I think he did a great job. For those of you unfamiliar with US politics, Bush is trying to get federal funds pulled from entities that hire health workers unless they don't discriminate between people who refuse to provide abortions and contraception and workers willing to do their jobs. No, there is no exception, that I've heard of, for abortion clinics or family planning services or to make sure that raped women are provided emergency contraception.

I'm personally against abortion, but I think this is a stupid way to go about fighting it.
If you're not willing to perform an abortion, don't apply to a job that could require you to do it.

Damn, that sounds even worse than "no child left behind."
