Bush: Birth control = abortion

The proposal defines abortion as follows: “any of the various procedures — including the prescription, dispensing and administration of any drug or the performance of any procedure or any other action — that results in the termination of the life of a human being in utero between conception and natural birth, whether before or after implantation.”

Mary Jane Gallagher, president of the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association, which represents providers, said, “The proposed definition of abortion is so broad that it would cover many types of birth control, including oral contraceptives and emergency contraception.”

“We worry that under the proposal, contraceptive services would become less available to low-income and uninsured women,” Ms. Gallagher said.

Indeed, among other things the proposal expresses concern about state laws that require hospitals to provide emergency contraception to rape victims who request it.

"Expresses concern"? Are you fucking kidding me?

Wow, it sounds like the theocrats won't go gently into that good night. I like to think it smacks more of desperation than anything else. But it shows you intentions, and should make voting for McCain that much more unattractive.

I think that anyone who has to go off the pill because the president makes it illegal should show up at his doorstep with baby in arms expecting it to be cared for
