Oh, btw, when this was intitally posted, it was under breaking news. If this isn't breaking news, I don't know what is. The owners and mods can run this forum as they wish, but if social issues are given less of a priority than other issues, then how conservative is this site?

It's not breaking news, read the site guidelines.

And your subheadline of "Bush Adminstration Betrays Social Conservatives" was a sad attempt to illicit a negative response against Bush, who had nothing to do with this decision.

The committees that make these determinations are made up of physicians with decades of experience... in other words, people much smarter than you and I put together.

The EC pill is not a chemical abortion, it prevents implantation similar to an IUD's secondary funtion. This will reduce the number of abortions in America, which I thought was the goal of the Religious Right (guess I was mistaken).

The two are completely related. You just don't buy it.

Why continue to say that Plan B prevents implantation?

Life begins at conception. To prevent implantation is to kill an innocent human being.

With all due respect, life beings at conception. The IUD and EC both do prevent implantation, which prevents the new-conceived human from attaching itself to his mother's wall, and thus he or she dies. The birth control pill, the IUD, and even EC have this "back up" function -- they do more than just prevent ovulation or conception. They are abortions causing drugs/devices.

And Bush, who is head of the executive branch, is responsible for the decisions that come out of it. The career bureaucrats at the FDA are extra-constitutional. They answer to him, not the other way around. His comments supporting this decision at best show a disregard for the facts of what EC is, or at best, his recklessness for not knowing the facts of what his own administration is doing.
