Seems this president only cares about women on the lefts treatment and does NOT work for all women just certain women.

Do you see the difference, though, between Fluke and Palin?

Have you ever heard the invective that Palin has flung towards Obama and the entire "left". While some of these comments were just differences of opinions, which is fine and expected considering she was capainging, many of the comments were inflammatory, character assassinations, and underhanded insults. When you put rhetoric out there like that, you invite insults.

Now, Bristol Palin, back in 2008 did not deserve what the media was heaping on her because of her mother. And Obama did stand up for her. So please don't ignore that.

Flukes "comments" consisted of a testimony at congressional hearing.

One type of commentary is done to incite the public by being negative and the other is just a civic discourse regarding a governmental policy.

You mean like increasing the wellfare roles and encouraging illegals to come here for a free ride? That kind of "constructive"?

Why are you *******s deflecting the point of the OP. Try to keep up! It's not about Bristol getting knocked up, it's about Bill Maher calling her worse names than Rush used and yet Obama has no problem accepting $1m from him. Hypocritical double standard.

You're showing your blind ideology.

...and you call us intolerant.

If Bristol's phone isn't ringing enough... may be she shouldn't have registered it as a 900-number or at least advertise it more?

Hey look Bristol even has an IMDb profile. And there is plenty on it, Entertainment Tonight, Leno, jeeze, So this is one entertainer saying bad things about another entertainer. Kind of like when Joan Rivers was badmouthing Elizabeth Taylor.

Bristol Palin - IMDb

The difference is Limbaugh is considered a leader of the Republican Party as opposed to Maher who is a comedian whose act has a heavy liberal slant.

So quit acting like your mom, it's not a good look anymore.

No she does not represent 99% of women.

She is a left wing Obama hack who wants me to pay for her birth control.

She is a joke and most women see right through her Obama scam job.

Her point was nothing to do with womens health care and you know it.

Nice try.
