John McCain—the silence is deafening

John McCain "doesn't know" where he stands when it comes to insurance providers covering birth control.
Wow, John McCain. Just wow. How can you "not know enough about it to give you an informed answer." ???? For Pete's sake, you must have had an opinion before when you VOTED AGAINST IT IN 2003! I wonder if he forgot about all his other anti-women's health votes too?
What really burns me up is that John McCain is town again today, and tomorrow he will be addressing economic challenges for women in business at a women's only -event in Hudson, WI. It's part of his effort to win over women, and many former Hillary supporters. Honestly though, his stance on birth control coverage is nothing but a big slap in the face to women everywhere. Coverage for Viagra, but not birth control? Give me a break....

Apparently Walnuts needs his meds and is too cheap to trouble Cindy about it. Oh, Walnuts.
I have mixed feelings about funding for birth control (though I support it)...but a big WTF concerning Viagra.
