New Florida Law Allows Providers To Deny People Healthcare Based On ‘Moral Objections’


Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has just signed Senate Bill 1580, the “Protections of Medical Conscience,” into law, allowing Florida healthcare providers and insurance companies to refuse services based on their moral, ethical, or religious beliefs.  That’s right, folks; patients in Florida will soon be facing denial of care or insurance payment for almost anything if some medical professional or insurance company claims they have a moral objection.  You know, like if you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community, or perhaps you’re of the wrong religion or political beliefs, or maybe you’re an “unwed mother.”

Holy shit, who the hell lobbied for this bill, anyway?  The Undertakers?  Talk about “Death Panels!”  I mean, only Florida and Gov. DeSantis could turn Doctors practicing the cherished “Hippocratic Oath” into a bunch of “Hypocritic Oafs.”  Of course, insurance companies are all in for this new law.  Turns out they’re “morally opposed” to any medical procedure which might cost them money.  Who knew?  I thought Nationwide was supposed to be “on my side."

So, let me get this straight, insurance companies are now the moral compass in Florida?  What could go wrong there?  Me thinks that old “Law of Unintended Consequences” should start kicking in pretty darn soon for these half-wits.  Just think, now Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Democrats, Libertarians, and Republicans - can all legally refuse to treat one another.

I tell ya, this law is pure genius!  Well, perhaps just a wee-bit short of genius, but you get the idea.  And what about veterinarians?  Can they refuse service to my neighbor’s dogs because they’re black, because they’re two females, and they sleep together in the same bed?  Not to mention a dog’s sexual mores.  I mean, dogs will hump almost anything, including chairs.  Of course, so will most Republicans, so there’s that.

Now, the only question that remains is, what will those Republicans’ "conscience" say when a person who was denied care because of this law dies?  Well, the answer is “probably nothing.”  That’s because that would require a degree of sympathy and compassion - another way of saying “Woke.”  Can’t have any of that in Ron DeSantis’ tropical, Social Darwinistic dystopia.  And, for those of you who think, “So what, I don’t live in Florida,” just remember if Trump goes to jail - DeSantis may very well be our next president.  Sweet dreams!

Marjorie Taylor Greene Claims Pete Buttigieg Emasculating Driving With Electric Cars

During a segment on Neil Cavuto’s Fox News program, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was told by the host that Marjorie Taylor Greene is claiming "Mr. Buttigieg is trying to emasculate the way we drive" by supporting electric vehicles.  In response, Buttigieg told Cavuto that “my sense of manhood is not connected to whether my vehicle is fueled by gasoline, or whether it's fueled by electricity.”  When asked by Cavuto if he was offended by what Greene said, Buttigieg remarked "To be honest, there are other members of Congress that I pay more attention to when I'm thinking about opinions that really matter.” Oh, come on now!  Let’s get real.  It would take a helluva lot more than an electric car to “emasculate” Marjorie Taylor Greene.  Besides, I’m pretty sure “real men” actually ride horses, anyway.  Of course, I’m certainly no psychiatrist, but it sounds like Greene’s anger could be a combination of both “road rage” and “roid rage,” leaving her...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...
