Democratic state lawmakers are introducing legislation they say would cut down on unintended pregnancies and protect women's health through expanded sex education and improved access to birth control.

Health insurance plans that cover prescriptions would have to include coverage for contraception.

Democrats REFUSE to believe that man is good so they define deviancy dwn to make him or her good.

They sicken me with their “They're gonna do it it anyway” drivel and have no hope for success when they teach that its all good, trust medical science (right) to save you. Meanwhile we have generations of losers who grew up on partying...sex without consequences, girls hurried into woman hood without understanding the ramifications of how their life is ruined by abortion or a baby out of wedlock.

THIS, and many other reasons, is why I resent liberals (democrats) who have no moral absolute to cling to...they ARE situational ethic and when it FAILS them, as it always does, they want my tax money to cover their sins with MORE FAILURE plans.

My mother encouraged the Tylenol method. Hold a Tylenol between your thighs and you won’t get pregnant!

Unfortunately, Bill Clinton taught them this was not the case.

I had a neice who stated to me “That it (Clinton and Lewinski) was just about sex.

Shows where morals are today.

After seeing how our young adult college students behave on sping break, I’m surprised the population growth is not off the charts.....seems many of them already know about birth control.

OK, it's always failed in the past, but this time it will really work. Hope to believe in future change!

Why does the government have to get involved in this one way or the other. As Pink Floyd says, "We don't need no education." We don't need more mandates either. For Pete's sake, government officials these days seem to have to buy sex (Stabenow's husband, Spitzer, Vitter) to to know anything about it anyway...

It doesn't work. The Dems and the Lefties will never admit it, but it doesn't work. These people are turning our young girls into the ones seen on YouTube beating each other senseless. How many virgins in that video? Median age...15.

“Women's Health” is a catch-all term for patching up all the broken dolls who are victims of feminization, indoctrination, and socialism. These poor kids don't stand a chance against the Internet. Sad. Why don't parents regard innocence and purity as the standard, not what is “cool”? Absolutely, I blame the parents. If it were me and my daughter, there would be no Internet, no MySpace, and most definitely, no buddy-budddy. I've got tons of friends, I've only got one daughter.

yes, this works soooo well.

There must have been free condoms available everywhere in the 40’s and 50’s when teen pregnancy rates were quite low.

Why don’t they use the money to pay REAL teachers to teach REAL math and REAL science.

Oh, thats right, we can’t have students graduate with true knowledge. They won’t be able to be led around by the nose by the libs.

Hey Darren, GO WINGS!

Notice how Dims don't want to just OFFER sex ed to those who want it? Allow parents who want their kids to be taught by their school to sign them up for classes?

Noooooooooo, we have to mandate sex ed, and then humiliate young children in front of their friends by having them “opt out”, and sit alone in the library, being made to feel “different” than the other kids.

It is planned that way on purpose, the left does this as a form of compliance.

Actually, leftists refuse to believe that humans are “born in sin”, ie, inherently flawed.

But, here’s the way all leftist policies work:

1) a minimal quantity of people are making bad decisions and having unpleasant consequences.
2) leftists institute a policy to alleviate those consequences (at others’ expense of course)
3) the incidence of the behavior skyrockets - leftists are baffled
4) leftists say the problem must have been worse than they though and demand more funding for consequence alleviation

The goal is unlimited, and preferably homosexual, sex with children.

And it is working!

A friend had to pull her daughter out of a HS in Ann Arbor Michigan because they were having an epidemic of girl on girl, guy on guy, making out at their lockers.

It is sickening.

I heard a great phrase this weekend -

“Do not sacrifice your children on the pagan altar of public schools.”

Ann Arbor? That’s about where I’d expect a lot of that stuff. The other places would be Ferndale and Saugatuk.

Actually, it’s not going to be limited to children. It’s going to be sex with anything/anyone/any creature. The Japanese are working on robots that can ‘mimic’ the body parts.

If an alien civilization is receiving our radio/TV airwaves, they think we LIVE for sex. Think about it, maxi-pads, condoms, Victoria’s Secret, Viagra, 4 hour erections, etc. That’s all we are to them - unintelligent pleasure seeking animals.

Undeniable truth about “liberalism” #2:

The only freedoms that the left supports are those related to sexual behavior. All other freedoms must be prohibited, regulated, controlled, or taxed.
