Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards on Bush's Latest Attack on Women's Health

[myheadphones2]

Bush is incredible, and so are some of your comments. A.K.A. idiocy.

This rule is going to cause a mess...how about the Bush government focusing on the Dow dropping 5000 points instead of trying to push this ridiculous waste of time onto the American people. Great job republicans! Keep digging yourself into deeper holes!

The Government shouldn't have to "force" anyone in a hospital to give out the correct and up-to-date information they need for any illness or injury. The hospital is not a debate on CNN or at church. The hospital is a place of healing and everyone deserves to be told all of their options.

If churches want into Government, make them pay taxes.

I've been getting e-mails about this and fighting it since August. Bush is going to get more than a show flung at his head.

Where is the proof of this? There are no documents provided either here or on the petition website. If there are truly documents backing what she's saying, I'd be willing to accept this and be concerned, but if she's just going on about something without a shred of proof, all I can think is that she's stirring something up.

This isn't just about abortion -- it also relates to contraceptives and information on STDs -- these are all very important health issues and we shouldn't be pandering to ultra-religious nuts on any issue of health.

P-A-R-E-N-T-H-O-O-D requires children.

doesn't the first amendment apply to health-care providers as well? no one is forcing you to go to a religious doctor - but why force a doctor or nurse to violate their religion? liberals are only tolerant of those who agree with them

[citydog]

The government has no right to allow healthcare providers to knowingly withhold information. We should all be allowed to be able to make our own decisions regarding our health with free access to all information, and not have *anyone's* agenda get in the way of that.

I have a fantastic idea. How about before we push your pro-abortion policies on people, Planned Parenthood stops covering up child rape and child sexual abuse?

[XprolifeXveganX]

OMG the government just said it wouldn't force people to do something, we must stop it! Mandating things for new hires is one thing, but pushing your views on (lets be honest, its about abortion) already hardworking nurses and doctors is another.

Do you really think its going to cause "chaos" or are you just saying that to tap donors for more cash?

[Dracena13]

No, it's just forcing Clinics to hire people as nurses who believe in a mythical being and fictional book over science and reality.

Not all who are against abortion are religious, just as not all who are OK with abortion are atheists...its 2009, and not the same right vs left, religious vs non-religious fight over abortion anymore.
