Reading a news headline on Drudge Report today that states a religious exemption from participating in the new healthcare mandates will be extending to some sects such as the Amish and Christian Scientists. The article extracted from the Watertown Daily Times.com also points out the Amish have long been exempted from paying Social Security and Medicare taxes. I didn't know the Amish or Christian Scientists wielded such political power. Their congregations might swell with new members soon.

Just wondering, has anyone ever seen an Amish woman that didn't look incredibly angry and miserable? I'm at the WalMart in Coldwater, Mi and there was an Amish family in there last night. The wife had that "I wanna kill something" look on her face. Seems to be the norm with them.
