Is she right to ask for her President to also stand up for her?

She would've been better off leaving out the not so subtle jabs at President Obama in the process. Diminishes her point, which I find valid.

Sounds like something her mother put her up to .

So to be clear, you're saying she doesn't deserve the same support as Ms. Fluke?

Slip of the tongue? :p

 

:lol: Nope, I really thought her name was "Flake", not Fluke. It has been corrected. :D

I don't think she does. I see her point but I would be more for Obama giving her a call if her situation was similar to Fluke's. Two different scenarios, IMO. Should Obama call every woman that has been publicly ridiculed? Should he call Lindsay Lohan also? I think this stems more from Maher's donation more than anything else.

It was good for a chuckle. :lol:

If you don't think it's similar than there's no use even trying to discuss it. Maher is a major contributor to the President's re-election campaign. That makes it something that he should speak out against.

As BGC said previously it was a mistake for President Obama to comment on Rush. He shouldnt compound it for speaking out against a joke.

Her 15 minutes of fame like that of her Mother's should have been up 3 and a half years ago and Miss Fluke's should be up now .

Well the fact still remains, President Obama did not afford the same "courtesy" to Bristol Palin as he did to Sandra Fluke - and furthermore, he's accepting a LARGE chunk of change from someone who hurled an insult that was just about as nasty as the one Obama was offering his "apology for".

 

Come on...how many people really think President Obama really gives two flips about Sandra Fluke? It was an opportunity to make good press for himself.

Definitely. I'm not sure why it's a mystery beyond this.
