Congress held a lengthy hearing Thursday morning on the health reform law’s mandated coverage of contraceptives, probing whether the provision violates religious liberties.
The hearing has gotten a lot of attention not necessarily for what happened there, but what didn’t. Namely, no one testified in favor of the contraceptives mandate. Moreover, no women participated in the first, three-hour panel (two women did testify against the provision in the second panel.)
The Democrats did, however, invite one woman to speak: Sandra Fluke, a third-year student at Georgetown Law and past president of the school’s Students for Reproductive Justice group. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), who chaired the hearing, said the minority party had submitted her name too late to be considered (Democrats contest this). I caught her outside the hearing room, and we spoke about what she would have told the committee......

Sandra Fluke was brought in by Democrats to stop any conversation on Obama’s failures and his marxist mandate to force private HC insurers to pay for free contraception.
(Imagine the shock to dems when she could not testify? Pelosi created her own little hearing when in the past Pelosi and democrats have refused anyone from speaking that opposed them when they controlled congress)
I truly believe Fluke will never need contraceptives. Never has used any either.
The goal is the end of private hc insurance. HC insurers will go bankrupt after Sebelius and Obama are done with their free entitlements to losers like Fluke.
Democrats socialized HC will finally come to fruition.
What? I’m shocked /s
Well, what about offering free rubbers and pills to liberals. And maybe we can give them free tube tyings and the like.
That way we can stop the spread of the mental illness known as liberalism in one generation.
Thats a plan Ole Maggie Sanger would be proud of and the irony would be over the top.
Well stated and I agree.
Fluke is concerned about having her habit paid for by others. The University President should have told her “Abstinance is free”.
