Sanity 1, Religious Fake Medical Personel 0

For those of you haven't heard the Bad News™ , George Bush on his way out signed a executive order that allowed for a "right of conscience" a.k.a. "fundies allowed to act like morons while pretending to be doctors" instruction. The effect of this was to allow a Pharmacist, Doctor, Nurse, or Janitor to refuse to do something medically required for the patient (like birth control for example) and the employer not be allowed to fire them provided it was for a religious reason.

Aside from the temptation of inventing a "teaist" religion where my religion required me to drop whatever i was doing to have a cup of tea any time i felt like it...this was one of the worst abuses of an executive order (and yet more evidence for the need of ending this legal nightmare forever).

However thankfully as of Friday, said executive order has been rescinded by the current president (Obama isn't perfect, but does anyone get tired of calling Bush "the former president")

I found this from radiac.net

This may be one of the neatest pieces of technology developed in the past 10 years. If someone brings it to market, it'll be such a progression it'll be a new epoch in usability...
