Jon Stewart On Birth Control Opponents: ‘Liberty For Employers, Employees Can Go F*ck Themselves’

A lot of things have happened in the past week that Jon Stewart was off on vacation. The most recent and jarring, of course, was the death of Whitney Houston– which, if you were in New York, you may have found out about from a roving CNN reporter going around making people sad. But the biggest story of the week was definitely the rise of Rick Santorum, and with him a national debate on whether religious organizations should have to provide birth control to employees as part of their insurance.

Stewart opened the show with clips from CNN’s coverage of Houston’s death, which consisted in part of a roving reporter going around, as Stewart described it, “town crier style,” handing out the news of Houston’s death “the same way in Times Square they pass along nail salon coupons.” He then tried to turn to the Republican primary, with full confidence that Mitt Romney was the man of the hour, and finding that Santorum had swept Tuesday’s primaries. “What the hell, America?” Stewart scolded. “I leave you alone for one week. One week!” He joked that he expected America to “maybe have a party, invite Mexico over, draw a penis on Canada’s head while it’s sleeping… but making this guy the frontrunner? Oh, man.”

Stewart predicted accurately that “now we’re just going to start fighting about religion and public policy again,” and turned to the health care mandate debate, and particularly to Santorum’s response to it. “Rick Santorum takes issue with the President using the arm of the government to impose his values,” he noted, following that observation up with some clips of Santorum demanding the government impose cultural values on individuals.

Stewart then saw a slippery slope argument to the one the Catholic Church was making– any employer could claim they just “didn’t believe” in some sort of health care (say, a Church of Scientology member believing in prayer or a sports coach believing in “walk it off, you pussy”). “I am an employer,” he noted, “and I personally believe in the healing power of comedy,” spraying a writer who had the flu with a pressurized canister of water, for laughs. To those opposing the mandate, Stewart concluded, “liberty means liberty for employers, employees can go f*ck themselves.”

IF WE DON’T STOP OBAMA NOW AMERICA WILL NOT SURVIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right……So let’s get him on birth control and Media Matters……

Isn’t anyone embarrassed yet?
expatpatriot

This makes me even more eager for Santorum to continue surging (as long as I’m at least 100 yards away). I don’t think he has a snowball’s chance in hell of taking the nomination, but he (along with Newt, Ron, Mitt, Sarah, Chris, Jeb, and Andrew Breitbart on the 37th ballot) could sure make for an interesting convention.

They’re going to need metal detectors — for the delegates.

Thank God we have theological, religious experts like Jon Stewart to tell us Christians, that we are a bunch of stupid ideologues for voicing our opposition to Obama’s intrusion on our scared right to practice our religion the way we want too, NOT OBAMA’S WAY.

If we truly believe in religious liberty, then parents should be able to refuse to let their children get medical treatment. See the case of Medline Neumann, a 12 year-old girl who had diabetes. She died a terrible, painful death because her parents didn’t believe in medicine.

But hey. That’s their religion. We should respect it, right?

Friend, you are such a blind and spiteful ideologue that I don’t know how to respond to you. What you’re saying is meaningless yet you think it’s clever. Your idea about what liberals and Republicans want is not based on reality. If you’re trying to make a point about the Catholic Church, many Catholic hospitals already pay for contraceptives, and many states require that they do. Republicans never cared about it until now though. If you’re trying to suggest that Obama is trying to force religious groups to do his dictatorial bidding, please come up with an example. You won’t be able to. If you’re just making a derogatory joke about Muslims and terrorists, you’re not too bright.

Yes, but.

Even though thinks look encouraging for Obama, we need to be seriously looking at House and Senate races (and governors). Obama’s coattails are unmeasured as of yet, and it’s crucial that we get more balance back in Congress.

My dream, of course, is a majority in the House and a supermajority in the Senate.

At the rate the Republicans are going they will try abolishing the 19th amendment. The women’s place is not at the polls.

Right, I agree. One possible scenario is that Obama gets reelected and then we have four more years of obstructionism in the House. That would, of course, be better than four years of Romney, Gingrich or Santorum, but it would still be a hard pill to swallow. Historically, the opposing party often does well in the midterm, which we’ve seen, and then loses seats in the general election but the House needs to shed a large number of Tea Partiers just to function. At least many of the TPers are now unpopular in their districts and the flukes, like Scott Brown in MA, are about to be ousted.

Excellent point, because female genitalia mutilation happens all of the time in the United States, and Obama orders it.

What are you possibly getting at? Are you just trying to disparage Muslims because you watched a 2-minute news report once on how a tiny minority Muslims still implement the sort of horrific acts that Jews and Christians also perpetrated for centuries? Do you follow all of the commands of the Old Testament? If so, I hope you’ve shaved your wife’s head and cut off whichever hand she used to touch another man. And of course, feel free to murder some of your family if they resist you. Rape is okay too as long as you’re raping someone from a warring clan. It’s all there for you, in the Old Testament. Will the Catholic church pay for those services?

You truly are pathetic. But what you don’t understand is that you just argued for Obamas side. In this country(not a muslim theocracy) it is illegal for a muslim to practice this and if he does so he will get thrown in jail for a very long time, period. This is where the state steps in against religion. See how that works brainiac. I am consistently amazed at your sides incompetence, and any lack of nuance. If a fool such as yourself or anyone like you ever got control of the government in this country you would mold it into a religious theocracy so fast and attempt to destroy anyone who does not believe the way you do. Your avatar is literally a symbol of your hate and intolerance for others.

Oh that’s strange a liberal brought up the Old Testament again. Or also known as the Tanakh and Torah, you know the Jewish bible, and please remind me what is it that Jon Stewart confesses to be? Hear i will help you out he is a Jew.

And hear is an explanation for your low comprehension levels of the bible in rearguards to the new and old testament.

Allow me to clarify:

1. Jesus Christ is the son of God
2. He died for our sins and became the one and only way to heaven. ” I’m
the way the truth and the light, No man comes to the father except
through me”. But I’m sure you knew that because your a bible expert
right?
3. Jesus of Nazareth fulfilled the old testament prophesies
and with and through his sacrifice gave us a new covenant. I’m sure you
already know what the first covenant was though right. I will give u a
hint Abraham maybe.
4. So all u atheist can now stop ignorantly
quoting the old testament. While at the same time totally disregarding
the new testament. And the new covenant.

And finally please don’t let your blind hatred of me, keep you from developing a relationship with Christ it would be your loss not mine.

Nope wrong again insidegirl:

What little Jon didn’t bring up was the abortion issue of this mandate, (see the SBCs website) He is by default ordering the church, Protestants and Catholics to take part in abortion by funding it.

So my point is simple, yet apparently elusive to you. If he can force the church to participate in the sadistic murder of the unborn. Then why cant he force us to fund equally savage acts such as the above mentioned?

How do you know all this, you did not live in the time of JC. I tell you this long has the truth turned into only propaganda. The bible that you know is only another propaganda machine and in truth, since interfering in the political spectrum, your church has become a corporation. And this does not take your belief to know because it is all to apparent. Jesus never created the church it only his disciples. Not only that a ‘dictator titled a “Pope” threw out a lot of the written words from witnesses of Jesus, and adopted what he thought would grow this corporation called the Catholic church. Oh and don’t give me this “divinely inspired to do this” bit. That is also propaganda. For you did not even witness the proof of that either because you were not there. All the writings of the witnesses of Jesus should of been kept because “They Were There.” Now you have a stupid chopped up version which isn’t even honest because you keep changing the words. I will tell you what your Church Is “POLITICS POLITICS POLITICS POLITICS. and nothing more now, because the witnesses and the real words have been lost through time.

Um, besides you impressive political “acumen” shown with your comments I am sure you can back up the claim “FOX audiences routinely crush Media Matters-approved shows like Stewart’s in viewer knowledge and political acumen.” Would be interested to see some hard facts on that topic like this one:

December 29, 2011

Jon Stewart more popular than Fox News, whose average viewer is now 65 years old

Politicus USA – By losing 9% of their audience in 2011, Fox News’
prime time lineup now averages fewer viewers than Jon Stewart’s The
Daily Show.

According to TVNewser, Fox News averaged 1.868 million total viewers in prime time compared to 2.3 million for The Daily Show.

The audience erosion continued over at Fox News as the network lost 8% of its total viewers and 14% of their viewers in the 25-54 demo.

“Red Eye” was the only Fox News show to post ratings gains in 2011. Bill
O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, and On The Record With Greta Van Susteren all
lost viewers.

The reason why Fox News feels so threatened by Jon Stewart is because his program is more popular than anything not named Bill O’Reilly on the network.
Not only is Stewart popular, but he is popular with the coveted young
demographics that Fox News struggles with. The average Fox News viewer is 65 years old.

Is it about religious freedom when Santorum wants to make sure the laws of the nation are like the laws of God that exist in his head?

Actually right wing women get the same rights to choose for themselves.
This issue has been going on for years before President Obama took office.

Washington D.C., Oct 5, 2004 / 12:00 am (CNA).-
The Supreme Court refused yesterday to reverse a ruling, which forces
California religious organizations to pay for birth control pills in the
health insurance benefits they offer employees.
The Supreme Court had been asked to review California’s law, which
exempts churches from this requirement but not religious institutions,
like hospitals and charity organizations.

October 1 2007

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Supreme Court today turned down a request by
Catholic Charities of New York to review a state court decision
requiring insurance companies to include contraceptive coverage in drug
benefit packages. The Court’s refusal to hear the case leaves in place a
law that promotes women’s health and addresses gender discrimination
while appropriately protecting religious freedom.

It’s just a far bigger outrage now because President Obama did it. It’s being used as a poltical tool that the partisan base will embrace, but others won’t. Nobody is attackig religious freedom

So church’s should be able to do whatever their beliefs dictate? Religious freedom is more important than the laws of the land?

Nothing about this issue is preventing anyone from practicing thier religion. What it questions is the the church’s right to become a massive employer and still feel entitled to some religious exemption outside the church itself. These are the questions a diverse society of adults get to answer.

Jon didn’t blame the controversy on Rick. He correctly pointed out the hypocrisy of a religious zealot like Santorum complaining about anyone forcing thier moral opinion on someone else. Half of his campaign is about forcing his religious opinons onto the nation through the law.

Perhaps Martel decided to stay on topic and discuss the actual media subject she was covering — Stewart’s show.

I realize Martel is being wildly consistent and you only do wildly inconsistent, but you really have to expect that from time to time.

Have you talked to anyone about this delusion you have that Jon Stewart scripts his show according to your current obsession, and is somehow cheating you when he doesn’t actually do so?

Seems like a serious problem. I’d talk to a doctor or a close friend at least.

some republicans did decide on thier own to turn this into a much larger issue then it actually is. Rather than approach it sensibly and honestly discuss the details they inflated it to try and make politcal points. That works well for the partisan base but it’s exavtly the thing a lot of others are sick of. If they end up lookig foolish it’s thier own dam fault.

On the whole, I’d guess Democrats are about as religious as the next person (maybe a little less).

Myself, I’m an atheist. So that means I can’t hate god (because you can’t hate something that doesn’t exist), and I merely think religion is preposterous.

I won’t go into all of that Crusade stuff, because the statute of limitations has run out on that particular set of crimes.

Well, let’s be real. The only Republican in the race who stands a chance of beating Obama is Romney, because he’s the only one who can convincingly tack toward the center following the Republican convention.

So I want Newt and Rick and Ron and Mitt all in there mixing it up until they pick one or the other.

Heck, throw in Sarah and Jeb, and Chris Christie. Let’s get a real cage match going.

Noticing that none of the people so deeply offended by what was said can’t address the points that were made. Here you go guys’s, I’ll help you guys out since the video is so hard for you. Republicans are crying about top echelon of the Catholic hierarchy providing it’s employees with birth control pills, so Obama came up with a compromise so that if the situation arises insurance companies will provide this medication so the Catholic organizations don’t have to. Seems fair, right? Nope, Republicans still claim Obama is still waging a “war” on religion. Meanwhile, Republican candidates (particularly Santorum) are advocating a Christian version of Sharia Law in which they can now impose their beliefs on our healthcare coverage. There, now you know what this skit was about. Please address that instead of crying about how Stewert doesn’t make fun of Obama as much as you would like.

Yes the governmet of the people DOES have the power to tell PRIVATE COMPANIES WHAT THEY CAN AND CAN NOT DO, they can regulate them and subject them to mandates of law you DUMBA$$, and we regulate COSTS all the time mandating what they can charge and not charge and at what costs and we even make them not poison us with toxins and we force them to take unsafe products off the market we even have the gall to make them recall defective and fatal products and drugs, and a hell of a lot more things we do to them IT IS CALLED THE RULE OF LAW.

So Monty your argument is not only stupid it is ignorant, but we cant stop conservative ignorance or rethuglican stupidity, or do you want the grocery store selling spoiled and deadly meat products because they learned how to hide spoilage by infusing carbon monoxide into it to prevent consumers from knowing it was bad, we used the law to stop that and we imposed our will (the peoples will through the government) on them.

I’m sure you realised, as an obvious intelligent conservative, the delicious irony of uttering such a vague and non-committal statement labelling everyone not agreeing with your political views as an ignorant and envious socialist without providing a shred of evidence to back up your hypothesis. This would be called conjecture and is one of the farthest attributes from intelligence.

Plan B and The Morning After Pill are not the same as the Abortion Pill (ru486), they work in exactly the Opposite ways and will not induce an abortion of an implanted embryo, nor cause any harm to a implanted embryo, they only prevent implantation, perhaps that is a distinction without a difference to you. but then that would mean under your definition of abortion, all contraception is abortion except condoms, pulling out, rhythm, and spermicides and specially not “female contraception” ie. IUD, the Pill, Nova ring, plan b etc…

BooBoo Bear

Cold Heart….I suggest that you take a vacation in Iran or Saudi Arabia just so you know what a theocracy looks like. It’s fine that you have your Christian beliefs, but your Christian beliefs are not my Christian beliefs. I’m one of those Christian Leftists. We still believe in the “Separation of Church & State”. Your beliefs can be kept in your Home Life & Your Church Life.

Let me guess…You’d be fine if the Religious Organizations paid for Viagra. Do you know what the cost of Viagra is…the best price in my state for an annual Prescription is   $7,954.00
Do you know what the annual cost of Apri a generic form of Desogen is $14.96
You could pay for 531 Prescriptions of Arpi for the same price as Viagra.

How about we decide that it’s not right for our Insurance to cover the Obese, which make up 33% of Americans. Lord knows that their annual cost of healthcare would be in the upper hundreds with seeing a Doctor monthly as well as his medications…If we’re lucky that won’t take his costs into the thousands.

On another vein of questions…
I’m sure that you believe Homosexuality is an Abomination. But the Church has selective amnesia when it comes to the Abominations. They only see one when there are 362..

Now, don’t be surprised if you or almost everyone in your family, friends, and fellow Church goers aren’t guilty of more than one of the following.

1. Wearing 2 different fabrics at the same time.
    a. Does your spouse, mother, or gf wear a Latex Bra under that Cotton Blouse Dress or T-Shirt.
        Abomination.
    b. Do you wear underwear with an elastic waistband?
        Abomination.
    c. Do you ever wear sweats..either Sweatshirts or sweatpants? Most are Cotton/Poly blends.
        Abomination.
    d. Do you wear a Cotton shirt with a Silk Tie?
        Abomination.
    e. Do any of your female friends, family members wear spandex type panties?
        Abomination.

2. Do you any of your friends, family members or Church goers ever go out eating….
   a. Did they ever order a Hamburger and a Milkshake?
      Abomination.
   b. Did they ever go out eating and order Lobster, Clams, Oysters or Shrimp?
      Abomination.
   c. Did any of you go out to eat after Church on Sunday? Making someone else work on the Sabbath.
      That’s an abomination. And you are to smite them. (kill)
d. Do you watch Sports on Sunday? Once again you are making someone else work on the Sabbath.
       Abomination..So you are to go and smite the football players (I know the season is now over) but
       now you must go and smite the Basketball Players, then the Baseball Players, The Hockey Players,
       then we’re back to the Football Players. Now I want to know how many you plan on killing.

3. Do you, your spouse, friends family, and fellow Church goers wear jewelry with the exception of a
    spartan (bland) wedding ring?
    Abomination.

4. Do you farm or plant a garden that has two different crops next to another?
    Abomination.
5. If you are a guy, do you and your fellow pals and Church goers…Shave or Get haircuts?
   Abomination.

And I would truly like to have you learn why Sodom & Gomorrah were destroyed. It wasn’t because they
were homosexuals. It’s because they basically were Neo-cons. Ezekiel 16:49 They didn’t care for the visitors to town, the sick, the poor or the elderly.
But wait…aren’t you trying to get Medicaid cut? Aren’t you trying to get Medicare cut? Are you trying to cut Social Security? It hurts the pockets of these groups. Can you imagine on living on $800 a month.

Cold Hands,
I would like to propose something to you…If YOU are against abortion Don’t have one. But for those of us that know something such as the fetus is grossly deformed and won’t survive out of the womb, and it’s caught early enough let that person have an abortion.
You do know the #1 provider of ending a pregnancy before delivery?
God.. God ends approximately 50% of pregnancy’s for various reasons.

Also I hope that no one that you know ever experiences an ectopic pregnancy. It’s when a fertilized egg happens to be implanted way up in the fallopian tubes. Without an abortion both the fetus and woman will die by the 5 month, because it will outgrow the small space available and start to shut down the woman’s body. Since I’m guessing that you are a guy..Think of it this way.. The baby is growing in your windpipe. As it grows your windpipe will gradually become closed leading to your death by suffocation.

I think you are missing his point (which was poorly stated). To deny health care to to your child – who is dependent upon the parent for care – is an affront to that child’s liberty. This is exactly why the pro-life principle is a libertarian principle. An abortion is clearly an act of malice towards the life of the child inside his or her mother’s womb. This is exactly why a person that kills a pregnant woman resulting in the death of the unborn child is often tried for two murders instead of one. I find it frightfully inconsistent that our laws determine who is and isn’t a living person based on who commits the murder.

To homeboy’s other point, Obama, Santorum, Mitt, and Newt are all fascists. Obama is a fascist with a socialist leaning; the other three are fascist with a more capitalist-leaning ideal. But make no mistake, they are all holding bad positions. All these men are in bed with Wall St., big biz, the military industrial complex, the medical industrial complex, the educational industrial complex. They all in one way or another support the partnering of big business with government. And when that happens, it erodes the middle class. It redistributes wealth not only from the middle class to the poor but also from the middle class to the rich.

Ron Paul has not ever taken on red cent from a lobbyist. He is not for sale. And if you want what is best for this country, you need to seriously read all there is to read about him. Watch youtube videos of his debate performances, speeches on the house floor, appearances on news programs. Find out what he really stands for, b/c the media is not telling you truth about him. Just tonight I was watching that blowhard Bill O’Reilly talk with John Stossel about the deficit and how out of control it is; how it’s bankrupting the country. Yet that idiot has publicly and proudly professed on his show that he isn’t giving Paul – the only candidate willing to fix our spending problem – any air time or coverage b/c he thinks Paul isn’t a viable candidate and that his positions are dangerous.
expatpatriot

Yep, he’s certainly a lefty comic. But’s he’s a very influential lefty comic, and the story doesn’t end there.

He’s also a celebrity, and a personality, and not just a comic, but a brilliant comic.

Like it or not, Stewart’s throw weight is much greater than his formal qualifications as a pundit (although it seems as if they’ll let anyone on TeeVee these days — have you seen “Fox and Friends?”). Celebrities capture the public imagination (aka have power) in a way that’s quite different than other powerful people. For one thing, celebrity’s power is usually quite fleeting.

Sneer all you will about how Dems slobber all over Stewart, but the fact remains that he changes millions of people’s minds, affect their behavior, simply by telling a joke or two.

When you’re hot, you’re hot, and Stewart’s hot.

Santorum probably will fade but as of now Rasmussen & PPP say he’s got a better chance against Obama than Romney. Of course they would both lose, but if you’re going to lose might as well go down fighting with Santorum than go down flip flopping with Romney.
