I listened to it.

You have my condolences. If you were like me, you were fighting all kinds of emotions. I was angry that the media was covering this fraudulent 'presentation' to Democrats, during a recess, by somebody who had already been determined not to be an expert, and who wasn't allowed to give testimony to Congress on the issue.

On the other hand, before you tell people "[h]er testimony said she paid some huge amount for tuition and shouldn’t be expected to pay $3000" for contraception, I respectfully suggest you grab some anti-nausea medication and watch her again on YouTube, or, better and less damaging to your retinas, read her statement, as posted on FR. She never mentioned her tuition. And as for the $3,000 figure, she said that students could pay 'over' $3,000 during law school, which is three years long, for prescription contraceptives not covered by insurance. I interpret that, as do many others, as being 'over' $1,000 per year.

I'd respectfully suggest you've confused what you heard on Rush Limbaugh, or from somebody who listened to Rush Limbaugh, with what Sandra Fluke said. Fluke never mentioned her tuition at all. On March 1, Limbaugh said:

Here the numbers at Georgetown right now. Georgetown law costs $45,000 per year, $20,000 for room and board, sex not included. So tuition and room and board is 60 grand a year and this woman's up at Congress asking for thousands of dollars in birth control pills.
