War on Contracpetion?

June 28th, 2006 by admin

Yes, Hillary Clinton among others says that there’s a War on Contraception.

“There’s a quiet war going on in America against the most basic rights of Americans to make their own personal decisions about family planning,” Clinton wrote in a mass e-mail.

“This war against contraception endangers basic American values.”

A basic American value now is deciding to prevent pregnancy using artificial means.

At a June 13 meeting of the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association, Clinton declared: “We know it’s not just ‘choice’ that is under attack, it’s contraception which is under attack.”

Hmm, with contraception so readily available, how does this even make sense? Per the article, because the Bush administration’s promoting “abstinence education,” the FDA won’t permit the open sale (read o-t-c sale) of the morning after pill, and some states have ruled that a pharmacist whose religion prohibits him from selling contraception has the right to refuse to sell it.

One really encouraging quote, in my opinion, comes from a NARAL nut:

“They’ve by and large won the abortion law. They are just waiting for an 86-year-old justice to step down,”

I say, good news. If they think we’ve by and large won on abortion, maybe they’ll give up fighting on it…or, even better, maybe they’ll keep fighting and keep proving how absurd their positions are.
