so, the women live with the consequences of their deceit if they failed to after assuring their partnerAnd men rely on women to take their pill too, so?
what does it matter. if they are older teens, would it make any differenceYoung teens, how young are we talking about here,
you got me. no way have any young, unwed daughters of good parents gotten pregnant... and doesn't that really come under the umbrella of effective parenting?
let us know what you findBy the way, I'd like to see that study by planned parenthood. Do they mean every 100 times having sex or 4 out of 100 over the course of the sexual relationship?
yes, it would be much cheaper for the public to incur the subsequent medical costs of the baby, and the ensuing welfare benefits emanating from the birth of an unplanned childI think kids should use condoms; I believe that is reasonable but I'm not going to force it on anyone, or mandate that insurance companies pay for it.
to the point that more good than harm is the resultMy God people, how far do you want government in your lives? Tim-
My point went straight over your head didn't it? My point was that it is absurd to believe that abstinence is a practical policy instead of contraceptives in today's time.

why would we spend our efforts determining how to supplant the efforts of those with the means and understanding, those who can address the issue themselvesSo many assumptions, and conclusory statements that I couldn't even begin to answer them?? It sounds to me that you would prefer that ONLY demographics that are unable to support an unplanned pregnancy would benefit from such a mandate? How very Sanger of you. She too believed like Darwin in Eugenics..

Both goals are to prevent pregnancy. Why in all of God's creation do we need government to mandate how we decide to push our moral views towards sex upon our children? Given the above, can someone explain to me how the Obama administration believes this is within its power to legislate?

In her day, women lied about having sex a lot more.

Why? How are the two methods dissimilar? You still have to instill the value of either method into the little brains of the kiddies, no? Just coz the school or whatever pushes condoms doesn't mean kids will use them.
Liberal position:
1. Don't want kids having sex.
2. If they do I don't want them getting pregnant.
3. Kids are going to have sex regardless of what Mom and Dad think.
4. Push condom use or birth control pills.
Religious Conservative position:
1. I don't want my kids having sex.
2. If they do I don't want them getting pregnant.
3. Kids are going to have sex regardless of what Mom and Dad think.
4. Teach your children how to safely prevent pregnancy without the use of contraceptives.

Foster Friess: In my day, women "used Bayer aspirin for contraceptives" - Political Hotsheet - CBS News
Foster Friess, a prominent backer of Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum, raised eyebrows Thursday when he offered up his own idea for a possible contraceptive method: "This contraceptive thing, my gosh, it's so... inexpensive. Back in my days, they used Bayer aspirin for contraceptives."
Friess's implication is that if women hold aspirin between their legs, they won't open them.
OMG OMG OMG OMG. Wait for it.... Andrea Mitchell, what could she have said?
The only practical use of having sex is procreation. Any other use of sex is indulgence, which isn't necessarily wrong, but it isn't absolutely necessary. If someone can't afford a 3 dollar pack of condoms, and doesn't want to take the risk of pregnancy, it would be best not to have sex until such condoms can be obtained.
Like what?
What can a car do that public transportation can't?

A) Where do you get that fact B) in whose day C) who is always telling young girls they can't get pregnant the first time, they can't get pregnant until they're 14 etc...
The whole point is that Friess implied that if women kept their legs shut they wouldn't get pregnant, which goes against everything else men tell else they want, just look at nearly any magazine advertisement aimed at women, go to any bar etc... Mitchell was able to hold the most poise possible in this situation.
And the best way to 100% prevent obesity is to stop everyone from eating.
I think you're on to something.
Hmmm, I know how to achieve world peace: Everybody stop fighting!
Hmmm, we're low on resources: Everybody stop wasting ****!
Hmm, what about theft: Everybody stop stealing ****!
Hmm, what about rape: Everybody stop raping!
And murder: Everybody stop murdering
There. I've solved all the world's problems. You can all go home now. Now, what am i gonna have for lunch?
Just to jump in here -- this post confused me. No one is being forced to use birth control.
How does this regulation change that relationship between parents and children?
You should read what he said then. Because he's implying that its impossible to get pregnant if you don't have sex, which is true.
Not a Santorum fan in the least, but I thought the joke was hilarious, some people need to loosen up a little.
He was simply implying that the "old school" method of birth control was to not **** around. I think he's horribly out of touch with reality, but I thought the joke itself was humorous.I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that it was a joke. However, I don't get what the joke is.
A My God people, how far do you want government in your lives?
