Obama's accommodation...
Original scenario: "You're going to hang. Bring your own rope from home and give it to us to put around your neck."
New scenario: "You're going to hang. We're sending someone to the store to buy the rope. Hand over the money to pay for it."
And you notice pregnancy is now considered an illness. That's what they mean when they refer to Women's Health issues. Good Lord, how much garbage and double talk can we stand? I wish our Bishops would have taken a stand 3 years ago. GB johnofthecrumbs
I love the analogy. I was thinking of an analogy that a liberal might find easier to relate to. Consumer A, an animal rights activist, believes it is unconscionable to buy tuna from fishermen who kill dolphins in the course of harvesting tuna. The Governments imposes a regulation requiring all consumers to buy tuna only from those fishermen who kill dolphins. Consumer A protests this unwarranted restriction on individual rights. The government relents. Consumer A can now buy tuna from whoever they want. All fishermen must, however, now kill dolphins when they harvest tuna. Oh, and by the way, everyone must buy tuna.
