12. what a stupid non sequitur

Wall Street Journal columnist Kimberley Strassel argued that requiring basic health care for women was a slippery slope towards forcing employers to pay for “dental implants.”


Well, as it stands right now, a whole lot of dental work isn't covered by insurance companies (that should be looked at again considering how the condition of the teeth and gums are connected to plaque in the veins, etc. and its ties to stroke and heart disease) and no one has been denied the free practice of their religion so far... Just like elective plastic surgery isn't covered and isn't going to be covered by insurance already---and people still have the free exercise of their religion.

so if a woman has had a radical mastectomy to deal with breast cancer, is strassel going to holler, scream and cry like the stupid little girl she is and say that reconstructive surgery should not be covered too?

THIS IS NOTHING BUT AN ALL OUT WAR ON WOMEN AND REDUCTION OF THEM TO SECOND/THIRD CLASS CITIZENSHIP. The next thing they're going to attack is women having the vote--hardly 100 years ago, we finally got the vote and now these neanderthals want to drag us by the hair back to the 17th century.
Well, obviously they're sluts and prostitutes. Vinca Mar 2012 #1
