Birth Control vs. Viagra

Insurance covers the latter but not the former; what's your opinion? Apparently, John McCain has none. Me, I'm in favor of both; of course I'm not pregnant nor do I have erection problems but I'm just trying to consider the greater good:
That was an 8 second pause after the second time she asked the question if you're scoring at home. Now chalk this up to him being very old or just not giving a damn about young women but either way, does this spouse of a nine figure heiress seem like he's connecting with you, the everyday voter? How long would you take to answer this question?

I guess I'd want to know what other preventative medications are covered while birth control isn't. To be honest, though, I thought it WAS covered since we don't pay much at all for it. If this clip told me anything, it reaffirmed that our medical system is all screwed up if birth control can be so cheap but painkillers can cost a fortune. Seems to me that if birth control were covered by insurance, it might turn out just like repealing the federal gas tax... just another reason to raise prices and profits.

As for McCain personally, I think both of your assessments are off. He probably just didn't want to commit to an answer one way or the other without checking his voting record, thinking about his own opinion (it's not something i'd ever considered) and finding out what the party line is. I wish we didn't live in a system where party lines mattered, but hey, they do... and it sucks.
