please provide links where it says that government money pays for contraceptives and pp provides one year of free contraceptives
impotence is a medical condition- sexual activity is not. -huh? - the only purpose of viagra is to allow sexual activity and what about the fact that at least two people benefit from contraception
On Thursday, Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the House minority leader, said in a fund-raising appeal that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s “women’s health rapid response fund” had raised $1.1 million

Contraception is free for most people in the UK. What boggles my mind is the same people that frown on abortion also refuse to countenance free contraception.

limburger seems to be ignorant of how birth control pills work, he must think that they are used like condoms
but then that is the rep stronghold, ignorance, especially sexual ignorance
not to mention his attackers......
Limburger is so repulsive I bet he pays his wife for sex.

Only you could turn this whole story into anything that OBAMA needs apologies for. Absolutely no one is saying anything negative about Obama calling the student - well, except the board's most ardent Obama hater, that is. LOL

Din ding ding, we have a winner here, people. The immediate descent into personal attack from our resident rush clone.
You really are a simpleton aren't you? This was NEVER about taxpayers paying for birthcontrol. This was about insurance coverage of contraception. If the Republicans were truly concerned about some moral sex issue, they would have included language in the bill that would have allowed employers to opt out of coverage of viagra as well. Funny that was missing. The bill was just a blanket opt out of contraception coverage, without exceptions for medically necessary birth control, for things like cysts.Default
So, yes, referring to someone as a slut who is wanting to take money from one group (tax payers) to give to herself, so that she can engage in sex, is inflammatory language and bad analogy- But NO different then what was said about Meg Whitman and was defended as justified on this very board.
So, Limbaugh, the "private citizen", cannot infer a woman demanding free birth control, at tax payers expense, who, for all intents and purposes, is asking us to pay for her sex life. No way can he compare that with payment for sex!
Like I said, the faux outrage this is conjuring is pathetic in light of liberal double standards.

As for Brown’s staff member referring to Whitman as a whore, I read the whole thing, and this is what I think. He didn’t just come out of nowhere and say “oh that f’ing Whitman, what a whore”. He is saying they should go after her for being a whore because of pandering to a faction who apparently gave her money. I have no way of knowing that he doesn’t routinely refer to men in the same circumstances as whores. This is a fine distinction, but it’s an important one to me. I use the word whore in a non-gendered way. I call male politicians whores all of the time. I shouldn’t though.
Wow you are on a simpleton roll. Did you really just say that impotence is a medical condition and then try to remove it from sex. The ONLY reason to cure impotence is so men can fuck (sexual activity).Government money (the peoples taxes) paying birth control coverage is a taxpayer cost.
Justifying coverage by that kind of logic is equal to the government mandating the cost of protective gear for athletes- One cost of protective gear is cheaper then covering one major injury.
Planned parenthood provides every woman with 1 year of free contraceptives.
Not all insurers pay for viagra- but impotence is a medical condition- sexual activity is not.
No one is denying the benefits of contraceptive use.

Icedancer and PmP are the quintessential republican primary voters. More concern about social issues like sex than with the economy. It is why Santorum is picking up steam. The simpletons in the party on the far right are the ones that come out in droves to vote in primaries, so the candidate that plays to their obsessions about other peoples sex lives are the ones that get the votes.
Impotence is a medical condition that only relates to sexual activity. You are splitting hairs. Men want viagra so they can get hard enough to penetrate a woman's vagina. Viagra= sexual activity. Now you are playing dumb.First of all, most insurance companies already provide contraception care. THIS is about the federal government forcing religious organizations such as hospitals; thrift stores etc. to purchase insurance that provides contraception. This is a direct assault on their first amendment protection against such action!
Viagra is not covered in every policy and the argument you present is a canard.
Viagra is specific to impotence, which unlike sex IS a medical condition. In the same way that a woman who just wants a breast augmentation must pay for it herself UNLESS she needs it for reconstructive purposes after having undergone cancer treatment.
