Sandra Fluke's contraception problem has been solved!

That poor girl to be so horny as to need sex that frequently and then to be treated so terribly by us taxpayers.

It doesn't matter how often you have sex, you still need to take one pill a day. Even if you only end up having sex twice that month. Also, she's speaking out for her friend, not herself, and her friend needs the pills to prevent ovarian cysts. They're a lot more than birth control.

Her friend....hmmmm...and who would that be?

Yep, but maybe she'll take a monthly week off for the red river. Solving the remainder of her wetlands problem.

I think Sandra should attend FlukeU University. It's very generous concerning contraceptives.

whatava.

You right wingers just like your masters can't ever tell the truth. She wasn't testifying for free birth control, like you liars have been spreading. She believes it should be available with her health insurance, like most health insurances make available. Simple testimony, but the women hating party had to lie, and spin like they always do. The right wing in this country is no different then the communist part of the old Soviet Union, they are disgusting!!!!!!!!!

No, you don't get it do you. They took this insurance knowing that it didn't cover birth control because of the schools beliefs. There was no secret there.
She lied about the costs and the fact that the girls could have gotten other insurance.
If you go to work for a company and they only furnish certain insurance, you have to accept it or go someplace else or get more. Its a choice.
But NO, DiMs want everything given to them so that they can galavant around the world rather than pay for their own crap.

Boy you are not a very nice person. Very hateful. Did ya mama raise you to be mean?

Hey I can be nice if the person who replies to me is nice, but your reply was pretty mean. My thinking is give it back as good as I got, and add little more venom to it. That's my philosophy.

Ah! Gotcha. Okeedoekee.

Not exactly the best way to settle differences but I guess its your style....in the meantime, I, being a woman, never met a doctor that didn't GIVE (free) birth control to a woman ... usually about 3 months worth to get started and if you were unable to afford the prescription after that, they would give you a list of places (such as planned parenthood) where you could go get free help.
This should not be up to the Federal government....they can't run a lemonade stand and they shouldn't be in health care.

Well no matter what the right wing tells you, Obama care doesn't run peoples health care. We still have the for profit health insurance to run our health care. BUT the government hasn't done too bad when they do run health care. Ask anyone on Medicare, or veterans health care. Remember when a Tea Party woman shouted out, the government keep your hands off of my Medicare! Pretty funny, but she was right, on one thing, and that was she likes her Medicare. The V.A. is actually the only real socialist health care in this country, and I challenge any right winger in congress that tries to take away the health care from veterans, will get their ass kicked by some burly ex-marine!!!!

Don't even start with me...my dad was a veteran and now that he has passed, the VA wants their so-called 'care' money back and so does medicare. This government is fraudulant liars and i wouldn't trust any of them with my dog's dinner.

Thank you for looking into Ms. Fluke's problem. Pretty good solutions. I would also suggest that she consider abstinence before marriage.

You are welcome and I am with ya on the abstinence.

Don't you test drive a car before purchase?

So a woman is no more special than a car? I always find that comparison to be insulting.

You're a kind and thoughtful human being to have spent such time solving the ho's problem.

Aspirin makes a great, cheap, birth control. Put one aspirin between your knees, and hold it there tightly. Works great!!!

what problem?? all she has got to do is keep her legs closed....best birth control ever

Tell Sandy the Slut Fluke to charge for her commodity rather than giving it away

You don't have to twist her words to refute her. Her estimates aren't based on some scalar multiple of condom usage, but some out of her ass estimate of the costs of doctors visits(an associated expense with pills) and other assundryies, based on the notion that college students rarely find the cheapest health care providers. This thread is puerile. Plenty of far more sound refutations of Fluke can be found out and about. This one simply gives the liberals another strawman to quote in their arguments.

This thread is 'tongue in cheek'...perhaps you missed the meaning altogether.

...I've run into more extreme posts which were fully sincere, so It's kinda hard to tell sometimes... My response would have been similar regardless, seeing as I have a very dry sense of humor.

The only addition I would offer to your suggestion is Sex Addicts Anonymous local phone number...

Yeah, you neglected to talk about a doctor's visit and the actual cost of birth control pills. Redo the math and see what you come up with.

Thanks.

The person doing the math DID allow for the price of the BCPs based on walmart pharmacy pricing.....$9 per month. You can go to a local health dept, get examined for around $30 to get a Rx for birth control OR when you go to your doc for a well woman exam and you have insurance...it's FREE. Well woman exams are covered at 100%. Based on the new ACOG recommendations, a woman in her 20s who has had two regular paps two consective years in a row only has to see the doc for a pap once every 2 years. Docs are now prescribing BCPs so that you get a Rx with 11 refills and when those refills are up, you call the office and they give you another year Rx. If you are in your 30s, 3 normal paps in 3 consective years, you only have to go once every 3 years and they'll give you 3 years worth of BCPs Rxs based on that one visit. Better yet, some stores such as Target are now selling BCPs over the counter...no doc visit required.

For one, even if you get the Well Woman Exam from your doctor and it's covered, the doctor can (and has in many cases) charge you for other issues during the exam. I have one case where a patient was charged an extra 100 bucks for "asking too many questions."

And, that cheaper birth control quote you have isn't going to work for everyone, because of hormonal differences in women and various side effects associated with them. Birth control pills aren't one-size-fits-all, here. It's about being able find affordable care for ALL women. That's the issue.

What of those women who have hormonal or other issues that require another method or just a more effective method of birth control? What happens to them?

Are they just left out of the debate because someone has a religious agenda to push? This issue isn't as simple as others are trying to make it.

Nor, should anyone be demonized for asking that their health care provide for their contraceptive needs.

You said....even if you get the Well Woman Exam from your doctor and it's covered, the doctor can (and has in many cases) charge you for other issues during the exam. I have one case where a patient was charged an extra 100 bucks for "asking too many questions."

And how will Obamacare or his medical insurance laws help that? if you want affordable care, something else has to be done. The pricing of medical care will not be affected by what has been proposed.

Thanks for looking past the issue, but that's a cost that can't be covered... which is what I was talking about, so why not just cover the damned pills? Cover what you can, right?

Or should nothing be covered because doctors can find ways to add costs that coverage can't answer?

because they are not THAT expensive and there are many places a woman CAN go for free health care. i know....i went to free clinics years ago and my doctor would GIVE me 3-6 months free if I needed it. this is nonsense to make the insurance companies look bad when its the MEDICAL INDUSTRY AND THEIR PRICING THAT IS THE PROBLEM. i go to have a blood panel at one lab and its $750...decide the next yr to go to a lab closer ...same blood panel and its $250!!!!!!!!!!!
if the politicians are serious about doing something with health care, they need to address THAT!

wait, so everything that's not that expensive (whatever that price is to you) shouldn't be covered on your health care plan? Is that what you're saying?

no, i am saying that birth control is a different issue because my belief system could be different than yours but we are all thrown into the same pool and my premiums go up because the GOVERNMENT decides to DICTATE what insurance companies will and will not cover. The government has no right to tell my insurance carrier how to write my policy.

But, your BOSS does?

If you are working for a church or certain religious organization...yes.

Why do they get a special pass? Why can't all organizations get that right to decide what you don't need based on their own personal views, regardless of religion?

Lets say, they don't want to include basic dental coverage, because they don't like teeth... do you think that's fine?
