That’s right, Arizona House Bill 2625 does nothing!
HB2625, sponsored by AZ House Majority Whip Debbie Lesko, allows employers to opt-out of certain mandated benefits, based on the business owner’s beliefs. It doesn’t authorize the firing of women, it doesn’t violate the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), it won’t deprive women of health care or contraceptive choices, kill kittens, or dictate the color of your panties.
HB2625 merely lets a business owner choose what they will and won’t pay for in the reproductive health insurance area. Contrary to the ACLU’s dishonest agitprop, the bill doesn’t, “give your boss the green light to fire you for using birth control.” It does prevent employees and politicians from forcing their beliefs onto a business owner. An employer’s rights shouldn’t be any different than yours.
Sadly, there are allegedly liberated women, freaking out that the government might not use laws to take care of their tender bits. Shocking isn’t it?
This outraged woman happily shared her personal details with Arizona State Representative Brenda Barton and everyone else on Facebook. Alvin (not her real name) can’t claim privacy rights when she’s posting the details of her period for the whole world to see.
I thought most women wanted the government to stay out of their nether regions. These outraged women are unfortunately getting false information and haven’t stepped back to look at the situation. If you invite the government, and your employer, into your “women’s healthcare” issues, don’t be surprised when the government, or your boss, wants to have a say in what you do with those body parts. This bill removes your boss and your government from your reproductive organs.
If you believe contraceptive issues are your private business, please support HB2625 and don’t use the government to force other people to pay for your beliefs.

Here’s a juicy post-Health Insurance Company Jackpot bill law (aka Health Care Reform) quote:
When buying and selling are controlled by legislation, the first things to be bought and sold are legislators. – P.J. O’Rourke
Judging by the pants-wetting fear expressed today, these legislators forgot to pay protection money to the Chicago “friends” they were sucking up to.

Here’s a great quote of the day, after the House passed “Health Care Reform (sic)”:
If you think of yourselves as helpless and ineffectual, it is certain that you will create a despotic government to be your master. The wise despot, therefore, maintains among his subjects a popular sense that they are helpless and ineffectual. — Frank Herbert

It’s official now, the Obama Adminstration has created the Interwebs Police. On the whiteouse.gov’s blog, there is now a post called “Facts are Stubborn Things” (irony alert), and it states:
There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation(emphasis mine). Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.
Um, they didn’t just tell me to report my neighbor, co-worker, family member for having an opinion on the health care reform issue that doesn’t match the Obama libtard propaganda, did they? Anyone else thinking Germany between 1933 and 1945?
I don’t think it’s what they have in mind, but I’m going to take them up on this by sending them lots of website addresses like dailykos, Organizing for America and Moveon.org. Feel free to join in and overload their email with their own propaganda.
Hat tip to @calebhowe and @jonhenke on Twitter for bringing this site to our attention.
