Hillary Clinton and her feminist allies are denouncing what they call a "war on contraception” being waged by the Bush administration.
"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.”
[Via The World … IMHO]
Well I guess if selfishness and an avoidance of children has become an "American value" then maybe she is right. Though considering that they keep attacking the President for not being unable to win the war in Iraq they should subsequently have no problem with a "war on contraception" by what they see as his track record. Though I guess the war in Iraq and contraception are both related. A form of contraception is pulling out early.
If only the Bush administration really had a war on contraception, instead of only some minor skirmishes. The so-called war is suppose to be evidenced by the Bush administration’s abstinence program and the FDA and not approving plan B. So I guess their policy is that everybody not only must have sex, but that it also must be contraceptive. More accurate would be to say that Sen. Hillary and many like her are engaging in a war on chastity. The idea of no sex before marriage has become more than just quaint, but something that needs to be vigorously attacked. Dawn Eden’s book The Thrill of the Chaste garnered many attacks across the blogosphere when she printed parts from one of the chapters of her book. This unfortunately is not surprising and is to be expected in our sex-obsessed culture that demands pleasure without consequences.

Our culture is sex-obsessed unfortunately.
Hillary Blasts “War on Contraception”
HT: The World IMHO via The Curt Jester As you can see from the article, the war on contraception is more a war for common sense: The New York Times joined the fray with a May 7 article titled “The…
Well of course Hillary would be doing this. She had an abortion once, so she killed Chelesa’s older brother/sister. It is time to not throw any punches and expose her for who she is.
What war on contraception?
Any 15-year-old in this country can still march into PP, get a prescription for the Pill, and get it filled at any local pharmacy.
Give me a break.
A couple years ago a weekly paper asked the local congressional candidates what one federal program they most wanted to abolish. Diana DeGette (a Hilary ally) said it was sex education that promoted abstinence until marriage, not any of the vast number of other things that are actually destructive, but one of the few good things that the government attempts to do.
Hah! There is another Margaret here! Hello 🙂
Whenever I see “Hillary says”….that is my cue to scream and flee……
as they say in Monty Python and the Holy Grail…
“RUNAWAY!!!! RUNAWAY!!!!”
How come diversity only counts for race, culture and sexual attraction with this crowd? I have a divergent opinion from theirs regarding the use of contraception: I think it is wrong, and I think we have a few decades under our belt to prove its damage.
