I know that is what you are referring to. But friends have seen video of Santorum saying if elected he will give every state the right to ban birth control. Also, another video where he said birth control gives women the freedom to have sex for more than the two reasons they are supposed to. Conjugal rights of their husbands and for procreation. This is not helpful. Though this is not part of the Republican platform it does hurt us with women. All women.
I agree. Those kinds of statements, assuming they’re in context, are not helpful. My statement applies to every issue not just birth control. Defenders of freedom need to do a better job of reframing issues. Too often we accept the ridiculous MSM premise that if you’re not for forcing people to subsidize something then you’re “against” it.
