Meet The Left's Newest Hero: Sandra Fluke
— DrewM

Thanks to the genius of Rush Limbaugh, Sandra Fluke has gone from a one day story to poster child for the conservatives supposed hatred of sex and sexual active unmarried women.

Georgetown University officials have released a statement defending law student Sandra Fluke, calling Rush Limbaugh’s attacks “misogynistic” and Fluke “a model of civil discourse.”

...

Appearing on NBC’s “Today,” Sandra Fluke said she was “stunned” and “outraged” by Limbaugh’s comments, which she deemed “an attempt to silence me, to silence all of us from speaking about the healthcare we need.”

Fluke, a third-year law student, testified about GeorgetownÂ’s policy on contraception during an unofficial hearing last Thursday that was led by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). She argued that birth control should be covered by health insurance at religious institutions.

Now Obama is personally calling Fluke. No doubt they intend to make her the Rosa Parks of conservatism war on contraception and sex or something.

So in a short time the story has gone from Obama's attack on religious freedom and overreaching regulatory state to prudish conservatives who hate sex and attack sexually active women. Oh and Rush Limbaugh. Seems only Obama and Limbaugh benefit from that. Funny how that works out, huh?

We really need to decide what we fighting about in this election. Is it the economy and Obama's unprecedented power grabs or the sexual morals of America? When we make this decision we should keep in mind that Obama and the Democrats want it to be the latter.

6 Oh, shut the fuck up. She's a 30-something slut who never learned to keep her knees together. She's a whore who can't even give good service -- she demands everyone pay for her sex, but probably only puts out on special sorority nights when it's just her, her "sisters", and their utility belts.

12 This is Breitbart's legacy. You have to confront the Left on their lies. Fluke is flat out lying and she has to be called on it openly. The Right could care less if she sleeps her way through her entire educational career. Don't ask us to pay for it. It's not her healthcare needs, it's her having someone else pay for the products she is choosing to use.

21 This was all planned a long time ago. The Left choreographed this whole thing in order to get certain people to respond. And here right on cue is Rush Limbaugh.

25 I think this like everything else Obama does, helps in short-term, hurts him longterm. The women who think conservatives want to regulate their sex lives will forget about all of this if Romney or Newt is the nominee. Meanwhile, religious independents aren't going to forget Obama's attack on religious freedom.

Target charges $9 a month for contraception for the uninsured. Condoms are free in many places.

 

 

For $9 a month, a faith is being compelled to change a belief it has held for 2000 years. That's astonishing.

 

 

I'm a woman. If women employees of Catholic institutions have been suffering for lo these many years because the Church wouldn't buy them pills or pay for their abortions, those hard working boys and girls in the media _never_ mentioned it. It's almost like this controversy has been ginned up to 1) spread hatred among people, like community organizers do and 2) force Catholic hospitals to close, which would create more of a "necessity" for single-payer health care.

27 Fluke is like many of the Hurricane Katrina parasites, or that woman who "got evicted" in Florida: a pre-fab sob story to trot in front of cameras to turn on the government spigot, but when background-checked just a teensy bit reeks of charlatanism and professional victimhood.

28 You know what? I blame stupid-ass Georgetown. Really guys? You do any looking into your JD candidates? She was clearly a poor fit for a Catholic college. She was a 30 year old activist who was *looking* for an opportunity to challenge a Catholic institution. Maybe it's time for Catholic schools - all Catholic schools - to vet their incoming students a tad better.

29 Something that's been bothering me for a while now.  But as AB said, they set the narrative.  And it works like a charm when you have that media power.  One stupid question from Stephaluphagus and a month later, "pffffft...what economic or employment problems?"

They made a mistake on this one though, just like their attacks on the acorn videos, they are too early.  This one has the opportunity to be turned into huge mocking on them.  Not that I think we should give it any more time, unless talked about in terms of the tragedy of socialist healthcare obamacare.

41 "The Rosa Parks of the conservative war on contraception". That's a good description or what they are trying to make her, but she's not. As far as I'm concerned most people whom Obama calls to congratulate are people I neither admire or respect, and am SO glad she is not my daughter. No doubt her parents are some liberals who think her utterances are prizeworthy, but whatever any conservatives say or do liberals will always object. Give her a job in the Obama administration NOW; They might as well. I have already lost a liberal friend over the fact that I believe this an issue of conscience and an attack on the church and they don't. At this point I don't care.

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at March 02, 2012 09:28 AM (n9jo/)

42 That's some silencing. She's testified in front of some Congressional members before Rush says a word and after the DNC has created the bullet point for dissemination for a couple of weeks. And now she's bitching about The Silencing™ on national TV.

Were she any more silenced, Fluke would awaken Susan B. Anthony's corpse.

44 So where was Obama, Pelosi, Lauer, Geortown University, and Fluke when Sarah Palin's detractors were screaming 'Cunt' at her during personal appearances? Or those that wore t-shirts to her appearances with the word 'cunt' emblazoned across the front? Or the wannabe hack knit blogger that  used the same word in her 'artistic' creations? Or the armies of liberal twitterers, Kos posters, Huffpo followers, etc, etc, etc, that all used the word cunt to attack SP?

This sudden indignation on the part of the left rings hollow.

50 I think I understand your frustration, DrewM, but fights like this can handle (and probably require) different voices approaching it from different angles. I realize (and tend to agree) that we may be missing the forest (government intrusion on our lives in a broader sense) for the trees (government forcing religious groups to go against their consciences), but for some people the way Rush frames this is exactly how they need to have it portrayed. The media is going to call us prudish bigots no matter what we do... except, perhaps that old hound Newt Gingrich! lol... so I wouldn't sweat it.

54 This Sandra Fluke woman was claiming that contraception cost $3,000 a year... a cost she wanted someone else, taxpayers, other people on her insurance plan... to pay for.

An enterprising reporter found out that not only are free condoms abundantly available on the Georgetown campus, but birth patrol pills could be acquired from local merchants for as little as $9 a month.

So, at most, it would cost $108 a year for birth patrol pills. What did she need the other $2,892 for? That's what, four or five abortions? Now, unlike Andrew Sullivan, I am not an expert on female reproduction systems. But I wouldn't think a woman can get pregnant five times in a normal year.

61
Limbaugh's attacks have been so squarely off base it has become hard to listen too. I think he went over the line, and has spent a whole week trying to spin it as not over the line. It has been totally self serving. Instead of concentrating on the real story which is she is a plant, and a planned agitator, he has subverted his own message, our message, and this cause in general.

I stood by him in "I hope he fails" I thought it was the truth and the right thing to say.

This is f*king killing us and there is no way to defend it. A woman who thinks it's someone else's responsibility to pay for her contraception is not a prostitute, she's a childish entitleist narcissist; but not a prostitute.

It ain't the "truth" Rush, there ain't no "I should say it because it's the truth" defense Rush. Because it's just not. So instead of maligning her for the unusual belief that someone else should be forced to pay for her contraception, he maligns her for her sexual habits. Lose lose lose lose.

As long as the progessive liberals control the media, we will always be fighting with a handicap.  The fact that this religious freedom argument is being framed as "conservatives hate sex and women" shows how the playing field is not even.  The American populace is dummed down sufficiently that the media can spin the truth, and the people will buy it.

We need a long game strategy to infiltrate schools and the media. 

At the end of the day, we lose unless this is framed in the proper light: "Obamacare's unconstitutional mandates violate the free exercise of religion." 

Rush may be right.  But we are losign the battle of public opinion.

Plus, this is a total distraction from winning campaign issues: the economy.

Posted by: California Red at March 02, 2012 09:33 AM (DXTKe)

74 The fact is this chick decided to make her sex life an issue, but she is too much of a baby to take the flak from a private citizen like Limbaugh. Cry me a river. The reason Rush countered her the way he did was because she decided to climb up on the cross of female victimhood. Had she merely stated her political opinion, the counter arguments would have stayed political. She decided to make it personal. And it's still a far cry from the Administration and its cronies' personal vendettas against the Joe the Plumbers of this world.

Sorry I am not getting on the bash Rush train. Rush is Rush, he says shit like this. That is why people listen to him. Sometimes it hurts sometimes it helps.

 

What he said wouldn't have been said if we didn't have a candidate that has let the left use his quotes on rubbers to change the subject.

 

If anyone played into the lefts plan it was Rick Santorum. The argument should have always been on the first amemdment and government forcing you to buy an insurance policy you don't want. Instead we have Santorum saying birth control is bad for women and bad for the country.

I don't blame Rush, per se.  I blame the GOP establishment, its candidates, and yes, talkers like Rush who focus on stupid shit like this instead of focusing about the important issues needed to get this SCOAMF out of office.  Fluke is a troll, and like most trolls, she should be ignored, IMO.

Drew,

 

I'm sorry, but you are pathetic.  In the wake of Andrew Breibart's death you do exactly what he dedicated his life to fighting.  Instead of making a principled argument for or against what Limbaugh actually said, you accept the liberal spin and attack our own side.

 

When will the right figure out the accepting the left's framing of issues is a no-win proposition.  Good lord, Drew, grow a set of balls.

90 Yes, let's pile on Limbaugh for making a mockery of this Fluke and her "needs." It's always best to kneecap those who lead as opposed to letting leaders have their say while complementing them with your own critique of the target.

We need to stop letting the left distract us with arguments about what color paint to use on the walls. Arguing about contraceptives is for losers. Get rid of Obama, and we can just shut down Obama "care" and be done with it.

She'd get a lot more taxpayer dollars if she did get knocked up. Local and state taxpayers are already paying millions for contraception for "poor women" that they can't be bothered to learn about/remember to use correctly, partly for cultural reasons (no baby = why don't men want you?) and partly because getting knocked up has great financial incentives.

Oh, I heard about her before she was mentioned by Rush. In fact ABC carried on radio and tv ALL fucking day the day she wanted to "testify" in front of a congressional hearing for religious leaders on freedom of religion. The house wouldn't "LET HER" because it was a trained seal thing and she wasn't a religious leader. The orginal hearing happened to be all male so the Pelosi meme was that they were having a hearing on birth control and they wouldn't let a WOMAN talk. LEFTY LEFTY BLAH BLAH

 

Couple of days later Pelosi has her own PRETEND hearings where she has this slut show up and whine about "womens health" and the high price of fucking.

 

Couple of days later Rush says why do we have to pay for this slut's condoms?

 

All hell breaks loose

 

IT WAS PELOSI NOT RUSH AND ABC.

Speaker John Boehner on Friday denounced radio host Rush Limbaugh’s “slut” remarks aimed at Georgetown University student Sandra Fluke, but the Ohio Republican also jabbed at Democrats who have been fundraising off the fracas. “The speaker obviously believes the use of those words was inappropriate, as is trying to raise money off the situation,” Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said in an e-mail Friday morning.

Carly Fiorina, the former HP CEO who ran for Senate in California in 2010 and now serves as Vice-Chairwoman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, became the first high profile Republican to come out against Rush Limbaugh’s sexist attacks against Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke, condemning the radio host on CBS this morning. “That language is insulting, in my opinion. It’s incendiary and most of all, it’s a distraction. It’s a distraction from what are very real and important issues,” Fiorina said.

I'm not sure why she needs contraception if she truly is a lesbian.  I'm not a woman, but I think I know that contraception is supposed to prevent a sperm and an egg from meeting.  If two women are going at it, I'm not so sure there's a sperm cell in that equation.  So why the need for $1000/year?  Are they fucking each other with semen encrusted dildos?

181 I don't think the Democrats have the slightest clue how badly this plays in most of America. They think everyone is like them at a Manhattan cocktail party or Hollywood debauch. We're not. And its going to hurt them badly.
As of late it seems like the left is more and more disconnected with America. November 2010 caught a lot of them by surprise. They GENUINELY thought the Tea Party was a small group of GOP operatives and dying out radicals, not a huge grass roots movement.
Think about it. The press they read and the people they associate with deliberately avoid certain topics, news stories, and information. They simply do not get the data they need to accurately understand the world or their own neighbors. They aren't dumb, they're just deliberately keeping themselves ignorant.
Most of the topics we talk about like Fast & Furious, Solyndra, or Pigford they are either totally clueless about or only have the official party line of extremely limited, spun shreds of information. They just don't know.
That's why Olbermann really honestly thought Gingrich's crack about rapes at Occupy events was some hateful right wing smear, he honestly just had no clue about the crimes and horrors at those places. Because he's deliberately keeping himself out of the loop.

198 Drew, when was the "story" (by which I assume you mean the media narrative) ever about Obama's attack on religious freedom and and overreaching regulatory state? Never. From the beginning with the Stephanopoulos debate question this was an orchestrated setup to change the subject and frame the question the way the Dems wanted. Rush has pointed out the absurdity of a grown woman asking everyone else to subsidize her sex life. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't. But since when have we expected the MSM to cover the truth about a Dem administration? Or have you not noticed all the stories lately about our vigorous economic turnaround?

Drew, I have to disagree with you turning the blame for this story on Rush.  Again, this isn't about morality.       This is about personal responsibility.

 

Rush      called this Fluke woman a slut and a whore because what she wants is for other people to pay so she can have sex.  That's what it is.  She wants to be able to have sex with whoever she wants on someone else's dime.  She wants to exchange someone else's money for her own sexual escapades.       How is that     any different    than an escort service?         The difference, of course,     is the ones paying her tab aren't the ones she's having sex with.  No, the ones paying her tab are the ones she chooses to verbally excoriate as misogynistic neanderthals     for questioning their responsibility for underwriting her libidinous lifestyle,    be they a religious organization that doesn't support contraception, or taxpayer dollars as allocated    thru Obamacare.

 

I say bring it on, Rush.    This thirty-something libertine feminista shouldn't get to come onto the public scene pretending to be some      oppressed little woman and then get to fade into the background.   Expose her for what she is:     an     up-and-coming      feminist     harridan.

I posted this on an earlier thread, but I feel the need to re-post it here - I went extra heavy on the snark:


 
Pay to Play (or, No, I Don't Want to Subsidize Your Sex Life)

http://wp.me/p1ipEz-1kp


You want to be able to have consequence-free sex, and you want ME to pay for it with higher insurance rates? OK, fine – I’ll make you a deal:


 
IÂ’ll pay for your drunken weekends with whichever guy straps on the beer goggles at last call, but in return I expect you to keep your piehole shut when you have to pay higher insurance rates for MY lifestyle choices.


And boy, howdy, am I going to stick it to you BUT GOOD.


 
You just THINK youÂ’ve been screwed by all of those Frat Boys, but it is nothing compared to the rogering you are going to get from me.


 
I am going to start living a life of indulgent luxury – I’m going to plop my fat ass on my couch and watch television all day long – no exercise for me. I’m going to eat the fattiest, greasiest foods that I can find – there isn’t going to be a vegetable in sight. I don’t drink, smoke, or use drugs, but I am thinking about taking them up – just so I can run up your insurance premiums.


 
You see Ms. Fluke, you have as much as admitted that no one has to take personal responsibility for their actions. No, you sat in front of a national audience and said that each of us has to pay for whatever other people in the rest of the country decide they want to do.


 
And if you donÂ’t want them telling you what you can or cannot do with YOUR body, then you sure as heck donÂ’t get to tell them what they can or cannot do with theirs.

I agree with all that. What I disagree with is giving this scrunt additional time in the media spotlight. Rush could have criticized her without ringing the feminzasi bells by calling her a slut and a prostitute. Now instead of talking about whether or not it's appropriate to subsidize a lifestyle you don't agree wiht, we're talking about whether or not it was appropriate for Rush to call somebody a slut.

I don't listen to Rush very often, I'm just not a big talk radio listener in general, but to me he serves a valuable role. And, moreover, there's a market for it, so good for him. It's not Rush's job to serve the Republican Party, particularly when that party is led by so many idiots who don't give a rat's ass about the people who elected them as much as they care about keeping their power and perqs.

224 Uhm, I guess folks aren't aware that Mary Clogenstein is a long-time satirical sock?  I thought everyone knew.

And having listened to Rush when this all started, and while it is going on, I can only say many of you are falling for the Leftist trap.  This has always been bullshit testimony, and Rush called her on it.  The Left is doing what they always do, try to make it about something it is not.

You all want our side to fight. Until, the fight becomes uncomfortable, I guess.

Did everyone miss the part where nobody (Rush included) gave a shit about this woman's sexual practices until she sat down in front of Congress and demanded that other people pay for them? 

 

Stop complaining that this gives the left a reason to talk about contraceptives, they'll do that no matter what else is said because it's all they have to fall back on.  If these necessary moderates and independents have the brains that we assume they do, it'll be easy enough to see that this is the leftist brand of forcing social issues down everyone's throats.   Do we really want to waste our time with the people who can't understand that simple equation?

It is repeatedly brought up when some so-con whines that others say talking about sodomy is a losing issue. Calling her a slut might be funny, might be true, but it's not a winner.

That's true. But he walked into the trap of maligning this girl for her sexual habits, which is a loser, and then drawing a parallel to a prostitute, which is a huge huge loser. Even if you only do it once.

His big mistake. And more than just costing us pubic opinion on the issue it is false.

All of you who want to call her a "whore" show me proof that she has entered into a commercial agreement werein she agrees to provide specific sexual favors to an individual or group of  individuals in exchange for something of value, or you are conflating whore to use it as a cheap insult. Which is not helpful.

Calling her a "slut" additionally is a matter of personal opinion and non-relevant to the actual issue at hand.

Rush Limbaugh gets higher ratings and more money if Obama is reelected.

 

That being said, I agree with him 1000%.  This Fluke bitch wanted the spotlight, well she gets what comes with it now.  And nothing beats an aggrieved feminist for sheer hilarity.    It's just too bad she won't have the balls to face a real conservative interviewer who would ask her just what Rush said that was wrong. 

 

And BTW, everyone should read the JWF article linked in the sidebar.  This woman is 30 years old, a professional student and professional feminist.  She is getting EXACTLY what she deserves.

One more thing - until Ms. Fluke has popped out AT LEAST 3 of her own spawn, as far as I'm concerned she hasn't contributed her "fair share" to society.

 

All of these social programs that she is such a champion of aren't free - they are paid for with taxpayer dollars.

 

And those taxpayers don't just magically appear - they have to be MADE.

 

It takes roughly 20 years before those spawn can become taxpayers, so she and her birth-control-loving buddies had better get to work.

 

I'm not getting any younger.....

240 Drew,

I'm sorry, but you are pathetic. In the wake of Andrew Breibart's death you do exactly what he dedicated his life to fighting. Instead of making a principled argument for or against what Limbaugh actually said, you accept the liberal spin and attack our own side.

When will the right figure out the accepting the left's framing of issues is a no-win proposition. Good lord, Drew, grow a set of balls.

Posted by: jwest at March 02, 2012 01:35 PM (FdndL)

 

Drew isn't accepting the liberal spin. He's criticising the willingness of some on the right to allow the Left to sidetrack us into social issues in an election year where everything hinges on making Obama's reelection a referendum on his dismal record. In one of Breitbart's last conversations, he related his frustrations at the success of the liberal media to reframe the issues  and steer the national conversation so that we're talking about contraceptives and not about substantive economic issues--which the Left emphatically cannot afford to talk about. In order to generate controversy and garner advertising dollars, Limbaugh feeds into it deliberately.

Don't you see? The Left wants a culture war this election year. They want to talk about anything but the disastrous impact their policies are making on the economy and on our standing in world affairs. So of course the Left prefers a Santorum candidacy. Of course the Left wants to talk about free contraceptives for everybody.

Lastly, Rush Limbaugh is a billion-dollar entertainer whose schtick happens to be politics. I don't think much of the man but know there are many out there who admire and respect him. Okay, you admire and respect him for what, exactly? Limbaugh preaches to the choir on a daily basis and is paid handsomely for doing it. Good for him. But as a serious, persuasive voice in the conservative movement? Please. Telling someone what they want to hear is no hard trick. Getting undecided or even hostile people to come over to your side by force of ideas and power of logic, on the other hand, is the most difficult trick of all, and that isn't what he does. Screw Rush Limbaugh.

We continue to operate under the premise that any time there is a discussion about sex, the left is winning.  That is not the case.  Regardless of whether you agree with what Rush said, his reasons for saying it, or whether it serves any strategic purpose, he has been able to expand the discussion from religious liberties to why are law school students pleading poverty and asking us to buy their birth control.  This is a winning issue for the right.  We should recognize that.  No one on the right is asking for contraceptions to be banned.  Yes, that is what the left is saying, but that message is not getting through.  Its one thing to say that Obama is spending freely and expanding his power beyond belief.  It is another to have such a topical example that grabs peoples interest.  Let the left make Sandra Fluke their posterchild for this issue.  She looks like a fool.  I just hope we have a candidate who is willing to ask Obama, why the federal government should ask the taxpayers to pay for the sexual activities of others.

Let's not forget that there's a portion of the electorate out there who listen to Rush but need metaphors that they can understand to be able to really digest his meaning.   These are the people who would say, "Gosh, it really isn't fair for catholic institutions not to pay for birth control for their employees."   Then along comes Rush and lays it out for them:  "We're paying for this girl to have sex.   Women who get paid for sex are whores.       Why are these places being asked to pay for a whore's lifestyle?"  

 

 

Believe it or not, that WILL resonate with people.

We literally have propaganda as our news in this country. My inner pessimist doesn't see that changing, and sees Obama basically able to piss on the country and have the media cover for him. So what's the use?

Speaking of "dimes".  HotAir has a link to HHS chieftress Sebeleius' stunning remarks yesterday LINK:  preview.tinyurl.com/89zbt6h      So "free sex" merges with economic liberty, to wit:

Excerpt:

"Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius told a House panel Thursday that a reduction in the number of human beings born in the United States will compensate employers and insurers for the cost of complying with  the new HHS mandate that will require all health-care plans to cover sterilizations and all FDA-approved contraceptives, including those that cause abortions."

I've ended up listening to Rush a lot more in the last few weeks than I have in the last 4 years, and I haven't been all that impressed.

He's gotten to be rather blowhardy and seems to spend most of his show congratulating himself and repeating the same things over and over. And he seems to make arguments for conservatism primary by repeated assertion rather than with logic and evidence. And a lot of times I think he merely flatters his audience instead of addressing tough subjects.

Maybe it's me who's changed but I think today's Rush is not the same as the Rush of yore.

Limbaugh has bigger audience numbers when there's a liberal in the White House. He's an entertainer, essentially, with his own agenda. Never forget that.

As I said yesterday, it's insane to be actively collaborating with the liberals in their determined attempts to change the subject away from King Putt's economic ineptitude.

The liberals won in '92 on a simple message:

"IT'S THE ECONOMY, STUPID!"

The absolutely identical message has to be seized upon by the right for this year. If we are crazy enough to run on this contraception business, we deserve our loss.

@243 - the left wants a culture war, let's give it to them.  The right wins on culture war issues.  Gun control was a culture war issue.  The right destroyed the left on that.  We should make the economic case for conservative policies and removing Obama, but we should not run away from social issues, when there is little proof that they are losing issues, and lots of proof they are winning isssues.  This contraception issue perfectly ties both together.  It perfectly illusrates the expansive power of the federal government through Obamacare, with the silly social idea that the taxpayers should pay for contraceptions.

No, he's maligning the idea that she wants other people to pay for her habits, which would not be discussed all over the country had she not sat down in front of a Congressional committee and demanded that Congress rape our wallets to cover the bill.  There's no point in getting squishy over the fact that the media lies about it, because that's what the media does.  A big reason why they get away with these narratives is because we throw our hands up and run away screaming when they start to do it, out of some misguided idea that we can get them to somehow not lie.

The way this issue was offered up; The Catholic Church should be forced to pay for Contraception which they morally object to for religious reasons, was a guaranteed WIN! for our side; until we mangled it into

"Woman who have sex are BAD people"


Know the issue. The Church doesn't care if it's a woman, a man, a pill, a condom, married, or un-married, twice a day, or once a year, they oppose using artificial contraception. The sexual habits of any particular woman is immaterial to that stance, and her personal choice and responsibility.

Yet we voluntarily take that win, and mutate it into an argument we can't win.

Been a little behind in this issue, but hereÂ’s what I gather:

So a 23-year-old “co-ed” — errrrrr, 30-year-old liberal activist — knew of Georgetown’s policy rejecting socialized contraception (making the rest of the student body of the Catholic school pay — through higher student fees — for her birth-control, which is against the Catholic doctrine). Rather than simply going to another school, she set about undermining Georgetown so that it conformed to her sensibilities and benefited her pocketbook.

So when the Democrats sought to expand the scope of her intolerance of Catholic doctrine to the entire federal government, she became their poster child — errrrrrr, 30-year-old woman — as someone who can afford to go to Georgetown Law and live in Washington (and probably have an iPhone and a iPad2 with unlimited data plans and fabulous clothes and shoes) but cannot afford the thousands and thousands of dollars of (presumably gold-plated) birth-control pills she desires.

All so the media can run with: Republicans Hate Women! again?

Hmmm. Well, IÂ’ll give them this: IÂ’m pretty sure I would hate this freeloading rabble-rouser Fluke.

.

Nah, Maetenloch....it's not just you. .....Rush has mellowed and changed gradually over the years.

.

I remember back in the early 90's, when he was doing edgy stuff like "America Held Hostage!" [by the Clintons] .....and he would do a daily count of how many days of "Occupation" that the white house had been held. ....That was when he had that tv show + his radio show.

.

It's like Rush tempers himself now, and stretches out each thing to fill up more airtime over more days.

.

But it's not necessarily a bad thing.....Rush still performs a valuable service for us all, imo. .....There are younger, edge-ier, folks out there to throw the hand grenades now.

265,

 

This issue has absolutely everything to do with the economic and personal liberty messages, and there's no reason in the world not to combine them.  It goes a little something like this:

"Why, in a time of spiking gas prices and high unemployment, is the SCOAMF and other elected members of his party entertaining the idea of forcing taxpayers to subsidize the private lives of others who are unwilling to pay for their own choices?" 

"Why are they entertaining the pet cause of a dipshit feminist activist when there is so much more that is worthy of the government's time?"

Change the wording up, and there's your message.

293 For a liberal, any criticism is "censorship." "Free speech" to a liberal means lack of opposition. There is no rational way in which criticism of this woman is "silencing" her. It's a correction. Her facts are wrong. Her demands are misleading. But instead of "correcting the correction," proving her "facts" are correct and her demand for subsidy is reasonable, she cries "censorship!" Because she's a liberal. And they lie about everything.

294 This has probably been mentioned at some point in the Moron Express, but a fluke is a parasitic tapeworm; a flatworm like Dear Leader is thought to have obtained eating raw things in Hawaii.

In my professional opinion, and remembering the word from zoology or some other ology class, the difference in Ms Fluke not being a tapeworm is this:

"Flukes (trematoda) have a gut with a mouth on one end and an anus on the other."

At any rate, when I heard her name I thought of a parasite and see she is very close to the mark.

300 If only the GOP was capable of re-framing issues like this... SCOAMF and his minions are worthless cretins, but credit where it's due- they can spin the hell out of things and are spectacular at getting their MFM bitches to jump. Wouldn't it be nice if there were a principled conservative out there who was capable of combating the ignorance and stupidity of the left with actual facts presented in a reasoned and headline grabbing way? Alas... this person died yesterday. So I guess we're stuck with Boehner compromising 'for the greater good', Romney avoiding "setting his hair on fire" in favor of 69 point plans that are devoid of substance, moral 'I told you so's" from Santorum, and Newt digging into moon base dumpsters in order to find more banana peels to fling at opponents and try to paper over his own failings. This is a simple issue: 1. NO ONE is trying to ban birth control 2. There is no healthcare/ lifestyle related product more affordable & accessible than contraceptive medications and products- show me ONE person in the US that cannot get some for of birth control for free or affordably and anything more readily accessible to anyone in any age group. 3. What I earned/ produce is mine- regardless of my income level. It is also my choice about what I do with what is mine, regardless of income level. If I make a dollar from pan-handling, I can by a shot of Val-U-Rite, a condom, or something off the McD's dollar menu. I can choose to give my dollar to someone hungrier than me IF I WANT TO. I can choose to save the dollar to invest and pair it with more labor and dollars to product greater value. If you take my dollar it's theft. If you tell me what to do with my dollar, it's tyranny. If you force me to buy something for someone else, in spite of my needs or wants, it's cause for revolution. 4. The ONLY people talking about limiting choice or accessibility of anything (that cannot be viewed as murder) are Obama and his ilk. 5. The cost of everyone's free shit is ultimately borne by those who can least afford it. 6. Before anyone give advice on what anyone else should invest in, they must show a verifiable track record of sound prior investments, made with their own money 7. Prior to representing anyone in government, it is necessary that you have proven that you can support yourself through your own labor. (i.e., no more people in elected office who have never had a full time job)

THIS.  A thousand times this!   There's no reason why every single so-called "social" argument that keeps being raised by the left    during this election cycle CAN'T be turned back to    the economy.

 

Catholic institutions paying for contraception:   This is a clear violation of the first amendment in that it abridges a religion's right to free exercise.   This will lead to the inevitable closure of many Catholic instituions, including hospitals, nursing homes, and charity organizations.  This in turn will put an even greater strain on public institutions, which will require exorbitant tax hikes to pay for the added demand.

 

Taxpayers paying for contraception:   If there is enough money in the coffers to pay for this woman's $1,000 per annum contraceptive costs, why are we slicing the military's health coverage to shreds and     laying off        many of our fighting men and women       into      a world of high     unemployment?

 

Taxpayer-funded abortion:  See the arguments above.

 

These messages are not difficult to fit into the left's framing of the conversation.   But you HAVE to be willing to take that frame, turn it on its side and show the world the WHOLE picture.

355 We should be thankful that the left has decided to show us the folly of Obamacare using contraceptions instead of something like breast exams.  Everyone is for breast exams and most people probably think that insurance companies should pay for them (and they probably do).  The economic argument against mandating both is the exact same - we should let the market dictate what should be covered.  But most people would be in favor of paying for breast exams.  Most people are not in favor of paying for other people to have sex.

Besides, she appears to be a liar (she's 30, NOT 23) and she enrolled at Georgetown Law with the express purpose of combating the evil of not having contraception covered in the school's student insurance policy. Prior to her enrolling there, she was trolling the liberal/progressive waters as some sort of activist. I'm just wondering who among the super brains at that law school allowed her to get into the place.

Know what I say:  "Bring it, girl." There are plenty of people and groups willing to get down in the mud and roll around with the pig, metaphorically speaking, and will probably even like getting covered in mud while doing so. Sandra Fluke, you're just a fluke (of nature, that is).

Oh my goodness, sweetie!  I wasn't saying that to imply that someone who doesn't have kids is somehow not paying their fair share - I meant that if Ms. Fluke wants ME to pay for HER choices, then she needs to understand that SHE might find herself required to pay for MY choices.

 

If she doesn't want me getting into her business, then she better just GTFO of my business.

 

And Ms. Fluke strikes me as one of those OWS types who is always bleating about how "the rich" aren't paying "their fair share".  I'm just letting her know that HER fair share - since she is so gung-ho for all of these "free" services that are being provided - is to pop out a couple of future people to pay for all of the goodies that she thinks are her "right".

I call bullshit on that one, as does everyone else with more than six living brain cells.  Two people can't afford $9/month to prevent a pregnancy? $4.50 apiece per month? Taking a sandwich instead of picking up a McD's combo once a month.  TO PREVENT A PREGNANCY.  And the wife made it into Georgetown law school?  Not a glittering recommendation for that program, is it?

Fluke, a birth control activist, spoke with TODAYÂ’s Matt Lauer about LimbaughÂ’s comments and the failure of a GOP-sponsored amendment that would have allowed employers at religious institutions to opt out of providing contraception in health plans.

Fluke told Lauer that she expected some backlash, especially from someone like Limbaugh. Still, the comments stung — especially since they were made on the first day of Women’s History Month.

If we just knew an influential blogger who could feed and coordinate the conservativeÂ’s outrage at the Annie George story.  That would be good.

 

HereÂ’s how it might lookÂ…

 

Annie George, contributor to the liberal activist group “EmilyÂ’s List”, is facing criminal charges for forcing a servant to live in a closet for 6 years in her 30,000 square foot mansion.  Although EmilyÂ’s List has taken positions on womenÂ’s pay in fundraising literature, the servant was paid approximately 85 cents per hour.

 

Officials of EmilyÂ’s List have been silent on this incident and local law enforcement has not released any indication of how many of the organizationÂ’s members knew of or approved of Ms. George keeping an indentured servant in a closet.  It is unclear at this time if EmilyÂ’s List contributors regularly use slave labor, however, until the organization officially condemns the action it remains unknown if the liberal group opposes the practice.

Heh.  I said "bottom", heh-heh.

$1000 a year in contraceptives.

Here's an idea: let's make contraception mandatory. Then you will have fewer women living in poverty, and fewer children living in poverty. And if you want a kid, you have to apply for a license.

I put that in the "win win win" category. And it gives Teh Won more power.

423 "$1000 a year in contraceptives." She was talking about the pill and I believe the pill has a flat annual rate and costs the same whether you have sex once or a hundred times. Not that it matters. My point was that I am unsupportive of her, not because she wants birth control, but rather because she wants others to pay for it.

424 Remembering a bit of Bio 2...Flukes and Leeches are both parasitic worms with strong sucking mouths. They differ primarily in the fact that Flukes live INSIDE the host and in fact few can survive outside of a host body. Leeches feed on a particular host then drop away, while Flukes cannot survive with out attachment.Flukes are also flatter, rounder, more ovoid in body structure.
 In this case Georgetown in particular and Colleges in general appear to be the target hosts.

Wow, OK, I totally screwed that one up. Didn't even look at the byline.

426 Our choices are: 1) Frame the issue properly ensuring it's religious freedom/not having to pay for someone's birth control/etc. vs. 2) frame it the Rush way. Option 1 results in crickets and option 2 results an MSM spin frenzy that threatens to destroy our cause.

We're so fucked.

This is like a Superbowl where you KNOW the refs have been paid off by your opposition. You're just waiting for the pass interference flags to be thrown.

428 Right, Limbaugh isn't running for president, so why is everyone butthurt over this? This whole contraceptive bullshit isn't going to work with Mitt Romney as the nominee (anyone notice that nobody is talking about OWS anymore?)

430 Contraception or abortion my ass! This election ought to be about entitlement reform. Ms. Fluke is all about yet another entitlement, for being a 'slut.' The passing of six decades has not redefined the term. Here's an idea for Ms. Fluke to reduce the cost of sex. Insist that your male partners bring a rubber, at least half of the time. If I'm going to pay for it I want to participate, or maybe not.

431 This was all planned a long time ago. The Left choreographed this whole thing in order to get certain people to respond. And here right on cue is Rush Limbaugh. Now here's your part in the Left's plan: You're supposed to bite your nails and alienate Rush Limbaugh. Will you play your part? Some of you will, yes. Posted by: soothsayer at March 02, 2012 01:25 PM Bingo. Divide and conquer. All the self-righteous whining from so-called conservative blogs about Rush Limbaugh "falling for the Left's trap" is hilarious irony, considering those same bloggers have fallen for the Left's trap of going after those on our own side. Pathetic. Breitbart has been gone 1 day and his message of everyone sticking together and focusing on Obama as the enemy -- and NOT people on our own side such as Rush Limbaugh -- is already gone. Again, pathetic. 8 more months of our side shooting our own. Brilliant...

432 This is the kind of shit that makes us lose everything. We denounce our own side when the left would be going to the mattresses. Posted by: Bevel Lemelisk at March 02, 2012 01:31 PM This. It's getting pretty fucking annoying that whenever our side is hitting Obama on something, others on our side throw those people under the bus, because they're not hitting Obama in the way that they say he should be hit. Again, wasn't Breitbart's message to join together? For a site that claims to be a big fan of Breitbart, it sure isn't following his message. So much for taking up his sword...

Posted by: Clyde Shelton at March 02, 2012 07:45 PM (vUK/h)

433 Did any of you even listen to Andrew Breitbart's CPAC speech? Posted by: soothsayer at March 02, 2012 01:32 PM I'm sure most did. The question is did any of them understand it. From this post and many of the anti-Rush comments, it's pretty clear the answer is 'no'.

Posted by: Clyde Shelton at March 02, 2012 07:48 PM (vUK/h)

434 So lemme get this straight, this WHORE, whines in front of congress wanting tax payers to pay for her wanton ways, Rush pontificates about it, and it's somehow his fault that she's in the news? I've seen some seriously stupid anti-Rush nonsense posted here, this takes the fucking cake. Posted by: Unclefacts Out Of Commenting Retirement Just For This One Thing at March 02, 2012 01:38 PM Yep. This apparently was the legacy left by Andrew Breitbart: "When the Left deliberately lies, and the leaders on the Right call them out on their lies, throw the leaders on the Right under the bus!" Brilliant. It really is sad to read people whining about Rush going off message. Rush is attacking Obama, these people are attacking Rush. It's pretty damn obvious who's off message here...

Posted by: Clyde Shelton at March 02, 2012 08:06 PM (vUK/h)

435 Oh, I heard about her before she was mentioned by Rush. In fact ABC carried on radio and tv ALL fucking day the day she wanted to "testify" in front of a congressional hearing for religious leaders on freedom of religion. The house wouldn't "LET HER" because it was a trained seal thing and she wasn't a religious leader. The orginal hearing happened to be all male so the Pelosi meme was that they were having a hearing on birth control and they wouldn't let a WOMAN talk. LEFTY LEFTY BLAH BLAH Couple of days later Pelosi has her own PRETEND hearings where she has this slut show up and whine about "womens health" and the high price of fucking. Couple of days later Rush says why do we have to pay for this slut's condoms? All hell breaks loose IT WAS PELOSI NOT RUSH AND ABC. head pounding Posted by: dagny loved andrew at March 02, 2012 01:47 PM Ah, facts. Such inconvenient things when there's a Rush-hating agenda! Let's not focus on the facts here, let's focus on attacking Rush Limbaugh, because that's what is going to win us this election! Apparently when people read that we should take up Andrew Breitbart's sword, they felt the best way to use it was to stab Rush in the back. Brilliant!

Posted by: Clyde Shelton at March 02, 2012 08:40 PM (vUK/h)

436 Rush *is* pitching this as "she's an Obama patsy assisting in his unprecidented power grab". That, first and foremost, is the point he keeps making about this. Posted by: Ian S. at March 02, 2012 01:49 PM Yep. If people bothered to actually listen to Rush, they'd know this. But that's apparently too difficult to do. Much easier to just hate on Rush and blame him for all the problems we're having in this country.

First Fluke desires free contraception but the deeper we dig she desires that we all pay for sex change operations so people change their plumbing.

439 What a left-wing slut whore. Why should I_have_to_pay_for_anyone_elses_birth_controls? We are heading for a complete socialist clusterfuck in this country and nobody with any authority is trying to put on the brakes. Sarah Palin tried, but failed, Rick Perry was the best hope after her. Maybe Rick Santorum will shape up but God help us if Romney gets it, he's just White Barack HUSSEIN Obama after all. Oh, also, Sandra Fluke is a kike lover - her boyfriend is one of those hook-nosed devils, rich off other people's money already and looking to tax the rest of us to protect their unholy couplings from the risk of an "inconvenient disease" (pregnancy).
