Elizabeth Harris, a UIC junior, could not afford the cost of birth control and is now pregnant.

And maybe picking on one young woman who says some stupid things for public consumption isn’t fair...

Nope...picking on people for public stupidity is not only fair, but should be encouraged. Let's keep it in perspective, however...she's a college student.

Condoms cost, what, fifty cents each?

I believe that the article stated that they're free at this college.

Having gone off birth control, Harris found she was pregnant.

BAM! It was like magic!! How did it happen!?

Here, let me fix this...

BAM! BANG! It was like magic!! How did it happen!?

Creeping socialism is a thief - stealing our better angels.

Yes, the passive voice there triggers my non-redeemed self.

Boy, doesn’t that beat all. Bush lied to us, got us into an unnecessary war and now he got a 20-year-old pregnant and denied her the entitlement of drinking mai tais on a tropical beach.

Wait, I've got one even better: Bush is being blamed by a whiny tramp; therefore everything he does is A-OK!

[Beckwith]

I sympathize — she should have followed Bill Clinton’s example and stuck to oral sex — although, according to Slick Willy, oral sex isn’t sex?

[ClaireSolt]

How many years of sex ed do you suppose she had?

[gogeo]

It’s all about entitlement.

[shekkian]

Was this an immaculate conception, or something? I don’t see this tramp taking responsibility for her own decision to have sex.

[Lurker]

picking on people for public stupidity is not only fair, but should be encouraged.

"Stupid" is supposed to hurt. Trouble is these days it doesn't hurt nearly enough.

She has a mind? Is any part of her brain functioning?

Apparently one part. She is knocked up, after all.

[StarCMC]

Last spring, 20-year-old pre-med student Elizabeth Harris had only Costa Rica on her mind.

Obviously she had more on her mind than Costa Rica. LOL!

[MrB]

Leftists have rather won that battle with the youth of America -

the “given” in this case is that she was going to have sex without discretion, and the cause of the pregnancy was her inability to buy birthcontrol because she wanted to have the money for her vacation.

We need to call kids on it whenever they state things in a manner that takes the focus off of their own responsibility.

[GladesGuru]

Most disturbing of all is that a meddie with such an obvious lack of judgement may well become a physician.

You know, one of those people whose decisions really do impact other people’s lives.

There was once a time when such slutty and irresponsible behavior resulted in removal from medical school.

In the UK, the story would have been that she "fell pregnant". There are a whole lot of clumsy gals in that part of the world.

Let's hope that that she never returns to her medical studies. This one has Hillary Care written all over her.
