Republicans, working for you…not so much

It’s hard to sense a pattern here. Republicans who go on a diatribe against Janet Jackson’s exposed areola bling, have no problem collecting singles and fives out of the g-string of the woman working the pole at a Las Vegas strip club.
Meanwhile, the same crowd is making it harder for American women to do the basics – all because sex is icky to them:
The Department of Health and Human Services is reviewing a draft regulation that would deny federal funding to any hospital, clinic, health plan or other entity that does not accommodate employees who want to opt out of participating in care that runs counter to their personal convictions, including providing birth-control pills, IUDs and the Plan B emergency contraceptive…
The regulation would require any entity receiving HHS funding to certify that it does not discriminate against organizations or individuals who do not want to provide services they consider objectionable.
The most controversial section defines abortion as "any of the various procedures — including the prescription, dispensing and administration of any drug or the performance of any procedure or any other action — that results in the termination of life of a human being in utero between conception and natural birth, whether before or after implantation."
In other words YOU the customer get the short end of the stick because some repressed idiot objects to you even preventing conception.
But, hey, at least we know how John McCain would answer questions on this topic.
And remember, McCain doesn’t represent his campaign on this issue.
