You've got to be kidding me
Now the FDA says that the reason it won't certify the "morning after" pill is that it might lead to sex-based cults.
Yeah, and it might lead to man on dog sex, too. You don't want those dogs to give birth to dog-human half-breeds do you?
You just can't make this stuff up.
Update: It occurred to me shortly after posting this that the solution to all these horrible sex problems that the Rethuglicans love to worry about is to neuter everyone before they reach puberty. Voila, problem solved for all time! No more worries, no more cares. No more pre-marital sex. No more unwanted pregnancies. No more abortions. Everyone can now devote the rest of their lives to prayer and contemplation.
Added benefit: It would accelerate the date of the rapture, when the earth (or at least human life on it) comes to an end!
In the memo released by the FDA during the discovery process, Dr. Curtis Rosebraugh, an agency medical officer, wrote: "As an example, she stated that we could not anticipate, or prevent extreme promiscuous behaviors such as the medication taking on an 'urban legend' status that would lead adolescents to form sex-based cults centered around the use of Plan B."

I had to go back and double-check: that language makes no sense! Now, it could be Rosebraugh's summary that is the problem, but not only is this not scientific, it is gibberish.
--"Urban legends" are stories that are not true.
--"Sex-based cult", apart from the Duke lacrosse team [low-blow], what exactly is that?
Back to English language and rational policy-land (no, I am not forgetting this is the Bush Administration-- we have got to try): Is the standard of FDA approval now the inability of "adolescents" to misuse prescription drugs?
Lest we miss it by careless reading, this is the reporter's take on what Rosebraugh said about what Janet Woodcock said -- not Rosebaugh's opinion.
