A Look at the Costs of Politicians' Opposition to Reproductive Rights
Huffington Post: The Real Costs of Politicians' Obsession With Reproductive Rights, by Toni Panetta:
From Rick Santorum's claim to "take the bullets" as proof of his pro-life credentials to Michele Bachmann's, Newt Gingrich's, Ron Paul's, Tim Pawlenty's and Santorum's signing Marilyn Musgrave's Susan B. Anthony List pledge to systemically strip away a woman's ability to access safe, legal abortion if elected president, the GOP's anti-abortion, anti-birth control contingent is all too willing to sell out America's women and their families in their quest to out-pro-life each other. . . .
