Coakley: The Political Gift That Keeps on Giving
by SkadiWait, what was that? Did Martha Coakley actually say that? Yes she did. Here is the quote for those who have not heard or read it,
“You can have religious freedom but you probably shouldn’t work in the emergency room.”
She was saying that about devout Catholics on Boston’s WBSM to Kevin Pittman. But it is not where she said it, or to whom she said it. It is the words she chose to use.
Where to start? The sheer arrogance is mind boggling. Is she so full of hubris that she thinks that everyone in Massachusetts from Uxbridge to Cambridge agrees with her? This is what she says off the top of her head in an interview? This sentiment is so close to the surface of her consciousness that it spills out under routine questioning? How does one pick from such a plethora of goodies that Martha has given us during this campaign.
As a devout Catholic who benefited from medical care at Mayo Clinic’s Saint Mary’s Hospital, I have to say I am more than a little insulted. The matter-of-factness of Coakley’s anti-Catholic statement suggests that she is a bigot. Is that the image a candidate for Senate anywhere really strives for? What kind of hell is it working on her press staff? Her press people had to be dying of embarrassment and frustration. How does one excuse such blatant tactlessness?
So why does Martha Coakley believe she could get away with making such thoughtless statements? I doubt she has had a real conversation about religion–or anything–with someone who disagrees with her in years. She is the kind of woman who lives in an echo chamber. All she hears is what she believes. It is easy for her to blurt out something like an anti-Catholic statement, because she honestly believes most people agrees with her. That has to be at least part of the reason why she would say something so insensitive. Plus, with a compliant media, she’s probably rarely been called out on anything she said in the past.
She is clearly out of touch. Along with living in her leftwing echo chamber, she has lost any connection to the people who would be her constituents, e.g. the folks outside Fenway Park. How could such a clueless politician get elected Attorney General? Her record as a DA and AG is beyond any logical explanation. But, that’s just the beginning of her problems.
Her statement that all the terrorists were out of Afghanistan was laughable. But, this latest smear against Catholics? It is hard to imagine a more ridiculous candidate. Is Martha Coakley looking to be the female Michael Dukakis?
Martha Coakley comes off as a person who has no idea how she looks to others. Her reaction to the Meehan kerfuffle was cold. She stood impassive while one of her aides attacked a reporter. Perhaps her reaction to the knock down is more indicative of her character than her words. What’s most fascinating is that she seems clueless that she made a complete fool of herself.
I have questions for her: If the terrorists are not in Afghanistan Martha, where are they now? Do you think the Taliban qualify as terrorists or are they just the poor misunderstood denizens of some sort of Hindu Kush Pandora? What about Catholics?
I thank you for stating we have a right to our religion but this issue about emergency room work…How do you come up with that idea? If you were looking for attention well then you got it. I do not think it is the type of attention I would want if I were running for the U.S. Senate.
In the end Martha Coakley is the gift that keeps on giving. Her gaffes rival any of Joe Biden’s in breadth and depth of stupidity. Biden has had years on the national stage to accumulate his impressive amount of gaffes. You’ve almost matched him in a matter of days. That has to be a record.

I hate to say this (you have no idea how much I hate it), but she's kind of right here.
I personally don't want somebody working in the emergency room who has problems doing certain things that may save someone's life, simply because of religion. She's not asking for a ban of those people…just stating that they probably shouldn't be working in the ER.
That being said…I still think she's a tool.
I believe that "Ted Kennedy's Seat" is about to get re-upholstered. It will be Brown.
So will the Democrats undershorts…..
Skadi,
Nice article.
Better photo.
Nothing better than a good looking conservative woman in a fur coat, holding a weapon………..
Here's to a terrrriffic Tuesday and then we start to work on California for November. Those folks are ready for a big change as well. They can not afford any more government largesse from the taxpayers. GO BROWN
MSNBC's Schultz said if he lived in Massachusetts he would vote ten times to "…keep that bastard out!" So now we know how the Democrats keep getting elected in Massachusetts!
Matt,
I don't know about this.
I personally know some Catholics, who work in a Catholic Hospital and I have had this conversation with them over the past few days. There is something called Medical Ethics. In my humble opinion, Martha Coakley is an example of Government intrusion, nothing more, nothing less. She is a harninger of things to come, if Obama passes his Health Care debacle.
The only comparison that comes to mind, would be Southern Baptists teaching Arthur Murray Dance Schools. Should that be outlawed, or legislated by some government official?
(sarc off)
He was speaking of Scott Brown as "the bastard"!
"What can Brown do for you?" Stop the health care Bill!
What is truly amazing is how we have gotten so backward? If Sarah Palin were Martha Coakley, the MSM would be running these gaffes 24/7 and SNL, would dedicate the entire show to Tina Fey. This is like watching an NFL game and the ref's are tackling people and throwing touchdowns…..The question is….how did we get here?
Such tolerance these libs have! We need to vote this type of thinking out of our culture.
Yes, you are right.
Here is the clip, from Breitbart:
http://www.breitbart.tv/msnbcs-ed-schultz-says-id...
Shultz, as a member of the MSM should be fired. His comments, on MSNBC pertain to an election, something more serious than the Nappy Headed Ho comments that Don Edwards made that got him fired.
Schutzes comments pertain to condoning election fraud.
Complacency.
That is how we got here.
The inmates are running the asylum, and the field hands have taken over the plantation.
put the kool-aid down…you didn't really say that out loud. Listen to yourself….emergency room workers save lives not take them.
Cowboy Logic,
I’m not saying that government should be intruding. In fact, I would argue very much against government intrusion.
At the same time, I believe that anyone who has problems doing something that may save someone’s life, then they should probably not be in the business of saving live.
Either way, I still think Coakley is a disgrace.
"In hoc signo vinces"
I see the SEIU individual members are backing Brown. It doesn't get any better. Tuesday night will feel like Christmas Eve.
I would tend to agree with you, on all three of your points.
Personally, I would prefer someone who has genuine compassion for patients taking care of me if I were sick. I really don't care about their feelings on abortion. Generally people with strong religious conviction also have strong feelings about preserving life. Coakley was talking about handing out "morning after birth control pills" to rape victims. Not exactly a life saving procedure for the typical ER patient.
I was at worcester yesterday Wpi the energy was electric for scottbrown. Watch for voting fraud a group in worc got a 2.25 million dollar donation. could be used to bus people around
Obviously, Coakley's IQ isn't near as high as Teddy's blood alcohol number. Please Massachusetts. Brown for Senate on tuesday. Florida is counting on you to fire the shot again.
Sorry. Make that 'first' shot.
I wonder how that's going to play with all those nice Irish Catholic voters up there. It looks to me like she hired John McCain's old campaign staff. Good for her! I've got Brown by 8%. You heard it here first.
of course abortion is not a life or death situation.
obortion is not a health risk; it is a chosen solution.
i am sure catholics in a medical facility know the difference.
when it comes to saving life i am sure they will save lives.
old movie THE CARDINAL deals with one of the worst decisions
a healthcare giver might face. altho in this movie they left it up
to the Cardinal to decide.
but what we are talking about is elective abortion and that is a huge
difference, making it less of a concern to teenagers especially who
might risk getting pregnant.
There is some humorous irony in all of this Martha Coakley brouhaha.
There are a pile of Catholics in Mass. Is she really that stupid? Insulting an entire voting block?
I don't know if she believes in euthanasia, but she just committed political suicide……..
Your point is flawed. This is not about refusing to save a live, it is about refusing to participate in an abortion. Which for us, is about saving a life.
No.
With all due respect, my point is not flawed. Read what I wrote. I agreed with Matt on all three of his points. Nowhere did he refer to abortion. He referred to "anyone having a problem doing something that may save someones life".
In my opinion, saving a life, is different than taking a life.
Catholics, Yankee fans and other religious people shouldn't be in the classroom either.
Doug,
You stated: "Which for us, is about saving a life."
Who exactly is "us"? Is "us" part of "them", and are "they" really out to get "us"? Or is "us" part of the Christian Taliban? Just curious.
In any event, there are alot of good folk who hide behind religiosity; alot of good Catholics who abhor abortion, and murder, yet all turned a blind eye to the murdering Ted Kennedy and continued to re-elect him.
It can't be both ways………
Or the voting booth, huh?
Honestly, I think I'll miss her when she (hopefully) disappears into the mist of political oblivion. Her gaffe's are a greater source of amusement than Biden's. In seriousness, though, the fact that she is nearly neck-and-neck with the conservative AFTER stories like the child-r*pe have come out chills me. Our society is turning into a scary place that I'm not sure can handle freedom much longer. A society that will vote in, or desire to vote in, someone who looks the other way after a crime that heinous does not deserve freedom.
Cloward-Piven stress desensitizing a society. So did the Russians……..
The point is mute as most hospitals have guidelines/policies for HCW's refusing care due to moral or religious grounds.
The employee is simply replaced and the continuum of care in uninterrupted. Can you point to a case where a sentinel event occurred due specifically to a HCW refusing care due to moral or religious grounds? The real problem is her ideology. Martha's statement was as ignorant and offensive as 'Irish Need Not Apply'.
I'd say she is about 5 years and 50 Botox injections behind madame Pelosi.
Actually, I think I know what she means. I mean there was that Catholic Teddy Kennedy and that medical emergency with the girl drowning and all and that didn't work out very well.
These people (liberals) think they can do and say anything without any accountability. Do they actually think we are that stupid? I guess we will find out soon enough. VOTE THEM OUT!!
Matt. Coming from a family with several decades experience in critical care medicine picking and choosing who is willing to do the job is hardly your major concern.
The younger staff are woefully under-prepared to take the reins from those approaching retirement. Whether they are second guessing a moral issue would concern me less than if they were second guessing a clinical one. The latter will kill you sooner.
And they want to expand healthcare to how many new people? And where are the finding qualified staffing for these patients? Genius. Pure genius.
And to bring back a little political sanity to Mass.
I'm quite sure he can neutralize the so called "war hero" senator Skerry.
Yes. Thank you. I did mean Imus.
I think Botox is standard issue. It won't be long before the pres. gets some in his chin to cover his anger that shows when people disagree with him.
Florida +49 others.
Do they actually think we are that stupid?
YES. Of course they do.
And the medical field-and UPS-and Red Sox fans-and………anybody with an IQ bigger than their shoe size.
She must believe that no Christian should work in a hospital. Does she want all Christians helping in Haiti to just pack up and leave? I guess if you really get down to it, she wishes all Christians would just be placed on a cross to die, so she can go forward with her secular progressive ways without interference from those damned Christians.
Or the voting booth, yes, thank you.
Martha,
Keep up the good work Ol' Gal.
Not to worry though, when you loose, Slick Willie wants to take you to Haiti…………
MAdreDeDanseurs,
Remember, this is still Massachusetts.
I think cocaine would be more appropriate for O'Bummer. That way he may feel some form of "eutopia".
I nominate Jack Kevorkian as his family Dr. also.
This reply was meant for Tablua. Another senior moment I guess.
And to think that all this time I thought thee Know Nothings had disbanded.
She obviously doesn't know much about the profession of doctors. As it is now, doctors can legally choose to refrain from practices which go against their conscience. That procedure would be delegated to a doctor who doesn't have a problem with the procedure. I would have a pro-life doctor take care of me or my loved ones any day.
I believe it may be in the form of an applicaton from a bottle to add that certain flair for showing grave concern and massive hours of stress and work. The rest of him is a sham and a concocted personna, why not that aspect?
This involves many years of the Dem playbook being honed and refined, piece by piece. It also takes an equal amount of apathy from the average voter who is slow to anger and to fill up with regret for what has been allowed to happen. I would like to think we have reached the tipping point and the change will become apparent in November.
Pretty much Murtha did it and got reelected – go figure.
According to Coakley Curt Schilling is a Yankee fan. That comment alone should cause half of MA to run her right out of the state.
I worked for Seton (as in St. Elizabeth Seton) Medical Center in Austin, Texas and those dedicated professionals in the E.R. couldn't be better professionals – or people.They were fantastic.
This woman is an idiot.
As a patient, I believe you still have the right to choose your service doctor based on whatever criteria you wish to judge them by. That may change drastically in the not too distant future though.
I guess if Teddy and Obama could talk a year ago … that "change" thing would lnto be looking good for Teddy …. Obama got his seat lost – plain and simple …..
Go Scott Brown !!!!
go to Scott Browns facebook site – a lot of pictures of SEIU members holdign Scott Brown signs !!!!!!!!
All of the above and journalism gone to hell in a hand basket where you make the news by changing the news. You have to travel with the left to be admired as a feel-good, but do nothing idiot.
She's kinda hot.
Martha,if you try to keep Catholics from working in the ER and other areas of medicine you will lose a lot of talented medical professionals, resulting in a worsening of the shortage of medical care that we already have. Do you ever think ahead?
People really need to pay attention to this election. While it seems Brown enjoys popular support, the election results may be very different. We know now that the U.S. Attorney General Office is not going to pursue any case that may put the Democratic voting machine in a bad light. How many ACORN voting cases are going no where, Black Panther voter intimidation case dropped, attempt to use ACORN to do Census work, and now SEIU buses in town. If this election bid by Brown is lost, 2010 elections will be nothing but a dog and pony show.
9 If Brown loses, 2010 elections are nothing but a dream
"How the democrats keep getting elected in Massachusetts"……….. ask ACORN, and the SEIU
…. Hanzo
Excellent!! Well said, end of debate
… Hanzo
"Christian Taliban"? Satire or oxymoron?
Doug, I don't think I'd worry about someone in an emergency room not working to save your life, especially a Dr., ever heard of the "Hippocratic Oath"?……. Hanzo
Thanks to the pic posted in the above article I think I just realised why Croakley is self-disintegrating, she looks as if she's in the middle of a bender, keeping in the spirit of the rich tradition of the Teddy K heritage…..Party on Garth
…….
All I gotta say about that photo of her is:
All hail the Great Stupid Head.
She can have political freedom but she probably shouldn't run for office!
You mean kinda' not………..
As a Southern Baptist let me be the first to say that in a free market that would take care of itself in short order
I'm not even sure what I try on a dance floor can be called dancing, but as long as the lights are low enough no one should lose their eyesight.
Yes, apparently she really and truly IS that stupid; most Dems are.
I don't know if it is still the case, but Catholic hospitals used to have the rule that if they could only save one life, when a woman in distress was giving birth, they would save the baby and let the mother die. And the government never interfered with them/that "rule" of thumb.
Government should stay out of private business and out of health services/care/insurance. It really is as simple as that!
Oh yes……………………they really DO think that we are THAT "stupid", but they are going to find out that that is no longer the case.
i think all faiths would try and save lives in the ER room.
Just curious. Are you suggesting that you're into necrophilia ?
Argh. "Field hands" and "plantation"? Can't you come up with an analogy without quite so much baggage? Not to mention the fact that the plantation relied almost entirely on the field hand, and so was pretty much beholden to slavery or indentured servitude, both of which are things we conservatives are supposed to be against. When the field hands "took over the plantation" they became tenant farmers and as such benefited both themselves and the community – the very definition of capitalism at work.
Anyway, just a half a nickel rounded down. Take it or leave it.
sorry coakley your just another obama Cornie and we are about to vote all you Nazis out of office….we live in a free country and will not allow it to be come a broke third world country…we are now broke and he is trying to spend all of our $…not going to work ….his policies are trash and his union friends are crooks …now he is trying to take over the banking system, when all this crap was caused by the liberals to start….the banks paid most of their $ back and gathiner the tax cheat even boosted the us govt made 20 million profit …what shenanigan is next???um cant wait …maybe more stimulus , taxes on oil, oh how about tax for a tax …bring it on obama …walker a free Texan ….and i will be here to the end ….i want you obama ,Reid and plosie all impeached …for robing this country and using your strong arm chigio tactics….
What? She's a total MILF. I like women with short hair and "passionate" about things.
Thank you for your support, I sure need it. I'm getting emails mocking me from as far away as Ireland. If I'm elected the Irish will not be allowed in ER's or classrooms either. Consider the St. Patrick's Day Parade canceled.
And let me leave with this final warning, Republican Scott Brown supports job creation, no massive spending, strong national security, no nationalized healthcare and he's on the Yankee payroll. MA, I think the choice is clear. Don't you filthy Mick's let me down.
Thanks Ray. Today has been rough. Got 'winged' by a sniper today, but I called in an air strike. He's quiet now.
As long as you don't want her killing someone in there, you're probably safe
thank you for that very supportive statement ROFL…..
I guess it is not Southern Baptists who are against dancing? But the other ones
Exactly. Also if proper procedure was followed and the girl has a D&C then the morning after pill would not be necessary
.
The actual comment about the ER actually made Coakley sound even more stupid, because the discussion was about conscientious objectors to abortions when she made her comment about Catholics not working in ERs…. wha … HUH?? Of course, abortions are not performed in ERs and Catholics do not have issues with other functions of the ER.
The private Catholic system of hospitals in this country are outstanding and have gotten along just fine doing things their way without Ms. Coakley's interventions, or the intervention of the heavy hand of government, trying to force them into doing abortions.
.
judging from everything I have read about the woman, and she is a cafeteria Catholic, she would more than likely back voluntary euthanasia. She obviously believes in abortion on demand, and she believes in keeping innocent people in jail whilst letting the guilty go free
what kind of idiot response is this?
Giving a woman the morning after pill is not a procedure that will save a life. If anything it will take a life. Get your facts straight.
Matt – If I understand the context of the quote – it was that Catholic doctors / medical personnel object to being required by secular law to perform *ABORTIONS* in contradiction to their faith and the objection was raised to Martha's support for the MA mandatory abortion law that Catholic hospitals should be mandated to provide abortions to rape victims. Coakley's answer was "they should not be in the emergency rooms".
I understand that rape victims are routinely given drugs to abort any (potentially) fertilized embryos.
I believe it would be perfectly acceptable for hospitals to not automatically give these drugs, but to allow the woman's doctor to do so if the beliefs of the doctor or hospital so dictate.
This is simply an extension of the Democrats continuous push for mandatory use of taxpayer money to fund abortions.
I don't see this as 'Coakley is right' in *any* way that is not politically spun or twisted beyond recognition.
Paul,
Afterthought. In O'Bummer's case it would be +56.
Glad you got through the attack OK.
And she has all of the nasty arrogance of Barbara Boxer!
I'll second that statement.
Now…if we can get Schumer to get swallowed up by the Tea Party tide in NY…if Brown does win, the domino effect begins. A GOP Majority in the Senate is not impossible…in fact, very possible.
Guess you have some major fantasies about Boxer and Pelosi then huh?
I just gave you your first thumbs up for this year. Looks (and sounds) like you really need it.

I wonder what Dana Loesch's secret weapon is…
Teddy has been sober for …what 12 weeks now…gotta be some sorta record
Now she's apparently got a flier out that "warns" people that Brown wants to make emergency rooms turn away rape victims. What a despicable, desperate tactic!
One positive thing you can say about Coakley, she's presenting her views honestly. Most other politicians would just flat out lie about their views.
Cowboy,
I'm sure you meant Don Imus. Schultz's comments are right out of ACORN's playbook
You notice his hair is sure getting grey?
How does one get grey hair, without an original thought, with nothing to do but read a teleprompter and live in Government housing?
SOMEONE FROST THIS WENCHES FACE AND FILL HER MOUTH WITH FRESH BUKKAKE. I CANT STAND OLD KNOW-IT-ALL STANKS LIKE HER. GIVE THIS BIOTCH RUBBER UNDIES SO SHE GETS A BETTER GRIP ON HER FREAKIN BROOM !
HUUF
[...] Go here to read the rest: » Coakley: The Political Gift That Keeps on Giving – Big Government [...]
I'm a Catholic ER physician. I am astounded by Ms. Coakley's lack of insight and bigotry.
Abortions do not occur in the ER. Sadly I sometimes have to provide care for women after they have had an abortion. All of my patients get the best possible care.
There is nothing in the Catholic faith that would keep a physician from being an effective, compassionate Emergency Physician. Frankly, a Catholic may even try a little harder to save some lives others find to be of less "value". The elderly or infirm, mentally handicapped, or terminally ill might be deemed to not have enough "quality of life" to warrant resuscitation or care. In the future under Obamacare, I may not be permitted to try and save those who do not fit the governments definition of "quality". Give Grandma the pill, right?
For now we all have freedom. Perhaps the goverment shoudn't work in the emergency room.
Satirical oxymoron………..
It's going to be more efficient when the Government takes over!
Even I heard them say that.
Thank you Doc.
For now we all have freedom………..
"We are just days away from fundamentally changing America as we know it"
He was honest too.
that idiotic statement by Coakley is all you need to know– that kind of rubbish comes from an elitist, arrogant attitude– there's an overabundance of that in the Senate already– so she should probably not be allowed to "work" in the "Senate room"……..elect Brown instead!
I'm afraid the question is…how the f#@k do we get OUT of here?
Matt, I think your objection is specious. There's nothing "life-saving" about administering Plan B and there's nothing "life-saving" about doing an abortion. First, Plan B is administered after a rape to prevent conception. This is most assuredly not a matter of life or death; it's a matter of personal choice for the rape victim (and there's always another way to get that drug). Second, I can't imagine a circumstance under which a doctor would need to perform an abortion in the ER. It's a surgical procedure, and except when a miscarriage is already underway, not an emergency. Either way, it's surgery and probably going to go to a GYN.
The whole point to not allowing conscience exceptions is to drive out those who don't think the right thoughts. Refusing conscience exceptions is an outrageous expansion of state power and completely inappropriate in a free society.
I was waiting for someone to make this point. Brown's proposed amendment to the 2005 legislation would have simply extended this existing policy to a new and similar situation. The amendment was written in a way that would require a procedure be in place to take care of these patients either with another staff member or another facility at no additional cost to the patient. It was a pretty good solution. When it didn't make the cut, Brown still voted for the legislation.
Dave — her honesty shows her to be clueless and somewhat bigoted. So, in that way, I am grateful for her honesty.
Her brain.
brown wins by a sizable margin, much larger than the polls indicate….
Hopefully you are right. A margin large enough to preclude any challenge. Also to negate the effect of all the absentee ballots. I understand there are quite a few of those.
Contact an ACORN employee (or "volunteer" as they call it) and offer to vote in the MA race. Doesn't matter where you live. They'll probably send you an absentee ballot if they think you are a Dimocrat. Then place an illegal vote for Brown. Dims do it all the time. Should work here for us. You know the AG won't look into any illegal votes, even if for Brown. (Use a prominent alias like "Obama" or maybe your dog.) If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. On my way to voluteer at my local ACORN office now. Maybe we can fight them from within.
Stick a microphone in a libs face and they think it is a dream come true, they are on camera with their liberal media buddies. They just can't help themselves! They love to hear themselves talk so much they can't stop. They are so used to no one really listening to what they are actually saying, just a sea of bobbing heads, they continue to spout what ever comes into their vacuous little skulls. The more liberals talk, the more that gets reported here, the better educated the electorate. By all means continue to educate us Coakley.
.
The actual comment about the ER actually made Coakley sound even more stupid, because the discussion was about conscientious objectors to abortions when she made her comment about Catholics not working in ERs…. wha … HUH?? Of course, abortions are not performed in ERs and Catholics do not have issues with other functions of the ER.
The private Catholic system of hospitals in this country are outstanding and have gotten along just fine doing things their way without Ms. Coakley's interventions, or the intervention of the heavy hand of government, trying to force them into doing abortions.
.
Matt, what certain things would that be? I hope your post was merely a hastily written statement that was not well thought out. Please enlighten us. Have you ever been under the care of an ER doctor when your life was hanging by a thread?
the Dem party is full of know-nothings. It is historical.
what have you been ingesting through the nose?
"WHAT CAN BROWN DO FOR YOU?"
Because even that is too much stress for the pretender-in-chief.
Connie my dear, California will not be the only state/election we work on. This is a National referendum on Obama and the Democratic Party, and it is starting with the grassroot Tea Party members vetting candidates. Find your local Tea Party, and get involved!
Maybe they will be when universal healthcare is realized.
Do you think they had to embalm him, or was he already pickled enough?
They will be hoards of them if it shows her behind. And don't forget about that missing ballot box they will find somewhere in Minnesota
I'm surprised one of the resident trolls hasn't yet come along to tell you that your profession does not give you any insight on the matter of health care.
Being Catholic disqualifies you from working in an ER? Because you refuse to kill innocents?
Didn't stop Teddy Kennedy.
Problem is, the polls which have been proven to be most accurate, polls of likely voters (like Rasmussen), don't include the likely fraud courtesy of ACORN and other nuts.
Best … Fixed … It … For … You … Ever!
Ever notice that all these progressive secular females look like any mans idea of a nightmare ? Imagine getting up every morning and having to listen to ignorance in motion. B4 Coffee Even!!!
Ahhh, of course…… I liiiike it!! …. Hanzo
You like border-line bull dykes who are power hungry and have pen*s envy. Looks like you'll never be on top again, if you ever have sex
…………
Ms. Coakley, and her 'claque', personify Democrat/Statist attitudes of arrogance and entitlement. It's time for them, and all like minded types, to be run out of office!
Cowboy, she is another isolated narrsastistic intelectual who truley believes most of us are ilinformed and stupid.
In short, she is convinced we don't have her capacity for thinking and reason.
Boy is she about to get the big boot.
Catholics and others work in Emergency rooms because they have dedicated their lives to SAVING the lives of others. they see horrible and heartbreaking things every day that we could never be able to deal with. It takes a special sort of person who starts out their life saying that "This is what I want to spend my life dealing with". When Catholics (and probably others too) refuse to hand out abortificants, it is because of this dedication to saving lives–even if they are still in the womb. They don't refuse to do real life-saving procedures. Compared to the many other things happening in Emergency rooms every day, passing out the abortion pills doesn't happen that often. Would you tell the people who go out and train for the positions that we haven't the heart to do that they shouldn't do it just in case someone wants this pill?
Word now is Crackley is calling Brown a cheater. Does this sound like a woman with victory in her sights?
People on the left always act as if Pro-Life people are so stupid and unsophisticated. I am not speaking about rape victims here, so don't twist what I am saying, but for most pro-abortion people, if they are so much smarter than the rest of us and with birth control available everywhere, why do they need abortion at all? Why do these so very sophisticated people keep getting pregnant in the first place?
When I see these commercials with women whining about how hard it is to remember to take the pill every day, and hear how they feel they should all be the heads of multi-million dollar corporations, I just gag. I am female myself, but this makes me ill.
I know that I am also a member of a union and I never supported the people that my union dues go to! I was once proud to be a Union member (of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union), but unions aren't unions anymore. If they cared about us and were really trying to help in these difficult last few years, they would make a statement by freezing or even lowering their members' dues–not a chance! Then there's ACORN taking dues from all those really poor people they say they are helping–shameful!
Oooooohhhhhh! Sheer Poetry.
well, dispesing plan b contraception is hardly in the lifesaving category. In fact, in the minds of people who oppose it, it's murder. That would make the person who opposes it a lifesaver, yes?
I am a Catholic RN and I fail to see how my faith would interfere with my work in an emergency room. For example, when it comes to hot button issues like abortion, its not strictly 'religious' problem for me. I don't need to call on my faith to point out and refute the "pro-choice" mentality. All I need is science, logic, and a well formed conscience. It's not strictly a "religious" issue. It's not as simple as "I'm Catholic so I am against this or that". There is reason and logic behind Catholic moral teaching. The problem is that there are so many people like Coakely who have no idea what the Church teaches and WHY it teaches what it does. I fail to see how I could not work in an ER effectively.
Also, following proper procedure, if the attending nurse (or doc) is not comfortable with giving the victim information about the morning after pill and stating that as an option, another nurse (or doc) is brought in who will do that, and administer the pill if that option is chosen.
Thin lips (Reid, Pelosi. Coakley)–sometimes a reflection of thin thinking. I doubt she hates catholics, she just believes that she has entitlement for this seat. Sorry Martha, even if you win, you lose–in fact, I would say the fact that this is a race at all is already a loss for liberals.
Thanks !
Obama is on FOX now ( they are televising the Coakley rally in Boston ) and Barry is lying his head off…………claiming that the PORKULUS BILL has "lowered taxes" for 95% of the populace.
This speech, in "support of Caokley", is ALL ABOUT HIM ! And being a "fair" person, I can tell you all, his speech STINKS!
The venue, BTW, is close to 1/2 empty and they bussed college kids in, to fill seats; even.
Oh this is hysterical…………………..this is a stale campaign speech for himself, with a few not well thought out slams at Brown. LOL
Ted Kennedy"s hometown paper endorses Scott Brown LOL

Supposing that DeadKennedy were still alive and perhaps ready to retire; Do you think he would have endorsed this imbecile Coakley? Of course he would have. It all goes to how immoral DeadKennedy has been all his "Catholic" life.
Let's not forget he covered up a murder he committed, he was a liar without remorse, he's gone outside his marriage to commit adultery and had no problem savagely murdering the unborn. Yeah…..he was a great Catholic.
At least Coakley hasn't claimed to be religious. She's just inept.
Contact an ACORN employee (or "volunteer" as they call it) and offer to vote in the MA race. Doesn't matter where you live. They'll probably send you an absentee ballot if they think you are a Dimocrat. Then place an illegal vote for Brown. Dims do it all the time. Should work here for us. You know the AG won't look into any illegal votes, even if for Brown. (Use a prominent alias like "Obama" or maybe your dog.) If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. On my way to voluteer at my local ACORN office now. Maybe we can fight them from within.
Lovely, with that criteria you must adore Sinead O'Connor….
“You can have progressive beliefs but you probably shouldn’t work in congress.”
FIFY martha….
Funny, he works with Matthews and Olbermann and Scott Brown is "The Bastard"?
Ole Ed's comments are endorsed by MSNBC and by adjunct Jeffery Ilmet and Jeff Zucker. So he's just sucking up to management.
That's the joke! Libs only have tolerance for other libs. They preach tolerance but when the rubber meets the road, they are the biggest hypocrites!
Or the missing ballot box they will find in the trunk of some car in Washington State.
Obama did her no favors at all today. All he did was belittle Scott Brown's truck. Another arugula moment.
No religious freedom for this gal. It's her ideology or the highway!
If someone refuses to dispense RU-486, the abortion pill, because of consientious reasons, the hospital can find a useful pawn to do the trick.
Dictators like Coakley need to be defeated- even in Massachusetts.
At least Martha has the Transgender vote
check the web site massresistance.net Click ok on the warning
Give Durbin, Shumer, Kerry and Boxer some heartburn.
What Coakley and the left are trying to do is force unwilling doctors and nurses to perform abortions; doctors and nurses who believe abortion is immoral and results in the murder of a child.
Abortions, 99.9999% of the time, are elective procedures and are simply done for the convenience of the woman and not for any medical necessity. Pregnancy is not a disease. Refusing to perform an abortion does not deny a woman any medically necessary treatment.
Coakley is not "kind of right here", she is just showing her true totalitarian colors in her pursuit to trample upon our religious freedom and right of conscience all in the name of the leftist sacrament of abortion.
You are either for religious freedom and right of conscience or you are with the left.

You made some good points…I’d like to know what you would recommend in my situation. I think my fiancee might be cheating on me, but I do not have evidence. It’s more like I have a “gut feeling.” Do you think I should see about hiring a private investigator? Or should I confront her with my suspicions?
