“If Fluke is a lesbian, why would she need birth control pills?
If Fluke was heterosexual or spent much time with straight women, why wouldn’t she know damn well that birth control pills were available for $9/month at the discount pharmacy?”

Yes, $9.00 for a 30 day supply. Or, even cheaper, $24 for a 90 day supply (which works out to $96 per year). That was Rush’s whole point. The difference between that $96 per year cost and the $1,000 (or $3,000 - I’ve read conflicting reports) that Fluke said she needs for her reproductive health would then what she would need for condoms. And that residual $904 (or $2,904) of Fluke’s “yearly reproductive needs” would buy a VAST NUMBER OF CONDOMS to satisfy her “need”. Rush was making fun of the VERY foolish MISS FLUKE and the various other Obama flunkies and apologists. He was also pointing out that, once you think it through, she was really asking for we tax payers to subsidize her “stated” sexual activity. Not that I believe for one moment, given her not particularly alluring appearance, she’d have any success finding the needed quantity of Washington DC males to fulfill that annual activity (this is assuming Bill Clinton does not move back to DC and start hanging out around Georgetown Law School again).
It was $3k for the three year duration of the law degree, or $1K per year.
