Social Justice Advocate? "Fluke co-founded the New York Statewide Coalition for Fair Access to Family Court, which successfully advocated for legislation granting access to civil orders of protection for unmarried victims of domestic violence, including teen LGBTQ victims. Fluke was also a member of the Manhattan Borough President's Taskforce on Domestic Violence and numerous other New York City and New York State coalitions that successfully advocated for policy improvements impacting victims of domestic violence. While in New York City, she worked for Sanctuary for Families, which aids victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. In 2011, Fluke was a recipient of the Women Lawyers of Los Angeles' Fran Kandel Public Interest Grant from Georgetown University Law Center, which supported her production of a video on how to take out a restraining order. She also "represented numerous victims of domestic violence and human trafficking" and worked to help child victims of domestic human trafficking in Kenya. She served as president of the Georgetown Law Students for Reproductive Justice student organization, and graduated cum laude in 2012. She passed the California Bar in July 2012." ..sort of sounds like a social justice advocate to me.
My feeling is that if you're going to do something humanitarian, great, but just do it. Don't use it as a springboard to go on national TV and/or jump-start a political career (I'd be astonished if she didn't run for something). The Little Sisters of the Poor (who Ms. Fluke seems to want to strong-arm into providing birth-control) do humanitarian things all day and they don't try and become talking-heads on CNN. Look, I'm sure that this woman has some decent traits but I would just as soon not have to put up with her so much.
It seemed to start when the Issa committee invited a bunch of old religious men to testify about birth control/health insurance and stated that Fluke was unqualified in the matter. (Issa also banned two Catholic women's groups reps, apparently hoping to showcase a panel of sycophants who agreed with his view). My feeling is if you're a car thief and want to start a political career, what the heck.
And any government-provided birth control money for rich women like her takes away funds for the poor. A problem with welfare-for-the-rich, which seems to be a major policy element for Democrats these days.

It can be shortened as "socialator". Know the term?

Georgetown gave her the grant? Is that the same Georgetown who she tried to get free birth control from?
Women Lawyers of LA gave her the grant; Georgetown gave her the cum
laude. I'm not sure what student
health gave her.
She did all that while fucking her brains out.....impressive gal...

I'm certainly not going to defend Issa, BB.

The thing is, she was already quite well off from government largesse, and she came to Congress to beg for even more.
She had set her sights higher and was trying to screw the country this time.
I'm actually in favor of providing birth control access to poor women but, like you say, she's not exactly poor.
I looked hard for links about Fluke's promiscuity, but could only find Rush Limbaugh.
And any government-provided birth control money for rich women like her takes away funds for the poor. A problem with welfare-for-the-rich, which seems to be a major policy element for Democrats these days.
None of the fine fellows at Issa's hearing were concerned about the
health insurance coverage for Viagra.
