"She probably spends that on batteries"

Although Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke testified to the House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee last month that contraception can cost a law student $3,000 over three years and that some of her fellow students could not afford it, a Target store only 3 miles from the law school currently sells a month's supply of birth control pills for only $9 to people who do not have insurance plans covering contraceptives.
That would make the total cost for birth control pills for a student who decided to use them for all three years of law school just $324.
Fluke was the sole witness who appeared on Feb. 23 before an all-Democratic panel chaired by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).“Without insurance coverage, contraception can cost a woman over $3,000 during law school," Fluke said. "For a lot of students who, like me, are on public interest scholarships, that’s practically an entire summer’s salary. Forty percent of female students at Georgetown Law report struggling financially as a result of this policy.

“One student told us of how embarrassed and powerless she felt when she was standing at the pharmacy counter, learning for the first time that contraception wasn’t covered, and had to walk away because she couldn’t afford it," said Fluke. "Women like her have no choice but to go without contraception."

Okay so she is not a slut and is instead a lying political whore..
Got it.........
Who still demands that I pay for her not being able to keep her knees together.
"She probably spends that on batteries"
I thought Planned Parenthood was the forerunner in providing free birth control to women? I clicked on their website and it says they charge based on income so why wouldn’t this “financially disadvantaged” student qualify for free or reduced cost women’s issues health care (did I get in all the buzz words?)?
Isn't there some appeal to that notion?
I heard she’s a lesbian, so the birth control pill is a non-issue for her.
Are these affirmative action students? because they don’t seem smart enough to be going to college, let alone law school
It is now a community organizing movement to shut Rush up going into the election. They are pressuring Clear Channel
..Yet, according to the Web sites of the three Planned Parenthood clinics located in Washington, D.C., condoms “cost about $1 each, but are sometimes available for free.”
The three Planned Parenthood clinics are located between 1.2 and 3.2 miles
“Qu’elles non baisent pas.”
Of course it is. They have successfully turned the discussion away from the attack on religion to Rush calling a young woman a slut. And as usual, liberal don’t care about facts, just emotion
“Without insurance coverage, contraception can cost a woman over $3,000...”
Key word: can
And a car CAN cost $500,000 or more. So? Do you know anyone who has paid much more than a tenth of that and ended up with an amazing car?
The three weapons of the lest:
Ad Hominem
Straw Man
Red Herring
It’s literally all they have.
“Qu’elles utilisent les vibrateurs.”
Fluke is Pelosi’s expert on ‘women's health issues”. Looks like with all the expert ‘testimony’ on woman's issues this somehow got missed from Dems staged act.
After Issa's hearing on religious liberty Pelosi organized her women house members to a press conference to protest Republicans holding a hearing on women's health issues without a woman testifying. Republican's dont seem to have a clue how to counter Dems with their own staged drama for the voters or at least segments of them. You didnt see them protest Pelosi holding a press conference on religious liberty without any religious leaders 'testifying' did you? In fact I think they ran scared, especially Issa.

Not her. Just her heterosexual “friends”. ;-)
I would assume Ms. Fluke is an ardent feminist, so why is she providing her own birth control and not requiring her partner(s) to at least share in the cost? Isn’t she thus allowing men(presumably) to exploit her for sex and thus is in feminist thinking allowing herself to be raped?
She’s an elitist wannabe that wouldn’t be caught dead in Target.
She’s a lesbian that really doesn’t need birth control.
