Greetings, Dot Calm Readers -

If you scroll down through today's offerings, you will see the following headline in great big friendly letters:

Colo. Family Planning Program Linked to 48% Decline in Teen Birth, Abortion Rates

Why oh WHY, then, do Tea Partiers and evangelical Christians want to deprive women of access to birth control?

Aren't they all up in arms about hating abortion?

Don't they see the connection...?

Keep reading...you will find some reminiscences that show why this fight was so important to Dot Calm--and, therefore, why it is so important to me, Dot's faithful shadow.

Read on; then fight on!
