In a rather strange joke, Friess said: "This contraception thing, my gosh it's so inexpensive. Back in my day they used Bayer aspirin for contraceptives, the gals put it between their knees and it wasn't that costly." Friess is presumably saying all women who didn't want to become pregnant were abstinent and thus had no need for birth control.

Well, I guess Friess isn’t going to win the Presidency.

What, he’s not actually running for anything?

For a minute there, I thought I had a virus or something and was redirected to Democratic Underground reading some of the replies here.

Santorum is a practicing Catholic. He is simply saying that he and his wife agree with, and practice his religion regarding this matter.

Thought only brain dead liberals would make the leap to assume that as President, Santorum would ban contraception. Amazing.

It, the asprin works much better when the male uses it. He puts one in his shoe or boot and it makes him “limp”..

Abstinence....100% prevents pregnancy and STDs - works every time it is utilized...and best of all, IT’S FREE.

Foster Fries told an old joke about contraception in the old days, saying: “On this contraceptive thing, my Gosh it’s such [sic] inexpensive,” he added. “You know, back in my days, they used Bayer aspirin for contraception. The gals put it between their knees, and it wasn’t that costly.”

I have heard that joke for years. But suddenly the media mavens that revel in the freedom that gives us pornography on grocery store shelves and the number one topic on the Internet; the same press that demands the free distribution of birth control pills, demonizes people that oppose homosexual marriage and those who oppose killing unborn children, has the vapors about this joke. Andrea Mitchell needs to catch her breath after being told an old joke; what is he, a nun? Even nuns have heard this one without blushing.

Has anyone watched TV or gone to a movie the last few decades? The entertainment media would not exist without sex jokes, sex acts between both animate and inanimate objects, and gratuitous nudity, and Andrea Mitchell has to catch her breath about a little joke that mentions women’s knees and an aspirin tablet?

I have heard about faking it, but the Left media is jumping the shark with this one.

It's just out that Foster Friess has apologized for his aspirin joke. I think it was a mistake for him to apologize. ~A.~
