Contraception Control and Politics? WHAT?

I know that my calendar says the year 2012 on it.  I know that we are not in the dark ages any

longer.   I also understand that some people still think that women do not have the right to choose

what happens to their bodies.  There will always be some organization, religious group that will

always be against contraception.  I am sorry, but if I work at a company or organization whether it be

religiously affiliated or not, if I pay for my insurance out of my paycheck, then how does that give

the company I work for the right to decide whether or not to give me the coverage needed for my

choice to take a contraceptive?  I understand that this topic will always be a topic of dismay for the

church and other religious organizations, but I am a person and I have the right to decide and choose!



Washington (CNN) -- Congressional Democrats and Republicans escalated their rhetorical war Thursday over a pending federal rule requiring religiously affiliated employers to provide full contraception coverage to women -- one day after hints emerged of a possible compromise between the White House and conservative religious critics
