Well guess what? I thought Rush's comments were funny. Not great taste but entertaining.

Maybe my sense of humor is biased by the likelihood that this episode will help destroy religious freedom and re-elect Obama.

I certainly don't want to include myself among those who chant the mantra "Anything that demeans women is not art!"

I think this apology is an admission that the "slut" affair was not Rush's best work. Remember when Rush introduced the term "feminazi?" I think he was better in those days. Read the comments of one woman who was kicked out of the "women's movement" over a disagreement about whether a song was "art":

And these feminists of the New Haven Women's Liberation Rock Band went into a rage, surrounded me, practically spat in my face, literally my back was to the wall. They're screaming in my face, "Art? Art? Nothing that demeans women can be art!" There it is. There it is! Right from the start. The fascism of the contemporary women's movement.

Well the libs at MSNBC certainly seemed to think it would.

My thoughts were that this was a funny distraction from the sad fact that congressional Republicans were being slaughtered by Democrats. Republicans have much bigger problems than Rush. That comment by the Santorum supporter about aspirin struck me as more problematic than this. Why is Rush relevant?

I agree with you. Rush should have known better than to wade into this territory. While I totally agree that taxpayers should not have to pay for someone else’s birth control, Rush stepped in it and opened himself up to this.

Not a good moment for Rush.

Obviously, we really do not know if this woman is a slut. After finding out what her agenda is, we could safely
qualify her as political “whore” for the left.

My upset the other day is that this has become an issue now. All the media is doing is hitting our candidates and trying to force them to take sides. Either thay have to agree she may be a slut, or denounce Rush.

I like Rush and have listened to him for years, but this was not a better moment for Rush in the climate we have now.

thats the problem, i just can see rush limbaughs words as demeaning to *women*...

if I, as an alcoholic, go before a CONgressional panel, mics and cameras and bright lights, and attempt to persuade them to force local bars, distilleries, and brewing companies, including every citizen who believe drinking to be against their 1A freedom of religion and freedom from government... to *invest* into my party fund, at the point of a government rifle, then Ive painted a target on my back...

tomorrow, some talkin head makes a reference to me that I, an admitted alcoholic, am a 'drunk'...should the population of self respecting alcoholics be enraged ??? or just those who desire a subsidy to continue their destructive behavior ???

chances are slim to none that rush was settin up for a monday show doubling down and change his terminolgy to *whore*...it wouldnt demean wimmin any more, and he would be king of the smackdown...but as i said, slim to none...
