As Rachel put it last night, we are talking about the right to birth control for women. These numb nuts are labeling all birth control as abortifacients. (Incorrectly, of course -- apparently biology isn't their strong suit.)

The next thing they'll do is screech about Sharia law while simultaneously promoting a Christian nation.

Oh boy!
