Idle question

Why would anyone who really believes that Republicans want to prevent insurance companies from covering contraception think that it's a good idea for the government to get to decide what insurance companies must or must not cover?

Possible answers:

1. "Obviously, there's no real Republican "war on women" - it's all just political kabuki theatre."
2. "The Republicans have lost power FOREVER! It doesn't matter that we'll give the government the power to control those things - the scary Republicans will never again wield that power!"
3. "I don't get it. What's the connection between those two things?"

Is there a good reason that I've missed? I'm not seeing one...
