Colorado Rep. Cory Gardner is running for the U.S. Senate against incumbent Democrat Mark Udall. Gardner supports the Supreme Courty’s recent Hobby Lobby ruling but argues that he doesn’t want to deny women access to contraception. In fact, he wants pharmacies and supermarkets to sell it over the counter!
The Stupid is strong with this man. His understanding of female physiology is nonexistent and his idea of medical ethics is sub-mental. Maybe some women would like to explain why it’s a bad idea to sell powerful hormonal drugs without any medical supervision. Or how they would feel about being fitted for an IUD in the check-out line at Walgreens.
Then there is the issue of cost as a barrier to access.
It’s astonishing the degree to which Republican rhetoric is dependent on the mind-bloggling gullibility of the electorate.
