House rejects spending for birth control

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - An attempt to resume state spending on birth control got shot down Wednesday by House members who argued it would have amounted to an endorsement of promiscuous lifestyles.

The House voted 96-59 to delete the funding for contraception and infertility treatments after Rep. Susan Phillips told lawmakers that anti-abortion groups such as Missouri Right to Life were opposed to the spending.
"If you hand out contraception to single women, we're saying promiscuity is OK as a state, and I am not in support of that," Phillips, R-Kansas City, said in an interview.
I dunno, Rep. Phillips. That's the sort of thing that could really boost tourism.
The latest salvo in the Holy Terrors' War On Whoopie. No sex toys, no porn, no sex ed (except for abstinence only), no Roe v. Wade, no contraceptives.
As I've stated previously, banning contraceptives is just the natural next step once abortion is re-outlawed. Repeal Roe v. Wade and you can likewise repeal Griswold v. Connecticut. And the right to privacy ceases to exist.
