The Unfinished Fight Over Contraception
By LOUISE G. TRUBEK
Published: March 1, 2012
CAN we still be arguing about a woman’s ability to control her own fertility? Almost 50 years ago in Griswold v. Connecticut, the Supreme Court struck down state restrictions on contraception because they violated a right to privacy. But the issue has not gone away. Rick Santorum injected it into the presidential race by indicating that Griswold should be overturned so that states could ban contraception altogether. And the Senate just voted down a Republican effort to allow employers and health insurance companies to refuse coverage for contraceptives if they had moral or religious objections.
i cannot believe that we are talking about this; that a presidential candidate actually thinks contraception should be outlawed. where did this come from?? why are we moving backwards? this is outrageous and unbelievable.
it seems imo that the less popular republicans become, the further the few that are left move to the right. which in turn leads to even less popularity! rick santorum is a loony. a LOONY.
