Re: Rush has done the impossible
Birth Control is more than just birth control, you know... or maybe you don't have a girlfriend or wife to understand that.
Also, when you start with birth control, where does it end...
and AGAIN, the Republicans are trying to regulate Americans while preaching less government involvement.
The problem is the drug companies that are overcharging for their pills and the insurance companies that are overcharging for their services.
The entire healthcare industry is a scam and the republicans take a HUGE cut from that scam...
The biggest reason I feel like they want to mess with the whole birth control thing is so that they can bump abortion numbers up so they can go after that again.
If I could get my Republicans without the religion... I'd probably be all for them... but I hate secular politics more than anything

Birth Control is prescribed for more than just contraception, you know...
Hell, Viagra was originally designed as a high blood pressure medication... and Rogaine was originally made as a vasodilator for high blood pressure too... the thing they found out is that they'll make more money selling it as an ED and hair regrowth medication, respectively. The boners and hair regrowth are simply SIDE EFFECTS.
So, guess what, your tax dollars are paying for some people to use viagra and rogaine...
Finasteride is prescribed for enlarged prostates. It's side effect is also hair regrowth and is sold as Propecia.
Also, you do realize it costs the taxpayers more money for children... especially if they're on welfare or in the system.
I get $3500 in tax relief for having a kid.
COCP (Oral contraception pills) are used to increase women's progresterone and other hormones. It's SIDE EFFECT is that it inhibits ovulation.
Some women have such painful periods that they NEED COCPs to function during their time of the month. I used to have a girlfriend who wasn't on the pill and she was practically bed ridden during her time of the month... and her parent's had a moral objection to the COCPs... once she turned 18, she started getting them herself and she was a totally different person. It allowed her to function.
After my wife got off COCPs, her hormone levels returned to normal and now she has ultra painful periods (compared to before) but the COCPs were making her retain weight and we decided to get her an IUD instead (which makes the periods even MORE painful for the first 6 months).
I find it interesting that men have ANY say in this whole thing... same with abortion... it's simply not our topic to discuss. If women truly have equal rights to men, we should let them have the rights to determine if they want COCPs and have abortions.

Sorry, but I can't agree with you on this one. I don't see him telling any lies. His opinion on the female (that he saw nothing wrong with her being called a slut), and how he believes that taxes shouldn't be used for strictly birth control reasons were opinions, not lies.

TAXPAYERS?
WTF does it say TAXPAYERS pay anything? other than Rush implying it?
The point, hell the ENTIRE FREAKING ARGUMENT is about Insurance covering Birth control. There is NOTHING about it being tax payers.
Hell the real problem is ACTUALLY about churches having insurance that offers to cover it, hell it isn't even new. The Catholic church ALREADY does it in over half the country.
Affordable Care Act Rules on Expanding Access to Preventive Services for Women | HealthCare.gov
This proposal is modeled on the most common exemption available in the 28 states that already require insurance companies to cover contraception. .

You said she was a slut and a nut for wanting her insurance company to help pay for something necessary for her good health. You also decided to blatantly lie that she was wanting 30k a year...You also claim that the gov, and therefore the tax payer, would be paying for meds when it would be her insurance company/health care provider.
Oh, and lay off the personal attacks. For the record, I slept last night, and I'm outside on wifi in a tree on my laptop.enf-Jesus its been like 12 minutes and you're already worried about stats?! :-P
Bigdog-Sweet home Alabama you are an idiot.

Re: Rush has done the impossible
So much fun to be had in this thread...
But mostly I was thinking that, as a man with an interest in vaginas, and also aware that many share my interests, why would we not go out of our way to make sure that the entire population of vagina owners was happy, healthy, and willing to share?
Brothers! Harken to my words: the ladies, they already got the vote. That ship has sailed.
How can we say "the women want us to pay for their birth control"? They make up more of "us" that we do. More women pay taxes than do men, and that has nothing to do with the job markets - it's a simple fact about the population. It's not about Them anymore because there is no longer a Them. We're all us now.
This is not a capitulation. Relationships based on parity are trickier than those based on domination, but there's more upside.
Seriously: Happy, Healthy, and Social Vaginas.
This is a good thing.
(also, it wouldn't hurt if you washed your dick now and then)
Cheers,
AetheLove
