What would the manufacturers think? Bad outcome = huge lawsuit. So, therefore, we won’t be making this product.

This is to ensure that nobody’s kid gets “punished with a baby”.

So let’s see. I can go in and concoct a plan to buy some moneymakers at Walgreens and use my Register Rewards to kill a baby with a pill.

Thanks Obama - Want some fries with your Satan Sandwich?

These products (SHARES OWNED BY WHO? IN CONGRESS)
will fill the shelves previously occupied
by vitamins (soon to be illegal,
except for Moslems and Congress).

Meanwhile, the FDA is harassing farmers and food makers to make sure the apple juice you drink has lower arsenic than regular city tap-water.

Priorities a little screwed up at FDA maybe???

My 17 year old son has a driver’s license. He cannot even buy dry gas in the auto-parts store because ‘he might abuse it’

This should please Speaker Gangrene or whatever his name is. Sure hope we get a principled candidate for president in the end.

There is going to come a time when voting every four years isn’t going to be adequate to deal with this stuff.

There was talk at one time about making OTC cold medicines by prescription only. I don’t understand why this pill doesn’t need a prescription but birth control pills do.

Yeah. It really make sense that a 13 year old girl couldn’t go to Wal Mart and buy certain OTC cold medicine, but she could walk right in and buy a pill to abort her baby.

What kind world are we living in?!?!?

So the FDA wants to ban most nutritional supplements put out since 1992 but has no problem with a pill sold OTC to kill an unborn baby.

UNFARKINGBELIEVABLE.

The FDA are postal workers in smocks. Schmucks in smocks taking their orders from the White Hut. Is there an alaphabet group in D.C. worth keeping? /s

“Instead, Plan B would be available on store shelves, along with condoms, contraceptive sponges and spermicides.”
