For a while there, we thought people had finally stopped talking about conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh’s unnecessary verbal attack on Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke…and then we were brought back to reality. Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton revived discussion on the matter during a Wednesday conference at the 92nd Street Y in Manhattan, where she introduced Fluke and said the two of them both had the unique misfortune of being made fun of by Limbaugh.

“She and I have something in common. We both have been attacked by Rush Limbaugh. She was 30, I was 13,” Clinton said before Fluke entered the room to massive applause, according to BuzzFeed. What an awesome way to connect with someone, huh?

My friends, we must apologize for something which happened on this show Friday night. Ladies and gentlemen, I’m sorry.

Let me tell you very quickly what happened last Friday night. There was a new in list and new out list that was published in the newspaper. The writer said, “In, cute kid in the White House. Out, cute dog in the White House.” Could we show the cute dog in the White House who’s out, and they put up a picture of Chelsea Clinton back in the crew.

Chelsea needs to stop reading Al Franken. The facts are detailed, with Rush’s explanation and a second apology, of what happened at http://www.capcy.com

“And many of you people think that we did it on purpose to make a cheap comment on her appearance. And I’m terribly sorry. I don’t, look, that takes no talent whatsoever and I have a lot of talent. I don’t need to get laughs by commenting on people’s looks, especially a young child who’s done nothing wrong. I mean, she can’t control the way she looks. And we really, we do not do that on this kind of show.”-Rush Limbaugh t.v. November 1992
