Blunt Amendment Vote: Contraception Measure Fails In Senate

Thursday, March 01, 2012



"This is just the beginning," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said on the Senate floor before the vote. "If the government is allowed to tell people to buy health care, it won't stop there. I wonder what's next? This isn't about one particular religion -- it's about the right of any American to live out their faith without the government picking and choosing which doctrines they're allowed to follow."

That's right, Mitch. It should be business owners picking and choosing what doctrines their employees are allowed to follow. That's a much better system.

What a tool.
