If men think pregnancy is so important, why don't they have the babies?

The Quiet Campaign Against Birth Control
by Cristina Page
"At National Right to Life’s conference this year, Mitt Romney set out to convince anti-abortion leaders he was their candidate. At the podium, he rattled off his qualifications. To a layman’s ears, it sounded pretty standard for abortion politics. He wants to overturn Roe v. Wade. He supports teaching only abstinence to teens.

But for those trained to hear the subtleties, Mr. Romney was acknowledging something more. He implied an opposition to the birth control pill and a willingness to join in their efforts to scale back access to contraception. There are code phrases to listen for - and for those keeping score, Mr. Romney nailed each one.

One code phrase is: “I fought to define life as beginning at conception rather than at the time of implantation.” The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists defines pregnancy as starting at implantation, the first moment a pregnancy can be known. Anti-abortion advocates want pregnancy to start at the unknown moment sperm and egg meet: fertilization. They’d also like you to believe, despite evidence to the contrary, that the birth control pill prevents that fertilized egg from implanting in the womb."

Well ladies, one way to fight back.....just say no, I have a headache, I'm tired, etc etc. Did you ever notice the folks who are anti-contraception are mostly men? Why? Well, if they can get us back into the home, barefoot and pregnant, we lose power. Better yet, if the lowly masses (that's the middle class and poor) have no access to contraception, we'll have lots of babies and end up in dire poverty, easier to manipulate. Pawns in the larger scheme of the PNAC group.
