The Lena Dunham ad that filled countless fainting couches
Apparently, the ad below has caused Republicans to triple their usual order for fainting couches. Kelly Fenton, deputy chair of the Minnesota Republican Party, tweeted yesterday that Satan must now be serving as Obama’s campaign adviser. The always reliable Erick Erickson of RedState.com preached that it’s evidence “we live in a fallen world destined for hellfire.”
That noted defender of American womanhood and feminine virtue, Rush Limbaugh, even denounced the ad as “an insult to women everywhere.” There is no truth to the rumor that he and his pals then boarded a plane bound for the Dominican Republic, copious supplies of Viagra in their baggage. Or maybe there is, I wouldn’t want to speculate.
Anyway, here’s the ad:
The ad won’t appear on mainstream TV, and probably not on TV anywhere at all. It is designed to be shared, on Facebook and elsewhere, by those for whom it is a target audience and who, given the comments of leading Republicans such as Richard Mourdock of Indiana and Todd Akin of Missouri, might have a lot at stake in this election. It was posted on Youtube yesterday, and already has more than a million views.
As for those outraged by the decline of today’s young people well, we’ve been down this road many many times before, now haven’t we?

Nancy was a bit stiff, but I gained respect for her with how she handled Reagan’s decline post-presidency. That was indeed classy. I’m not sure I’d claim Betty Ford as classy all the time, although she did redeem herself as she aged and the clinic has done a lot to help people. I also think Rosalyn Carter was impeccable and classy. Hillary- not so much, but that personality of hers seems to have served her well in public service beyond the WH. Very few rank anywhere close to Jackie, but I do think I’ve liked many of the first ladies better than the presidents in Republican administrations.

When will people actually educate themselves. The insurance coverage Fluke has is NOT subsidized by Georgetown, and it is NOT subsidized by taxpayers. Unless you have insurance through the same provider, you are not paying jack sh*t towards her birth control. When she went before Congress, she did not ask for you to pay for her birth control.

‘Little did I know that I would find myself in a reception room being comforted, hugged, and, yes, even kissed by the President of the United States. Along with the President, there was Vice-President Joe Biden, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, and General and Mrs Colin Powell.
‘They were all wonderful. They held my hand, offered condolences, gave warm hugs, and were extremely compassionate and genuinely sad for my loss, as I fought back tears and tried to project an image of strength to honor my SEAL son.’

Here’s a transcript of her testimony…
http://www.buzzfeed.com/boxofficebuz/transcript-of-testimony-by-sandra-fluke-48z2
I attend a Jesuit law school that does not provide contraceptive coverage in its student health plan. And just as we students have faced financial, emotional, and medical burdens as a result, employees at religiously-affiliated hospitals and institutions and universities across the country have suffered similar burdens…
And especially in the last week, I have heard more and more of their stories. On a daily basis, I hear yet from another woman from Georgetown or from another school or who works for a religiously-affiliated employer, and they tell me that they have suffered financially and emotionally and medically because of this lack of coverage….
One told us about how embarrassed and just powerless she felt when she was standing at the pharmacy counter and learned for the first time that contraception was not covered on her insurance and she had to turn and walk away because she couldn’t afford that prescription….
Just last week, a married female student told me that she had to stop using contraception because she and her husband just couldn’t fit it into their budget anymore….
A friend of mine, for example, has polycystic ovarian syndrome, and she has to take prescription birth control to stop cysts from growing on her ovaries. Her prescription is technically covered by Georgetown’s insurance because it’s not intended to prevent pregnancy.
“Unfortunately, under many religious institutions and insurance plans, it wouldn’t be. There would be no exception for other medical needs. And under Sen. Blunt’s amendment, Sen. Rubio’s bill or Rep. Fortenberry’s bill there’s no requirement that such an exception be made for these medical needs….
For my friend and 20% of the women in her situation, she never got the insurance company to cover her prescription. Despite verifications of her illness from her doctor, her claim was denied repeatedly on the assumption that she really wanted birth control to prevent pregnancy. She’s gay. So clearly polycystic ovarian syndrome was a much more urgent concern than accidental pregnancy for her….
As she put it, ‘If my body indeed does enter early menopause, no fertility specialist in the world will be able to help me have my own children. I will have no choice at giving my mother her desperately desired grandbabies simply because the insurance policy that I paid for, totally unsubsidized by my school, wouldn’t cover my prescription for birth control when I needed it…
We expected that when 94% of students oppose the policy the university would respect our choices regarding insurance students pay for – completely unsubsidized by the university…
Sorry for the long post, but I know you’re not going to click on the link and read the entire testimony, so I thought I’d post the parts where she talked about contraception and/or insurance. Care to show where she asked YOU, me, or anybody else to subsidize her insurance?

May be too little, too late, but a valiant effort, none the less.
Maybe not. Power will be out for a week or more. They’ll stay

“Could you remind me which article of the Constitution says College’s must provide the exact same insurance to their students that they give to their faculty again? I can’t seem to find it”
Could you remind me which tenet of their “religion” says they can provide something objectionable to some people…but not to others?

There’s so many variations of “Joseph” here, I’m looking for the one who wrote a civil war book, recently.
