Craven morons. Americans aren’t as stupid as you worthless bastards think.
“Over the counter” takes it off the list of things an insurance policy covers, correct?
In an attempt to woo center of the road voters, he will piss off the anti-choice right. The anti-choice right will hold a grudge and may not vote for him. Schadenfreude. Sheer Schadenfreude.
How about prescription-free access to meth, morphine, marijuana, valium and codeine?
I don’t think so. The hard core anti’s will feel comfortable making sure their local stores don’t carry them. In small towns I think they would have that power.
Yes.
So this is Reince Priebus’ new and improved Republican messaging for the wimmins?
Apparently. It is such an obvious, superficial ploy to win votes and we “wimmins” just aren’t that stupid or easily fooled. Then, there are medical issues (There is a reason many kinds of birth control require a prescription) and the fact that his approach would exclude insurance coverage. We also need to ask, “Sir, are you now campaigning for the slut vote?”
“I believe any adult who wants to purchase contraception should have the right to purchase it without a prescription as long as she’s my mistress.”
Actually I like the “free over the counter birth control” option and think we should all jump on it. It gets women what they need. Clearly states that the US of A supports birth control and women’s needs. Solves the Hobby Lobby problem and the Pope’s issues. Gets us one step closer to “single payer.” Makes the GOTP have to face off the religious nuts. What’s not to like!!! Just toss the tar baby back to the GOTP by saying, “Me, too! And, about time you guys started to respect women’s rights!!!”
The problem is there is a reason a doctor must prescribe birth control - many kinds result in sometimes life-threatening side effects and/or complications. Not to mention, what would a woman just self-insert an IUD?
No. Medical monitoring is wise and needed.
Actually I think any women, whether they screw me or not, has the right to decide if and when they want a child. It’s just something my mother told me long ago.
OK. The “free over the counter with RX” works for me.
Sure does.
Agree, this guy is engaging in the most cynical kind of pandering, with potentially dangerous consequences if his proposal is adopted.
It’s just a game to these guys – people’s coverage, women’s health, etc.
Some so-called politicians will do absolutely anything to get elected.
If they are teabaggers, why do they always claim to be Republicans? Why not just be what they claim to be?
Ladies, we need you now more than ever.
It’s a pitiful and paradoxical attempt to advocate for “freedom”. Too bad he will attract lead pipe religious thugs to attack his candidacy. Send us pix of your contusions, good ole boy!
Crooked. As. Fuck.
We all know that once they’re in power, they will move to enact Christian Sharia.
