I feel I am nowhere near angry enough. But I have to go bake cookies, now, apparently. Still, Grrrrr. Stabby.

Seconded.

Sad to say, there were two reasons I supported the invasion of Afghanistan and only one was 9/11.

And hello? Women could be killed for being outdoors without a male relative only a few years ago. The implications for women in the region are disgusting. Where's Eve Ensler when we need her!

It's a completely non hormone related medication.

I guess it's at least "something" if it's not adding to hormonal issues. Still, wtf? I somehow doubt the CIA is slipping birth control or family planning education to the women in combination with this plan.

But perhaps, hopefully, more babies also = more conservative military actions over time, as those babies don't replenish the ranks overnight.
It could be even simpler, I suppose: more babies = more perceived prosperity?
Very strange dynamics CIA is messing with, here...

Megan, this probably is obvious to you, but I like it when we all refuse to shut up about women's issues. And Viagra? It's a woman's issue. People forget that. No one really talks about it in terms of its effect on women, it being assumed that we're all just thrilled to have it available for the men who pleasure us so with their hard, hard wangs.

Which, come to think of it, will only make them like the U.S. more...

@Too Hot For TNR: I just like using the word "splooge". Glad it was appreciated. :)
