Shocker: The Republican National Committee’s Health Care Plan Covers Abortion!

I am getting so tired of typing the word hypocrisy:
The Republican National Committee’s health insurance plan covers elective abortion – a procedure the party’s own platform calls “a fundamental assault on innocent human life.”
Federal Election Commission Records show the RNC purchases its insurance from Cigna. Two sales agents for the company said that the RNC’s policy covers elective abortion.
Informed of the coverage, RNC spokeswoman Gail Gitcho told POLITICO that the policy pre-dates the tenure of current RNC Chairman Michael Steele.
“The current policy has been in effect since 1991, and we are taking steps to address the issue,” Gitcho said.
The “current policy has been in effect since 1991?” For 18 freakin’ years?! And for 18 freakin years (at least) they’ve been telling women in this country that abortion is a sin and that people who have one are murderers and that they don’t “value life”?! But their very own insurance policy covers…
I swear, my hair is almost on fire. I need to take a minute or 20 to calm down before I either break my keyboard or write something I might regret.
