VRA----Vasectomy Reversal Act

I would surmise that when we have a woman President that a law will be passed whereby men who have had vasectomies will have to have them surgically reversed. Pre-op requirements will be a rather invasive catheter insertion review of their entire genitalia. Of course, a surgical review team will be appointed in each state so that state’s rights can be preserved. My question here is, should the review panels be comprised of women only? Should there be a priority for the procedure for men who have so rigorously supported ultrasound procedures for women seeking abortions? After all, the very act of having a vasectomy is forbidden by many religions and stands in the way of the birth process. It certainly is considered a contraceptive measure. I certainly feel that this procedure should not be paid for under Obamacare!

If you don't want children, then make damn sure you are shooting blanks. I'd rather see a waste of sperm than a child born without a father.

If they are so much against a woman's right to choose and like to be in control--this is an ideal opportunity for them to "have it all"----
