The Hypocrisy Files: McCain Was for the Republican War on Women Before He Was Against It
“The other big news in GOP politics today was the continuing unfolding reaction to Sen. John McCain repudiating the Republican ‘war on women’ Sunday on ‘Meet the Press.’ Excuse me if I’m not fully grateful for McCain’s allegedly brave stance. The man professed to believe that women have the right to their own decisions on contraception, but didn’t mention that he voted for the Blunt Amendment, which would have given employers the right to deny contraception coverage if they didn’t approve of it — in fact, to deny coverage of any treatment they personally disdained. What hypocrisy.”
