(CHARLOTTE, N.C.) -- Democrats Wednesday unveiled a list of 10 new activists and politicians -- all women -- scheduled to speak at the party’s grand gathering in Charlotte, N.C., next month, while Republicans grapple with defiant Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin and questions about the party’s decision to renew a push in its convention platform for an abortion ban that makes no exception in cases of rape or incest.
Headlining the Democrats’ group is Georgetown Law grad Sandra Fluke, the woman Rush Limbaugh called a “slut” on his radio show in March after she testified before Congress about the strains facing her and other students denied contraception coverage by their school. Democrats seized on Limbaugh’s comments, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee launching a fundraising campaign decrying the “War on Women,” now a familiar phrase in the campaign season.
Fluke has since become an increasingly visible surrogate for President Obama, most recently introducing him at an Aug. 8 rally in Denver. She responded Tuesday to Akin’s comments about “legitimate rape” and pregnancy via an email relayed by the Obama campaign.
“This controversy is not an accident, or a mistake, or an isolated incident,” Fluke wrote. “It’s a reflection of a Republican Party whose policies are dangerous for women.”

Fluke is the new Sheehan.
There dumb.. Jobs data comes out that week and most likely will be terrible and the dems will talking about abortion? Really, this is their plan.
It appears that the RAT convention is going to be about condoms and abortions. How exciting. The Oh...Bah...Mah zombies will love it.
If this is the main issue they are pinning their hope on, they are going to be in big trouble.
They will go down hard, if that is the platform they run on, but then half the party is staying away.
A new Michael Moore movie, “Baby Killers on Parade.”
Some needs to ask her if Anita Brodrick was a “legitimate rape”
they need to bring up Kennedy in Florida and if it was “legitimate rape”

Dumb and depraved. Younger people are more and more skeptical of abortion, perhaps as the realization has struck them how easily they could have been destroyed.
..funny if she turns out to be a lezbo.
Followed by Ward Churchill, Jane Fonda, Cynthia McKinney, Michael Moore, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Bradley Manning, Alan Grayson, Angela Davis, Gnome Chomsky and Al Sharpton.
...the woman who couldn’t afford the pill at $9 a month who went on a European vacation after she testified....yeah,that woman.
“They will go down hard, if that is the platform they run on, but then half the party is staying away.”
I have a friend who keeps a foot in both Democrat and Republican camps, largely just out of intellectual curiosity. He says they are going to make it not only front and center, but celebratory. I guess this is what happens when one mixes cocaine and debauchery.

Just when her 15 minutes of fame were about up, guess Barry couldn’t stand to see her sink into oblivion.
whew,
thank goodness the Akin gaffe has passed into memory without any ramifications
