We don't have to imagine how mad, furious, angry, unhappy, livid, incensed and pissed off some Republicans are right now. More mad than they've ever, ever been in their life.

Like it or not, abortion is a legal medical procedure and a decision that has to be left to doctors and families. Why are women being singled out and denied coverage, even through private plans?
