Isn't Sandra Fluke going to Georgetown (a Jesuit University) and demanding contraceptive coverage the same as?

me going to a Jewish college and demanding bacon cheeseburgers and ham be offered in the cafeteria?

    It is worse. The knowing use of abortifacient contraceptives is more opposed by the Catholic Church than the consumption of pig meat is by Jewish religious authorities. Abortion is held to be murder by the Catholic Church.

    Her record of activism strongly suggests that her sad story of a "hard case to justify a bad law" is just the thin edge of the wedge to try to get a Catholic institution pay for abortifacient birth control.

    There are reported to be no less than three federally funded Planned Parenthood clinics near Georgetown. There it is easy for any woman to get free contraception. As a longtime "contraception rights" activist, the soon to be 31 years old Ms. Fluke could have helped her poor, unnamed friend get all the contraception she wanted to avert her medical emergency---if she actually existed.

    Fluke actually said that contraception could cost $3000 during law school. It actually costs $9 per month. She simply lied about the cost.

    No, because you'll never get a doctor to prescribe bacon cheeseburgers and ham.

    She spoke only about hormonal contraceptives prescribed for medical conditions other than birth control. Go read the transcript. You're embarrassing yourself.

    No.

    It would be more like going to a Jewish college and demanding that your health insurance plan that you pay for provide contraceptive coverage.

    No, it would be the same as asking your insurance company to cover the medical expenses from your heart attack after a lifestyle of eating bacon cheeseburgers.

    Actually it's more in line with going to a Jehovah's Witness affiliated university and complaining they let your friend die because blood transfusions aren't covered.

    It's hard to imagine that someone could be so idiotic as to think the money was going for condoms.

    Yes. There is no difference.

    But it's not fascism if liberals do it!

    EDIT: I like how that feminist reality has a liberal bias complains about people getting insulted and really was hurt by the fact that someone would insult Sandra Fluz but insults you.

    Libocracy Has a Liberal Bias!

    The college is just a side show. She's affiliated with Media Matters.

    yup. She complained about spending $3,000/year.

    At $1 per prophylactic, that equates to 8.2 men/day average. She is a busy girl, no wonder why she is 30 and still in college.

    Yep, it's ridiculous. Unless for medical reasons, which let's face it, seems doubtful
