Nancy Pelosi’s initiative to convince Sandra Fluke to testify to the principle of contraception as a health care necessity is simply wrong. Colleges and universities provide accidental injury/major medical and not traditional employee health insurance to students. Since students are generally young and not subject to the myriad diseases confronting older people or families with children, the coverage is limited. Not only contraceptives, but many medical procedures and drugs are not included. Since sexual intercourse is an optional, and not a required activity of law school students, contraceptives should not be among policy provisions.

Ms. Fluke testified that 40% of the women in law school considered sexual intercourse a compelling or preferred recreational activity. Therefore, the proper place to make her case is with the Georgetown University Student Association. The university encourages students to actively engage in more than 200 co-curricular clubs and activities. She testified to what would be more accurately described as a club sport or performing art, than as a health care necessity.

The analogy should not be considered facetious, but should awaken people to the limits of targeted, low cost insurance programs.

A good maneuver when someone is pushing you hard is to step aside and let them fall on their face.

We all know the mind games obama and his leftist thugs try to play, but it's like in "War Games", playing tic-tac-toe...the best solution - and the most frustrating for the obamaites - is not to play.

Rush, and the candidates, all need to stay on the issues and let the left show their hand by harping on these frivilous issues.

Use the same tactic against obama as you would a pushy used car salesman...don't ask questions, don't make comments; it frustrates them because then they don't know which "comeback" to use to "sell you".

Like obama giving our military secrets to Russia, the conservatives tell the left too much, and they use it against us everytime.

Good points.
The whole idea of universal coverage is to force those people with low risks into the same risk poll as those with high risks, to lower the cost for the former. This is redistribution cloaked with the term 'insurance'. But what if young men in college just refuse to buy coverage, and their parents refuse to add them to their family policies?

So both sexes in this age group are getting ripped off,and Dems are using this contraceptive distraction to rally those young suckers against their own interest. They will be forced to pay much more while being told they are getting freebies, which mean old Republicans oppose because that HATE women..
