“Bush Insider Who Planned To Tell All Killed In Plane Crash: Non-Profit Demands Full Federal Investigation . . . WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Michael Connell, the Bush IT expert who has been directly implicated in the rigging of George Bush’s 2000 and 2004 elections, was killed last night when his single engine plane crashed three miles short of the Akron airport. Velvet Revolution (‘VR’), a non-profit that has been investigating Mr. Connell’s activities for the past two years, can now reveal that a person close to Mr. Connell has recently been discussing with a VR investigator how he can tell all about his work for George Bush. Mr. Connell told a close associate that he was afraid that George Bush and Dick Cheney would ‘throw [him] under the bus’” (Posted by Curly. (2008, December 22).

“The death of Republican ‘IT guru’ Mike Connell last Friday in a fiery plane crash has been the subject of intense speculation online about whether it might have been murder. . . . ‘Some say Connell was about to reveal embarrassing details involving senior members of the Bush Administration,’ Taylor explained, ‘including their involvement in destroying incriminating emails and rigging elections. . . . He was an experienced pilot. Was it an accident, or murder?’ . . . A tipster close to the McCain campaign disclosed to VR in July that Mr. Connell’s life was in jeopardy and that Karl Rove had threatened him and his wife” (David Edwards and Muriel Kane.

It is a red herring to state Do you really want doctors, nurses and pharmacists who go to work promising, “Trust me, I’ll act against my conscience?” In the absence of the “Right of Conscience” rule, no one was required to act against their conscience. They were simply required to do their jobs. If their consciences were troubled by certain aspects of their jobs, they were perfectly free to request a transfer or seek employment elsewhere. This is the same choice anyone and everyone has, so why should providing birth control or participating in abortions be any different?

Before you answer that question, consider first your opinion of Vietnam era draftees seeking conscientious objector status.

Do you really want doctors, nurses and pharmacists who go to work promising, “Trust me, I’ll act against my conscience?”

Even the most utilitarian of us should be able to see that is ethical to make laws to forbid an action, but only rarely ethical to force an action against a person’s will.

Remember the lobotomies given to unruly girls in the past because their guardians demanded it ( like Ted Kennedy’s sister, Rosemary, who was embarrassing her family). Remember the lawfully ordered involuntary sterilizations of men and women ordered by State law in the last century.

The “Right of Conscience” enables insubordination, if one’s “conscience” runs counter to a work task or assignment. (“Oh, I’m sorry, I know I’m a typist but it’s a matter of conscience for me not to risk breaking a nail, so I’m afraid I can’t do any typing.”) I’m surprised the Chamber of Commerce isn’t actively opposing this one, since it abrogates rights of employers.

I take a very hard line on this issue: If part or all of your job requirements are objectionable to you, FIND ANOTHER JOB! (And lest you think this unreasonable, I will tell you that I have done precisely that: I could not in good conscience continue working for a pharmaceutical company because of some of their business practices, so I quit. Easy as that.)

Moreover, state boards of nursing regulate nursing practice, and the rule violates statutes which require nurses to provide care to all patents, irrespective of differences in religious and ethical beliefs.

However, the vast majority of nurses practice as employees, and it’s employer policies and procedures that concern me. They often undermine nurses’ practice autonomy and accountability, and so I worry that religious-based hospitals and women’s health clinics will impose nursing policies and procedures which deny women needed health care and counseling.

Nurses cannot practice nursing and cannot and do not advocate for patients when non-nursing third parties run active interference.

But who am I? Just a nurse – no one listens – until they and their loved ones suffer preventable harm or death from the absence of professional nursing.
