Editor: When the Obama Administration’s healthcare financing plan was signed into law, President Obama and Congress promised that funds under the new law would not cover abortions. This has now been proven to be empty rhetoric. Why? Because the Department of Health and Human Services has mandated that under the health care law, private health insurance plans must cover the “full range of FDA approved contra- ception” – in which category HHS explicitly included the abortion-inducing drug ella. This mandate includes a so-called “religious employer exemption,” yet the exemption is so narrowly defined that most religious schools, colleges, hospitals and charitable organizations serving the public do not qualify. Even an expanded definition of “religious employer” would fail to protect non-religiously affiliated organizations, individuals and even religiously affiliated health insurers whose pro-life consciences are nonetheless violated. This is an unprecedented attack on the freedom of conscience of millions of Americans, eviscerating their freedom of choice to purchase private insurance that does not violate their ethical, moral or religious objections. I hope all readers will contact their elected representatives in Washington, D.C., and voice outrage over this anti-life mandate. Elizabeth Sullivan Palm Harbor Anti-American impulses Editor: Regarding Bob Driver’s piece, “Afghan pullout should be imme- diate,” I agree. But it’s sad that a talented writer (Driver) is always so ready to act on his anti-American impulses. First of all it’s my understanding that the Koran burnings took place because those books had already been desecrated by persons who wrote in them, which, apparently is a no-no. Second, within the framework of a Judeo-Christian culture, respectful burnings of nonviable religious objects is appropriate. But most significant is that true religion is not primarily about objects. It is about devoting one’s self and soul to a deity in prayer and adora- tion. I have to wonder if Mr. Driver was angry when a crucifix was placed in urine and some no-talent called it art. It surely seems as if Mr. Driver feels that if hatred is directed at America, it’s fine. The Afghans who shot American officers to death from behind come from a society where violence is glorified. They, and many Reforms succeeded in 2012 session like them, applaud suicide bombing.
