Billo still has issues with Sandra Fluke

Bill O’Reilly: Sandra Fluke Smirked All The Way Through Her Convention Speech

Posted by Ellen on September 07, 2012

Bill O’Reilly is still smearing Sandra Fluke as some kind of radical slut – and last night Megyn Kelly helped

O’Reilly seemed especially grouchy last night during his show which aired shortly before Joe Biden and Barack Obama made their convention speeches. Democratic women, it seems, have really been making him out of sorts – what with their concerns about reproductive rights that they’ve been voicing all over the place during the convention.

“I am very confused,” O’Reilly said to Kelly during their on-air chat. “All I’m hearing this week, everywhere I go, is that the women, American women, their right to choose is being threatened. I don’t know what that means. To choose what?” O’Reilly argued that Roe v. Wade ensured the legality of abortions and that contraceptives are freely available. “What’s threatened?” he asked.

Only penis-havers get to speak without permission from penis-havers. Those vagina-havers just have to live with this fact.
<== Do not want to trigger Poe's Law.

Romney and Ryan are pro-life and Romney )if president) would appoint conservative Supreme Court Justices.

Justices that would vote to OVERTURN Roe v. Wade if the issue came before the Court.

Also, red state legislators are voting on bills that put restrictions on abortion access, and bills that require trans-vaginal ultrasounds (bill passed this year in Texas), etc.

It is amazing how UNEDUCATED the Republicans are on the ISSUES that they 'try' to talk about!

3. Gee, who would have thought that a sexual harasser would have issues with a smart, strong woman?

And for the record, Falafel boy, Ms. Fluke doesn't have 'a smirk.'
It's a smile - and it's a beautiful one.
Get used to looking at it, as this generation's Gloria Steinheim, she's going to be annoying you for a looong time.

Bill O'Reilly Has No Problem With Limits On Women's Reproductive Rights
Posted by Priscilla on September 07, 2012

As News Hounds Ellen pointed out, Bill O'Reilly was doing his best cranky, old man imitation at last night's Democratic Convention. He was particularly incensed about the consistent defense of abortion rights because he couldn't wrap his overly inflated cranium around the Democratic narrative that our reproductive rights are being threatened. In supporting his claim that these rights are not under assault (AS IF), he made the factually correct statements that birth control is legal and "if you want any kind of birth control device, you can get it." But here's the thing. Thanks to O'Reilly and his pro-life pals, who just hate the idea that those slutty sluts are having wild sex for recreation and not procreation, you may be able to "get" birth control; but your access to it is being made more difficult. Let me splain it to Bill because I don't want him to be confused!

Pharmacists can cite their religious beliefs and refuse to fill birth control prescriptions - a policy that Walgreen's allows. Reports of this happening have ocurred in many states. The devout "pro-life" Catholic (like Bill) governor of Kansas, Sam Brownback, recently signed a law that allows pharmacists, on religious grounds, to deny women birth control pills or emergency contraception. In Oklahoma, a doctor, citing religious reasons, refused to provide emergency contraception to a rape victim. The woman had to go to another hospital to get the medication and the rape kit. As we speak, the New Hampshire"Right to Life" is attempting to deny Planned Parenthood their pharmaceutical license which would impact on its ability to dispense birth control. And if the Bill's anti-choice pals get their way, Planned Parenthood will be defunded which would, most likely, result in closing of clinics where low income women get their birth control.
