Birth Control Hearings (Redux)

Y'know, we were all pretty hard on Issa and the House GOP for having one-sided, inherently misogynistic hearings on birth control. We, as a progressive community, kvetched that having a panel of men testify on a women's health issue was a mistake born of political gamesmanship and intolerance.

Boy, is the egg on our face. Recently found footage, seen here, suggests that there WAS an attempt at balance in these hearings--a chance for turnabout, fair play, and justice.

So, our apologies to Issa, Walsh, and all the other gentlemen of the House GOP. You guys clearly know how to treat women. Maybe that will help with this little problem.

Thanks fellahs!

I'll just say it: It's not very funny.

Something like "Sh*t Ministers say about Women" where they dress up like ministers could be pretty funny...certainly lots of material to be mined.

somebody had to say it. They were no less funny than the all male panel...


The person who defines Reality wins.

Would have been more of a parallel if the panel had older to very old women - I'm seeing a panel of cool nanas.

I'm surprised it didn't elicit more comments.
