on who or what level, decided that it might not
look so good for a Pastor to be perp walked out of a church, so the plans were
changed at the last minute. Off the record, our regional office much prefers
this approach. We know you’re not a flight threat.”
             “Gentlemen, I appreciate your kindness. I do . My lawyer and I will be at the
federal building Thursday at 9 AM, the Lord willing.”
             “ Whoa , wait a
minute, Pastor….what does that mean?
The Lord what ? Is that some kind of code ? Are you showing up or….”
             “Agent Feltman, Christians use that phrase routinely when we
talk about the future. My plan is to be at the federal building in three days,
just as you requested; or demanded or whatever. The phrase, ‘the Lord willing’
simply means I know that I can make all the plans I want to make, but as
scripture says, the Lord directs my
steps.”
             “So you’re not saying you may later get some divine inspiration to fly to Mexico or
Belize or…..”
             “Of course not.
We’ll be there Thursday.” What Jack Madison didn’t know when he made his
promise was that someone in the federal government, upon learning that no
pastor perp walk was going to take place, changed the plan.

              The Margaret Sanger Birth Control
Clinical Research Bureau operated out of a three-story brick townhouse located
at 17 West 16 th Street in New York City for forty years, until 1973.
Twenty years later, in 1993, Congress designated it a national historic site.
Margaret Sanger advocated the use of birth control, in part, in order to
control the number of children born to racial groups she considered inferior or
“unfit.” She was an early supporter of Eugenics, a policy under which
African-Americans and others considered “unfit” or “feeble-minded” were
encouraged to abort their children. It was this location at which the President
announced his new policy on mandated abortion coverage under the nation’s
health care laws. He was joined on the stage erected in front of the Manhattan
townhouse by leaders of several women’s reproductive rights organizations, as
well as four female United States Senators known for their outspoken support of
the abortion movement.
             “Ladies and gentlemen, and my fellow Americans, we are
gathered at this historic site today, not only to honor Margaret Sanger for her
pioneering work on behalf of women’s health, but also to announce a new
breakthrough in women’s health coverage in America. Today I am pleased to
announce that I will sign an Executive Order, here at this hallowed location,
reversing an Executive Order which many construed as being against women’s
health, an Executive Order that was compelled by the House, as many will
recall. As we all know, our Supreme Court has now upheld the right of the
federal government to require all employers to provide contraception coverage
to America’s women. The obvious next step is to ensure that America’s women
will now be provided full abortion coverage for unwanted pregnancies or for any
other reason. That coverage, following the Supreme Court’s precedent, and under
my new regulation announced here today, will be provided by all of our nation’s employers , including its religious employers and
their insurance providers, by federal mandate.
             “When the initial contraception coverage mandate was issued,
there were some in the religious community, including many Catholic Bishops,
and others, who opposed my efforts to protect women who needed contraception
coverage. That is now settled law .
Based on that past history of political partisanship, which has no place in the Church, I might add, I expect more of the same opposition by religious organizations against this new policy,
this expanded right for women to be able to control their own
