    I wasn't stating any of them as the truth of the matter, just that they were said. I've seen posters here who use the term Ubama, so I included it in the OP.

    Maher is the lefts idol on this site. He can say in all vulgarity...what the left aren't allowed to type here. Over and over and over.

    I think it makes their leg tingle.

    Who cares what he said. He is left wing, otherwise he'd donate to Ron Paul or Gary Johnson. He gave one million dollars to Obama's campaign.

    Right wing logic at work. YOU TAKE BIRTH CONTROL ONCE A DAY, EVERYDAY... IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU HAVE SEX. A WOMAN MUST CONTINUALLY TAKE THE PILLS EVEN WHEN NOT HAVING SEX. You are MISINFORMED about birth control.

    You guys think birth control pills are like condoms. Rush couldn't google birth control pills before starting that laughable embarrassing rant over misinformation.

    She needs so much contraception!!! She's having too much sex lol. Ignorance

    I'll say this. The left had best hope, and fervently, that the right does not employ the same tactics as the left regarding personalities who do things over the edge.

    Should the day happen when right wakes up and employs those same tactics the left used and uses on Dr. Laura Schlessinger, Anita Bryant, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck etc, etc...they will regret it immensely.

    The right is more structurally organized now. Collected ideologies with voice and power that the left had always enjoyed exclusively. It is eventually gonna happen. Mark my words. Boycott ruination and sponsor attacks are on the horizon for the left.

    Not yet. The right still holds some fair play scruples in this particular area. But it will come.

    Actually, if the conservatives start whining about being called evil barbarians some serving Democrats will lose their advertisers. And, before you ask, it was Joe Biden with the barbarian slur.

    He called a private citizen testifying under oath at a Congressional hearing on a public health issue a barbarian?

    I could bring your attention to this thread:

    http://www.politicalforum.com/humor-satire/199274-lighthearted-look-flotus-vol-iv.html

    Apparently it's classified as "Humor & Satire", but page after page are pointed insults at one woman and her body size.

    I used to think of American's as really polite people, possibly the most polite on the planet. Always calling each other Sir and Ma'm... That is no longer the case, it seems now that a significant proportion of the population are now the rudest people I've ever heard speak.

    The organisation that came out in her defence and said something like "we disagree but are talking about it in an adult manner"?

    That organisation?

    The one that defended her?

    That one?

    Is she buying $1,000.00/ year of condoms?

    You realize that you would take the same amount of birth control pills whether you had sex once a year or a thousand times, right?

    No. Apparently the Right missed this about how the Pill works. It sounds amazing, but it seems that ones political affiliation determines how much you know about birth control pills.

    Someone's going to have to explain that to me....

    The secret hint is on the popper pack:

    Note how cunningly the manufacturer writes the day of the week next to each tablet.

    I think you are wholeheartedly confused.Like a little kid the first time
    in a candy store and Mommy has to keep pulling the child back away
    from sticking their hands inside those big glass bubbles filled with
    different hard candy.
    In the first place,the right accepts apologies and the Left refuses to.
    The latest and most obvious proof is the Limbaugh apology.
    I knew as did David Limbaugh what to expect when Rush made his
    belated apology this saturday.I knew because like Rush and
    brother David ... I know these { lefties} people like the back of my
    hand.Rush's apology not only wasn't accepted by lefties it was used
    as a way to justify going after him full bore.As David wrote ...
    " they went after his scalp ".It's what the left does.It no longer is
    merely a double standard it's Job One.To Destroy every vestige of
    a Republican,come hell or high water.They are worse than swarming
    killer bees.Another example would be George Allen.And his use of
    a made-up word " Macaca ".Thet relentlessly destroyed him,apology
    be D@mned. It's what the lefties do.
    But yer biggest confusion in all this Poster,is that the Right generally
    does not name-call.Yes a few talk radio personality do.Like Michael
    Savage.Even Mark Levin.Maybe it's a jewish thing like smoking big
    fat cigars.But then Michael Medved and Dennis Prager almost refuse
    the temptation to lower their standards and name call.
    Regardless. The Bill Maher's of the world not only profit but get
    promoted for their vile name calling.And they also refuse to
    put any checks and balances on each other.When was the last time
    you heard Maher or Jon Stewart make jokes directed at each other.
    It's a Club.It's a Clique.
    I'm kinda glad they use that old photo of Rushbo with that Big long
    stogy.The better to blow smoke in their face,I say.
    Like the good old days.

    Perhaps some only need to take one a week, the rest of the days they take a big ol' pill of faith.

    The voters don't care about this tempest in a teapot. Gas prices have everybody's attention.

    http://campaign2012.washingtonexami...ntial/what-did-sandra-fluke-really-say/408191

    these are her exact comments

    "Without insurance coverage, contraception, as you know, can cost a woman over $3,000 during law school. For a lot of students who, like me, are on public interest scholarships, that’s practically an entire summer’s salary. 40% of the female students at Georgetown Law reported to us that they struggle financially as a result of this policy."

    So during 7 years a person with out insurance coverage (meaning she might be including payments for the doctor's visit for prescription), and also including alt means of birth control. Such as IUD which last many years but cost btwn $500.00 -$1,000.00.

    She does not say she has no insurance. She wants her birth control free. I still would like to know how she gets to $1000 when you can get the pills at walmart for $10 a month

    Because it is not what she said, if you read my post your question was just answered. She stated over the time it takes to go through law school (7 years) the cost for a person without insurance can be as much a $3,000.00.

    Can you post her comment of $1,000/ per year with insurance?
