I didn't think I'd say it, but Plan B has convinced me that I'll be voting |
|
for Rod Blagojevich regardless next year.
Just saw a piece on CNN about the Illinois/Walgreens/Plan B/Fundie pharmacist situation and I'll definitely be voting for Blago again next year.
If you have a religious reason to not dispense medicine, DON'T BE A PHARMACIST!!!

2. Yep, that goes for any profession. If religion interferes with the |
|
practice of your profession, time to find a new fucking line of work.
They need shelf stockers at WAL MART, I hear....

I am not in agreement with Blago on many things. (And his whole 'thing' with Elvis concerns me but is another matter altogether.) But, he is a DEM and the other Repugs running are nuts. So, the choice is a given as far as I am concerned. (I hope to g-d we don't have to listen to Topinka shrill voice for more than her year campaign!)

6. Just curious, but how long do you think a Target cashier would last |
|
if she/he refused to "ring up" Plan B because it violated her/his religious beliefs? Couldn't it be argued that completing the monetary transaction was participating in this immoral (immoral to them, anyway) act? And, really, how long do you think a cashier would last with this kind of behavior?

7. Superb question! A pharmacist's "conscience" is more important |
|
than a cashier's? Brilliant. What about a Hindu fry cook at Wendy's who refused to touch beef on religious grounds? The mind reels with the possibilites of accommodating everyone's superstitious taboos...but pharmacists - PHARMACISTS!!!! - are a special case? This nation is in serious trouble. Seriously.
