So, in this CNN article, reprinted from the AP, the three women are backed by "pro-abortion" groups? Nice work, genius -- way to conflate EC with abortion. Of course, the author conveniently refers to how using EC is considered an abortion by pro-life groups because it prevents "the fertilized egg" from implanting in the uterus. No notice of how, for example, a woman who takes EC may not have ovulated (potentially because of EC) and her egg may not have been fertilized (also, potentially because of EC) -- nah, that would resemble the reality of EC too much! Better to simply portray every example of EC as being anti-implantation-oriented to a definitely fertilized egg and the groups that support women getting equal access to as being "pro-abortion." Bias, much? Ugh!
I do think Walmart should be required to do so. Perhaps other states should pass laws like the one in Illinois that requires such products to be carried. Otherwise, this ain't gonna happen in every state. Then let the anti-women's-rights groups protest against states' rights, a cause they've generally held dear (when it suited their purposes).
Its now several days later, and the poll seems about tied, with yes they should be required to stock at 73K, and no they shouldn't at 71K. I wonder what a more scientific poll would tell you, since this is probably just votes from those who feel REALLY strongly on the issue from both sides, weighing in.
