 The War On Women’s Health

by Deborah Burger, Co-President Of America’s RN Union : National Nurses United

The far right and their representatives in Congress and many state houses sure have a unique way of celebrating the centennial anniversary of International Women's Day.
News that the Texas House of Representatives last week approved a bill, already passed by the state Senate, to force women seeking an abortion to first get an ultrasound test is one of a number of attacks on women's health in the works.

Grant Storms Arrested: Anti-Gay Christian Pastor Charged Over Public Masturbation

Did you know that the AFA’s Rev. Tim Wildmon has many fear-mongering talking points he uses against the gay community? The one that comes to mind here is: gays are "pedophiles."Of course,

that’s all a lot of hooey that rolls out of Tim’s lips, especially given the fact that one of his own in the service of Anti-Gay Christianity appears to have been caught in the first stages of pedophelia in Louisiana. -E.B.

Islam-Bashing / Islamophobia --Part of AFA Agenda

Rep. King's (R), 2011 House Un-American Activities Committee Targets Muslim Americans...
Huffington Post, Feb. 28, 2011

"Republican Representative Peter King ,(R-NY), is organizing congressional hearings to cast suspicion on American Muslims"--(D) Rep. Mike Honda, reports.

Honda says:

My father loved this country and proudly served in the U.S. Military Intelligence Service. Yet when I was a young child during World War II, we were confined for several years at Camp Amache, an internment camp in southeast Colorado, simply because we were of Japanese ancestry. Hundreds of thousands of innocent Japanese Americans were unjustly placed under scrutiny and suspicion because few in Washington were brave enough to say "no." The decision to incarcerate, according to a report by the congressionally mandated Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians, was based on "race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership."

Not only is Islam-bashing a favorite activity among many Republican congressmen in Washington, it is  an ongoing favorite activity of AFA radicals  on the "Dark Side Of Tupelo, Mississippi:" 

AFA’s Most Notable Phobias: 


The American Family Association, a Christian Right organization headquartered in Tupelo, Mississippi, is obsessed with at least three major phobias, phobia being defined by Webster online as:
"an exaggerated usually, inexplicable and illogical fear of a particular object, class of objects, or situation."

1. Homophobia: irrational fear of, or aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals –Webster

2. Islamaphobia or Muslim phobia: irrational fear or aversion to, or discrimination against Muslim -Americans in particular those who aren’t associated with Muslim terrorists acts or sedition of any form. – E. Bratton

3. Xenophobia: fear and hatred of strangers., or foreigners or anything that is strange or foreign.– Webster
The tax-exempt AFA’s war on Gays shifts its focus to American Muslims from time to time depending on the pre-dominant American political climate of the day. The vitriol they spew is equally as offensive between the two groups.
