Palin Opposes Rape Kits Because…

…rape kits also contain…emergency contraception.

Oh noes! For the record, I don’t think Hannity asked Palin about this last night. No-one has.

    And how much will the BBQ media talk about it? How much have they talked about the Palin reason for firing Monegan because – *officially!* – he requested earmarks to pay for rape kits.This is a nasty, awful campaign ad just waiting to happen – and the worst part is, every word could be true.

    Yeah, QT, I read this somewhere else a few weeks back (can’t remember where…) The far-right-wing anti-abortion crowd considers contraception to be abortion – they define pregnancy as beginning when an egg is fertilized, which medical professionals do not. (They define it as when an egg is implanted.) So anything which prevents the implantation of an egg is considered abortion. And HHS has adopted policies which mirror that position.Cristina Page has written about this:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/cristina-page/hhs-moves-to-define-contr_b_112887.htmlandhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/cristina-page/misconception_b_120363.htmlAs this is an issue you feel strongly about, you might find those articles interesting.

    Man… When I first heard about this, I thought, hey, maybe she’s just a horrible bitch? But apparently, she’s really putting her beliefs to work, which is much more terrifying. If you’ll all excuse me, I think I’m going to never stop throwing up.
