Under the infamous Hyde Amendment federal money can't be spent on abortion, a perfectly legal and therapeutic procedure. Beady-eyed jerks are forever scrutinizing any possible connection any federal expenditure might have to abortion, which is why Planned Parenthood (and it's not alone) is constantly having to explain to Congress and to the public that no, the money it receives for other community health outreach and treatment isn't paying for anyone's abortion. They also have to constantly defend against the allegation that because they get money for one thing, it makes more money available to provide abortion services, so really the federal dollars they receive for other programs and services indirectly fund abortion. It's a very expensive, never-ending little game that wastes everyone's time.

Now, Gov. Brownback is looking to stove-pipe anything anyone might ever do or sell that could be construed as providing "services, accommodations, facilities, goods, or privileges" to a same sex marriage, a perfectly legal event, and relieving the irretrievably prejudiced from their duty to participate in the life of our society. Call it the Butt-hurt Bigot Balm Act of 2015.
