Right Wing Leftovers

  • The ACLJ calls Arizona’s anti-immigration law “sound and constitutional” and “plans to file an amicus brief in support of defending the law.”
  • The Family Research Council says there is only one option for Obamacare: Repeal!
  • On a related note, groups that fought abortion coverage in health care reform are now using a provision in the bill to try and limit abortion coverage by private insurers.
  • Along with Fred Barnes, Marco Rubio addressed the Florida Family Policy Council dinner, which also honored Don Wildmon of the American Family Association.
  • Bill Donohue has gotten into a tiff with the National Catholic Reporter, which called him “a buffoonish bully, a carnival barker posing as a defender of the faith.”
  • Finally, the quote of the day from Focus on the Family’s Glenn Stanton lamenting the 50th anniversary of the birth control pill:  “The arrival of the Pill was supposed to have Andromeda unleashed from her chains, as its proponents told she would be. But maybe the proper analogy is not woman becoming unfettered from the chains of her biology, but rather her trading the God-given power of her femininity for the lie of thinking she will find happiness if she approaches sexuality more like a man.”
