A Statement from Rush (Rush offers apology to Slut!)
Rushlimbaugh.com ^ | Mar 3, 2012 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 03/03/2012 2:15:11 PM PST by TSgt

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.

The Left attacked not only his Livelihood but his Freedom of Speech. The truth is they attacked OUR Freedom of Speech when this whole planned “contraception” crap blossomed during the ABC Republican Debate in January.

Unless the November Election proves me wrong, there appears that there are more of them than us, so the America of our youth will be resigned to the dustbin of History.

Rent the Movie “They Live”. All will be explained.

Well, there are a ton of us out here to keep calling her what she is— A 30 year old LYING SLUT. And I’m not apologizing.

Rush did the wrong thing.

Once you admit you are in error the left smell that drop of blood and then the shark feeding frenzy REALLY begins. Now they can claim they made him apologize, ‘ We got him. Now we know what he`s like. He`s wrong, admitted it, will always be wrong. Time for him to go or we boycott and pressure advertisers ...etc,etc, ad infinitum. ‘

NEVER admit you`re wrong to the radical left.

Hey Rush, retire. You hurt Conservatives more than you help. Total CAVE. First his Oxycontin abuse and now this. Just go away and STFU. You’re an embarrassment.

Very well put.

We need to cut off the funding that allows these vermin to spend a life time training to become our masters.

Not good. The left will smell blood in the water now. Their attacks will increase exponentially.

"Are you trying to look retarded?"

Your obviously-Liberal-indoctrination and intelligencia syndrome are shown here easily, so it's not worth responding further.

Only YOU, the all-knowing intelligent, educated one, are able to think so "deeply".

Get a grip, Newbie.

Common Sense wasn't taught to you, obviously.

Rush...”it is absolutely absurd that during these very serious political times, we are discussing personal sexual recreational activities before members of Congress.”

That says it all and Rush should not have apologized.

Obama spoke...Rush yielded...sad.

LOL! As far as I’m concerned, Rush jumped the slut months ago when he didn’t call for stopping the looting and starting the prosecuting of the Big Banks and their national political lackeys.

Correct.

The issue is Hormonal Therapy versus Horny Therapy.

Classic Rush. He frames the issue, smacks Obama and apologizes not for the sentiment ... but for the word choice. Classic :-)

You may think this, and you may be technically correct, but that's not how it's going to be reported and not how it's going to be perceived by those who have always hated him.

Think Tet Offensive.

You sure don't know how to watch someones back do you...I would trust Rush to watch mine more than you...I am a Conservative and he didn't hurt me one bit, nor did he embarrass me. I am the only one that can embarrass myself...same goes for you...

Disappointed ... I was just getting started in some good feuds with the companies who threatened to drop him.

His wife probably talked sense into him. He’s now apologized but he opened the discussion.

We can take up the cause. She’s a nasty, lying woman with an agenda who’s probably never needed birth control in her life.

Show me the boyfriend(s)!

I wish he hadn’t apologized, or included a demand that Marh and the other liars and creeps apologize also
