McCain Playing Games with Birth Control: Sorry!

McCain's view on birth control?

"I certainly do not want to discuss that issue."

Well, we do! The second installment of our "McCain Playing Games with Choice" series focuses on McCain's anti-birth-control record. (No matter how much he might not remember or care to discuss it).

This issue has been especially fun for McCain (OK well maybe just us) this past month - what with his top advisor being clueless about his record, and then McCain stammering when asked about his past vote favoring Viagra over birth control.

Since McCain can't seem to spit out a coherent thought on the subject, allow me to share his anti-birth control record with you. McCain:

  • Has voted against birth control 22 times.
  • Voted to terminate the Title X family planning program, which provides millions of women with birth control.
  • Voted against funding teen-pregnancy prevention programs.
  • Voted against requiring insurance companies that cover drugs like Viagra to also cover birth control.

Well, now that I think about it, he did manage to say one accurate thing about his birth control record:

"I don't know enough about it to give you a informed answer."

Now there's the Straight Talk Express. Sir, next time, please refrain from casting damaging votes on things you "don't know enough about."
