Encouraging birth control

President Obama and Claire McCaskill lead by example. They both have gainful employment.

John McMillen, who recently wrote a letter to the editor, does not appear to be a compassionate person.

Heck, girls may not have babies out of wedlock soon. Did not the paper report free birth control pills would be part of medical insurance now? In 2010, it beats me how any college girl gets pregnant. Watch your friend's back, if she's not abstaining, then encourage her to use the pill. Some parents tend to bury their head in the sand or be oblivious -- these days two parents working in the workforce.

Mr. McMillen, some hardworking, ambitious people are not as stingy as you.
