Fox News Compares Helping Battered Women To Getting a Manicure

In a move that surprised exactly no one, Fox News has launched a shrill protest against the Obama administrations’ decision to have heath insurance companies provide counseling for abused women with no co-pays (among several other benefits for women).

While it has always been clear that reason and compassion are not Fox’s strong points, one would hope that battered women would be a subject they might tread lightly around. Then I remembered that, on Fox, a rape/murder is the fault of the victim for dressing sexy.

Whatever was I thinking?

From Family PAC Federal Vice President Sandy Rios on Fox:

“Is the White House out of their mind? Does the West Wing not know what the left wing is doing? We’re $14 trillion in debt and now we’re going to cover birth control, breast pumps, counseling for abuse? Are we going to do pedicures and manicures as well?”
