Ron Paul became the latest presidential hopeful to weight in on controversial and incendiary language used by radio commentator Rush Limbaugh to describe a college student, telling reporters Friday the remarks were in poor taste.
"It sounded a little crude the way it came across to me," Paul said. "I don't know why it has to be such a political football like this, so you have to ask him about his crudeness."

A Statement from Rush
March 03, 2012
For over 20 years, I have illustrated the absurd with absurdity, three hours a day, five days a week. In this instance, I chose the wrong words in my analogy of the situation. I did not mean a personal attack on Ms. Fluke.
I think it is absolutely absurd that during these very serious political times, we are discussing personal sexual recreational activities before members of Congress. I personally do not agree that American citizens should pay for these social activities. What happened to personal responsibility and accountability? Where do we draw the line? If this is accepted as the norm, what will follow? Will we be debating if taxpayers should pay for new sneakers for all students that are interested in running to keep fit? In my monologue, I posited that it is not our business whatsoever to know what is going on in anyone’s bedroom nor do I think it is a topic that should reach a Presidential level.
My choice of words was not the best, and in the attempt to be humorous, I created a national stir. I sincerely apologize to Ms. Fluke for the insulting word choices.
“Ron Paul goes along with Rick and Mittens”
Ah yes. Ron Paul has proven to be Mitts buttboy in this election. They are holding hands. How sweet.
Ron Paul goes along with Rick and Mittens.
And now Newt goes along with the three. Newt is the only one standing in it.
Never agree with a leftist or the their media enablers. This is all manufactured outrage. They saw an opportunity to attack their arch nemesis and are going to pursue it as far as they can.
Note they have no problem with Conservatives, and especially Conservative women, being called any number of grossly more offensive words, and even suggesting rape and murder for kicks.
Its should be no surprise that the left’s idol, Saul Alinsky, dedicated his book to the Father of Lies.
What is being ignored here is that every year now major cities have a celebratory “slut walk” in which this type of lewd undressing is celebrated, while others object to being referred to as such yet both vote Liberal.
And one out of four, at least, have an STD requiring more healthcare. Meanwhile in the slow but increasing meltdown of America, which used to be called a nation under God, the laws of God are looking better and wiser all the time.
He could have added that, as said, some liberals celebrate dressing as a “slut” (annual “slut walks” in US cities), but he as wrong to assume she was like some other liberals, or that she is like the vast majority of college students (80% fornicators), and that instead she was advocating contraception for those who need it for health reasons.
There is no way to sugarcoat sin.
The only healthy/safe sex is IN marriage.
Wow this is shocking....
It is infuriating to me that this skank Rat operative wants to force the taxpayers to subsidize her lifestyle choices. It is disappointing that no one on the right is standing up to her and her ilk, and not standing up for Rush.
