No Fault Pregnancy

Opinion: Huckabee's 'libido' comment chilling - CNN.com:

First, let's get the actual offending comment out of the way in context (which BTW was actually a bit hard to find even with Google!).:
I think it’s time for Republicans to no longer accept listening to Democrats talk about a ‘War on Women.’  Because the fact is, the Republicans don’t have a war on women.  They have a war for women – for them to be empowered, to be something other than victims of their gender. 
Women I know are outraged that Democrats think that women are nothing more than helpless and hopeless creatures whose only goal in life is to have a government provide for their birth control medication. Women I know are smart, educated, intelligent, capable of doing anything anyone else can do. 
Our party stands for the recognition of the equality of women and the capacity of women.  That’s not a war on them, it’s a war for them. And if the Democrats want to insult the women of America by making them believe that they are helpless without Uncle Sugar coming in and providing for them a prescription each month for birth control, because they cannot control their libido or their reproductive system without the help of government, then so be it. Let’s take that discussion all across America, because women are far more than Democrats have made them to be. And women across America have to stand up and say, “Enough of that nonsense.”
So he doesn't want to accept the Democrats absurd claim of "a war on women". Duh. It is a testament to the shared mendacity of the Democratic party and the MSM as well was the overly Sheeple nature of a lot of Americans that ANYONE would EVER accept that idiotic "war on women" fabrication. (but I can understand why the Democrats and the MSM hate to see anyone do so)

Then he calls women smart, educated, intelligent, and other bad things that would tend to make them not Democrats. Again, easy to see why Democrats and the MSM hate this, but women?

Then he gets into the part he needs to be called names for. He suggests that women can bear responsibility for their reproductive system like men often have to. You know, the woman gets pregnant and the man "through no fault of his own" is liable for child support? It is easy to see why the linked columnist and all sorts of Democrats find this comment "chilling"! I mean, the very idea that ANYONE (other than businessmen and those with money) ought to bear ANY responsibility for ANYTHING is completely "chilling"! The gall!! The idea that actions (other than making money) would have consequences! The horror!

In the ideal responsibility free world, why is it again that a man ought to have to pay child support when a woman doesn't even have to pay for her birth control?? Besides with abortion on demand, even if she fails to cover that, why ought it be the mans responsibility to pay support (unless he is "rich" of course!!). Isn't clear that those poor dweebs foolish enough to get educated, take risks, get higher paying / higher stress jobs, etc ARE RESPONSIBLE! Everyone else deserves a completely responsibility free existence!! Won't that make this a much more wonderful nation?
 Chilling, isn't it?
