What is with the terrible facelift?

Her posts were just as awful. The bullish vitriol in which she posted had taken me by surprise. No wonder Marie Barone never really like her!!!!

Won’t be watching “The Middle” anymore

Heaton’s vile tweets speak for themselves. She’s of poor moral character.

This has nothing to do with taxpayers “paying for birth control” – no taxpayers are involved at all. It’s about employers or insurance companies providing it since it’s a vital part of women’s health which helps treat a whole host of issues related to having lady parts.

The biggest problem with Heaton’s tweets is that she was lying about Sandra Fluke. She completely misrepresented what her testimony was about and implied she was a “filthy slut.” I bet Heaton had a conversation with her attorney while her account was down, because her nasty comments were grounds for a lawsuit. I know Heaton was friends with Andrew Breitbart so it doesn’t surprise me to know that she doesn’t see anything wrong with lying about political opponents.

so long career.

So, what were the disgusting comments about Andrew Breitbart’s sudden death last week??
You and from what I can see from these posts are all hypocrites!!

Not a very good one? Even though he sometimes makes good points, he’s always been a smug asshole.

the fact that there are 50 year old fatties that think i should support their junkfood lifestyles by paying for their insulin shows they are stupid. Get it?

Is that what Sandra Fluke thinks? Have you actually seen the videotape statement she made to the panel (because Issa decided that a panel lacking any women were the best determiners of women’s health than an actual woman) or is what you think Fluke said based on hearsay and what others have said she said?

Actually Georgetown does not have an issue with providing women with heatlhcare, including birth control. Moreover, her 15 minutes were due to the GOP’s refusal to hear from a woman on women’s health on the all-male panel, and allowing for a second-class citizen treatment via videotape; so her notice is due to GOP mishandling of their idiotic war on woman on not on the part of Fluke herself, who was a private citizen attempting to give testimony on a hearing involving women’s health. Finally, it was Limbaugh who shot her to stardom by shooting himself in the foot. So the irony of your ID is amazing considering how ignorant you are of how these events transpired.

And just to see how validated your paranoia is, what are the “FAR worse things” Maher has said about “woman”[sic]?

What do you mean if you can’t stand the heat get out of the political kitchen? Fluke had an agenda that ones can go along with it or not. No one is forcing anyone to agree with Fluke, but if there is a disagreement, make sure that it is done with meaning. Names were called, she got slapped backhandedly, and it was done publicly. They (Limbaugh & Heaton) did it purposely, or otherwise they wouldn’t have done what they did. They know better. If they can’t do constructive criticism, not misconstrue what was being said and not call a person a name like “slut”, than fine. The foul language and misunderstanding were so unnecessary. They know that they were wrong, that’s why they are apologizing… but whether they mean it or not is a different story.

Given the fact that you think anyone is asking you to pay for anyone’s birth control indicates just how much your stupidity is showing. Maybe you should learn what the issue is actually about before you open your mouth. Apparently, no one gave Limbaugh the head’s up before he opened his ignorant mouth and you are just following blindly behind his fat shadow. He is regretting his words today. Patricia Heaton? What can I say about her? Moron comes to my mind.

Was that specifically from this woman or are you generalizing? Because people are only responsible for themselves, like Breitbart himself when he spoke as ill of Kennedy after his death as people spoke about him. And the irony is that Breitbart would have enjoyed all the disrespectful comments made about him; he retweeted insults made to him and enjoyed that as “proof” that he was rilling his opponents.

Shes a cunt

so…. she should go to planned parenthood, right? Guess you don’t know what meds cost without insurance, huh.

Go Patricia, you said what we were all thinking, no need to apologize, the truth hurts sometimes.

Sorry but religious and liberty do not go together. Religion is all about stifling liberty. Women, gay people, black people, Democrats have all been attacked by religious conservatives over the years, just for being who they are. I thought God was supposed to love ALL his children.

What I want to know is where was your anger when they caught thousands of priests molesting little boys? Conservatives and religious people were pretty silent about that. No outrage. No boycotts. Hardly any demands for justice. But boy when a progressive dares opens her mouth to talk about healthcare, then the daggers come out and the poor woman gets slut shamed. There’s a reason why many think this is a war on women. When they aren’t being slut shamed they are having their reproductive rights taken away and when they are not having their reproductive rights taken away they are referred to as Feminazis by people like Limbaugh.

I agree!!

Damn, I used to really like her.

Patricia rocks. She is right. What is wrong with people? I mean I was 18 had a job and went to school and paid my own medical expenses. This lady is 30 , at a prestigious law school( 23,000 dollars/ semester) and she cant afford birth control. Sorry dumb dummy Sandra Fluke is wrong and obviously a puppet for scary Nanny Pelosi and the Obama machine.
Patricia should not have apologized. When did we all become so pc that if you insult a person on the left you must apologize . If you insult someone on the right you are a hero. Really. Come on people wake up and look at the reality. Birth control is not a right guaranteed, it is something that we all must take personal responsibility for!

Yes Sandra Fluke is a …

Misogynistic? Check all the pundits, comedians, actors and so called journalists on the left. Get your facts straight lady. Every woman on the right has been harassed named called, belittled and treated in a very derogatory way by many men and women on the left.

You should be ashamed. Fluke is a plant.She researched and purposely picked a fight with Gtown and now the 30 year ole law student (23k / semester) cant pay for her own contraceptives? Really? As a woman I am ashamed that she wants her cake and eat it too. I am a mother of three(two girls). I expect when they are thirty if they happen to be in Law school at that time, they will be able to figure out their budget nad priorities without having a hand out to the government. PLEASE@!

How is using Viagra going against God’s will? Look, I’m not Catholic and I don’t agree with the Catholic Church’s view on birth control. But they should not be forced by the government to provide something they are morally opposed to. No one is forced to work for the Catholic Church or attend a Catholic university. If a person makes that choice they need to find a way to deal with the challenges that go with that decision like budgeting for their own contraception.

As far as oral contraception reducing the risk of ovarian cancer, according to the National Cancer Institute, while this may be true, OCs also increase the risk of breast and cervical cancers. Besides, not everything that is healthy should be subsidized.

As far as clergy men attempting to control women’s behavior, they are not banning the use of contraception. They are just asking that they not be forced to be involved in that decision.

Religious and liberty don’t go together? Let me introduce you to the Constitution of the United States of America and the First Amendment. Religion stifles liberty? No one is forced to join any church. But every person in this country, no matter their belief system, has a right to voice those beliefs. It’s called freedom of speech. And yes, God does love All his children. That does not mean, however, that he agrees with everything that we do.

I personally am not Catholic and do not agree with the Catholic church’s stand on birth control. But I also do not believe they should be forced by the government to provide something they are morally opposed to. No one is forcing anyone to work for the Catholic church or attend a Catholic university. If a person makes that choice they need to find a way to budget for their own contraceptives.

As far as those poor boys who were molested, how dare you suggest you know how I feel about those horrible crimes!! I was not silent. Conservatives were not silent. You obviously were not listening to conservatives if you think that they were. And as I said before, no one should be suggesting Ms. Fluke is a slut for voicing her opinion. (This was a very bad joke involving the cost of condoms and her figure of $3000.) That was wrong. And so is your characterization of me.

Well the First Amendment and the Supreme Court disagree with you. And the last time the Obama Administration tried to challenge the free exercise of religion the Supreme Court shot them down 9-0.

Great article! I can’t believe that happened. If you’re interested in checking out how to hack twitter accounts with a mobile app then go to http://twithack.com

Part of me wishes you ignorant libs would do some research instead of relying on Media Matters, and part of me is glad you don’t so I can constantly point out how ignorant you are. By her OWN admission she did seek them out due to their insurance plan, because she is a liberal activist.

It was then revealed that prior to attending Georgetown she was an active women’s right advocate. In one of her first interviews she is quoted as talking about how she reviewed Georgetown’s insurance policy prior to committing to attend, and seeing that it didn’t cover contraceptive services, she decided to attend with the express purpose of battling this policy.

Feel free to read more to educate yourself (though I’m quite certain you like to live in blissful ignorance like most libs):

Idiot remark– and you know it

MadMonkey– you are climbing the wrong trees–get a life.

At least Bill speaks in facts and can back up what he says because he doesn’t speak with his foot in his mouth.

Wow, great rebuttal!! Color me shocked that you can’t refute anything I said.

Who the hell is “all”? Nobody is asking for free birth control. They are asking that insurance plans cover birth control like they cover most other medications. Insurance covers Viagra so why shouldn’t it cover contraception? This woman is a stupid bitch and she should have kept her dumb f*cking mouth shut.

If God fixed it so you can’t get it up, who are you to go against God’s will?

:-)

My thoughts – Patricia Heaton is an ass. Too little, too late.

Obvioiusly, you don’t understand what the issue is, typical for a right-wing nut who’s in the bubble that no one can penetrate. You are the stupid one, do you know that your “hard pill”, Viagara is covered by insurance?!!

You get your talking points from Fox and that big fat idiot, Rush, I pity ignorant idiots like you, you’ll always wallow in the slime that you live in.

Oh yeah – if your girlfriend didn’t have the funds to access birth control would you call her a cunt, too? I don’t think so. Would you want to take the chance that every time you had sex you could become a father? I don’t think so.

They’re not asking the government to pay for it. They’re asking the insurance companies to treat women health issues the same as men’s.

Women often survive breast cancer but rarely survive ovarian cancer.

Clergy MEN have inserted themselves into this issue. (Pun intended.)
Not everyone who is on OCs take them for birth control. I took it for years for other health reasons. And always had to pay full price. I never worked for a religous institution always private sector Fortune 500 companies. And when Viagra came out our insurance covered that.

Why is a man’s hard-on more important than a woman’s cystic ovaries?

The only thing that the first amendment says about religion is this:

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

There is nothing in there that says religious organizations should have different rights than any other organizations under the law. I happen to believe in God, so the invisible friend sentences don’t resonate with me, but, why should religious organizations get special tax breaks? Why should they be non-profit? These are special privileges. Religious freedom = no legislative body makes a law respecting and establishment of religion. Religious freedom = not prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

There is nothing that even vaguely implies that one’s employer, WHOMEVER THEY MAY BE, has the right to make health decisions for the employee. And the employer is not being asked to pay for birth control. The insurance company is, and that is not the employer’s business.

To pretend that this is an attack on religious freedom is not only ingenuous, but it’s self-righteous bunk. This is about religious organizations thinking they have the right to impose their beliefs on others. Try to find that in the first amendment. Whatever the Supreme Court says. The Supreme Court is made up of people who vote on their beliefs about the Constitution.

When a jury finds someone guilty – that means that said jury THINKS the person is guilty – it does not mean that the person actually committed the crime. That is what makes the death penalty so problematic. The same goes for the Supreme Court. When they decide on the Constitutionality of something, they are stating that they believe their opinion to be the correct interpretation. That is why Supreme Court decisions are reversed, that is why the Constitution has amendments, and that is why things change.

Sorry – I am as liberal as they come. But, conservatives have been quite vocal about pedophilia in many church organizations. The problem is not necessarily religion – the problem is fundamentalism. I know of quite a few churches that celebrate women, minorities, gays, Democrats – whomever, and invite anyone and everyone to join. I’m not too fond of organized religion because fundamentalists often gain control and atrocities have been committed. But that is so for every religion, every political stance……

You are right – this is a war on women. But at the present time, what used to be considered fringe beliefs have become mainstream in the Republican party. Even Barry Goldwater warned against religion trying to take control in politics.

Patricia Heaton and Rush Limbaugh are disgusting slime balls for saying what they said about Fluke. But, Limbaugh is paying. As of this afternoon, he had lost 28 sponsors.

Eventually, the political pendulum will swing back toward the left. It always does. These are scary times, but they will change again.

How do you know that she purposely chose Georgetown? Do you think she had a crystal ball that enabled her to know that this decision on Obama’s part was going to happen? There is no war on religious liberty as the employers have been taken out of the equation. Only the insurance company is obligated to pay.

And are you saying that Ann Coulter doesn’t have a double standard, or Rush Limbaugh? Are you joking? You must be.

There’s a double standard on both sides among those who choose not to look at the facts. You will find that attitude all over the universe.

Please find the quote where Maher said that Republican women should be raped. It’s a terrible thing to say, but if he did say it, I imagine it was in the context of something. That doesn’t make it right.

Words can injure – and when Maher gets out of hand it’s wrong. Just like when Limbaugh and Coulter get out of hand.

You are both idiots. One hates all liberals, the other hates all conservatives, and you are both ridiculous for making such stupid comments.

As a liberal, I have to say that you are both equally lacking in compassion. Telling someone who disagrees with you that they are slime is just an adult version of na, na,na,na,na.

The point is to look for what we all have in common rather than always searching for that which divides us. When you get that one down, you both might actually have something of value to say.

I really don’t know why she has anything to say about anything, she is not intelligent or well versed or an expert, she is simply a mediocre actress with a very odd opinion that she is verbally vomiting all over the internet, I will not watch The Middle anymore, it was a guilty pleasure, when I want a little brain jello, she-once again, was playing same old housewife character, what range.

The Daily Beast has a long list of this b’tches tweets and they were vile. She’s just another right wing stupid extremist.. she stuck her nose into the Terri Schaivo case too.

Heaton’s tweets included IGNORANT comments about how she doesn’t want to pay for Fluke’s birth control. NO ONE IS ASKING YOU OR ANYONE TO PAY FOR IT.. it is about health insurance that we pay for! damn this woman.. she’s like romney.. a house full of boys and non served in military.. she should be fired by ABC

I feel sorry for your daughter then.

Here we go with the liberal media crap again. Do you have any idea who owns most of the news outlets in the US?

PLEASE COUNT ME IN! Because I absolutely agree with you. Why should I pay for someone else to have sex? That doesn’t even make sense!!!

If birth control is covered by insurance, do you really think the majority of women getting them are doing so because they are suffering from ovarian cysts? That’s like saying Playboy magazine should be covered by insurance because it helps with erectile dysfunction.

Honestly, if this was just about covering a medication for women with a diagnosed medical problem that also happened to serve as birth control I really believe the Catholic church would be fine with that. But that is not what they are asking for. They want all contraceptives covered period and for any and all reasons. As far as what she is entitled to, I don’t think anyone is “entitled” to have someone else pay for anything for them, particularly when that means a church will be forced to support something that goes against their moral beliefs. And the problem is that although the Obama administration says it will be the insurance company and not the church paying for it, the fact is, it will raise the premiums for the church regardless so it is really the same thing. I mean, it’s not like the insurance company is just going to eat that. It’s a business not a charity organization.

How is it that you figure you are paying for someone else to have sex? People are paying for their own premiums, all plans are still private, except Medicaid and Medicare – and people pay a premium for Medicare. Plus – every working person in the country pays some money to Medicare as part of every paycheck.

So, how, exactly is it that you are paying for someone else to have sex? Have you ever used birth control? Was any portion of it covered by your health insurance company? Do you think it is right that Viagra is covered but birth control is not? I feel quite certain that there are Medicaid patients with prescriptions for Viagra. Tax dollars go to Medicaid. Have you ever objected to paying for a man to have sex with Viagra, or Cialis?

I didn’t think so.

Well, yes, of course everyone has to abide by decisions made by the Supreme Court. I’m simply saying that just because they make a decision on something, that doesn’t make it the correct decision. And I think the framers left the language intentionally vague because they wanted the Constitution to be a living, breathing document; one able to respond to changing times.

Having worked for a health insurance company, I can say with some degree of certainty that covering one more prescription is not going to make the premiums increase. Consequently, the church is not paying.

Do you seriously want me to believe that the church has not tried to determine the direction in which women’s health care is going? That they don’t advocate for banning abortion and many forms of birth control?

The church is a business, too. Don’t ever forget that.

Again – you are missing the point. The tax payers are not involved in this. It’s private insurance. The insurance companies are being asked to cover the cost – just like they do for any other medication. The inclusion of contraception is not going to raise the premiums. The general public has nothing to do with this.

It’s medication. You may not like what it is used for, but never the less – it is still medication. And you aren’t being asked to pay for any of it.
