Unfortunately, in the case of this contraceptive, the "religious right and the Bush Administration" does bear a lot of blame.

Also unfortunately, it's behavior like this which is giving conservatism a bad name, and reinforcing the negative stereotype of conservatives as overly moralistic busybodies who want to control other people's lives and force other people to obey their personal views on sex and reproduction. This kind of stuff doesn't help bring more people to the conservative movement, and it drives a lot of people away.
