"In a spectacular act of complicity with the religious right, the Department of Health and Human Services Monday released a proposal that allows any federal grant recipient to obstruct a woman's access to contraception."
whut? You mean they will turn the grant recipients into a type of police?
And..while were at it... rolling us back to pre-1920 something when women had no right to vote or rights of their own. Aw heck, why not take us back a little further and make us a piece of property again.
So, uhm they would leave contraception up to the men - or worse, they risk world anihilation from disease because women had no way to protect themselves and their men? (I know, that last one was extreme)
