What a shock! It was all a BIG PRODUCTION!
 
Stunner. Georgetown “Coed” Sandra Fluke Is a 30 Year-Old Women’s Rights Activist-
Jammie Wearing Fool reported:

I put that in quotes because in the beginning she was described as a Georgetown law student. It was then revealed that prior to attending Georgetown she was an active women’s right advocate. In one of her first interviews she is quoted as talking about how she reviewed Georgetown’s insurance policy prior to committing to attend, and seeing that it didn’t cover contraceptive services, she decided to attend with the express purpose of battling this policy. During this time, she was described as a 23-year-old coed. Magically, at the same time Congress is debating the forced coverage of contraception, she appears and is even brought to Capitol Hill to testify. This morning, in an interview with Matt Lauer on the Today show, it was revealed that she is 30 years old, NOT the 23 that had been reported all along.

In other words, folks, you are being played. She has been an activist all along and the Dems were just waiting for the appropriate time to play her.

Unreal. This was all just a big dishonest Democrat ploy to take the attention off of Barack Obama’s assault on religious freedom.
It figures.

And the republicans took the bait hook, line, and sinker.

Guest 03-04-2012 11:23 AM

If that is true, does that make it OK for a public figure to call her a slut and a prostitute?

Not sure who is being played here. I, and most if not all, who posted on the limbaugh situation did not defend her testimony or her position. What I did was chastize limbaugh for his ridiculous and vulgar response, which stands regardless of her situation.

Guest 03-04-2012 11:32 AM

So who did the math and figured that the 3rd-year law student - which turns out to be true - *had* to be 23? So far I haven't seen her claiming she was 23 and the real meat of her testimony to the non-official-committee was about someone ELSE who had ovarian cysts.

So now Limbaugh seems to be quoted as saying he "used the wrong words".

Remember Lee Atwater? Republican stategist? Enuf said.......

This was all promoted and enacted by the same people who changed the medical term "sonogram" to a term that they felt would enrage. That's worked also.

Anything to shift focus away from the real issues. It's very clever, and it works every election cycle.

Guest 03-04-2012 12:45 PM

I'm still waiting for President Obama to call Sarah Palin, her daughters, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, Condi Rice, etc. to apologize for all the nasty names they have been called.

Are you also waiting for Montana Chief Federal Judge Richard Cebull to call the president and apologize for the racist email he sent from his judicial email account? Judge Cebull was a George W Bush appointee. Instead of resigning, he apparently will wait for congress to impeach him and remove him from the bench.

I've been away from the forum a few days while I attended a medical symposium at Ohio State! I had a wonderful time discussing and learning with the GURU's of medical imaging...ie-some extremely intelligent, logical, analytic thinkers...only to come back to the forum and the frustration of posters who don't read the posts to which they are replying, and if they do read them, their replies have nothing to do with rational responses to the material they have just read...:oops:

:shrug: Currently questioning the need/desire to continue to visit this forum, let alone post on it. Don't get me wrong...there are some great minds on this forum also! However, most posts appear to only be rotten tomatoes thrown with the emotional response usually expected from a misinformed mob. barf

Does no one care that this person was a phoney?!? Are we reduced to a nation of nit picking, tit for tat, "my scab is bigger than yours" mentality, divisive civil war lovers, who prefer to throw the baby out with the bathwater??? I never mentioned Rush, but yes he should (and apparently did) apologize! That is not the topic of this thread. Keep the diversionary tactics to hinder honest debate of truth.

Guest 03-04-2012 01:06 PM

Say what you want, Rush was very very out of line and should have been shut down by the FCC.

But that is not the topic of this thread...With that in mind, your post could be deleted as "off topic". You truly are missing the point my friend.

What? Are we talking about what Rush said to the young lady.

I do not see this as a marketing trick for Obama's re-election. A lot of law students were activists in one way or another before they went to law school. That is why many of them later chose to get into the law. There were all kinds of various activists at the U of MN Law School. Even one very outspoken one for the rights of animals vs. their owners. She showed up in the MN media from time to time with her various pro-animal crusades.

My guess is that the majority of the law students at a school like Georgetown would have some kind of cause they are very much involved in. Especially with a school near or on the other side of the Beltway.


Do a broader Internet search on Ms. Fluke. From the various news reports I saw on her, she was always described as a more mature law student. I thought they pretty much all said either 29 or 30 years old.

There were law students at the U of MN Law School while I was there who were anywhere from 21 or through 52 or so.

Also, the first reports on various news items often get the facts wrong.
