George W. Bush and the subjugation of women

Here they go again. The Bushies want to take us back four decades and make us give up control over our bodies and our reproductive lives. According to Reuters, they are pushing a change to Health and Human Services (HHS) regulations which would undermine state laws that ensure that women can get contraception when they want or need it.

The proposal redefines abortion to include several types of birth control, including the pill, emergency contraception, and IUDs.

So, in Bush's world, birth control = abortion. Talk about throwing out the baby with the bathwater! (Pun unintended.)

So if Bush's two 20-something daughters are using birth control, they're essentially having abortions every month, per their father's lexicon. To him, everything is black and white. And here we are.
