Birth Control is Not Right

Nor is it a right.  Scientists know the Pill can cause a mini abortion -- by preventing the conceived baby from finding a suitable place for implantation.  Of course, Catholics are going to be opposed to HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius' new budget-buster idea last Monday of mandating the Pill for everyone for free.  Who is going to pay for that?  Those of us who already pay for medical insurance initially.  But the shift in morality is actually the worst part as this plan as it would have far-reaching implications for health care funding by taxpayers in the future.  Bill Saunders at Americans United for Life called the conscience protection clause a "fig leaf" on the rule.  It's not really going to cover anybody adequately and is so narrowly defined that Catholic colleges and hospitals will not be exempt (though common sense would lead you to believe they could have a conscientious objection).
