RSSObama Administration Reverses Decision, Obama Allows Morning-after Plan B Contraception pills To Be Purchased by Girls of any Age
ARE YOU KIDDING ME …
Obama administration reverses position and now allows individuals of any age, yes no age limitation, to purchase Morning-after Plan B contraception pills with no prescription. Obama’s Justice Department has decided to drop their appeal . WTF!!! So let’s get this correct, I have to supply ID and a driver’s license when purchasing Sudafed and children need a parents note to take aspirin and Tylenol in school, but some how individuals of any age with no prescription can now buy the Morning after Plan B contraception pill. Seriously, what happened to the country I grew up in? What a sick, sick world we live in where it is easier to get birth control for a 10 year old girl without any doctor’s prescription or parental consent, but we arrest and suspend 10 year old boys who bring a plastic toy gun to school. All in the name of radical feminists for women’s “health and equity.” No, you just made it easier for little girls to be abused and forced into sexual situations. Who finds it comical that you can get birth control with no age limit, but need to be 21 to legally drink alcohol?
How typical of Obama, on one hand he claims he is against it, and then on the other he has his Justice Department stop the appeal that would prevent 10 year old girls from having free access to birth control. What a joke, I guess Obama will say he just learned about this too, when the media reported it Monday.
The Obama administration will stop trying to limit sales of emergency contraception pills, making the morning-after pill available to women of all ages without a prescription.
The US justice department said in a letter on Monday that it planned to comply with a court’s ruling to allow unrestricted sales of Plan B One-Step and that it would withdraw its appeal on the matter.
The move is the latest in a lengthy legal fight over the morning-after pill, which was until recently only available without a prescription to women 17 and older who presented proof of age at a pharmacist’s counter.
Plaintiffs in a federal lawsuit against the FDA said the limit unfairly kept women and girls from accessing the drug, which is most effective when taken within 72 hours of intercourse.
From The Hill: Obama administration will approve ‘Plan B’ pill for women and girls of all ages.
Obama had previously said he was uncomfortable with removing all age restrictions on the sale of the so-called “morning after pill.” He said over a year ago that “as the father of two daughters,” he supported his Health secretary’s decision to block over-the-counter sales for younger teens. But a federal judge excoriated the administration’s defense of age limits on the pill, calling it a nakedly political decision divorced from science.
The administration’s sudden reversal came after the Food and Drug Administration had sought to block the judge’s order requiring it to make Plan B available without a prescription to women and girls of all ages.

Has anyone observed that Obama is completely
preoccupied with everything he is not specifically
permitted by the Constitution of the United States?
What is he doing up to his neck in teen birth control,
gay and lesbian affairs, healthcare, gun limitation,
energy preferences, teachers and other unions, and
all the rest of non-presidential decisions?
This is more incursion on the rights of parents to know their children’s activities. A seventeen year old maybe should have an unrestricted right to purchase, but it should only be available to those of lesser age with a parent making the purchase.
Somehow, the people must stop the courts from making such rulings. This is “big Brother” at the highest level.
While I realize that IDs for Sudafeds and plastic toy guns aren’t the sole issue of your argument, don’t confuse state and local laws with federal laws.
Like any parasitical cancer cell, Obama, IMO, is simply
the original disease that has metastasized into a
compliant festering mass known as ‘Progressives’.
This has been accomplished by appointing, hiring,
executive ordering, and incentivizing all kindred
souls of the would-be ruling class phylum.
The Democrat Party has been ‘body snatched’ by
these anti-Constitutional influences and will sacrifice
America and it’s way of being for power and control.

Maybe Obama “evolved”. Something akin to his position on gay marriage.

OBAMA: I’m a strong supporter of civil unions. And I think that, you know, we’re involved in a national conversation about this issue. You know, I BELIEVE THAT MARRIAGE IS BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN.

Obama says same-sex marriage should be legal
May 9, 2012
“I have hesitated on gay marriage in part because I thought that civil unions would be sufficient”, Now, he said, “it is important for me personally to go ahead and affirm that same-sex couples should be able to get married.”

Thanks SM.
Every word of the commentary mirrors my perspective on the issue.

Where does parental consent enter into the equation. After all children do belong to their parents or … do they?
Now it’s a social worker for every child – in Scotland
25 May 2013
For anyone familiar with how our “child protection” system too often works in practice, rather loud alarm bells might be rung by a Bill currently going through the Scottish Parliament that takes the state’s intervention in family life to a startling new level. Under the Children and Young People (Scotland) Bill, every child from birth will be given a “named person”, charged with keeping an eye on that child’s interests until it reaches adulthood.

When did the “powers that be” acquire the authority to override the recommendations of the Food and Drug Administration in regards to the Plan B contraceptive and minors? What are the long term health implication?
Obama forgets he has two girls growing up, and even though they are hounded by security right now……girls can be very sneaky. Growing up with a man that every time he opens his mouth it is nothing but a lie… karma will come right back and bite him right in the butt.
i wonder if his daughters are already using ?
