This has nothing to do with women"s access to birth control. Contraceptives are plentiful and extremely inexpensive despite what Fluke claimed... The goal here by the media is to assist Obama in

crismerinoStay with us on this, because the story here is one big misunderstanding.
It"s a little hard to make out in the YouTube video, but Norman Nowling is backing his Ford Econoline monster van over the top of a Toyota Camry. When he finished his brutal work, the Camry wouldn"t be going anywhere that didn"t involve the words "flatbed" and "chains."
