Infact she is a professional student. That is all she does. That and she needs someone to buy her birth control.

Like someone on twitter said earlier tonight,

Sandra Fluke is like a red cape that Republicans can't resist charging at...

I hope some of you geniuses know that thanks to Rush Limbaugh and yourselves, Fluke has more fame and is probably getting her dream job offers constantly, all thanks to you. She probably would have been a typical unemployed law student in this market if all this hadn't happened.

Low brow sex jokes and cheap shots are what we get. Have you seen all the butt sex references when talking about gay rights? It's such a classy bunch.

I think Sandra Fluke is great. Large elements of the GOP have long been resentful of young, professional women. She just triggers an instinctual misogyny in so many RWNJs that it is almost as though they cannot help themselves.

Because she wants you to pay for her birth control and calling her a bleepin' freeloading idiot doesn't get you tagged a racist.

I think what must drive them nuts the most is that they were expecting her to fall apart from the media attention, or have some sex tape appear or something.

Instead, she was poised, dignified, and parlayed the experience into establishing herself as a woman's right activist and a big deal in the Democratic party.

I almost feel bad for them. They thought that they were bullying a fragile co-ed... In reality, they were dealing with a 30 year old lawyer who wasn't going to let them intimidate or bully her.

No, she doesn't. And I'm betting nobody here would have even thought of that if Rush hadn't gone postal on her. She wants people to get what they need, what our Dr's want us to have, and not just what some random corporate folk think they can get away with with giving us. We ALL pay.

If it wasn't for Rush hardly anyone would know who she is. Since Rush the junkie attacked her, Rush's army of idiots jump and bark , like the obedient dogs they are.

Woof woof.

No. You should find better information sources, because those you rely on are clearly lying to you.
