President invokes his daughters in response to Limbaugh controversy
the hill ^ | 3/6/12 | Jonathan Easley

President Obama said he called Sandra Fluke, the college student at the center of the Rush Limbaugh controversy, after thinking about how his own daughters would have handled the criticism.

“I thought about Malia and Sasha,” Obama said at a press conference Tuesday. “And one of the things I want them … to be able to do is speak their minds in a civil and thoughtful way, and I don’t want them attacked or called horrible names they’re being good citizens.”

“I wanted Sandra to know that her parents ought to be proud of her,” Obama continued.

Last week, Limbaugh called Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute" on his radio show after the Georgetown student testified in support of Obama's contraception mandate.

Limbaugh issued a statement on Saturday apologizing for using those terms and has lost a steady stream advertisers over the remarks.

If we had free speech in this White House someone would have asked that question. Yet we do not and no way will any of them come near it!

Gender gap.

Pollsters told Dems only way Zero can win again is young female voters / soccer moms.

That’s what this is all about. That and targeting Rush after Beck. Shut up dissenting voices.

Still no word from Fluke’s parents. Even the lady who won the Power Ball came forward.

What a LIAR! Obama was in attendance at the White House Press Correspondents’ Dinner when Wanda Skyes "hoped" that Rush's "kidneys would fail". Obama laughed and never denounced Wanda's crude remarks.

Sandra Fluke admitted openly, to a congressional committee, that she is openly and extremely promiscuous.

The definition of slut is: “A person, particulalry a woman, considered to be sexually promiscuous.”

So, by her own admission and testimnony she meets the definition.

Perhaps Rush could have been more circumspect or polite in his dialog...but this woman is being used...willingly...to try and change the very fabric of both our freedoms and our mores. She is, wittingly or unwittingly, an enemy to the very fabric of our free society. To speak directly to such is not a crime, and should not be shyed away from.

I do not believe Rush owed an apology. He should simply have explained it in these very direct and factual terms and indicated that if Sandra does not want to be considered by others to be the very deifinition of a slut, then perhaps she should not act like one and openly admit to being that very thing, before congress no less.

Words have meaning. Actions have consequences.

When I was youung, this type of behavior was considered very wrong and looked down upon. It led to broken families and bastard children who had one or two strikes against them (and even today, if you look at the statistics, the same holds true) from the get go. Such behavior was called the wrong it is and society sought to limit it as a result.

Now today, the people engaged in such behavior not only do not want it called wrong, they want to be held up as an example of courage to do what they “feel”. And President’s (at least this one) points to it and lauds it and disparages those who call it what it really is.

Well, it turns our Miss Fluke is an activist on these matters. She considers and calls herself a, “reproductive rights activists,” whatever that means...though it is clear that she is not in favor or advocating reproduction at all...but the opposite. It also turns out that she advocates for the public, meaning all of us taxpayers, to be put on the lamb to pay for all gender change operations that anyone desire too. But that part of her agenda isn’t being discussed...yet.

...but it’s okay if I laugh hysterically when Wanda Sykes says...
“Rush Limbaugh, I hope the country fails, I hope his kidneys fail, how ‘bout that? Needs a little waterboarding, that’s what he needs”.

“I thought about Malia and Sasha,”

They are both older than Muhammad's second wife, Aisha.

Muhammad married her when she was only 6 or 7 years of age.
But, being a muslim gentleman, he didn't consumate the marriage until she turned 9 years old.

Back in those days the government wasn't providing free birth control either.

He doesn’t realize that BM called his Daughters, Wife, Mother and
Grandmothers the C—Word already.
For the million dollars he would answer if BM called him a C—word!

“I wanted Sandra to know that her parents ought to be proud of her,” Obama continued.

What is there to be proud of? That is lied before congress when she said she spent $3000 a year on birth control? Or that she is a sex addict that had to spend that much?

The country is finished if someone like this is role model.

Any apology from Obama about calling folks Teabaggers? Does anyone have a reference for when he did this? I wonder if his daughters know what a Teabagger is.

I don’t have children, but when I have them and the day that my children grow up, I will tell them to grow up to be more like Laura Ingraham......... a dignified and classy person, even when she was called a slut by that ignorant Ed Schultz, she maintain her compusture and responded to him with class and dignity.....

I want children to respect themselve by not sleeping around......

so Obama, you are an idiot.... tell your daughters to admire women who sleep around and have no dignity or respect for themselves....... and I will tell my daughters the opposite......

And who prevented Sandra Fluke from saying anything?

The real effort is to silence Limbaugh. The leftists are masters of misdirection.

Sandra Fluke admitted openly, to a congressional committee, that she is openly and extremely promiscuous. .

If so, I missed it. Perhaps you have a direct quote.

Hey USS Alaska - Don't know if you served on the Alaska, but I have a few Great Pics of her in dry dock and other places taken by a friend of mine circa 1988. Little off topic, but shows some of the POWER this Great Nation still has. :-) Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
