Obama takes Fluke on “war on women” road show; releases yet another pro-Planned Parenthood ad

An ABC headline today reports, “Obama to Stoke ‘War on Women’ Debate in Colorado,” confirming the president’s “return to the gender politics of earlier in the cycle,” as reported by Politico a few days ago.

Obama is upping the ante, taking Georgetown Law School grad Sandra Fluke on the road with him on a two-day campaign trek through Colorado. Rush Limbaugh infamously called (then retracted) Fluke a “slut” for testifying in Congress she thought she should get free contraceptive through her Catholic university’s insurance plan.

Obama also continues to further tie himself to Planned Parenthood. In addition to a television ad released over the weekend touting the United States’ largest abortion chain, the Obama campaign released a web ad yesterday, discussed here. This ad marked Obama’s fourth pitch for Planned Parenthood, free contraceptives, and “family planning services” in a month. (Also see “Troubled” and “Women’s Choices”.)

It is fascinating to watch Obama promote Planned Parenthood to the extent that he is. He could certainly push the pro-contraception/abortion agenda without mentioning the abortion giant.

I go back to the fact that Planned Parenthood must be scoring well in his internal polls.

Or it could be that Planned Parenthood isn’t scoring so well in the polls, and Obama needs to raise its favorables so any advertising it does on his behalf gets a better response. Synergy.

Trying to put fear in democrat women that us evil republicans are gonna take away their precious abortion “rights”.

Most of these women would not need abortions if they just went to their local health department and asked for the pill/condoms/whatever there. I know every county in my state gives away free birth control. They can’t give away enough condoms because of the ever threat of AIDS and other STD’s.

The thing with the “slut walk” is they are protesting rape.

I know a lot of you are gonna hate me for this but I do agree with them.

I did a paper on rape in college and this was before I read a brilliant book by John Douglas called “Obsession”.

John is a former FBI criminal profiler. He expand upon the type of rapists profiled and what their causes where.

If you don’t believe my term paper at least believe someone who was an FBI agent. A woman’s clothing has nothing to do with why she is raped. It is all in the sick mind of the rapist. Consider this a man will rape a 60 year old bag lady who is wearing all the clothing she owns or a 4 year old girl wearing only training pants and sleepers. It does not matter what a woman is wearing why she is raped has to do with several things.

One she was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Two she was “singled out” as a victim. Like the women Ted Bundy raped then later killed. The victims fit a certain fantasy or object of the rapist anger.

Most of all however the rapist saw in the victim someone who is weak, that he could overpower. Often a way the lion hunts in the jungle is how a rapist searches for his prey. Look for the most vulnerable in the pack, single her out and go for the kill.

Consider also that women wearing Hijabs or Niqabs in the middle east are raped. Rape is not an act of passion or lust it is an act of anger.

With that said, I do wish they would choose a better name than “Slut walk”! I just can’t see Susan B. Anthony or Elizabeth Stanton walking in something with a name like that no matter how good the cause.

Been there done that with out the coffee.

Yes Fluke is a “slut walk” all her own. However even she does not “deserve” or is “asking” to be raped.

Yes often times prostitutes are raped (I mean real “ladies of the night” this time) and they are because the unsub is sure the police won’t believe them. Which often in the past was the case. Not only are they raped more often but the victim of a serial killer as the unsub feels and for the most part the prostitute is not be missed by society. You must take in consideration that prostitutes that do go “missing” are someone’s daughter, sister, mother, and someone does miss her.
