Bingo! That's the answer!
Rescind the mandate Ping!
Rescind Obamacare.
This is the Democrats’ first step in making universal free abortion on demand a reality.
Not to quibble, but a better response should be, "This is a First Amendment issue, and as part of the Bill of Rights, is a recognition that this is solely an issue between God and the individual. This is so far above anybody's pay grade, including 0bama's, that the only proper response is 'bug off', and don't make such a fool of yourself again."
It’s only FEBRUARY. I don’t want him to rescind the mandate now. I want him to stall and drag his feet. I want it to be a BIG ISSUE all summer. I don’t want independents to have time to forget before the election. This won’t affect anybody for awhile, so it’s not as though babies will be murdered tomorrow as a result. No, let’s drag it out so that everyone has a chance to see and hear the full horror of what Obama is doing.
Good points.
"On demand"? One wonders whose demand . . . didn't Joe Biden make clear in China that he has no real quibble with China's one-child, forced abortion, forced sterilization policy? Well, not on moral grounds -- only that one worker for four retirees might be unsustainable . . . eventually.
That’s ok. Obamacare will be taking care of those four retirees pretty soon. They won’t have a very long retirement.
Seriously, I think euthanasia will be the next non-medical “service” that Obama and his pro-death cronies will slip into Obamacare. This whole health plan is about nothing but social control.
I think it will be illustrative and heartening to see how it goes, but also disheartening when we see the low numbers of folks who are willing to suffer for being obedient to God. I pray I am wrong.
I wish the Bishops would stop using the ‘fancy’ word,abortifacients.These are abortion pills that can kill the baby during the first 7 weeks of pregnancy.
Then, the prelates explained? The collectives can speak up or shut up. Now that they're coming after you it's finally time to speak up. Thanks for speaking up. FORCE, FORCE, FORCE. Forcing "we the people", individuals to do anything is not in the best interests of a "free" republic. What about Hillarycare, Romneycare, Obamacare, TOTALITARIANCARE did you not understand? How did we get to this point?
"Everything about socialism is sham and affectation." 23.11 Ch23 Evil; Economic Harmonies; Frederic Bastiat 1801-1850
Life Is a Gift from God
We hold from God the gift which includes all others. This gift is life physical, intellectual, and moral life.
But life cannot maintain itself alone. The Creator of life has entrusted us with the responsibility of preserving, developing, and perfecting it. In order that we may accomplish this, He has provided us with a collection of marvelous faculties. And He has put us in the midst of a variety of natural resources. By the application of our faculties to these natural resources we convert them into products, and use them. This process is necessary in order that life may run its appointed course.
Life, faculties, production in other words, individuality, liberty, property this is man. And in spite of the cunning of artful political leaders, these three gifts from God precede all human legislation, and are superior to it. Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place. Frederic Bastiat - The Law
Seriously, I think euthanasia will be the next non-medical service that Obama and his pro-death cronies will slip into Obamacare.
Exactly. Not a long retirement after they've drained your bank account to pay for your "free" state-controlled healthcare. Useless eaters will not be around long once their money runs out.

On the demand of every individual feminist woman who want s to kill a pre-born baby.
I wasn’t clear enough — I was wondering when it would be the demand of the gov’t, regardless of the wishes of the mother . . .
Never. Their constituency is women who want control over whether a pre-born baby lives or dies.
