Of course, this completely dovetails with the left's belief that people lack either the intelliegence or are deliberately manipulated by the evil companies to act in a certain way. You do realize that Bill simply couldn't control himself in that throbbing moment with Monica.
You should read the papers more thoroughly BH, her complaint was on behalf of a fellow sudent that the pill would have helped. By not getting it her ovaries had to be removed and now she is sterile, unable to have the children the righties feel women should be popping out yearly.

Billo was stupid to succumb but as everyones seems to have forgotteh, Monica declared to a friend that she was going to Washington to earn her presidential knee pads.

In case it has escaped the notice of your pea sized brain all we have suggested is that the topic be left up to women and their doctors. I am not a doctor nor do I play one on TV.

Nice to see that the righties never do anything stupid, or make a move they will regret later on. Must make life really easy, being perfect and all.

This isn't so much about birth control, or insurance, as it is about politics. And Rush managed to blunder around and hand a win to the Donks.

Nope, Pelosi only set up her conference after Ms. Fluke was denied the opportunity to testify at Issa's little farce. Note that he only had a bunch of tired old men testifying and not a doctor in the lot.

No ringers here Chas.

The big difference is I'm not dropping pups all over the place. And if you're too poor, or stupid, or both to come up with the price of the pills, the last thing you need is a litter of pups that society will have to support.

For what it is worth the last estimate of the cost for a woman over her reproductive years was $13,000.

We may not have Limburger with us much longer, his sponsors are leaving the sinking ship.

Not only are his sponsors bailing, but other republicans are coming out stating that he went too far this time.

Out of all the idiotic things Limbaugh has come out with and this is the first time his party is publicly calling him out. what took them so long?!!!

Probably, did you ever run across a drug company that ever sold anything at cost +10%.
