How is this a lie?

If he was repeating the priests false assertion that these are "abortion inducing drugs" while agreeing with him, then that's bad...

Didn't he rule in their favor on this case? That would imply that he agreed in their statement.

The only thing he should be saying is accurate information.

Abortion inducing drugs are a thing (not the same as the ones that prevent fertilization).

There was a story here in AZ where a pharmacist refused to fill a prescription for a lady who actually needed them because it was against his beliefs. She actually needed them because the fetus was already dead, and he refused to fill the prescription. Not sure if it made national news or not, but I didn't know they existed until this story broke.

Yeah...that story is a whole other level of terrible. Not sure how keeping a dead fetus in a person fits anyone's religious beliefs....

But while there are abortifacients on the market, this isn't that simple an answer.
It seems logical that a company such as hobby lobby ( the company the case was over) could simply state that they will only allow insurance to cover drugs which inhibit egg release and not those which inhibit implantation. That covers a very large number of drugs.

And his statement, in summarizing the case, implied that their disagreement was with the abortifacients only, yet the ruling he gave was across the board all oral contraceptives. That implies he either does not understand the function (which is scary because it means he is judging based on a poorly understood concept) or he likes the religiously weighted and inaccurate term.

Is it a tiny fetus sized clown suit? Or an adult clown suit? Is it like in the pocket of the clown suit? 😉

Ya, I thought it was pretty brain dead too.

As far as the judges ruling, I haven't actually read anything on it, but I'm guessing judges often have to rule on subjects they don't know much about. I have the same complaint about "Jury of your peers" as well... as they often have no clue about the subject matter that they're being relied upon to make sane decisions about.

The liberal organizations Mainers for Accountable Leadership and the Maine People’s Alliance are using the crowdfunding site in an effort to strong-arm Collins into voting “no” on Judge Kavanaugh.

Under terms of the fundraising deal, donors pledge money with a credit card. If Collins votes “yes” on Kavanaugh’s nomination, the cards will be charged and all donations will go to Collins’ opponent in 2020 – whoever that may be.

However, if Collins votes “no” on Kavanaugh’s confirmation the cards won’t be charged and no donations will be given to her opponent. No harm, no foul.

Collins said of these scheme: “It’s offensive. It’s of questionable legality. And it is extraordinary to me that people would want to participate in trying to essentially buy a Senator’s vote.”


This is where Trump Derangement Syndrome has led us.

If you think this whole “fundraising” campaign sounds shady, you’re not alone.

While Collins stressed that this won’t influence her vote, she wasted no time calling out this effort, saying: “I consider this quid pro quo fundraising to be the equivalent of an attempt to bribe me to vote against Judge Kavanaugh.”

The law could be on her side, though she hasn’t decided if she is going to pursue any legal action.

“I have had three attorneys tell me that they think it is a clear violation of the federal law on bribery,” Collins said. “Actually, two told me that; one told me it’s extortion.”

The left-wing rage is also being unleashed on the senator’s personal office. She’s received vulgar harassment calls, as well as a rape threat against one of her staffers, which has been reported to law enforcement.
