4. Somebody like Santorum's wife will always have access to abortion

and to birth control, because he's got money. They have absolutely no concerns about outlawing abortion or birth control, because if they need it, they have the means to get it.

They want to outlaw abortion and birth control so that it's harder for poor and middle-class women to have access to health services. In other words, they want to control poor and middle-class women's lives, and sit in judgment on them while they have the means to do whatever they want.

Frankly, Santorum has really stuck his foot in it at this point. There are some women that might go along with the anti-choice agenda, but to outlaw or severely regulate birth control? If he thinks women in the 21st century, many of whom take it for medical reasons rather than contraception, will put up with that, he's out of his fucking mind.

And it's pretty obvious he is out of his fucking mind to anyone but the most bat shit crazy of the bat shit crazies. In fact, I may have just insulted bat shit.
