Yahoo News ^ | Liz Goodwin

In an interview with Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC Thursday, billionaire Santorum backer Foster Friess said that debates over the candidate's personal objections to contraception are overblown, adding that, in his day, "gals" used aspirin as birth control.

If the women used Bayer aspirin, what did the men use?

Interesting that the media is creating this paranoia that Rick Santorum wants to outlaw birth control. No one who is honest with him/herself can believe that. It is possible to have a religious belief and not want to foist it on the whole country. That's what our personal and religious freedom is all about!

However, Obama is foisting his Gaia worship and liberation theology on the nation and the media cheers. No one escapes Obama's penalties for success or using the energy that success requires. Conservatives haven't even hit upon this, that I know of.

My husband would tell you that does not happen often

Contraception is of primary concern during pre-marriage dating. With that being said, is your husband refering to your dating days and if so, .............?

“It’s pretty clear the left is going to use the issue of contraceptives as a distraction from the depression this election and Steponallofus was in on the plan from the beginning.”

I’m calling it “Obama’s Trojan War”

I saw that. I was speechless. My husband would tell you that does not happen often.

I think Santorum is about to discover that there are many conservative Republicans like myself, married with children and faithful to our spouses who use birth control as part of responsible family planning.

Love it.

It’s bullsh*t stating that it’s hundreds of dollars a year (which is what the Marxist was saying in a speech last week) for birth control. Even without insurance it is cheap.

This is nothing more than a ploy to make it sound like Santorum and supporters (and in general ALL republicans/conservatives) are radical. boo hoo they won’t let me murder my baby ...boo hoo I can’t prevent pregnancy cause the mean old republicans/conservatives took away my birth control. All lies of course. How many realize that they are lies?

So...in the final analysis, maybe they SHOULD try holding an aspirin between their knees. lol...that’s a good one.

Santorum was just on Hannity’s radio show today saying it is a personal choice - one he is PERSONALLY opposed to. He is not going to take your birth control.

Well?....As Fred Astair would have said, "Strike me pink!" Given your posts on Obama's eligibility I would have never guessed that you were conservative.

If it is “the pill” that you use then it is not conservative. It is a baby killer.

LOL! No wonder the santorum women always had a headache, they used the aspirin for the wrong cause.

Absolutely. You just described the majority of women I know. Family and friends. And their husbands feel no differently.
