Sandra Fluke is a law student at Georgetown University, a Catholic institution. She fancies herself as an expert on birth control. She wants free birth control. Now. When House Republicans would not let her testify as an expert on birth control, Democrats paraded her out and she received unabashedly favorable publicity. The Washington press loves these liberal dog-and-pony shows.
From ABC:
Fluke’s prepared testimony included details of fellow female students at Georgetown University who’d been denied contraceptive coverage because of the university’s Catholic affiliation. Fluke said that one of her friends experienced complications stemming from ovarian cysts that could have been treated with birth control pills, and doctors were forced to remove her ovary.
Fluke, who is in her third year of law school, testified that Georgetown did not cover contraception on its health plan, which she said could cost as much as $3,000 during a student’s law school career.
“I felt not insulted for myself but for the women I wanted to represent, women who were silenced,” Fluke said.
So not only do you have a right to free birth control, but a right to testify at whatever congressional hearing you want.
Math class is tough, but let us do the math. A month’s supply of The Pill can cost up to $50 a month, according to CBS.
Over a three-year period, that would be $1,800.
She would pay $3,000 to get $1,800 worth of goods. This is why I think she is stupid.

Obviously, this butch b*tch was promised a job by a member of the 0bama regime. Perhaps Janet Napolitano or Elena Kagan?
HMMM red ribbons for AIDS awareness,yellow ribbons to show support for our troops, pink ribbons for breast cancer awareness, puzzle pieces ribbons for autism awareness, what color ribbons for STUPID awareness?
I’ve seen her. The only reason she has all this wonderful sex is because it’s the only way to keep a guy interested past the first five minutes.
I suggest she start the Georgetown Tanstaaff Contraceptive Co-op. Members pay $30 a month, those who do well on the $9 a month generics will subsidize those who must have the $100 a month brand prescriptions. Prophylactics and dental dams will be available for the LGBT community who also have the right to express their sexuality and enjoy relationships while protecting their health and career paths. Membership will be open to all women who wish to purchase contraceptives, all men hoping to get laid and anyone in solidarity with them.
Managing the co-op will be a true education in health care justice and economics.
This woman spends $3,000 annually on birth control? She must take her morning-after pills twice a night and buy her early-warning pregnancy tests by the six packs.
I am betting this LAW STUDENT is lying to Congress
She should be deposed to provide facts to support her andedoctal testimony. Let her name the woman whose fertility was impaired for lack of access to a $9 per month drug.
Including copies of her bills for birth control and how it fit into her personal budget for books and beer
She’s got man hands, baby
I smell BS in this story. This Fluke character stated that her friend wouldn’t be covered in a Catholic institution for BC pills to deal with ovarian cysts. Fluke is lying. Back during DeValera’s time in Ireland, you couldn’t get more Catholic than that, BC pills were illegal for contraception. However they were legal for other medical reasons, thus Ireland had the highest rate of women with female problems. I cannot believe that Eamonn DeValera would allow it, but 2012 Georgetown University would not.
As mentioned before, oral contraceptives carry serious health warnings for a reason, including that they don’t protect against std’s.
As usual the democrats are commiting serious medical malpractice against these young women.
She has a mouth.
Problem solved.....
On the ABC new blurb on the radio as I was coming home from work, I heard a report that Rush Limbaugh called her a "slut and a prostitute" for testifying before congress.
Let's just examine this... First off, she didn't testify before congress. She talked in front of the ministry of propaganda and some hard core leftist legislators. Secondly he never called her those names for "testifying." He called her a prostitute for wanting to be paid for sex. She insists that someone pay for her sexual escapades, and that's the dictionary definition of prostitution.
And on a local call-in show, this idiot woman host was going off on how birth control should be covered by all insurance companies, since viagra is covered on all insurance companies. The male co-host told her that it's NOT covered by all insurance, and her insistence to the opposite was wrong. She said "well that's what I heard."
After a break, she quoted an ABC news report that "a pharmacist said that 50% of all Viagra prescriptions filled were covered by insurance."
If you aren't careful, you might mistake this for 50% of men who get viagra prescriptions get it covered by insurance. But that's simply not true, and it skews WAY to the side of insurance coverage. But if you actually read what it says, it says 50% of all prescriptions FILLED. At more than $20 a tablet, just how many uncovered prescriptions are filled? It's going to be far fewer than is inferred by people who want to have the taxpayer to pay for their sexual escapades.

Wouldn't cost the stupid slut a dime if she learned how to keep her legs closed.
This is really sad. THis girl is advocating her lack of health because she is so retarded and the country has motivated her to be so.
Your body is not like a house that you can clean as easily with modern day niceties such as a vaccuum cleaner.
ANd even if it was, it is extremely disrespectful of oneself to even let people soil your house and clean up after them. But sadly, this government feminist now wants the tax payer to do the cleaning for what trash her boyfriend leaves, because he is somehow so special.
Shades of adoration for Messiah Obama.

Spot on!
She and her “Sister Soldiers” enjoy recreational sex. I enjoy recreational shooting.
Buy my ammo, dang it!
The genre rhymes with “dream lie”.
After talking with a lot of single girls, I realized that slut is a relative term. It is applied to any woman who has slept with more men than the woman who was speaking.
Let’s remember this “child” can still be included on her parents’ policy ~ why blame the school or the government?
