But it’s a stupid issue. Why should conrtaceptives be a political issue, at all? It’s a medical and moral issue. It’s only political, now, because of Democrat stupidity, getting Government involved in healthcare. I think it’s a great issue the way it is, now, for conservatives to “demagogue”, since it highlights the idiocy of making medicine political.

What, does Jindal think he’ll get the “womyn’s” vote with this? Because he won’t.

Why do we want to out-stupid the Democrats? Over the counter means pretty much all medical (and parental) control is given up. B.C. is as safe as cough-drops? For 12-year-olds? I don’t believe it, and frankly, I think its effect on our society has been devastating. I suppose we’re leaving a pretty nice country for the Mohammadens or the hispanics, if they can keep it.

The recent election kind of shows that it is not currently a good issue for us. This sort of thing helped Obama win and win big with women. As long as it is a prescription covered by insurance, Obama can continue using the pill as a freebie to buy votes. The idea is if it goes 'over the counter' that it is no longer a prescription drug and insurance is out of the loop. Therefore no more freebies for Obama to give away.

Sounds like you are just personally opposed to contraception - or at least the pill. I get your point about low birth rates of traditional Americans changing the face of the country, unfortunately there is no going back where things like the pill are concerned. Might as well make it 'over the counter' since every woman that wants it gets it anyway. OTC means Obama can't use it to buy votes.

I agree. Tax dollars shouldn't be involved. If women want sex, they can buy their own pills. No one is forcing them, by law, to have it. It's their own free will. Taxpayers should also be allowed their free will not to pay for it.

It's political because others are financially enslaved by it. Washington controls the finances and the slaves, so it gets to decide what the slaves will labor for and what the slaves will not labor for.
