Senate Bill 374 (a bill designed to repeal the abysmal "Louisiana Science Education Act", an Orwellian name if there ever was one) has been introduced by Karen Carter Peterson (D-5th) in the state Senate. It's about time.

A while ago, you might remember that the slug-like metabolism of the USS Fatcrack came to new life over the issue of one Sandra Fluke, a law student at Georgetown who actually dared to testify to the House of Representatives in favor of a rule concerning insurance coverage for contraceptives that the Obama administration favors. It turns out that Fats (as a possible result of his three failed marriages - just sayin') is rather indefatigable in his efforts at branding Fluke a really, really bad person even if he retracted some of the nastier language (read: "sl*t" and "pr*st*t*t*") that he used earlier when several of his show's sponsors took a walk. 

Keeping that in mind, here's a transcript of what Fluke actually said at that hearing. And considering the toxic cloud of nonsense that's blown up because of Fats' best (?) efforts, consider what both The Daily Show and The Colbert Report had to say on the subject (or just go to this page on Jezebel if you find the ads preceding the clips a bit, well, irritating).

BTW, if you thought that Fats actually learned anything about engaging in personal attacks over, say, actually coming up with a coherent rebuttal of Fluke's testimony, he didn't. And now he's gone shotgun as well.

(Like I said: three failed marriages. I also suppose he's privately working on #4. Consistency counts, I guess.)
