Isn't this the same guy who called Chelsea Clinton ugly in the 90's? This guy is nothing but a bully who's not above bullying women and children.

That a scumbag like him can become some sort of reverent icon in this country says a lot about the country...

I don't really care, but I do like that sponsors will pull ads from this type of thing but not for things like the million mom snots for Ellen.

Shows that it's not just based on number of people complaining, but actually what they are complaining about.

I think most of them just want to see it regulated efficiently, so stuff like the 2008 collapse and the gulf oil spill doesn't keep happening.

Not that its right to call people names in public like that but I mean the whole core reason for taking birth control is so women(and the men they sleep with) can have sex more/anytime they want without getting pregnant.

Yes, because no women take birth control pills to control PCOS and endometriosis.

Again, women are prescribed birth control pills for conditions NOT related to preventing pregnancy.

So it's not the 'whole core reason' for taking the pills - some women need them for other health reasons.

Of course this lawyer was complaining before congress about a college medical plan for students not covering birth control. Those plans are intended for catastrophic coverage and not everyday coverage, if they were for everyday care the students would not be able to afford them.

This whole thing is a load of crap and Limbaugh, like the idiot he is, spoke about something completely unrelated.

So it's not the 'whole core reason' for taking the pills - some women need them for other health reasons.




My doc prescribed them to me to help ease menstrual cramps. The cramps were debilitating- would literally take me out of commission for a full day, sometimes two. Some people have migraines so bad that they throw up because of the pain, and that's what it was like for me, only because the cramps were so painful.

So for me, and many other women, it has absolutely nothing to do with not wanting to get pregnant.

As ridiculous as it is, though, you know what would solve the problem? Start doing separate packaging. Label one "birth control" and label the other "hormone treatments" and make everyone cover the "hormone treatments" (ostensibly for a medical condition and not birth control). Then the religious nuts would have to quit bitching. "But we don't belieeeeeeve in birth control!" "Excellent, we're not asking you to, or to cover it, only to cover this separate legitimate treatment option for other conditions."

Yup. The real story is that the Republicans chose to have 5 males testify and excluded the only female. A bit odd considering the topic. I'm serious the Republicans should be looking at a White House win plus some congressional pickups if they only had a clue. The Democrats, as politicians, are making this work for them.

What I want to know is why is someone complaining that birth control is so expensive, when you can get a generic version at Target for $4.00?

Edit: Obviously there may be a reason for some women to take a specific name brand to address a specific medical condition, but for the vast majority of women, the $4.00 version should work just fine.

MEDROXYPROGESTERONE 5 MG - Tablet 30 90 - -
MEDROXYPROGESTERONE 10 MG

Estradiol is for women undergoing menopause. It's not birth control.

Medroxyprogesterone is also NOT birth control.

So no, Target does not offer birth control for 4$ generic.

What I want to know is why is someone complaining that birth control is so expensive, when you can get a generic version at Target for $4.00?

Edit: Obviously there may be a reason for some women to take a specific name brand to address a specific medical condition, but for the vast majority of women, the $4.00 version should work just fine.


$4 at Target? LOLWUT?

That sounds like an apology, to me.


It's easy to be sorry after you've been caught.

He's been offensive hateful jackass for decades. If he was truly sorry he'd stop.

Yes, because no women take birth control pills to control PCOS and endometriosis.

Oh yea we forgot, Republicans are allowed to be idiots say stupid crap and get a free pass.

Palin did, what she did to herself.

Bad example dude.

Palin spoke. She did that all on her own. If she wants to be stupid, she should stay in her backyard where she can see Russia and quit being an attention whore.

There is a reason why there are so many birth control pills: the vast majority of women cannot take the same pill.

I can take one pill that will work perfectly for me, switch to another for cost or lower dosage of hormone, and it could make me very ill. This exact thing happened to me. I switched to try a lower dosage and it ended up making me mental.

It goes against my better judgement but I'll comment on Limbaugh


His apology is genius trolling. It apologizes for the language but not the content. So it was okay to make assumptions about this woman's sexual behaviors. It is okay to ask for video in compensation for contraceptives. It is okay to assume sex is bad and women, not both genders, are responsible.

But one should use the proper language when making these statements.

Liberals know this but are often too angry to articulate that the message is offensive more so than the language. So they remain incensed, which is what Limbaugh wants.

Conservatives fall back on "he apologized " and think we should move on. They blame any continuation on the liberals and the media.

Brilliant trolling really

The Pill is the ONLY thing that ever worked on my acne. I wish I could have taken it as a teenager -- it would have spared me so much pain and humiliation, but my parents are staunch Catholics and they would be horrified.
