Let's see, Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown law student, complains that contraceptives cost $3,000 and it is a hardship for. So she wants her contraceptives provided free by the taxpayers.
What law students doing that requires three thousand dollars worth of contraceptives?! They must be busy beavers!
Rush Limbaugh stirred up a hornet's nest with the feminists by referring to Fluke as a "slut" and "prostitute."
From Fox News:
Limbaugh later said on his show that the student was effectively arguing that the students "must be paid to have sex."
"What does that make her? It makes her a slut, right. It makes her a prostitute. She wants to be paid to have sex. She's having so much sex, she can't afford the contraception," he said.
His response to the uproar:
"Miss Fluke and the rest of you feminazis, here's the deal: If we are going to pay for your contraceptives and thus pay for you to have sex, we want something for it, and I'll tell you what it is. We want you to post the videos online so we can all watch."
Sounds more than fair to me, although Limbaugh was illustrating absurdity by saying something absurd.
If $3,000 for contraceptives is too much for your pocketbook, then abstain! As Rush said today:
"If you can't afford it, you can't do it."
Additionally, Fluke isn't all she claims to be. The Gateway Pundit found:
What a shock! It was all a BIG PRODUCTION! The Democrat’s token abused college coed is actually a 30 year-old hardcore women’s rights activist.
Sandra Fluke is also the past president of Law Students for Reproductive Justice.
