Sandra Fluke said Rush Limbaugh has not called her personally to apologize for referring to her as a slut and a prostitute last week.
Fluke, a Georgetown law student who testified last month to Democrats about the new contraception mandate in the healthcare reform law, also said she wouldnt welcome a personal call from Limbaugh.
No [he has not called], she said during a Monday appearance on The View.
And let me be clear that I think his statements on the air have been personal enough about me so I'd rather not have a personal phone call from him, she said.
Limbaugh issued a statement over the weekend apologizing for using inappropriate language in his remarks about Fluke and the contraception mandate.
"For over 20 years, I have illustrated the absurd with absurdity, three hours a day, five days a week," Limbaugh said in his statement. "In this instance, I chose the wrong words in my analogy of the situation. I did not mean a personal attack on Ms. Fluke."
But Fluke said she doubted Limbaughs sincerity given the pressure he is facing from advertisers.
Especially when that statement was issued when he's under significant pressure from his sponsors who have begun to pull their support from his show, she noted.

Rush should offer to pay for her to be sterilized (tubes tied). Then all her dreams would come true and it wouldn’t cost her a thing.

A. What information do you have about her sex life, as opposed to her advocacy position?
B. In your day, what did you call men who were promiscuous, as you assume she is?
I think Rush really stepped in it with this one. He behaved in an utterly ungentlemanly manner, and I think he’s receiving the just desserts for doing so.
I disagree with the young lady on the issue, but must admit she did an amazing judo move on Rush and the GOP. Managed to convert the issue from one of religious freedom to one of whether the Pope will take your Pill away.

I’m guessing Rush doesn’t have time to troll the Georgetown men’s latrines looking for her number as easy as may be to find there.

I have only heard Congressional witnesses testify to the Congressional Record. In fact what this FLUKE did was give a speech to DEMOCRAPS, who probably had prepared the tripe that they usually preach as part of their very essence, namely practicing the politics of FEAR, DIVISION, and HATRED.
That is the primary reason that CZAR B.O. is in the White House; namely to help the DEMOCRAPS brand any objector to their Socialist Initiatives as RACIST! BS!

No [he has not called], she said during a Monday appearance on The View. She should disclose her phone number.
I'll bet lots of folks will call her if that's what she wants.
Hell, if I was drunk and lonely in Georgetown I might even give her a ring.

“She should disclose her phone number.”
It’s probably already publicly available on any number of bathroom walls.
To: Free ThinkerNY
Rush has no excuse here as he can get her phone number from just about any male student at Georgetown.

funny no boyfriends have crawled out of the woodwork to show support for their former girlfriend. Maybe there are no ‘boy’friends? and if there are no 'boys' then the whole Gimme Birth Control thing is even more of a ruse for what has become the deliberate and systematic invasion of institutions of Faith - first infiltrating the priesthood, then invading churches and interrupting services, and now invading and distrupting Faith-based educational institutions.

She’s gonna milk this for everything she can.She’s a Demorat operative set up because The Bamites realized that women hate him.
Now they can make Sandra into a victim at the hands of a big, bad Republican.

There is only one way this will end. Quit giving it so much attention, then it dies from boredom from overkill, then release those Breitbart tapes and start talking about that.

That's what I expected.
No matter what Rush says, he'll not be "contrite enough" and the attacks will go on and on.
The media will happily keep anything alive that can block out the real newsworthy issues.
