 Dear Republicans,

Please keep screaming about how allowing employees to use their own money to purchase insurance that provides women's health benefits violates employers' rights to tell people what to do. Please keep picking this losing scab. Not because I think it makes you look ridiculous and hateful, which it does, but because I am hoping that you will convince Catholic universities and hospitals to decide that they don't want to provide any health benefits to their employees and make their employees buy health insurance on the "free market." Which will then make the people realize sooner that we need a public option. Or, you will win this ridiculousness and employers will realize that we need a public option.

Seriously, was that your plan all along or can you really not think things through?

I'm concerned that there will be a "public option" but it will be forced to limit itself to the healthcare no one disagrees with. Basically, I'm afraid that a public option will not cover contraceptives and women's health issues.
