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."
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?

AusMartin: 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 ...
Maybe access to advocates has to be massively subsidized before the price lowers to "free".
In other words, we need a giant pool of people who are also selling an hour of their time. Maybe we need an individual mandate to require every American to sell an hour of their time, whether they want to or not. They can sell it on specially made, heavily regulated government auction websites. That will somehow lower the cost of everyone's time, to the point where they can give it away for free!
Call your Senator, we need to get working on this right now. I'll start drafting the first 1000 pages of the bill, if I can get some volunteers to write the other few 1000 page segments...

Now that's not legal in the US, and such activities will land one in the Hot Place. Or so one is told.

How much water boarding can I administer in an hour?

Tim Sweeney: 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.

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. · 14 minutes ago

True, but the fun part will be watching how feminist Fluke rationalizes her revealing expose in a magazine that caters to misogyny and how enthusiastically Feminists will follow along to defend that rationalization.

ok, whoops, I read that title and thought something totally different. In that instance, she would have to be the one to pay me. I suppose the same goes for any context.

I may bid on this 'opportunity'. I would tell her it is my hour and she has to do whatever I ask as a gentleman then I would hand her a stack of all the columns Ann Coulter has written for the past six months and have the lovely and talented Ms. Fluke read them out loud while I sip a glass of fine red wine.
And then of course I would write a post for Ricochet about the whole 'experience'.
What the heck is an enterprising bachelor going to do with $5 anyway.

Perhaps Tacky, save appropriate.

Rats, it is already up to $110.00. I guess Sandra hasn't phoned Mom in a while now that she is a celebritypunditofjustice so this is what Mrs. Fluke has to do to get an update from her daughter.
Re: How Much Would You Pay for 1 Hour With Sandra Fluke?
As of a moment ago, biddingforgood.com pegs an hour with Sandra on Skype at a cool $110.
I think the online auction site is missing a much larger market: guaranteed Fluke-free time.
After all, while Sandra can sell an hour of her time only once, she can dispense the soothing balm of guaranteed Fluke-free time to hundreds, thousands, heck...millions of traumatized Catholics and other First Amendment supporters simultaneously.
How much would you pay not to spend an hour with Sandra Fluke; read another article about her lonely victimization at the hands of a cruel Catholic university establishment; see her yet again on television at some contrived photo op? I, for one, would gladly match the current $110 bid.
Now you might argue that there is no way for Fluke to compel those lacking a Fluke-free guarantee to spend time with the activist. You would be wrong. While mandatory broccoli may be off the legislative menu for now, reeducation at the hands of Ms. Sandy certainly seems like a diktat that Obamacare regulation writers could accomplish before 2014.
And can there any doubt that Chief Justice Roberts would agree that compulsory Fluke time was taxing?

Re: How Much Would You Pay for 1 Hour With Sandra Fluke?
Let's be fair - given the amount she apparently spends a year on birth control, 110 bucks probably doesn't even make it through a Fluke weekend.

I'd pay her a good amount to be silent for an hour.

That's pretty cheap as far as Flukes go. I don't know the market for such things, but I've read that Elliott Spitzer had to pay a lot more per hour.

Well Wilber forge, I could just read the bible out loud and command her attention for a faith healing healing at the end with the anticipation that her head would spin around and vomit pea soup like the exorcist. I do stuff like this, it cures boredom.

Obama: Nobel Peace Prize for doing nothing.
Fluke: Time person of the year of demanding that we pay for her contraceptives.
The downward trajectory remains on track.
