POLITICS as usual

Democrats block nomination of man who opposes selling the morning after pill over the counter...they are claiming he is doing it for political reasons.

Actually, from my experience, I've seen too many cases where it made women too nauseous to take it...and had moms complain their teenaged daughters didn't take the pill for days after it was prescribed.

Finally, by telling women they have a "second option", it encourages unsafe sex...or the idea that they don't have to worry...but of course in REAL life, these same women are the same self destructive types who 1) won't use a condom to protect themselves from STD 2) are too disorganized to go the drug store for several days 3) won't take the second third or fourth doses because of side effects 4) will claim they "had to" abort their pregnancy because the morning after pill caused fetal malformations and 5) will then become depressed and become druggies, if they already aren't druggies.

In non self destructive women, it is possible that it will prevent some pregnancies: But the statistics are NOT 100 percent, if I remember correctly only 50 percent lower, so the end result will be more abortions...since the rate of "unprotected" sex will increase...

and the side effects of nausea are common...but what about increase coagulability (phlebitis and pulmonary emboli), increased vaginal bleeding, harming a pregnancy that was conceived weeks before the pill was taken, etc. etc...
