Sandra Fluke on MSNBC Ed Schultz Show defending Obamacare before Rush's comments
MSNBC ^ | 2/16/2012 | Ed Schultz/ Sandra Fluke

Posted on 03/09/2012 8:16:15 AM PST by sickoflibs

SCHULTZ: Joining me tonight is Sandra Fluke , the woman Congressman Darrell Issa rejected as a witness today. Ms. Fluke is a law student at Georgetown University . Great to have you with us tonight, Sandra . Now, I understand that you already planned your testimony. You were going to cite examples of people who could have benefited from President Obama ‘s mandate for birth control coverage. Share with us what you would have told that committee today.

SANDRA FLUKE, GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY LAW STUDENT: That is what I was there to speak to the committee about. That's why I was so stunned when Chairman Issa made the decision to not allow me to speak on behalf of those women and to say that I was not an appropriate witness, that those women ‘s stories were not appropriate for this committee . I cannot think of who would be more appropriate for the committee to hear from than the women affected by this policies whose lives were affected. One of the women I wanted to talk about today is a close friend of mine.

But unfortunately when university administrators and employers and insurance companies get involved in deciding whose health needs are legitimate and whose aren't, what happens is that women ‘s health needs take a back seat to that type of ideology.

Fluke jumped into the public political battle on MSNBC BEFORE Rush's comments. I am posting this because a few here are claiming she is a private figure only made public because of Rush.

Here's more from her on Obama-care from that interview:

"We have been following these regulations ever since the Affordable Care Act was passed. And it's a fight we've been having for years, literally decades students have been struggling for this. So, this makes such an incredible difference in our lives, in the lives of so many women . And so, when we hear the regulations announced, when we hear updates on this situation, these policies, there is such jubilation, celebration on campus. People are so excited. They know I'm involved in this issue and they come and ask me questions about it and they are so excited about it. And they are so grateful -- "

She’s become a laughing stock - setting women back at least 40 years.

I just posted this to put to bed the claims made here by some that Fluke can sue Rush as a private figure.

If Fluke is a private figure, then so is Palin.

I guess she wasn’t offended by Ed’s ‘Laura Ingram is a slut’ comment, less than a year ago.

“there is such jubilation, celebration on campus. People are so excited”

‘Comrades!’ cried an eager youthful voice. ‘Attention, comrades! We have glorious news for you. All over Amerika this morning there were irrepressible spontaneous demonstrations when workers marched out of factories and offices and paraded through the streets with banners voicing their gratitude to Big Bro’ for the new, happy life which his wise leadership has bestowed upon us!

Said Miss Fluke, on one of her larks:
“Sex is more fun in bed than in parks;
..You feel more at ease
..Your ass doesn’t freeze,
And passers-by don’t make remarks.”

What do you call a women who sleeps with numerous men and sells herself to the higest bidder.

Whatever name you choose her real name is Sandra Fluke the clueless moron.

I can see it now, SON “Mom I want to meet the woman I want to marry.

Mother, “You mean the tramp who says that she has sleep with so many men she can’t afford birth control protection without the government assisting her? Boy you can really pick the cream of the crop.”

the woman Congressman Darrell Issa rejected as a witness today.

Seems to me Ed the red, left out an important point. What’s new there?

Miss 30 year old law student was a last minute witness change.

..and so, with no time to vet, she was rejected.

So, she made herself a public figure, several times over. So if she is not a common slut (doubtful) then she certainly is a political slut of easy political virtue.

I posted this once and think I will do it again ...No wonder her friend was anonymous..I think she should bring this friend forward along with the doctors report..Let us know who is paying her for these lies..

What made me suspicious about this woman was this....

“anonymous “friend” who had suffered an ovarian cyst because she could not obtain the birth control pill from the Catholic university she attended”

I would say about 99% of the time, ovarian cysts are estrogen driven meaning....too much floating around and causing cysts......so using birth control made up of estrogen and a bit of progesterone....would have been something any KNOWLEDGEABLE MD would have said....um...no way should you be on it... (Although there are a few dumb asses out there that would have prescribed it......and then the woman would have ended up with a coujple operations before they ended up taking
all the works out. Have seen this more than enough times) Plus birth control heavily depletes folic acid...which helps make a baby....and consequently...get rid of extra estrogen....so you can see the issue here....

“In the middle of February, the House Oversight Committee held a hearing to hear expert testimony on Presidents Obama’s decision to force religious institutions to fund contraception for their employees. The hearing had actual experts on both sides of the issue but the meeting was about the Constitutional issue of freedom of religion, not so-called “reproductive rights”. Ms. Fluke’s inclusion as a speaker was denied because she was neither an expert on the Constitution, interested in religious freedom, nor is she an actual expert on the medical use of contraception. She was merely a left-wing activist with no pertinent expertise.” - Warner Houston March 3, 2012

RE :”msnbc? Didn’t know people still watch that station.

It has became the Activism channel for libs since Republicans took the House. They report and cheer lead all the Dem protests, marches, walkouts, boycotts and support and defend Obama 100%.

I watch it regularly because I found that Republicans regularly don't know what Dems are really up to, yet think they do.

These liberals are hypocritically, insanely stupid! It's like, "Well if America was dumb enough to elect Obama then..."

So, all this over Rush's comments and she won't accepts his apology, but yet doubles down on Schultz?

I think this is going to come back on liberals big time in the worst way!

Not only is Fluke a slut, Ed Schultz is a slut, he's been a slut for 0bama for years.

Q - Why does Ed Schultz lick 0bama's ass?

A - Because he can't help himself.

Ed Schultz Is A Slut!

Yep, I am a Lefty at heart. And, like most Lefties, as I rolled out of bed this morning to get ready for work, I was thinking...Gee, I really hope at least a part of the work I do today will go to pay for a communist hippy’s condoms. Knowing that makes it worth it to go to work.

That is the thing that makes going to work worthwhile, knowing that the jackasses in D.C. are spending my money wisely and are not just frittering it away on stupid and useless nonsense.

It is hard to imagine what America has become. A congress full of greedy worthless fools, and a population with the average IQ of a bovine. Oh well..C'est la vie...I guess
