Editing Jim Carney
At Hot Air this morning I read this quote from White House Press Secretary Jim Carney:
I think it must just be a bad transcript. There is a lot missing. So I feel it is my obligation to fill in the gaps just to clarify the point he was trying to make.‘Let’s be clear about what’s at stake,’ said Carney. ‘The proposal being considered in the Senate applies to all employers — not just religious employers. And it isn’t limited to contraception. Any employer could restrict access to any service they say they object to. That is dangerous and it is wrong. Decisions about medical care should be made by a woman and her doctor, not a woman and her boss.’
I hope this helps to clarify the statement for the White House on this issue.‘Let’s be clear about what’s at stake,’ said Carney. ‘The proposal being considered in the Senate applies to all employers — not just religious employers. And it isn’t limited to contraception. Any employer could be free to restrict access to not pay for any service they say they object to and people would be free to decide if they wished to work for that employer or not. That Such Freedom is dangerous and it is wrong. Decisions about medical care should not be made by a woman and her doctor, not or a woman and her boss but by the President and the Director of Health and Human Services.’
