commented on Fox Fave Brent Bozell Orders Workers To Stop With The Evil Birth Control 2012-02-25 14:54:20 -0500 · Flag

Perhaps he should make it company policy that women employees don’t use hormonal birth control, because clearly the wages Bozell pays them would be used for such sinful purchases. Next, start urine testing for artificial hormones in women employees, all in the name of religious freedom (to control others).

commented on Malkiin Calls Obama A "Religious Menace" 2012-02-23 17:29:57 -0500 · Flag

This kind of turned-on-its-head rhetoric, in which real science is condemned as religious belief—Wait, can that be right? I thought religion was good and science was bad! Now we hear that science is religion, and religious beliefs aren’t trustworty?? I guess.

My point is that this kind of thing is going to confuse the heck out of people. And that is the problem bubble-dwellers like Santorum have. They assume the rest of us ‘know’ the same things that they ‘know.’ Santorum isn’t talking to the rest of us, he’s talking to his base.

If as Beck says, everyone’s a Catholic, will they all stop using birth control in support of the Catholic belief that almost no one follows? THAT would be something. THAT would get noticed. Anything less seems disingenuous to me.

A real world solution, such as making contraceptives universally available to women just might reduce the illegitimacy rate, but the right wing would never consider such a reasonable and reality-based solution. No, they want Pres. Obama to go out and talk about it, or maybe even to lead the nation in a prayer about illegitimate births. DUH. It’s easy to see that the right wing and its hostility to birth control are the ones helping to promote unwanted pregnancy. The USA has twice the rate of unwanted pregnancy as other industrialized nations. All of which offer birth control as part of their public option or universal healthcare.

This guy is in favor of privatizing public schools, But if you privatize public school, how is it still public?

I think there is a lot to fix in public schools, but these people focus on the unions and money exclusively as though fixing that will solve all problems. That is simplistic and probably hides their real motivations

commented on Steve Doocy Claims Media Matters Waging War On Catholics 2012-02-16 17:07:03 -0500 · Flag

There are those who think Christian churches have been waging a war on women for a little over 2,000 years now. Add the Jewish and Muslim faiths to the list and its a worldwide conspiracy. Birth control is a direct counter-attack to that oppression.

In a world of 7 billion people, in a country where children cost $100,000 to raise, it is only in the idiot-bubble of the rightwing world that being “For” contraception is somehow a bad thing. The Republicans and Catholics have picked a bad issue to take sides on. While most women don’t have abortions, the vast majority of even the staunchest Catholics have intimate experience with the need for birth control!

Bolling used to be a commodities trader. Stock traders are the new lawyers, in other words, people we love to hate. He’s probably a bit scared of Waters because he actually is a demon.

I hope her brain is eventually successful in escaping! If I were a military man I’d be really pissed at Liz Trotta, who apparently is indulging her own disturbing rape fantasies.

Sadly violence of all kinds is up in the military. That’s the result of soldiers going repeatedly to war with no effort to deal with the emotional scars that result, so this dolt wants to blame it on women.

Sausage-fest indeed. This older male view of contraception is as out-of-touch with reality as you can get. Would we ever see Fox do a story about the growing use of Viagra by seniors by interviewing only women doctors, women psychiatrists and wives of ‘users’? I’m fairly certain the women impacted by Viagra would have differing views than the men who use it—(4 hour erections? I don’t think so!)

commented on Fox News Loses Its War On The Contraception Mandate 2012-02-14 11:00:55 -0500 · Flag

Apparently the only reasons for O’Reilly to cover a story are: a. Ratings b. Damage Obama. At least he’s honest about that. But he seems completely unaware that American women love our birth control and are really unhappy that we have to pay for it, while men get Viagra covered by insurance.

Its funny they just assume the board of directors is a group of highly qualified people, rather than friends and relatives of Zuckerberg (I really don’t know).
The right wing does not understand gender or racial bias, but they do understand how to cover their baser feelings of misogyny and racism with concerns about “fairness.” Large stockholders get to have a say in how a business is run.

So these people believe that God created the massively huge universe, including all the diverse life and intricate ecosystems of the earth in a scant 6 days, but is going to be completely stymied by a small hormone pill. Is this God all- powerful or weak-as-a-kitten, I can’t tell.

So a Methodist woman, working for a Catholic business will have to pay for her own birth control, but a catholic woman working for a Methodist business will get her birth control for free. Yes, religious people don’t have to be logical, in fact illogic seems to be the norm.

Is anti-contraceptive the same as anti-woman? I guess the Republican party will find out if they’ve narrowed their base even further with their effort to identify with only the most extreme Christian groups plays out.

How idiotic. American women love their birth control and Catholic women are no different. This is a women’s rights issue. If we had the public option for heatlh care this would not be an issue. Freedom of religion does not mean churches are free to rule people’s lives. Freedom of religion is about the individual choosing their religion. Ack the right wing believes in the power of corporations, not individuals.

The network which has been attacking the president for the past 3.5 years with the vilest accusations they can come up with, and then airing those insults and accusations for all the world to hear 24/7 — that network does not give a hoot about America’s prestige.
