In most situations, "contraception" and "birth control" do have the same meaning. I don't think Michaelr's thread title was misleading - in two words, he summed up exactly what was in the MoveOn statement.

But MoveOn exaggerated the situation, and played loose with the facts to put more "spin" on the issue. I think this goes to show you that MoveOn is simply a propaganda organization, not a reliable source of information. It does appear that the Bush Administration is up to dirty tricks in the area of birth control, but the MoveOn statement exaggerates things to the point where MoveOn is no longer a credible source.

Too bad.
