Yes, Biden and Obama admitted a mistake in the first policy...and they corrected it.
That is what good leaders do.
And yet the Right cries...because that is what they do.
But you probably think admitting a mistake is a sign of weakness.edit on 3-3-2012 by OutKast Searcher because: (no reason given)

I understand your frustration
It's that old tunnel vision issue I posted about earlier
Taking Birth Control Pills is not an indication of someone's sexual activities!

We never used birth control, but even if we did, why the hell should I expect someone else to pay for it. I don't see birth control as health care. I see it as pregnancy prevention, not health care.
Oh nooooooooo! You are arguing the common sense part of the story.
Fluke is playing the - victim - for Obama. Liberals love to hide behind - victims- .
It's obvious to everyone that Fluke should pay for her own recreation.
Go ahead and have sex. Just don't expect other people to pay for it.

Birth control does not cost $1,000 a year for a student. Try CVS or Rite Aid or
maybe...........abstain from sex until you graduate.

Well done Rush Limbaugh! Now - everyone - knows who Fluke is and what her
BS is all about. Now it's a joke.

Without my birth control, my hormones get so f*cked up I will go months without a period. Without my friends birth control, a VIRGIN mind you, she will bleed more in a month than she wont and her endometriosis will flare up. Some other women use it for ovarian cysts. Some use it for severe menstrual cramps or severe acne.
Birth control, depending on the type (even over the counter ones) can cost from about $60 a month to $150 a month. That equals over $3,000 a year.
Please, do some research on a topic before you talk about a topic you know nothing about.
Having an unwanted baby IS a life-shattering situation. We're talking about preventative care here, not comfort. Smoking and bad eating habits, on the other hand, are all about comfort.

I listened to her statements, was interesting how she came up with the costs, complaining how students just can't afford them...well, I was a student, if I couldn't afford things, I didn't get them...while sex is fun, it's a choice...not a right that needs to be financed by others.
Having hormonal problems, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and various other medical issues are not a choice. Being on birth control does NOT equal having sex.
Does Sandra Fluke have hormonal problems or ovarian cysts? Are you trying to
-change the game-? Nice try.
Sandra Fluke should - abstain - from sex if she can't afford it.
I'm not trying to change anything. I'm educating ignorant people like you.
Where did she say she's having "so much sex she can't afford birth control"?

Birth control is --- C H E A P - !!! - Stop playing the - V I C T I M - card.
It will not work. You blew it. If you insist on the Public Option then
move to Canada.
Find other funding. Stop crying on the shoulders of the US taxpayers.

ObamaCare will be found to be unconstitutional by SCOTUS. Get used to it.

How about because I do not want to pay for it for her...its like the inner city woman having baby after baby not knowing who the father is or where and collecting federal assistance. You could argue that these woman need it, but do you think they would use it if they had access to it...?
At what point does it become the individuals fault for their actions...? Its not for the Government to fix.
I get a lot of action when I am on leave and I don't knock any woman up, I buy my own condoms...
This is BS...

Don't they have - birth control - at Planned Parenthood?
Planned Parenthood has locations in Washington DC.
You are losing this argument.

NO, birth control is NOT cheap in any way shape or form. Without my insurance coverage, my birth control would cost up to $60 each month.
There is a birth control type out there called Tadalafil that will cost $250 per month here in the US.

You trip, fall, and break your leg, thats what insurance is for. You get a disease, thats what insurance is for. You want to have sex out of your own decision, and want to use contraceptives, thats not what health insurance is for. Insurance is for the most part, privately owned, and the church is separate from the government, so the government cannot force either to pay for contraceptives. The government shouldnt be giving them out either, as i dont want to be paying for someones sex. If someone wants to have sex, let them do it on their own paycheck.

If she wants to have sex and not get pregnant maybe she should buy her own damn pills or use a condom.
