Sandra Fluke: ‘Numerous’ Women Said I Should Run For Office, ‘Maybe Someday I Will’
Mediaite ^ | March 21, 2012 | Meenal Vamburkar

The controversy with Rush Limbaugh gave Sandra Fluke instant name recognition in the world of media and politics. So it was only a matter of time before someone asked her about running for office. Fluke said for now she is focused on law school, but that “maybe someday” she’ll consider the idea.

At a panel about women’s history, Fluke said: “Numerous American women have actually written to me in the last few weeks to say that I should run for office [...] And maybe someday I will. But for now, I actually have to finish law school.”

Not a yes, but also not a denial. Elaborating on the topic of women in politics, she added:

“What I want to say to women of my generation is that we need more Debbie Wasserman Schultzes, more Senator Gillibrands. We need more working mothers in office who understand the issues of family and family planning.

[...]

“We can’t pretend that women’s representation in elected office is unconnected from our policies on family planning. [...] Because not only do women bring a particular perspective to the table when we discuss family planning, but our policies on family planning allow women to be at that table.”

I believe Sandra Fluke is an Obama Plant!!..... She does not need Birth Control because she is an active member & Past President of LGBTQ (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgendered Questioning)

She is pushing for the University to pay for ....”SEX CHANGE OPERATIONS”.... in there medical coverage

Fluke’s years of liberal activism. Add her ties to the..... LGBTQ...... and her efforts to :

force schools to pay for “Sex Change Operations”.

Sandra Fluke — Liberal Lesbian Activist on a Secret Mission ...

Consider also the little matter of Fluke’s efforts on behalf of the activist group called:

Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgendered Questioning.

Review — titled Employment Discrimination Against LGBTQ Persons.

“A prime example of direct discrimination,....” the “gender law” ...article claims

“is denying insurance coverage for medical needs of ....transgender persons....... physically transitioning to the other gender.”

It would be so much fun to be run as her rival. If I couldn’t be her rival, I would just take personally pleasure destroying her entire campaign in whatever she is running for.

I think “math day” is always on the same day as “ethics day” and somehow most lawyers I’ve met managed to all be sick on that day...

PLEASE, PLEASE! Tell her to run against Debbie W. Schultz in the DEM primary! She certainly will get the support of the DEM party, Obama and the MSM!
