So please offer some advice on this one. Should I choose to go with the one that wants to take my birth control away, which will have serious complications to my reproductive health? Or should I vote for the one that gets their kicks listening to my rather uninteresting phone calls and internet usage?
Birth Control?....There is a very easy fix for that.
Your Liberty?...It's a hell of a lot more than phone and internet usage.
If it were me...I would put my civil rights before my reproductive health.
But, that's just my opinion.

Really and what fix is there for that good sir?
Oh that is right just like the other morons that are blasting me, you assumed it was for sex.
Sorry no it is not.
So what you are telling us you would be ok having your testicles removed when they need not be? I don't like the idea of the Government spying on people anymore than you do. But I do have other concerns to think about and one of the two parties has decided to put my personal health at risk to make the religious whack jobs happy.

Where did I say I wanted you to pay for it? The fact of it is to vote for anyone that is on board with the Republican anti-abortion agenda, will be in many cases by default be passing legislation that outright bans hormonal birth control altogether. So the prescription I have to use now will in fact be illegal under these laws. It is not as simple as oh this one voted this way on this issue, so I just have to vote the other way. Maybe if we had other choices that were not hellbent on turning back the clock on these types of issues it could be that way, but the fact is it isn't. And isn't looking to be that way for the foreseeable future. So yes the religious whackjobs are once again holding the country hostage because they are more concerned with imposing their vision of morality on everyone else. When smaller Government starts meaning you will not be putting a microscope on my vagina, then I will be able to consider whatever it is you have to say about other issues. Until then I have to vote for the person that is the least dangerous to my health first. As long as I am alive and healthy, I may get to see the day a better alternative comes around, until then it's just a matter of staying that way.
