The FDA is trying to create a national age of consent. Here's an article from the New York Times, timed for a weekend release to duck controversy of course.

Note that it's not that the FDA claims the drug might be more prone to adverse effects in a 14 year old than a 17 year old. They're worried about the 'effect the easy availability might have on' her morals. They don't use the term morals, of course, but that's obviously what they're thinking of when they talk about sexual behavior or whatever term they do use. Since when is that the FDA's job?
Speaking of morals, what became of that archconservative OB-GYN doctor who was one of the 4 nay votes in that 23-4 decision to recommend that 'Plan B' (the morning after pill)? I remember his wife divorced him, citing years of coerced anal sex. Is he still on the FDA, trying to foist his 'morals' on the rest of us?
