A couple people have written to see if all is OK... thanks, and yes. For some reason, I haven't felt inspired to post lately. Hopefully, inspiration and free time will coincide again soon! I hope everyone who reads here is doing well. O

Math
(1) Obama supports single payer as the ideal mechanism for health care reform to evolve into.
(2) Obama is OK with the “tradition” of the government not financing abortions, telling Katie Couric he didn’t want to “micromanage” what benefits were covered: “But I think we also have a tradition of, in this town, historically, of not financing abortions as part of government funded health care.”
(3) Many, including the originator of the public option concept, Reps. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) and Barney Frank (D-MA), and various liberal and conservative pundits, claim it will naturally lead to a government-provided single payer system.
(4) “Presently, more than 85 percent of private-insurance plans cover abortion services.”
So. (1) + (2) + (3) + (4) = ?
Let me fill in the blank. It means that our President is OK with a significant percentage of women losing their ability to have abortions.
