Uh … what?
Via The Weekly Standard, the White House celebrated Mother’s Day (on Friday) with a big ol’ pom-pom wave for “free” contraceptives.

.@whitehouse Wait, what? Celebrate Mothers Day by celebrating the prevention of becoming a mother? #Clueless #moronic

White House marks #MothersDay by celebrating free birth control. #StuckOnStupid #tcot http://t.co/YGdWNrM77E

@whitehouse I'm not certain, but touting birth control in the same tweet as #happymothersday may come off as a bit absurd.

Also absurd? The age range in the White House’s tweet.
The @whitehouse actually just touted birth control for 65 year olds…..I can't.

Granted Obamacare includes “preventive care” other than birth control, but the wording of that tweet just invites so much mockery.
I didn't realize women past 45 needed birth control, it's called menopause @chris_moody @whitehouse

@whitehouse Lots of women in their 50s and 60s lovin' that "free" birth control? Must be a Fluke.

The @whitehouse IS PUSHING birth control for 65 year old women? I can't take this anymore.
