War, he (Madison) was, astonishingly, inquiring into ways "the constitution of (a) country" could foster freedom of belief. Even in his maiden venture into politics, he had a significant contribution to make, insisting that the new state of Virginia not merely tolerate religious differences but view each individual's conviction as a fundamental right".
The Left ALWAYS tells you whom they fear the most.
