“Over and over he kept saying she wanted to be paid for having sex.”
She does. She wants Congress to make it mandatory for everyone to pay for birth control for those who have sex. If she could convince someone to have sex with her, she would be included.
I've said before...Rush was technically correct. But it can't be disputed that the way he made his point was what became the national topic of conversation rather than who this woman really is, and her real agenda.
I'm a fan and thought he handled the first hour today very well. He talked about Fluke, but stayed focused on the fact that she is a well-known feminist activist anti-Catholic bigot with a very specific leftist agenda...and hardly just a “college student”.
Rush advertiser boycotts have never gone away. Lurk at DU...about once a week someone is quoting some Media Matters nonsense and they pass a Rush advertisers boycott list back and forth...and it never works. But his time, Rush handed them a neatly packaged, hand delivered gift.
This is fixable...and Rush will fix it. But it was unnecessary, and during a presidential primary...not helpful.
