Fluke the Welfare Queen
American Spectator ^ | March 12, 2012 | Jed Babbin

Posted on 03/13/2012 3:52:45 AM PDT by Zakeet

Now that the media feeding frenzy has calmed at least for a bit, it's worth saying that we've missed the whole point on Mizz Sandra Fluke. Fluke is the Georgetown Law School student who testified against the religious right of her school to refuse to pay for contraception because to do so would violate its religious principles.

It's titillating -- but irrelevant -- to speculate about Fluke's sexually promiscuity. To try to characterize her as Rush Limbaugh did could be accurate but isn't connected to the political issue at hand.

Sandra Fluke is a welfare queen. Remember, back in the 1980s, the image of the welfare queen? It was a caricature of a woman on welfare who had borne many children for men who she knew little or not at all. The welfare queen made an industry of producing children because she knew the state would pay her to do so, and pay for her children's needs from food to clothes to medical care.

Sandra Fluke is the model Welfare Queen for the 21st Century.

[Snip]

Welfare Queen Fluke will never produce anything of value to society. She will fit easily into the industry of regulation, bigger government, and reduced personal freedoms. She believes everything she wants -- birth control, abortion, whatever -- is an entitlement for which the government must pay. The welfare queens of the 1980s were small-timers. Welfare Queen Fluke and her ilk are an existential threat to fiscal responsibility. Just think about how many thousands of them are graduating this year to enter government jobs or political campaigns. They will be spreading their ideas to all within hearing.

She DIDN”T testify ‘before’ anyone!!! It was a staged press conference by the Communists to resemble a Cong. Hearing. And she isn’t just some ugly butt law student. She’s a Communist sex toy for the media to play with. And she is a WHORE who lied about HER need for $$$$$.

I dont understand how ‘Fluke’ is pronounced Fluck

Fluke

Fluke

Fluck

Fluke 1.Unlikely chance occurrence, esp. a surprising piece of luck: "the law student begging for government paid contraceptives, before congress, was no fluke...it was right in line with the Marxist imperative"...

I look at it this way, without the “L” you know how the word is pronounced, so adding the “L” shouldn’t change things.

Actually if English was a real language, fluke as in fish fin should be spelled flewk, no?

No.

It’s spelled ‘Fluke’ because English is a real language with centuries of history, not a made-up phonetic jumble crapped out by a denatured school system.

“And she isn’t just some ugly butt law student.”

The expression is butt-ugly.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

The old path to welfare-drop out of high school
The new path to welfare- get a women’s or gender studies degree from an Ivy League university

“I dont understand how ‘Fluke’ is pronounced Fluck”

I heard on TV it was supposed to be pronounced to rhyme with look.

Liver Fluke!...the part indentification speaks volumes most parts seem to be for sexual organs/gratification

What an outstanding spot-on piece.

Like most students at elite colleges, she is upper-middle and no doubt getting food stamps while she reports some measly stipend on her Student Aid forms. Meanwhile Mommy and Daddy slip her cash under the table.
