Rush Limbaugh calls Georgetown Law student a "slut" and "prostitute"

If vasectomies are covered by a Catholic health insurers without complaint the Catholics are being hypocrites since vasectomies are a form of contraception.

 

You're asking me to research, when just a moment ago you were claiming that she didn't have any choice?

Fail.

More fail, from your link:

That's how much insurance through Georgetown is. You can secure rates like that everywhere. She can get insurance for comparable rates from a lot of providers.

Now what excuse will you offer?

 

Classic. Saying Sandra Fluke, or any Georgetown student for that matter, has a choice in opting for health care plans is like telling a person who lives in the country that if they don't want to pay for automobile insurance, don't drive.

Fluke's options are either pay for Georgetown's policy, which is included in tuition and is very feasible considering the option of loans or pay for a healthcare policy out-of-pocket that must include coverage of at least $100,000 per illness and $100,000 per injury. As you can imagine, acquiring such a policy wouldn't be cheap. And when you factor in she's a student and it's paid out-of-pocket, maybe you'll understand how impractical it truly is.

 

Rush Limbaugh probably thinks women need to take birth control every time they have sex because he has to take Viagra every time he does.

 

Well maybe Government shouldn't be mandating people to buy overpriced health plans and should allow a minimal plan for some people?

The problem is Government is madating everyone buy coverage, and then forcing the only coverage to be available is comprehensive stuff which costs alot of money.

People should have the option of a (*)(*)(*)(*)ty mini-med plan that is more affordable.

Government shouldn't be making people buy cadillac plans.

 

It looks like BC plays a limited role in preventing ovarian cysts, despite the propaganda of others on here.

Women who use high-dose estrogen and progestin birth control pills have a modestly decreased risk of developing functional ovarian cysts. Low-dose birth control pills seem to have a less preventive effect.1

Experts disagree about the use of birth control pills to shrink and eliminate ovarian cysts that have already formed. Some studies show that the cysts shrink at the same rate with or without birth control pill use.2

And even some forms of BC cause ovarian cysts.

However, the propaganda machine is strong in this thread.

 

Becuase that is how beotch women are. They will get what they want and if society won't give it to them voluntarily they'll force Government to give them what they want.

 

A lot of law students are married. Some to each other. Some have long-term relationships and are living together but waiting to finish school before they get married and start a family. That's called being responsible. By the time a woman gets to law school, she's a mature individual and planning a career when she graduates. She wants to wait a few years before having children. If she wants to have a sexual relationship with somebody, what business is it of anybody else? You wouldn't call a male law student having sex with somebody a "sex-crazed law student", would you?

Why does it matter if it's "common" or not? If only 1 woman out of 100 or 1000 has an ovarian cyst, that 1 has no right to have access to treatment?

Breast cancer in men isn't "common" but it does happen. Should an insurance policy cover breast cancer in women but not in men because it isn't "common"?

 

Where were you going to find an insurance company that would cover pre-existing conditions or not be allowed to drop you in the middle of life-saving treatment - like dialysis or chemotherapy - because it was costing them too much money? Or one that couldn't refuse to pay to repair a newborn's cleft palate because they declared it a "pre-existing condition"?

And if you found yourself dropped in the middle of an illness, no other company would insure you because of your "pre-existing condition" so personal responsibility or not, you were NOT going to find other coverage.

The dreaded "Obamacare" prohibits the insurance companies from doing this to you. You won't need to try to find "other coverage" while you're dying with cancer or recovering from a heart attack. Now when an ins co sells you coverage, they have to provide it whether they like it or not. I see that as an improvement but maybe you don't.

 

I completely disagree with Rush. What he said was completely wrong in my opinion. There is no way this chick can possibly be a slut or prostitute. She too (*)(*)(*)(*) butt fugly to having any kind of sex. She might as well use a tic tac for contraception since no one in their right mind would do miss McNasty.

 

Where did I call her a "sexed-crazed law student"? If they were responsible, then they should be using condoms. Even then, BC cost nothing up to $50 dollars a month. If these law students are responsible, like you claim (which I highly contest your rosy picture), then they can pool their funds together to cover their $2-$3/day sexual activities.

I went to grad school with law students and they are hardly the picture that you paint above. Seriously, what sheltered life do you live in?

More lies from you. Where did I argue against access to treatment for a malignant ovarian cyst? As I initially said in post #483, "I have no problem with health insurance covering her friend's rare disease." Instead, you chose to be dishonest and shove words down my mouth, opposite of what I actually said. Either you have a problem with the English language or you have a problem with honesty. Which is it?

I still await for someone to prove their contention with my claim that losing a ovary due to a cyst is uncommon, not common.

 

Stay classy, Mac-7!

 

IIRC, Fluke said she lost the ovary because she couldn't afford the $100 a month charge for the BC pills she needed. Since she was being treated for a medical condition, she probably needed a specific type of pills.

Most BC pills are made in doses of 20, 35 and 50 micrograms of estrogen. The stronger pills are needed to treat ovarian cysts and I would expect are more expensive than the more common low dose ones.

If this woman was in law school supporting herself on student loans and scholarships, it makes sense to me that $100 a month for medication would have been very hard for her to come up with. $100 a month is hard for a lot of people to come up with even if they're out of school and working and esp. someone who's paying back those student loans and supporting themselves.

 

This hobag expect insurance to pay for it which mean we all have to cover it with our premiums which would have to go up to cover this none sense. She should have done what all adults do if they need to buy something, get a job and pay for it. But nooooo, going to school is more important than her health so she wants the pills to be covered under insurance so she can continue her education rather than getting a night job or drop a class or two which might force her to get her degree in 5 years instead of 4. (*)(*)(*)(*) that (*)(*)(*)(*)(*), she can work for her pills like I work to pay the water and light bills.

 

You mean like the public option that Dems wanted and Repubs refused to allow because it would have cut into ins cos profits? LOL!

 

Sorry folks. I realise the discussion is still continuing, but you know the rules. 50 pages and the thread is locked. Feel free to start a second thread if you wish to discuss this issue further.
