Liberals have never been known for their extraordinary foresight. It's all about the entitlement. Which is why this country is circling the drain.
What a way to twist things!

You think there are no insurance mandates NOW?

I may not need every mandate there is, but it's shameful for people to pay for insurance then find they're not covered when they need it. This applies to way more than birth control.

This kind of ridiculous, brain-dead generalization coming from the so-called "smarter" conservative women? If this is your idea of intellectual superiority, then you're in trouble. This thread is almost as stupid as the "Conservative women are hotter" thread.

They are.

That's why they don't want more government rules which are unconstitutional.

IMO more shameful that people are paying insurance and don't know their own coverage. There's no lack of information on the various plans and what is covered vs what is not.

What is there to spin? Everytime the US Government mandates something, you lose freedom.

Just beause healthcare is the issue doesn't make it any less true.

That's why forcing seatbelts on people are still an outrage to many people to this day. The USG knows this....that's why "highway funding" was threatened for states who didn't comply.....because the Federal Government beleives it has all the answers for you and your health. It doesn't beleive you have the werewithal to do what's best for you.

Why do you believe that the USG knows what's best for you Katiana? Are people not capbable of doing what's best for them without USG interference, including saving a few dollars for copays and putting a seatbelt on at their own behest?

The point is that the USG doesn't know how to police itself.....and we have people that share your ideology that it should be able to do what it wants because the USG knows best.

America is circling the drain for a reason.......its' not a coincidence.

It is every persons responsibility to READ the policy that you are buying.

Aren't the leftie's supposed to be the ultra intelligent? Why can't you brilliant, highly educated people read what is covered under your policy?

I know it's a lot to take in, but you're smart, right?

Well, am I right?

Lack of responsibility has been at the center of liberalism for 50 years now. (nothing is YOUR fault)

Now feminists are demanding that the Catholic Universities go against their principles and cover contraceptives.

Oh, not more of this "personal responsibility" rap again! Yes, you should read your policy and know what's in it. It's still a shame to pay into insurane, sometimes for years, and then not be covered for something when you need it.

Cut the sarcasm about my intelligence alpha, or I might go after yours!

It's not sarcasm.

Almost every week there's a thread about the "highly educated" left vs the knuckle dragging neanderthal right.

I'm certain that you fit into that category.

Now, take responsibility for YOURSELF (it may be difficult) and read YOUR policy.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of care!

Fair's fair, right?


What do you call a man who has sex and doesn't pay for his own vasectomy, anyway?
Man-w***e?
