It's all about the 'boner' pills!

(You know, the same stuff found in Rush's carry-on bag by Homeland when he came back from his D.R. vacation, don't 'cha know. :-) Cialis, Viagra, etc....

Back when (first Bush administration years and onto Clinton) the aging good ole boys made such a BIG STINK about forcing all America's health insurance plans to cover their (99% recreational probably) boner pills (and succeeded in forcing insurance companies to pay for their drug-enabled recreational sex) there was a counter reaction from women.

Who argued (logically enough) that if boner pill mandates were forced on the insurance companies then birth control should be too.

(Since birth control coverage actually has ancillary health benefits, not to mention lowering costs to the rate payers themselves as PREGNANCIES and ABORTIONS are both far, far, more costly then birth control services are.)

This entire argument which the liberals try to make is completely bogus and false... this so called "contraception issue" has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with women or with contraception, or whether or not the taxpayers should pay for it, it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with women's rights, that's also a completely false premise... the TRUTH is that it's not even a "contraception issue" in any way as the liberals try to frame it, that's only their attempt to scare women away from the Republicans...

Here's why:

First of all, it's already legal everywhere in this country for a woman, or anyone, to go to the local pharmacy or Walgreens and purchase a contraceptive or get birth control pills, no one is stopping anyone from buying their own contraception, so where is the problem? Where is anyone's rights to contraception being denied? The issue doesn't exist...so why are the liberals making that an issue? The issue doesn't exist in the real world, but only in the demented minds of the liberals... the entire real issue is whether or not the federal government can tell a religious organization that they MUST do something which violates that organization's religious precepts and beliefs... this is another federal government MANDATE which 100% undermines the long accepted and long standing Constitutional right for a credible and recognized religious organization to practice its own religious precepts without government interference... that's the REAL argument, but the liberals try to frame it to make it look like something very different, they want to make it a political hot button for the election but their argument is incredibly dishonest and fraudulent... it's another federal hoax and an extension of the oscumbag health care scam...
