While I don't think it's the governments position to be buying anyone birth control.. I don't see anything "immoral" or wrong about it.
But it's OK for the government to buy men Viagra?

If what Ms. Fluke is suggesting eventually becomes a bill and is passed into law, then when the healthcare law goes into full affect, it will be paid for by tax payers.
Remember the phrase "we need to pass the bill to see what's in it"
Well,
SURPRISE!

You are kidding?????
People have to accept responsibility for their actions. Don't expect Santa gov to pay for your booze, cigs, house, car or birth control. Want birth control? Get a job and buy it or ask Mom or Dad for the $ not Uncle Sam, or the Christian university you attend.

It is not just birth control. The issue is the government being involved in things it has no business doing.
We have zilch private industry in the US, but have a government that is the biggest employer in the country. The bigger and more bloated it gets the more rampant the corruption grows.
Face it, we have let the government coddle us to the degree that we are in it's strangle hold. Why in the world do we need Lunch Police at schools?
What does the Department of Energy do beside shuffle paper? FDA is getting it's back scratched so well by Monsanto that it is killing us off with all their protection.
The government owns us, but we are too high maintenance and our economy can not support all the entitlements. So the prevailing trend is to eliminate the excess population to curb this problem.
Where do the entitlements end? They don't, they just keep growing.
My next door neighbor was telling me how he liked prison life. Last I heard one in 100 people are in jail in the US. Yet the banksters and politicians they are in bed with that are raping all of us are living the high life while the pot growers are doing hard time with the murderers.
All we are entitled to is life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Liberty is fading fast as we allow this sinister government to own a bigger piece of our freedom with each passing day.
God help us all when the economy flat lines and the SHTF, you can bet we will be fighting a new war or be heading into FEMA camps or both.
My rant.edit on 3/2/2012 by sad_eyed_lady because: spelling
Last time I checked the only person who spoke for me, was me. Against my better judgement, let's get to it.
First of all, birth control is a personal choice. Not a human right . The problem here is, that Government is involved in health insurance to begin with. They should not be. They have no right to be, and they have no business involving themselves in it. Get Government out of the way, and there will be some company who sees this issue as a way to get more customers and they will offer birth control as part of their policy.
The issue here is that Government is involved in marriage. Fact is "marriage" is a religious issue. It is a religious ceremony that consist of two people making an agreement with God to spend their lives together and be faithful to one another. THE ONLY reason this is even an issue is because of what marriage means in terms of taxes. Married people can file head of household and get tax breaks while single people can not. Married people get plenty of deductions, that single people do not get. The only people who argue the issue of gay marriage, which is exactly what your post is describing gay marriage and not just being a homosexual, is the religious. Normal everyday people do not care one bit about this issue. As far as the majority are concerned, we don't care who you marry.
There is a difference between help and entitlement. Just handing out money because someone is out of work is foolish. If you really want to help people, you will give them welfare to help them out and you will give them job training so hopefully they will not have to fall on hard times again. Interestingly enough, it is Conservatives who usually mention job training and the liberals who fight that.
This is a flat out lie. No one has said close the boarders and do not allow immigrants in. The problem and the issue here is what to do with the millions of people who already came here illegally and have been here for years. The majority Conservative view is to deport those who can here illegally, let them get in line, and come back in a legal fashion.
You are joking here, right? I mean first you tell us how conservatives need to "stay above the pettiness" then you go on stating petty drivel, such as

Okay, all of you that are mad at Rush and saying "why would anyone deny a woman BC.. Howabout you hang out at the local pharmacy and tell every woman buying birth control items that you will pay for it..
Because this is pretty much what the media and Obama are heralding...(and that woman), That tax payers should pay for any woman's birth control.. Or did I misinterpret this?
