Apparently as a parting “Fuck You” to women’s reproductive rights, the Bush administration is toying with the idea of classifying birth control (the pill, IUD’s, the patch) as abortion.
Just in case you thought you read that incorrectly…yes, I did just say, classifying birth control as abortion.
I wish I was making this up. I truly do.
Apparently our commander-in-fuckhead isn’t sastisfied with only 750,000 teenage pregnancies every year in the United States. He wants to be the hero that reverses the decade-long trend of teen pregnancy reduction. I mean, even more than he already has.
While I don’t consider abortion to be an option I would ever choose for myself, I don’t disapprove of others doing it. Pretending to know what is morally right for others has never been a strong suit of mine.
I am, however, an advocate for birth control as a part of sex education. It just makes good sense.
Honestly, anyone who believes their teenage children aren’t having sex like bunny rabbits is living in the dark age. My best advice is put your teenage daughter on birth control as soon as she gets a boyfriend. Not for any moral reason, just plain common fucking sense.
We all hope and wish that men would take more responsibility for the consequences of sex, but unfortunately, in the history of the world…that has hardly been the case.
In fact, while watching the season finale of “Baby Borrowers” a bit flashed across the screen that only 8 out of 10 teenage males accept fatherhood of their children. This stat, coupled with all the research going into the race and class issues surrounding teenage pregnancy, is frustrating at best.
Seriously – isn’t there some way to put this incredible puke bag in check for the next four months. FOUR MONTHS is all. I’ve had enough of Democrats turning a blind eye.
I wouldn’t exactly object to kids at this point, but I do object to the President implying that my lack of having children is immoral. By his standards, every period a woman has (without conceiving) is abortion. The pull out method is abortion. Having sex during prime conception time and yet somehow still not getting pregnant is abortion.
The next thing would be for men to be held liable for any ejaculation that doesn’t land inside a vagina. In that case – Condoms should be illegal.
Dicks should be illegal. And President Bush is the biggest one.

I’m super glad to hear you touching on this a bit, because I was pissed when I heard the news as well. This regime is dangerous. Let us know what we can do to try to stop this from happening.
This is just ridiculous. You’d think the government would be more concerned with the costs of single mothers and families who can’t afford children, but instead, HHS, which, by the way, is led by a Mormon, wants us all to be pregnant all the time.
I especially like the bit where it points out that using the new definitions, a woman can’t prove that she’s not pregnant, since there is no test to see if you are carrying a fertilized egg.
I thought the government was insane after I read about how they refuse to okay the male birth control pill, but this is fucking ridiculous.
