Rush should point out the similarities between Ms. Fluke’s ascension to prominence, and how Barack Obama was elevated to the White House.
There were lies about who Ms. Fluke was, until it was too late. She was not vetted by the media at all, in fact aided and abetted. She purported to be someone we now know she’s not. Her background, her age, her ideology, all were obscured to get her into position to damage the right.
It should not surprise us that Obama called her, they have so much in common.
I'm calling you out. Back it up with some facts unless you're just a blowhard. Give me the quotes from Fluke's statement.
I didn't just listen once. I've listened to the video again (with a vomit bag handy). And I've read the transcript more than once. And I'm not the only one on FR and in the media to point out that Fluke didn't address her own sex life and contraceptive needs.
Fluke said she was there to be the voice of other women, and she told the stories of six other women.
Now. I listened carefully. YOU listen and read carefully. Find the transcript and the video. You tell me where Fluke said that stuff about her sex life.
Or are you just a blowhard who doesn't need the facts?
Have they silenced you? That is the question.
Yes Rush apologized and that was probably a
mistake. Yet that is what civilized people do
and that too is probably a mistake when dealing
with ruthless liberals, for they see it as a sign
of weakness. Much like our situation in Afghanistan
with the koran.
I was going crazy yesterday trying to find evidence of some of the assertions people were making. I dont like to repeat stuff I haven't seen evidence of.
The thing about her age - people claiming she lied - no evidence. Just a blown fact in one NBC report.(as far as I have been able to determine)
Another article yesterday portrayed it as a secret that she was a law student and former president of Georgetown Law Students for Reproductive Justice...nonsense!
2nd and 3rd sentence of her testimony:
"My name is Sandra Fluke, and Im a third year student at Georgetown Law, a Jesuit school. Im also a past president of Georgetown Law Students for Reproductive Justice or LSRJ."
And although it is not true, Obama would use that fear to label Santorum as the man who would outlaw birth control, and I do not believe Santorum is nimble enough to fight that effectively.
And of course, when you get right down to it, just because you want something doesn't automatically mean that you are entitled to it.
I thought we went over all this....in kindergarten?! ;-)
Of everything I’ve read about this today, your post is the closest to how I felt yesterday when I heard of Rush’s backing down...
he, of all on our side, has always stood for NOT backing down...and on top of the loss of our Warrior, Andrew Breitbart this week, I feel we have been de-clawed, emasculated, intimidated and rendered ineffective.
We are screwed...
I saw Chris Wallace interview RS yesterday and Wallace drive that point that Dems are making, When RS said that the Blunt Amendment was a bill addressing Religious liberty not birth control or women specifically, Wallace struck back that RS is personally against the use of contraceptives. That put him on the defensive.
Newt does not have the same vulnerability on the issue and was able to maintain the offensive against David Gregory yesterday on the Blunt amendment.
“Much like our situation in Afghanistan
with the koran.”
I have several theories as to what Rush is up to. Since he is smarter than congresscritters and lefty “poster people” I still believe he knows exactly what he’s doing. His apology will not calm the left and will never be enough for them.
Will you be listening today to Rush? Maybe his will be a brilliant chess move you and I haven’t conceived...don’t give up, if Rush fails we can lick our wounds a little but then you and I will have to be smarter and work harder
Am listening as I post....
maybe there is a “grand plan” but I dunno...
it always seems to play out this way on our side...
am sick of it.
The point is to tear him down and embarrass conservatives.
