Meet law student and feminist hero Sandra Fluke 6:24 PM 03/03/2012
The country knows Sandra Fluke as the beleaguered third-year Georgetown University Law Center student who has been criticized by conservatives notably radio giant Rush Limbaugh for her recent testimony about co-eds contraceptive needs before Congressional Democrats.
But the 30-year-old student who stirred the debate is no novice to the political arena. Fluke has a long history of feminist advocacy: The Washington Post reported Fluke entered Georgetown Law well aware that the schools insurance plan did not cover contraception, only to spend the next three years lobbying the school to change its policy.
Fluke attended Cornell University from 1999-2003, where she received a B.S. in Policy Analysis & Management and Feminist, Gender, & Sexuality Studies.
While at Cornell, Flukes organized actives centered around the far-left feminist and gender equity movements. Fluke participated in rallies supporting abortion, protests against war in Iraq and efforts to recruit other womens rights activists to campus.
During that period, she gained experience engaging in disputes concerning abortion with religious organizations.
We feel that the information [Cornell Coalition for Life] has out is reactionary and its not based on giving people information about their choices, but manipulating their emotions, Fluke, then the treasurer of Students Acting for Gender Equality (SAGE), told The Cornell Daily Sun during a protest of a pro-life display at the schools Ho Plaza. We want to show people they should have a choice about a decision this important and whatever choice they make, well support it, she said.
After college, Fluke put on her career-woman hat and worked at Vintage New York for nine months before settling in at the Sanctuary for Families in New York City, where she stayed until she began law school in 2009.

What single woman gets on national TV, addressing Congress, and tells the world she is sexually active but cant afford the pill. Then she says it just aint right that the gubment does not pay for her to have sex.
The girl is a moron and her parents must be hiding their head in shame. Rush is exactly right. She exposed herself for being nothing in the world but a slut.

I have to believe right now that Monica Lewinsky is breathing a sigh of relief. Someone now is worse than she. In fact someone just stole the limelight from Monica.
