Thanks for the two links, Retain Mike.

I ask that you review them. You've claimed that "Ms. Fluke testified that 40% of the women in law school considered sexual intercourse a compelling or preferred recreational activity." It's not in either of those links, Mike.

It's not there.

It's not there because she never said that, Mike.

I don't know what your game is and what you're trying to do. You keep posting it, and I keep telling you she never said it. Please quit spreading confusion.

Du hast Recht. Fräulein Fluke ist eine Hexe, ja, und eine grosse Hündin, nicht wahr?

Ja, das ist wahr. Ich bin damit einverstanden!

The Washington Times transcript says:

“Without insurance coverage, contraception, as you know, can cost a woman over $3,000 during law school. For a lot of students who, like me, are on public interest scholarships, that’s practically an entire summer’s salary. 40% of the female students at Georgetown Law reported to us that they struggle financially as a result of this policy.”

There should be no confusion here. The Creator has not assigned human beings a breeding season. Therefore, it should require no leap of logic at all to say humans engage in sexual intercourse because they enjoy it. Whether married or single it is considered a compelling or preferred recreational activity. The choice is abstinence, which of course now seems too unpopular to consider.

By the way, the cost of a three year education at Georgetown, including surviving household expenses in the D.C. area, is around $200,000. So $3,000 is 1.5% of expense. Such a minimal fluctuation in a three year budget should not register even at the margin with a normal person.

I do see the logic you are following even though no one else seems to be concerned. In fact, the L.A. Times said they will publish the post as a letter. Probably use of the word “facetious” in the last paragraph helps. Anyway if I post it again I will use:

“Ms. Fluke’s testimony connotes that 40% of the women in law school consider sexual intercourse a compelling or preferred recreational activity.”

Okay, RM, now I understand. I'll wager that some people read your post and believed what you wrote because (a) they're pre-dispossessed to believe the worst about Fluke and Georgetown coeds, and (b) Rush Limbaugh did what you did on a lesser scale, but he's believable and he did it repeatedly for two days, so he prepared them for your statement about her testimony.

>> and to the manifest injury of millions of Roman Catholics

Yes, this regime is incredibly hostile to Life, Catholics, Christ, and Liberty.

Read the article. it discusses that the school is fine prescribing BC pills for non contraceptive medicinal reasons.
