Cenk interviews Sandra Fluke, the woman Congress was afraid to let testify about access to contraception

Cenk talks to Sandra Fluke, the Georgetown University law student who was scheduled to testify before Congress about access to contraception, then bumped in lieu of…five men. Fluke tells the story of her friend who had to have an ovary removed because she was not able to get medically necessary birth control that could have shrunk her ovarian cysts.

“So, women lose their ovaries and I guess Rick Santorum throws a party, ’cause he doesn’t give a damn?” Cenk says. “This is really a women’s health issue. Who would know better, your doctor or Rick Santorum?”

Fluke will testify this Thursday in a hearing called by Rep. Nancy Pelosi, though Republicans have vowed to block televised coverage of the hearing.
