If true and he paid for the safeguards himself then what's the bitch?
Maybe it's sort of like that goose and gander and what's good for who sort of thing? Maybe you just don't see the broader picture: GET THE POLITICIANS OUT OF MY BEDROOM.
But you want the politiicans in your bedroom, don't you?
Otherwise, this would be a contract between Ms. Fluke and Georgetown University/the Catholic Church.
Georgetown agrees to provide an educaiton and basic health care but not pay for her birth control, because she isnt there to have sex. She's there to get a degree.
This is about a politician telling Georgetown that they have to pay for her birth control whether they want to or not. Even if it violates their most sacred religious beliefs.
Now, I think this is fine and all. But let's call this what it is, you want the government to take Ms. Flukes side over the Church's side. No one put a gun to Ms. Fluke's head to make her go to Georgetown. She could have gone to any other law school where this wouldn't have been an issue.
I have no problem with this. The Church is an employer like anyone else, and if we've decided this is the law, this is the law. But please don't whine about the "government being in your bedroom" when you invited them there. (Metaphorically, of course. Wouldn't want you go all Faux outrage or anything.)
