Bush Further Taints Legacy by Attacking Birth Control
NARAL Pro-Choice America vows to keep fighting dangerous Bush regulation that could undermine reproductive-health services


Washington, D.C. – Today, Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, expressed extreme disappointment over the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) issue of the final Bush administration rule that could undermine women's access to essential health-care services, including birth control.

"President Bush's campaign promise was to unite Americans and he certainly did, as Americans are united in their opposition to this dangerous last-minute rule," Keenan said. "This last-ditch effort to undermine women's health and privacy is a transparent payoff to the right-wing pressure groups. In the 2008 election, voters clearly rejected the use of government authority to advance divisive policies. We look forward to working with the incoming Obama administration to reverse this divisive rule and change the tone of the debate over reproductive rights by protecting women's access to contraception, which actually helps prevent unintended pregnancies."

1. Evidently Bush really is a fundie

Of a sort, because I have difficulty believing he has faith in anything. Maybe he's being paid off. Maybe he's fucking crazy. Thank GOD he's out the door
