The Morning After pill leads to Sex Cults! per one FDA

[leftyladyfrommo]

Inspector. I just saw that story over on Raw Story. Imeciles! Our country is being run by imbeciles!

I bet that is news to just about everyone who isn't that FDA Drug Inspector.

[ThomCat]

1. The way Bush appoints people

you must have some obvious level of lunacy to get a job like that. There's no other possible explanation.

[leftyladyfrommo]

5. I think all of good people quit year's ago.

That agency has just been a shambles - no leadership at all and extremely low morale.

Scary part is that those same idiots are in charge of keeping us safe from our own greed-driven drug companies.

[eleny]

2. Then, so should condoms - right?

nt

[Beaverhausen]

4. and Viagra!

Let's see them ban that!

[leftyladyfrommo]

6. Viagra is for men - it doesn't count.

Somehow the women are always the one's to get blamed.

[Atman]

14. Well, if'n wimmen wasn't all perty and curvy-licious and all...

they wouldn't be gettin' all hitted up on, and causin' so much trouble.

Hell, dealin' with a goat would be so dang easier. And she'd keep the lawn mowed! But them wimmen, they smell lots nicer.

[ThomCat]

17. LOL!

:P

[leftyladyfrommo]

God yes. Your description fits me to a T

I cause men to just go wild with desire.

[woo me with science]

8. Shouldn't we just surgically remove all the naughty bits?

That way the populace won't be tempted into sin, and our leaders can reproduce for us.

[woo me with science]

3. and multiple personalities. nt

[ComerPerro]

7. Wait, what now?

[Atman]

9. Sex cults? COOL! Where do I sign up?

Sure beats sitting around on a Sunday afternoon PRAYING!

[leftyladyfrommo]

11. I know. What the hell is a sex cult?

[Atman]

16. Apparently, the only thing stopping people from constant orgies is RU486

It has nothing to do with morals or anything.

GOD, these fundie Bushista nutbags are absolute MORANS!

[leftyladyfrommo]

23. You be right on that one.

Limbo. How dumb can we go? Obviously pretty low.

[Horse with no Name]

32. As a woman, I confess

Since I had my tubes tied and have absolutely no risk of pregnancy, I can hardly contain myself. When I walk down the street, I want to stop and fuck someone on EVERY car and flat surface that I see.
I just can't keep my hands to myself.

Seriously though, if RU486 was the only thing stopping sex cults, why wouldn't every woman that wanted to participate in such a lifestyle just have her tubes tied?

I sure wish there was a way to transplant neurons into stupid brains.

[leftyladyfrommo]

34. Lobotomy! The old tried and true method.

I think all of the people in this adm. have had one. Like, instead of plastic surgery.

[BlueCaliDem]

52. I thought RU486 was the "abortion pill", not the emergency contraceptive.

The "Morning After Pill" has to be taken within 72 hours after intercourse, and it can get a gal pretty damned sick for days! Good thing I was given medicinal suppositories to curb the nausea that the emergency contraceptive caused or I wouldn't have finished the program for sure!

[Atman]

57. Actually, you're correct

And you know what? From what I understand (I'm uterously challenged), you don't even need the "morning after" pill program. I have it on good medical authority that even if this pill wasn't available, simply doubling up on bc's for a couple days will have the same outcome, making the uterus simply inhospitable for gestation. Or so I'm told.

[BlueCaliDem]

58. What are "bc's"? N/T

[mongo]

19. We can only tell you if you join

But it is a lot of fun....

:sarcasm:

[reichstag911]

10. WHERE? WHERE, GODDAMNIT, WHERE? n/t

[leftyladyfrommo]

12. I'll find the line. I'm at the library so I'm kind of limited here.

This is so dumb it will go down in the annals of dumbness.

[leftyladyfrommo]

20. I don't know where the sex cults are but here is the link:

www.newsday.com/business/ny-bzfda0423,0,5604733.story?coll=ny-top_headlines

Also will cause extreme promiscous behavior. This just gets better and better.

[reichstag911]

26. FORGET THE LINK!

WHERE ARE THE SEX CLUBS????

;)

[leftyladyfrommo]

28. I'm so sorry. I just don't know.

Now if you wanted a joint I might be able to help.

[reichstag911]

31. D'oh!

Remember, Big Brother is always listening! :hide:

[leftyladyfrommo]

33. I'm just too damn old to worry about big brother.

And I really don't have any good contacts for anything illegal - I wish I did sometimes.

The news from this adm. is enough to make all of us start smoking funny stuff and going out to find wild sex cults.

[DemGirl7]

49. Justice Scalia's house???

:rofl:

[Monk06]

40. Incoherent, run on sentence built around a red herring argument....

Sure sign that Janet Woodstock is a Fundy plant in the FDA.

Dr. Curtis Rosebraugh, an agency medical officer, wrote: "As an example, she stated that we could not anticipate, or prevent extreme promiscuous behaviors such as the medication taking on an 'urban legend' status that would lead adolescents to form sex-based cults centered around the use of Plan B."

Witches and warlocks will be next.

Plus the ultimate Right Wing canard;

"Since we CANNOT anticipate extreme promiscuity from NOT happening it will NECESSARILY happen. QED"

This is an Argument From Credulity; a form of fallacious argument Aristotle criticized over 2000
years ago.

[Warren DeMontague]

13. Sir, could you be more specific?

Like... how do we find these 'sex cults'?

[Beelzebud]

15. Probably the same moron that approved Vioxx.

[Warren DeMontague]

18. "Sex Cults"? Like The Catholic Church?

Oh, wait. The FDA official is talking about consenting adult sex.

[Atman]

22. Hehehehe...

[leftyladyfrommo]

24. No - not consenting adults. The true and most awful danger

here is to clueless teenagers. Who, if left to their own rampant sexual desires, would all engage in the most wanton and promiscous sexual behavior.

[Warren DeMontague]

27. Ah. Well, we can't have that.

If kids start having sex in their teens, who knows what will happen! I mean, of course, I did.. but--- this is different!

After all, until the birth control pill came along, no one had sex before they were married. Right?

:sarcasm:

[uppityperson]

21. I wonder if menopause does also?

[leftyladyfrommo]

25. I'm here to tell you that it most certainly does not. n/t

[uppityperson]

37. I'm in agreement, but you never know what they might claim.

[SouthPasadenaDem]

29. Oh, and get this ...

Her name is Janet Woodcock.

Just saying.

[leftyladyfrommo]

30. Well, no wonder she has aproblem with all of this -

probably really deep seated emotion devastation from years and years of ridicule. Poor thing.

I know about that. My name gets laughed at a lot.

[Atman]

45. She probably gets neither.

Fuckin' stiff!

[lectrobyte]

35. Sex cults? I guess sex with some people could be like a sacrament.

Where do I join?

[leftyladyfrommo]

36. Not with any of the Republicans I know.

But if you were a whore you could makes brazillions.

[meow2u3]

38. The same @$$holes who claim...

...there's no medicinal value in weed! Go figure.

[Freedom_Aflaim]

39. Please give me the the location where this cult meets

I would, um, like to verify the accuracy of this story.

[DrBloodmoney]

41. Further evidence of the politicizing of the FDA

As a medical professional, that is the most frightening aspect of all of this. Deciding which 'FDA-approved' medications may or may not kill my patients, was not bad enough; now I have to process all information coming from the FDA through my new and improved bullshit-detector.

No medicinal value in marijuana my ass. These fuckers are completely out-of-touch with the current mood in medicine - no patient should die in pain, ever.

[leftyladyfrommo]

55. Really, that is the really scary part of this.

None of us have any faith in the safety of the medicines we all take. The medicines might me a lot more dangerous than what ails you.

I'm with you on pot and medicinal value. I firmly believe that if the FDA says it has no value then it probably will enable all of us to live to be 200.

Now if we could just get the FDA to rule on booze - which is the really dangerous drug that is killing people right and left. But we can't do that because all of Republicans drink too excess.

[tabasco]

42. This guy better not get in the way of Scalia and an orgy.

Scalia will call his bro Dickie Cheney and have the guy fired if he says something bad about orgying.

[spanone]

43. No, every aspect of our lives has been politicized by Bushthugs.

They have tainted science with religion and released some weird shit on this country. Even if this CRAZY-ASS story were true, it would be none of the governments business.

[shadowknows69]

44. You say sex cult

as if it's a bad thing ;-)

[LynneSin]

46. Damn, I'm getting me some Morning AFter Pills

:crazy:

[DemGirl7]

47. One of the many reasons why fundies make me laugh...

These people are too funny :rofl: I love how fundies say this type of crap, along with the whole anti-gay marriage stuff, but yet at the same time they are the ones who are sodomize their wives without their consent, like that one asshat at the FDA, Hager. Or they get caught with their pants down on many, many, many, many occassions. Party of so-called "moral values", my ass!

[leftyladyfrommo]

56. Or like the Home Security guy who downloaded all that

child prono.

I mean that is really awful stuff.

That tells you a whole lot about what these guys are really like down underneath their expensive suits and shoes.

[noonwitch]

48. Like the HPV vaccine will lead to sexual immorality?

As if people could get any more promiscuous than they are now, and always have been.

[BlueCaliDem]

50. What a dumbass FDA Inspector! I've used the Morning After Pill at least...

twice in my lifetime (when I was young, and in Holland where it's been around for over 30 years!), and I'm still no member of any "sex cult"!

As a matter of fact, ALL my friends had used the emerg. contraceptive multiple times---but only with the same partner! (Okaym, they should've gone over to a daily contraceptive, but sometimes they forget, and then rush to the doctor the following morning for that "emergency" pill), and NONE have become members of any "sex cult".

What is it with rightwingers that they're so damned ashamed, and uptight about sex???

[Horse with no Name]

51. Because they don't know what "normal" sex is

You know, the kind between two CONSENTING adults?
They factor in their twisted views of molesting animals, children, rape etc. and call it "sex". Thus "sex" is bad.
Sick twisted bastards.

[BlueCaliDem]

53. Probably because RW'ers always see things from a "male's" POV...

...and whatever gives one of their "males" wood, is considered sex.

I mean, my younger sis (see avatar) is a Mormon, and she told me, that according to the Mormons believe that the "original sin" spoken of Genesis between Adam and Eve, was Eve introducing "sex" to Adam!

I mean...sex is a sin??? And it's all the woman's fault??

Being a woman, I'm hap-hap-HAPPY I'm NO RW'er! Now I'm beginning to feel sorry for the female RW'ers...

[geniph]

54. I think I am officially speechless

A "sex cult centered around Plan B"? I mean,
:wtf:
Um, I'm like picturing a group of teenage girls. Young Britney has acquired Plan B from a lib-rul pharmacy. They all meet secretly in Tiffani's parents' basement, light candles, put on creepy electronica music, and share the Plan B. Then they whip out the cucumbers and fuzzy handcuffs.

:wtf:???????????????????????????

Jesus, the Onion has serious competition these days. As Jon Stewart put it, "Political satire is officially dead."
