Sandra Fluke ‘Strongly Considering’ Run for Henry Waxman’s Seat
National Journal ^ | January 30, 2014 | Marina Koren

Posted on 01/30/2014 3:14:12 PM PST by Clintonfatigued

Just a few hours after news of Waxman's departure broke, a potential (and young) candidate has spoken up: Sandra Fluke.

"I'm flattered that I'm being discussed as a potential candidate," Fluke, 32, told KPCC, a California radio station. "A number of folks I respect very deeply have reached out today and encouraged me to run. I am strongly considering running."

Her name should ring a bell. Two years ago, in February, Fluke was barred from testifying at a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing about contraception. Chairman Darrell Issa said that because Fluke was not a member of the clergy, she could not appear on the ultimately all-male panel, which was supposed to discuss contraception in relation to religious freedom.

So House Democrats convened an unofficial hearing themselves. Fluke, then a third-year law student at Georgetown, spoke in support of the Affordable Care Act's requirement that insurance companies cover contraceptives like birth control.

Waxman’s district includes West Hollywood, I doubt Sandra is gay enough for that constituency...

The only way she doesn’t get it is if the elitist wackos have another grifter they have been grooming.

For years we have had those amateur whores in congress screwing us and making us pay for it!

Now we might have a professional who does it for free.

These wouldn't be people who have gotten to know you (in the Biblical sense) would they,sweetie?

Never happen. (Sarcastic comment: “I’m sure her many years on the east coast give her in-depth knowledge of west LA.”)

There are dozens of politically correct NON-carpetbaggers out here just slobbering over this vacancy, and it’s ALREADY going to be Thunderdome just amongst THEM.

Fluke might win in some DC-area district, but not here (Waxman’s CA-33).

So the fact that she's nothing more than a common nightwalker doesn't enter into this at all?

Yeah, what’s with Obama and “folks”. And did you notice how quickly the media started parroting his use of it? Now it’s like every other ABC radio news blurb they’re talking about “folks”.

Would she have time to handle the business of the office, what with having so much sex that it requires $8000 worth of birth control each year???

How could she possibly get any work done?

She’s as qualified as Obama.

Which means ....

Yes, it means she should run for pResident.

What's that? She's only 32? Show me on her long form birth certificate.

besides, if we can stretch the foreign-born non-NBC, whats a few years difference to 35 make?
