A friend said this morning, ” I never thought I’d be this disappointed that healthcare reform was passed.”  I quickly chimed in with a me too followed closely by a slew of mutual friends.

I’m really, really angry that healthcare reform is being carried forward at the expense of women’s civil liberties.  I’m really angry that the Catholic Church played a role in our government- where is the separation of church and state?  The Stupak ammendment bans abortion coverage from any plan that gets any government subsidy.  This is further than the Hyde Amendment and will impact many, many more women.
