That a US federal judge decided it was time for girls of all pertinent ages to get access to the morning after abortion pill<\/a> \u2013 especially if they can do it with Mom and Mom knowing! \u00a0Well, I\u2019m not sure if that <\/i>would be a good thing, but Mom and Dad? \u00a0Screw them. \u00a0I saw the\u00a0segment\u00a0on his show on MSNBC (the one network that makes FOX News look fair and balanced by comparison). \u00a0He began the segment showing a clip of President Obama coming out in support of his\u00a0administration\u00a0keeping restrictions on the pill, especially as it could be used by girls too young to understand the\u00a0ramifications, such as health risks<\/a> that have accompanied the pill. \u00a0On a side note, let any other over the counter medication have the slightest health risk and BAM!, it\u2019s off the\u00a0shelves\u00a0in no small time.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, a federal judge has decided that any girl \u2018of reproductive age\u2019 should be able to get the pill\u00a0whenever\u00a0she wants. \u00a0A triumph says Chris Hayes! \u00a0Yes, he admitted it was a low point for the Obama administration for the president to talk about such stupid, unscientific things as keeping young girls of any reproductive age from having this wonder drug. <\/p>\n

The secular left is, well, evil. \u00a0I mean, there are other evils too. \u00a0It\u2019s not like the religious right doesn\u2019t have it\u2019s share of evil. \u00a0Fred Phelps anyone? \u00a0And it probably extends beyond simple\u00a0labels\u00a0of Left and Right, Secular or Religious. \u00a0But the difference is, Phelps doesn\u2019t have a special show on a major Cable News outlet. \u00a0Nor is he invited by Ivy League colleges to lecture, or treated as an informed guest on current events on CNN. \u00a0The evil of the Secular Left is, well, mainstream. \u00a0It\u2019s promoted, pushed, and endorsed by the media, popular culture and even our educational\u00a0institutions\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Can you imagine, 20 years ago, if there had been a push to allow girls as young as early teens free, unbridled access to a pill that terminates a pregnancy? \u00a0Even 10 years ago? \u00a0And yet Mr. Hayes devoted an entire portion of his show explaining that sex at any age and the right to abort babies for any reason is the goal. \u00a0And it\u2019s high time the President ditch the last shreds of puritanical stupidity and get with the hip times, just like our good Judge Edward Korman. Death has truly been given a holiday.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
