Ahhhh.....not true my left coast friend:)

Bush never supported the morning after pill, but rather stated clearly his intention to not allow it's sanctioning.

Approval of RU-486 is wrong

The FDA approved yesterday the abortion pill RU-486, but leaders on both sides of the abortion issue say debate over the pill will continue. The FDA approved the drug under a regulation that gives the agency more leeway to impose tighter restrictions or even take it off the market.“The FDA’s decision to approve the abortion pill RU-486 is wrong,” Bush said in a statement. “As president, I will work to build a culture that respects life.”

Bush at fault.

I've changed my stance on the abortion issue.  I firmly believe it should be legal, promoted and encouraged.  There'd be far fewer idiots in the world.

....lets ban vaccines too, the weak are surviving too much.

Forgive me for butting in here, but you guys seems to be confusing the morning after pill with the abortion pill.  

The morning after pill is taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex and prevents pregnancy by changing the chemical content of the lining of the uterus so the egg cannot attach itself.  Actually the morning after pill is a high dose of birth control pills.

RU-486 as Eagler just pointed out actually takes an already fertilized egg that's attached to the lining of the uterus and chemically changes the lining to make the egg and lining shed itself causing an abortion.  From what I remember doctor's only prescribe it in the first trimester of pregnancy, but I could be wrong.  The problem with prescribing it over the counter is that there has always been a followup appointment after taking the pills to make sure that the pregnancy has been sucessfully aborted.  I can see making sure the morning after pill is available otc, but not RU-486.

Sorry, I was in college not too long ago and because of stupid behavior on my part I did a lot of research on these topics.

You know, now that I think about it, since birth control pills aren't otc because of complications and side affects, I don't think either of these should be as well.  I think the first logical step in pregnancy/antipregnancy drugs would be to make a better birthcontrol pill with less side affects that could be approved for over the counter use....but I'm forgetting that men run the drug companies; a better birthcontrol pill is about as likely as a male birthcontrol pill.  I'll save that rant for another day.

We can't be bothered with actually understanding the function of wombs we want to control and the myriad of drugs to do so.

So looks like MG has a new handle, and after being banned on AGW, he has decided to try his luck here again.

I still don't get why some men feel they have a right to even comment on a woman's choice of birth control, sound so middle-eastern to me.

We should ban viagara while we're at it. If you can't get it up, better off then to not have weak-limped male offspring polluting the gene pool.

They were just irresponsible in their youth, all the junk food, budweiser, and marlboro lights from their frat-boy parties porked their circulation...now live with it

Or just let the people consuming it decide for themselves whether the risks are worth the benefits in their individual situation.  

Why should an adult woman care if it hasn't been proven safe in minors?  Research shows it's safe for her, so she should have the option of taking it.

Because if its over the counter whats to stop a very young girl from buying and using it?
 Best to let the DR's work this one out.

Uh maybe because it takes a man and a woman to make babies.

Both partys should take a responsable role if there going to do the wild thang.

Like I told my nephew If ya wanna play be ready to PAY!

Rant on you have a very valid point there!
Why should all the resposability be on the woman for birth control?

Grow up be men take responsability for your actions and for gods sake if she does get pregnant be there for her.

I have seen too many dudes run like hell when there girlfriends get pregnant.

And to me that just makes them punks.
