The Fluke Gambit Pays Off For Dems (Sandra is now the media-designated victim of Republicans)

Sandra Fluke is now the official, media-designated victim of woman-hating Republicans, with an assist from Rush Limbaugh.

Where have we seen this soap opera before? That's an important question, because this is the Big Play of the scapegoating left. It's pure, standard Alinsky, and they do it over and over again.

That's why it is important for normal, decent Americans to learn how it works. Once you recognize it you'll see it done over and over again. Conservatives who can't predict the radical left are losers. As in football, we have to study the playbook of the opposition. It's the first step toward beating them. They are more ruthless and coordinated than conservatives are. We are smarter but less coordinated.

Ms. Fluke is long-time feminist activist who graduated in 2003 from Cornell's "Feminist, Gender, & Sexuality Studies." In the decade since then Ms. Fluke has become a political professional for a huge range of feminist causes. She has worked for the (Democrat) Manhattan Borough Taskforce on Domestic violence and

"numerous other New York City and New York State coalitions... As the 2010 recipient of the Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles Fran Kandel Public Interest Grant, she researched, wrote, and produced an instructional film on how to apply for a domestic violence restraining order in pro per. ... Through Georgetown's clinic programs, Sandra has proposed legislation ... represented victims of domestic violence ... Sandra is the Development Editor of the Journal of Gender and the Law, and served as the President of Law Students for Reproductive Justice, and the Vice President of the Women's Legal Alliance."

All of which is fine with me. What's not fine is lending oneself to a planted political stunt in collusion with the vicious radical left. But that is exactly what Ms. Fluke has done.

1) She did not say that SHE HERSELF needed thousands/year in contraception.

Yes, and that's where she trapped Rush.

2) She did say that others did and are having a hard time paying for such lifestyle. 3) She was speaking on behalf of those others.

I read that she was coming at it from a medical perspective. That said I think she's a dangerous operative from the progressive left. She should be derided for her views. Rush calling her a slut incorrectly (she may actually be one but her testimony doesn't reveal that) has caused more damage than if he had done it from the Constitutional perspective.

I disagree.

For several decades the left has relied on our side “behaving” and always trying to be fair.

While they beat us about head and shoulders. Figuratively speaking.

There was no controversy when Sarah Palin was called that word.

I see this as having the positive outcome, that our side has been shaken from the “dignified” behavior which has cost our side so many elections, and starts treating liberals they way they’ve treated us.

Saul Alinsky baby.

RE: Grandmothers like to knit. Doesn’t in any way oblige the government to support them.

Hey, children need shoes don’t they? Poor people need shoes don’t they?

Which is more important for a person, to have shoes or to have contraceptives?

If kids don’t wear shoes, parasites can invade the body through the feet.

Shoes keep feet warm during the winter preventing people from freezing.

And shoes can be expensive too.

So, let’s have a tax payer supported program that pays for SHOES. How about that?

And since it is my idea, I volunteer to be the Secretary of the Department of Footwear (DOF).

And if people disagree with this, I’ll tell them it’s FOR THE CHILDREN. Don’t you care about children you cruel scrooge?

The problem with that (I hope it works) is that they have no shame. They are not embarrassed by mistakes or immoral actions. You can call them names but they just turn it around and cry "I am a victim" and it works most of the time.

There really needs to be some sort of awakening on the left but I don't see it.
