MSNBC The RACHEL MADDOW Show - Oct. 20, 2011: Man Cave - Romney Edition. An Iowa town hall attendant asks candidate Romney why he says he would support a 'Life Begins at Conception' amendment which would conceivably (pun intended) outlaw hormonal birth control, among the most popular forms of birth control, because they interfere with pregnancy precesses occurring even after an egg meets up with a sperm. Romney says the amendment would not affect birth control because birth control prevents conception. The woman explains that this is not necessarily true. Romney seems to not have a clue how this works and what she is talking about and does not answer the woman.

Rachel explains how this works to the men.

1. Her "Man Cave" vignettes are ingenious.
Designed in words and visuals to get males to focus and easy enough to understand. Rachel is super.

3. I caught this on the late-nite replay at work
thought it was completely subversive in the best kind of way, and absolutely riotously funny. I had kinda a bad week, so thanks Rachel, you are the Brass Ring, as always.=)

5. Mitt Romney is an idiot, This is not because he is a male.
It was stupid for her to use stereotypes.

15. This is awesome
Just to jump in...many MEN do not think the way described here.

However, REPUBLICAN men seem to do so almost invariably.

16. And how many women DON'T know the details as well?
Edited on Fri Oct-21-11 10:10 PM by Merlot
I mean, yes, they know about birth control, but do they know that this "life begins at conception" thing means banning birth control? There are probably many women who don't know these facts.

The man cave is cute, and perfect when talking to mittens, but this information is needed by women as well.

CONSERVATIVES WANT TO BAN BIRTH CONTROL!
