He did. I like Rush but he goes too far sometimes. Making fun of peoples names and physical appearance is just juvenile and counter productive for our side. But he is an entertainer and that gives him license.
Sandra Fluke was wanting something on the order of 3,000 condoms per year and wanted others to pay for her to have sex.
That was the background of the slut/prostitute comment.
She was an angry sex positive activist who targeted a Catholic university. She went there knowing that they differed on sexual politics. She was not caught “unaware” or “unable to pay” (since she subsequently toured Europe on vacation with her boyfriend).
Little to apologize for when you are pointing out that a hard left liberal is LYING to members of Congress and the public.
“Making fun of peoples’ names and physical appearance is just...counterproductive for our side.”
Sorry, but I disagree. I have seen the lunatic fringe become the ruling class in my lifetime, and making fun of people has been one of their most effective weapons—scurrilous though it may be.
“But he is an entertainer and that gives him license.”
Yes, that’s true. That’s why I think the appropriate response when leftards call his remarks “infamous” is a facepalm and a broad, long-suffering “FU, you ignorant POS,” with strong emphasis on the first “you” and the last word of the sentence.
I have said much worse about that wanton harlot Fluke. But then, I’m not Limbaugh, so who cares?
Did you hear his commentary in context or just hear what people said he said? Sandra Fluke, a democrat operative, ignoring that the law school she was attending provides FREE CONDOMS at the student health clinic, testified before Congress that she was going bankrupt having to pay for her birth control and condoms every month. Rush made the comment that anyone who testifies to being threatened with bankruptcy by buying so many condoms because she is having so much sex must be a slut! The only other people who could go through so many are prostitutes. I think he was making a cogent point. Why should the government fund her sexual activity? The liberal press conflated his point about Sandra Fluke's exaggerated testimony into him making a statement about EVERY woman who uses birth control being a "slut," thus precipitating a boycott based on that.
