Your own side handed the issue to the Democrats on a silver platter. This is entirely on the head of the tone-deaf commentators on the right. Bed made, go lie in it.

"My side" did nothing and even called this birth control debate "silly" and refused to get caught up on one side or the other.

Ron Paul: This birth control debate is just “silly” « Hot Air

Here we go. One conservative posts a lie and the rest are spreading it around as if it were manure. Really, putting a stop to conservative lies is like trying to kill cockroaches.

Just where did the the GOP "screw up" on women's stuff? I realize this is the meme the Democrats are trying to create, but when did the GOP start denying women the right to walk into CVS or Walgreens and buy condoms? When did they start denying women the right to go on the pill?

You guys keep pushing this krap, but its all false, and you know it.

And you also know Obama manufactured this whole mess out of thin air with his unconstitutional assault on the Catholic church.

So this is what your president is going to run on...lies about the GOP and women. That's some president. That's some platform.

The NYTimes now makes stories up ? Really ?

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/09/us...-law.html?_r=2
On Wednesday, White House officials summoned dozens of leaders of nonprofit organizations that strongly back the health law to help them coordinate plans for a prayer vigil, press conferences and other events outside the court when justices hear arguments for three days beginning March 26.

Obama got handed this women's issue on a silver platter. Why wouldn't he use it to his advantage. He's not stupid.
Do you consider this silver platter to be the Catholic bishops refusing to allow him to force them to help people commit sins, according to their teachings or do you think it came from the Sandra Fluke dust up that Nancy Pelosi dreamed up and used to such advantage. Plate or plates?

Look at the Blunt amendment (failed, thankfully). Even a few Rs now "regret" having voted for it.

Lisa Murkowski Regrets Voting With Republicans On Blunt Amendment

Look at the "transvaginal ultrasound" bill in the VA legislature. The gov. was all ready to sign it until he saw the firestorm about it.

"Personhood" bills in the several states. Bills to prevent people from suing doctors for lying to them about birth defects that might have caused the patient to abort. ETC, ETC, ETC!

You are saying that you are one of those one issue voters even when the issue is fake, aren't you?

It is hard to spread that Pelosi thin enough to see through it, but I keep trying.
