Sandra Fluke, famous advocate for government-subsidized birth control, is auctioning off one hour of her time to the highest bidder for an online "strategy session."

I kid you not. According to the site Bidding for Good, "Sandra Fluke will help you harness the power of activism and/or advocacy with this strategy session. You bring the expertise on your issue, and Sandra will bring her sharp strategic mind and national experience."

More details here.

This week, Ms. Fluke was nominated as a potential TIME magazine person of the year. So, be warned, her price may soon be going up. I must ask, Ric-readers. How much would you pay for 1 hour with Sandra Fluke?

Does she promise to deliver her lame one-liners and then mug for the camera?

I am sure I could throw down at least a week's worth of male un-lubricated contraceptive products. 

Isn't that her preferred currency?

Given the subject matter she achieved fame for, this sentence can be taken the wrong way.

You could pay Me the Powerball for 1 hr with her.

Given the attendance figures at her rallies, I'd rather just go to one of those and save the money. That is, if I was a statist.

So, what your saying is... Rush was right. She can be purchased by the hour...

And that goes with BlueAnt's innuendo too.

Troy Senik, Ed.

Ask yourself which is worse:

-- That one moron is going to voluntarily pay for one hour with Sandra Fluke?

-- That federal law is about to coerce her employers into paying for a wide variety of morons to spend an hour with Sandra Fluke?

Ouch. My bet is that once this scheme fails and once the dreams of being a working lawyer fade away Fluke does what any attention-seeking and enterprising girl has done when her 15 minutes of fame are up-sell her story and pose for Playboy.

My "issue" on which I'd need her to "harness the power of my activism" is that I find it nutso that I now have to insure myself against the economic catastrophe of having to buy a two-dollar rubber.

"Hey baby, I'd like to harness your advocacy."

Do we have to take her to dinner first?

By phone or Skype? I wouldn't even pay the charges it would take to make the call.

Any joke I make would be moot at this point.

How much do I got?  You just can't put a price tag on spending some quality time with the woman who made headlines trying to offload the heavy burden of contraceptives off the backs of hardworking women everywhere in the face of 10% unemployment and an uncontrolled federal balance sheet among a world backdrop of a European "crisis" every other week and Middle Eastern chaos.  Time PotY?  Hell yeah.  I am so not joking.  

God, I love my girl, Sandra!  I miss that avatar.  Here's something to tide you folks over while I mull putting it back on.

I believe you JUST answered the question in a "hard" dollar way: Current issue price of Playboy (circa 2013 Sandra Fluke issue) would be the correct answer.

Hang on - if she wants free access to birth-control, why can't we have free access to the advocate of free access to birth-control?

Capitalism for me but not for thee ...

She couldn't pay me enough to meet with her for one hour.

If I'm going to hang out with people who made a political career out of defying the Catholic Church to further their own sexuality, I'd rather build a time machine so I can visit Henry VIII.
