so good for her for at least bringing it to attention to the students that georgetown ain't coverin some shit and not tellin you. I really don't understand why uni's are offering health care in the first place....it doesn't seem their place, am i wrong on that? And then requiring students to either buy from them or get outside policies that at least match what georgetown offers....doesn't this sound exactly like what you all bitch about the govt for doing? So some woman who wants birth control covered lowers her coverage in something else and i'll bet that policy gets rejected by Georgetown. This is all a moot point if Georgetown receives state and federal subsidy's.
"Fluke came to Georgetown University interested in contraceptive coverage: She researched the Jesuit college’s health plans for students before enrolling, and found that birth control was not included. “I decided I was absolutely not willing to compromise the quality of my education in exchange for my health care,” says Fluke, who has spent the past three years lobbying the administration to change its policy on the issue. The issue got the university president’s office last spring, where Georgetown declined to change its policy."
Again - how has this been handled in majority-Catholic countries that also have socialized medicine? If I recall correctly, Italy and France do have contraception coverage, and Ireland does not.

Those aren't "Catholic" countries. They are countries with a lot of catholics -- huge difference.
And I'll ask again:
If a 30 week pregnant mom decides she's not ready to be a mom and wants a partial birth abortion, should insurance carriers be mandated by law to cover it?

Is it now? Are you saying we are a "catholic" country or just a country with some catholics in it then?
This issue has nothing to do with socialized medicine though. It's about a private catholic univ excluding birth control as a covered service. The question should be, what are other private catholic univ doing in this country. I've not researched it, but my guess is that they also don't cover it.

yeah - you will have to explain that one. Is the Vatican the only Catholic country by your definition?

DB is trying to confound the idea of a catholic country versus a country with a lot of Catholics.
It's like saying the US is a Christian country -- it simply isn't.

Your buddy Boehner would probably choke slam you for that comment. Santorum would slap your mouth instantly.

At the end of the day it should all come down to economics and freedom of choice. People can work nag go to school where they get the best insurance coverage. Insurance companies should gladly cover birth control because it is cheaper than birth.
