On the other hand, when did "sense" have any relevance to conservatives?

Yesterday Amanda wrote about how the new meme that characterizes the new "child swiftboating" -- that the parents of Brittany Wilkerson should not have had their child because they didn't have health insurance -- is inconsistent with the equally right-wing agenda that all pregnancies should be carried to term and that doctors and pharmacists opposed to contraceptives need not prescribe and fill prescriptions for them.

Fresh on the heels of the right having yet another working family to kick around, one with a child not old enough to talk back yet, comes Captain Codpiece to try to keep the world safe from fucking:

The Department of Health and Human Services appointed Susan Orr — who has spoken out against contraception — to a post responsible for U.S. contraception programs.

Orr, who will be acting deputy assistant secretary for population affairs, has been directing child welfare programs in another branch of HHS. Prior to joining the Bush administration, Orr was senior director for marriage and family at the Family Research Council, a conservative group that favors abstinence-only education and opposes federal money for contraception.

In 2001, she was quoted in the Washington Post favoring a Bush administration plan to drop a requirement that health insurance plans for federal employees cover a broad range of birth control.

“We’re quite pleased because fertility is not a disease,” she said at the time. “It’s not a medical necessity that you have it.”

So let me see if I have this straight....you shouldn't have access to contraception if you work for the government because contraception isn't a medical necessity and you should produce lots of babies. But if you don't work for the government; say, for an employer that doesn't provide insurance, then you should let your baby die.

Or is it that fucking, like health insurance, is only for the wealthy too?
