What “tampon rumor?” We learned from Twitter that known enemy of lady parts Mitt Romney will ban tampons if elected president. Some say the rumor was started by a lame political satire published months ago on the parody site Free Wood Post, but you can’t fool Ace and friends.
First they came for the Kotex, and I stayed silent, because I prefer Maxi-Pads.

If tampons are outlawed, only outlaws will have tampons. Think about it. I didn't.

@AceofSpadesHQ Tampons should be safe, legal, and rare.

Will Romney ban all tampons or just so-called "assault tampons" (those with wings and 50% more absorbent capacity)?

@AceofSpadesHQ High Capcity tampons definitely banned. Why would any sportsman need a military grade tampon in America?

@aceofspadeshq Romney doesn't want to ban tampons, he just wants reasonable restrictions like limiting women to 1 tampon a month.

@AceofSpadesHQ We need to revisit these "concealed carry" tampon laws.

@AceofSpadesHQ I expect that Romney will aggressively pursue a 5 day tampon waiting period.

@aceofspadeshq I say we tax the Hell out of them, and outlaw 232oz. tampons immediately.

@AceofSpadesHQ If you like your tampon, you do NOT get to keep your tampon.

@TheH2 Look, it doesn't matter what anyone says, GOP or Dem. At the end of the day, Big Tampon is pulling the strings. @aceofspadeshq

Fact check, please:
did you know that some women have to pay almost $18,000 per year for tampons??? That's just wrong. @TheH2 @aceofspadeshq

This Republican war on women has gone too far.
Mitt Romney's America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley tampons @aceofspadeshq

Has all of this tampon nonsense cleared up anything?
I will never again underestimate the ignorance of #Obama voters. http://t.co/dHOGKaFi #presidentladyparts #tampon #tcot
