it won't get past the Senate or the President, though.
still... it's a little wacky to say "even in emergency situations, i can just let you die because i'm morally opposed."

eeeeeeek.

Yes Lilly altho, my disclaimer is that it was the "death panel "lie" not just from the Tea party, about people being turned down for medical attention, because of government interference, yet here we are with more or less a situation, JUST for WOMEN.by religious people. How is that right?

organized religion has never really been a friend to women, at least that's my opinion.
but they can justify it by saying "GOOOODDDDDDDDD says this is right" -- how do you argue with God? =p

Because it only inconveniences women who've had sex, and God hates those.

its always been a major problem for me

and instead of getting better, its getting more restrictive, which is fine in the BDSM sense(yummy restriction) but with womens lives not so much.

In late 2009, an Arizona bishop excommunicated a nun who authorized an abortion procedure for a woman who otherwise might have died of pulmonary hypertension at a Catholic hospital in Phoenix.

Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.) said she personally faced a situation in which an abortion was medically necessary.

"I was pregnant, I was miscarrying, I was bleeding," she said on the House floor Thursday. "If I had to go from one hospital to the next trying to find one emergency room that would take me in, who knows if I would even be here today. What my colleagues on the other side of the aisle are trying to do is misogynist."

Despite a strong showing in the House, the bill is unlikely to pass in the Democrat-controlled Senate, and the White House said on Wednesday that President Barack Obama will veto the legislation if it ever reaches his desk.

"The Administration strongly opposes H.R. 358 because ... the legislation intrudes on women's reproductive freedom and access to health care and unnecessarily restricts the private insurance choices that women and their families have today," the White House said in a statement.
