  • Part II the Doomed Presidency August 2012 on August 1 An
    The Obama Timeline – Part II The Doomed Presidency August 2012 On August 1 an ObamaCare regulation takes effect that requires all health insurance carriers to provide free “contraceptive methods, sterilization procedures, and patient education and counseling for all women with reproductive capacity.” (The requirement is the result of a study conducted by the Institute of Medicine for the Department of Health and Human Services that stated, “The elimination of cost sharing for contraception …could greatly increase its use, including the use of the more effective long-acting methods [that is, sterilization], especially among poor and low-income women more at risk for unintended pregnancy.” In other words, the government is eager to sterilize young poor women. ObamaCare does not call for free sterilization procedures for men.) Employers that refuse to provide free contraceptive, abortifacient, and sterilization coverage can be fined up to $100 per employee per day—enough to put them out of business if they choose not to violate their religious principles. If businesses cancel employee insurance, they will be fined $2,000 per employee per year. According to DailyCaller.com, the regulations also “require all insurance companies to cover well- woman visits, gestational diabetes screenings, domestic and interpersonal violence counseling, FDA-approved contraception, breastfeeding supplies, HPV DNA testing, sexually transmitted infection counseling, and HIV testing without additional co-pays. The rules take effect at the following insurance renewal date on or after Wednesday.” (All those “free” benefits will of course be paid for through higher premiums.) [34237, 34924, 34927, 34946, 34951, 34967, 34968] In praising the ObamaCare rules, Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) Kathleen “no fetus left alive” Sebelius states, “…Obama is moving our country forward by giving women control over their health care.
