Speak Out: The Duggars' Stance on Birth Control

The stars of TLC's "19 and Counting" are coming to Woodbridge on Oct. 16 to support Ken Cuccinelli.

With the Duggar family visiting Woodbridge this Wednesday to campaign for Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli., what are your thoughts on their anti-contraceptives stance?

The Duggars are Quiverfull, which means that they are pro-life and do not believe in using any form of birth control. What do you think their endorsement of Cuccinelli means for his chances at governor? 

"I give the Duggars lots of credit. They are true to their personal convictions, love their family and believe they are responsible for the care and well being of their children. Refreshing since so many believe the government should take care of their offspring," commenter Juanita Holly wrote.

"The Duggars make me sorta sick......and they certainly can't be for small government, as they consume a lot of government services! And I think anyone who puts their kids on a TV reality show is nuts and not a very good parent," commenter oldtowner wrote.
