The contraception controversy erupted in Washington today over a spate of inflammatory remarks from conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh.
Everyone from House Speaker John Boehner and President Barack Obama to the President of Georgetown University has been drawn into the fray.
The uproar is centered around Sandra Fluke, a third-year Georgetown University law school student who was barred from testifying at a recent Congressional hearing on the Obama administration's policy requiring religiously-affiliated institutions to provide contraception in employee health plans.
Fluke eventually testified before a House Democratic panel, telling a sad story about a female friend who lost an ovary because Georgetown's student insurance would not cover the birth control she needed to treat a medical condition.
Her testimony sparked the ire of Rush Limbaugh, who accused Fluke of being a "slut" and a "prostitute" who is "having so much sex she's going broke."

I think I’m going to boycott Fox after this...I just listed to two twits, one from the christin Science Monitor and another no name on Bret Baier’s rountable (one of the few segments I stil watch, up until today) condemn the Limbaugh remarks. AS IF...no mention of the vulgar and vitriolic rhetoric that comes daily from the Left. I am so sick of the doube standard..and kudos to Rush for calling a spade a spade. Gloves off this time, kids, I have had it.
They did run a clip of Rush asking why they weren’t outraged when they called Sarah Palin a “c” word.
I'd intended to comment, but words are failing me here.
She knows a woman who didn't seek help after being raped because she "thought" the medical exam might not be free!
Okay. I visited a bunch of sites today. Lib sites. They claim she was talking about a lesbo friend of hers who couldn’t get birth control meds. However, and here is my question; a doc prescribed birth control pills to this “female” for the prevention of ovarian cysts. Is it true that an insurance company wouldn’t pay for the “medicine” she needed? It was for treating a medical condition, having nothing to do with birth prevention.
If a person can't afford to have sex the way they want to have it, it's their human right to have someone else pay for their sex. It's only fair...
Those who don't have sex when they want to have sex because of financial concerns just aren't exercising their God given rights given to us under the Constitution.
I don’t believe the “friend who lost an ovary” story for one minute. Oral contraceptives can be prescribed as treatment for any number of medical situations, in which case they are covered as medically necessary, even when plans do not pay for ELECTIVE CONTRACEPTION.
'Nuf said?
So I have to pay for the worlds' bc pills because one woman was stupidly mistaken about the parameters of her insurance?
In other words, she's an ignorant brainwashed slut.
What do you get a job doing with a degree like that. Oh, the ranch in Nevada. She can run the personal department.
Feminazi Prep School
I don’t know much about these sorts of thing, but why would a “lesbo” friend need birth control?
There was a kinder, gentler time when gentlemen didn’t refer to women like this as “sluts”.
They simply referred to them as The Town Pump.
I suppose we should be grateful that Fluke and her ilk aren’t demanding that we pay for their rum and coke to get in the mood and a supply of K-Y Jelly to ease things along if a particularly well-hung customer presents himself.
Man, this really got Brian Terry off the front page...Which one is more important..Terry or Fluke?????????????Our country in decay.....
I would rather not meet the slut.
Memo. If somehow Sandra Fluke graduates and becomes a lawyer do not hire her. She has displayed a large amount of ineptitude in not being able to obtain birth control products which cost less per day than the triple venti vanilla mocha lattes she sucks down, not to mention the margaritas, vodkas, and jello shots she absorbs on the weekends.
