Required by Law to Lie
from People's Republic of Seabrook comes this Houston Chronicle article.
HB 15 would also require that women be told that their risk of breast cancer may increase if they have an abortion. This is inaccurate and untrue. The National Cancer Institute, the American Cancer Society, the National Breast Cancer Coalition, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the National Women's Health Network and others have all publicly denied the claim by anti-choice groups that there is such a link.
Great. Now there is a law proposed which would require doctors to lie to women. Here they come, the Xian moralizers. Too bad they are too chicken-poop to stand up and argue the issue on its merits. Like people who believe in a position. No.
They are so sure of their superior morality that they will lie and cheat their way into forcing others to live by their rules. Quite a demonstration of moral superiority, and self-confidence.
