Hello. Just like conciencious objectors wouldn’t have to fire a shot in anger during war even if they enlisted. Or scientologists don’t believe in psychology and its not forced upon them. The Catholic church shouldn’t have to go against its beliefs and fund contraception. My wife has worked in 2 catholic hospitals it was told upfront what was covered and what wasn’t. If you could get into Georgetown you should be able to get into an equally prestigous law program that would cover your health needs. Ms. Fluke says her friend is a lesbian which the church is against but still has her attend the school. In the testimony it breaks down to about 20 dollars a week for her personal pill..My dental plan doesn’t cover a lot my optical plan doesn’t cover it all my perscription glasses are high contacts are higher. Its my personal choice to get the contacts I don’t think my orgainization should pay for them. If medically necessary you only have 60 days in a nursing home with my insurance some other plans have 90 or 120 I opted to get the cheaper plan so I only have 60. Ok going to get a tooth pulled now for 200 bucks if I would have had the bridgework done etc would have been 1000. 20 bucks a week would be forgoing 5 movies..5 cups of starbucks…couple of pizzas….a minumum wage job working about 5 hours a week… If you are going to force one religous organization to break its code whats next No Burkas for the Muslims…Make the Amish drive cars…Make Kosher illeagle..really whats next

This is EXACTLY the issue, Mr. Marcus. Well said! Ms. Fluke needs to grow up and take responsibility for her life, and its various needs. This is called ‘being an adult’.

You people are unbelievable. Birth control is not only used for pregnancy prevention, you idiots. Do your research there are MANY other reasons for birth control pills. Most of you “Christians are going to rot in hell anyways because you are hypocritical EVIL people passing judgement on those you have no right to. ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE!!!! Isnt that right? Oh no, but you take it upon yourselves. Insurance pays for birth control, and that comes out of their own paychecks. If you arent paying for birth control you will be paying for welfare for those who can support their children. You choose, you dimwitted morons.

Candy for the Kids for Votes……..rather contraception.

This is so obvious on the part of the Democrats.

Thank you Thy Black Man Staff.

P.S. NPR pointed out that Fluke has been shopping for her contraception in the Wrong Place.

Turns out she said she paid $3,000.00 a year. And if she went to the Target in her Georgetown area, it would have only cost her $9.00 a month.

Of course, her local county health department and planned parenthood give it out for FREE.

Rush should not have apologized. He should have told her to get with John Edwards. They could open a new Law office called “Slut ‘n Skunk AAL”.

> am I weird or old-fashion for thinking it a bit shameful for a woman to go before congressional committee to basically say, I sleep around a lot

If she was married she would also be denied birth control. When my wife and I were first married she worked for a Catholic hospital and birth control was not covered under her insurance. This issue isn’t about promiscuity. You’re a fool if you fight that angle.

Watch her testimony, then write a judgmental article about her.
She never talked about her personal life and she only cited medical reasons for covering birth control. The examples were: someone who had recurring incidences of ovarian cysts and was able to get birth control because it was covered for insurance to treat cysts, someone who needed birth control to treat cancer and could not get insurance coverage because a concrete diagnosis required surgery, and someone who had recurring episodes of ovarian cysts, was denied coverage because insurance claimed she wanted birth control for recreational sex and later developed a tennis ball sized cyst that resulted in loss of an ovary and symptoms of early menopause.

I’m a moderate democrat but I agree with the liberals on the issues of the Bush wars. I dissaprove of the Iraq war and I do not think we should have entered Iraq. I think we should have hunted down Al Aquaid leaders like John Kerry said during the Bush/Kerry face-off for president.

I work and I pay taxes. My tax dollars went to fund the war in Iraq that I do not think should have been fought in the first place. Republicans are always the agressor. Republicans always make me fund things I don’t believe in.

It’s unfortunate Rush used the word “Slut.” He could have mentioned her self admitted promiscuity, for which the sord “slut” is quite appropriate.
