New Stanek column on WND: “Babes in Thailand rapists needn’t leave U.S.”
So what if minor girls can’t buy emergency contraceptives without a prescription?
Their rapists can.
When last week the FDA authorized over-the-counter access of ECs to women 18 and older, it also authorized over-the-counter access to men 18 and older.
Why would men buy ECs?
Ask them in Thailand, where ECs have been marketed for 20 years. In Thailand, ECs are advertised in men’s magazines….
I don’t know whether acting FDA Commissioner Andrew von Eschenbach was caving to or cavorting with radical feminists when making his decision, but it was irresponsible and dangerous.
Have you ever heard of the FDA making the high dose of any drug available on the store shelf while locking the lower dose in the pharmacy?
Here’s the magnitude of difference between prescription-only birth control pills and now nonprescription ECs: Planned Parenthood recommends taking 40 Ovrette brand birth control pills at one time to equal the dosage of the EC….

Thanks for your story about what Planned Parenthood and the drug companies are doing – selling these ECs at outrageous prices and mostly
to men.
You mentioned that Thailand is exposed because of John Karr, but I believe the Tsunami that hit there showed the world how sick we can be.
There is a lot of work to be done everywhere in the fight to protect our children to be sure.
Just read your article on Thailand and the danger of contraceptive pills.
You mention that President Bush gave in on Plan B because he might be tired of fighting. Unfortunately I think that’s correct. I think the president is basically a good person but has just been overwhelmed by the “chattering classes.”
Some presidents are comfortable in the job, such as President Reagan and President Kennedy. But I’ve noticed President Bush never seems quite at ease in the job. At his infrequent press conferences he starts out fairly strong but begins to look strained and starts to stumble part way through the questioning. Unfortunately he doesn’t have the rhetorical skills or historical/current events knowledge of many people in public life so his responses to questions seem to be formulistic.
Anyway, he does respond to media pressure, as his cave in on Plan B demonstrates. The best strategy to influence President Bush would be to get a counter campaign going on alternative media outlets such as FOX News, talk radio, internet news organizations such as Front Page Magazine, etc.
I don’t recall reading anything specific about your faith but yours truly is a Christian who while often literal in his adherence, my slightly liberal side makes me less than sure of my inclination to believe God has revealed things directly to me.
Yet when you mentioned the Thai – land of sex, drugs, and more sex and drugs, my beliefs are sharpened. I hate to call that horrendous Tsunami a warning or punishment from God but it is more than coincidental that the Tsunami hit exactly where all that filthy sex, drug, child rape game is going on. One could draw a map and lay it over the destroyed area and find a perfect match of where the filth peddlers are getting filthy rich and where the devastation was.
Now we see they are (in that region) rebuilding bigger and better (ouch that word fails to work) than ever.
The John Karr story was merely a more recent footnote in an area of the world rivaling San Francisco, Rio de Janeiro, Key West and Disney World for Homo, pedophile, transgender, pervert meccas.
I understand the whores of that region are given the so-called morning after pill weekly or until
the poor young girls start bleeding to death. Then they back off as that, too, costs their owners money.
It breaks my heart to write this sad saga. So I close with the following: Our cultural war is being lost as far as our feeble efforts go, but I suspect God will (as He always has) exact His price and make changes.
Most of all I feel President Bush has again allowed public opinion to be influenced by pillow talk.
Excellent column.
You mean this hasn’t been about “women’s health” after all? You mean Planned Parenthood is aiding and abetting rapists? Again?
I am shocked … shocked.
OK, not really.
Thanks for following the money and sharing your insights.
So very disappointed with the President here. He discovered his veto power at a good time but then had another Harriet Myers moment. Alas.
Thanks for the info.
If the FDA makes stupid and dangerous decisions like this, how safe are any of us?
Plan B – Make up something really silly, because you can
“M in the Gap”, apparently is “Standing in the Gap in a that’s Society Warring with God”.
Well, first, nobody is warring with God. God doesn’t exist, at least no one can give any good reasons as why he exists. Warrin…
