The political season hit another low today when a Vermont legistator claimed that women using birth control pills resulted in men getting prostate cancer! I hope her outhouse door hits her in the butt as she is laughed out of office! Here's the link and a snippet......

It isn’t entirely clear why the use of birth control pills would affect cancer in men, but the authors, Dr. David Margel, a urologist at Princess Margaret Hospital, and Dr. Neil Fleshner, head of urology at the University Health Network, in Toronto, suggest that it may have to do with environmental exposure: estrogen in birth control pills may be released in urine and end up in the water supply

A couple quick things here...
I am an unapologetic conservative.
I am NOT a republican, although I vote that way as often as other parties taken together.
If you'd made your headline 'Republican Politicians' and not the generalization of conservatives, I'd pretty much agree. Then again....both major parties suck and if you watch closely, the big D's and big R's that fight like cats and dogs become little d's and little r's after-hours to play golf and have drinks. Funny that..... You'd almost think they were simply different public faces of the same wooden nickle.
You know he was a "dimocrat", right?

personally, I believe that the "party system" is corrupt to the core and the only way to get in the game is belong to their club. And you are right I should have titled it "Republican Politicians" ......... republicans and democrats today are all too willing to give up their right so they can take somebody elses today ....
