The Dems May Have Miscalculated on Ms. Fluke
Powerline ^ | March 9, 2012 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 03/10/2012 8:29:16 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

The Democrats thought they had a great distraction from the economic issues that bedevil most Americans in the form of 30-year-old activist Sandra Fluke. Rush Limbaugh foolishly (as he later acknowledged) called her a “slut” and a “prostitute” in the course of ridiculing, entirely properly, her very silly claim that the federal government should force all employers to pay for their female employees’ contraception–I never did figure out whether the plan extended to buying male employees condoms and vasectomies–regardless of whether either the employers or employees prefer such benefits to cash compensation. Ms. Fluke’s theory, really, was so stupid as to be a ripe target for ridicule.

The Democrats went crazy in the aftermath of Rush’s error, posturing themselves as the upholders of civility. Barack Obama got into the act, calling Ms. Fluke to congratulate her on her demand for free goods and services, and to ask how her delicate psyche was a holding up. Obama later explained that he did it for his daughters, Sasha and Malia, whom he would never want to hear coarse language.

Well. There was a basic problem with the Democrats’ strategy; namely, that pretty much everyone knows that when a Democrat talks about a Republican woman, “slut” or “prostitute” would be considered a compliment. So it was no surprise when conservatives pointed out that Bill Maher, who contributed $1 million to Obama’s re-election campaign, has called Sarah Palin a “c***” and a “dumb t***,” along with other, sometimes worse, epithets. When asked about Maher’s disgusting attacks, President’s Obama’s press secretary explained that Obama is not a speech policeman. So evidently Sasha and Malia will have to hear some crude talk after all–from Democrats, anyway.

Of course, Bill Maher is just one of many. Democrats, in general, are cruder and more vitriolic than Republicans. So it didn’t take more than 24 hours or so for Greta van Susteren to point out that someone named Louis C.K.–it is highly unlikely that you have heard of him–was scheduled to host the 68th Annual Radio & Television Congressional Correspondents Dinner on June 8. Those correspondents, of course, are some of the very people who had been excoriating Limbaugh for calling Ms. Fluke a “slut.” CNN’s Jay McMichael headed the committee that was in charge of the program:

“We’re very excited about having Louis C.K. at the dinner,” said Jay McMichael of CNN, who chairs the RTCA’s executive committee. “This is an evening you’ll want to experience. We’re shaking things up, showcasing the unexpected, and delivering lots of laughs.”

Lots of laughs, indeed: Mr. C.K., it turns out, is foul-mouthed even for a Democrat. Ms. van Susteren collected some of his comments about Sarah Palin. Feel free to skip ahead if you have a weak stomach or are easily offended:

Louis C.K. says of Palin: “her f*** retard making c***” and “the baby that just came out of her f**** disgusting c***.”

To Palin: just “stick your t** in its mouth and shut up.”

And here is more: ”…her f***** retard making c****”.

Need more to convince you? Here is what he says on twitter:

“I want to rub my father’s c*** all over Sarah Palin’s fat t***”

By the way, there is more, lots more.

That, however, is plenty. Even for a liberal, Mr. C.K. is disgusting.

So tonight Glenn Reynolds reported that the Congressional Correspondents (Democrats all, no doubt) have decided to forgo the pleasure of hearing Sarah Palin’s c*** and t*** ridiculed, along with her young son–how funny is that!–and have discreetly canceled Mr. C.K.’s appearance.

This civility thing could be tough on the Democrats. What are they going to do for entertainment?

Good thing they have 98.6% of the press, Hollywood, academia, the nutroots, and more to cover for them.

Fluke like most liberals is a leech upon society.

This woman was claiming to be spending $3000 a year on birth control if I read the thing properly. I don’t really see how that’s possible myself.

I think part of the reason for why the liberals weren’t as successful is two reasons.

1. Conservaatives are for more ready to fight liberals, and be as dirty as liberals to do it.

2. The liberal agenda is unquestionably unmasked and people don’t like it. It’s harder to garner support when you hate what it is you are supporting.

President Obama called patriotic men, women, and children “tea baggers” (a term used by homosexuals to describe a “bag” on chin activity).

There is no civility from the angry red diaper doper baby in the White House.

$3000 in 3 years.

$1000 a year.

If her college raised tuition $500 a semester, she’d cough it up without crying before Congress begging them to make taxypayers pay for it.

SNL just opened their show with a take on Rush Limbaugh calling Ms. Schmuck a slut. Then he went through a list of new sponsors which were supposedly not good sponsors and it was not funny at all. I am sure Hulu will have it up on their website by tomorrow.

It really does appear that Rush making this an issue is hurting the Rats more than it hurt him. We have found out that the slut is a full out Commie activist, put heat on Obummer for taking Maher’s donation after his Pius speech on decorum, has leftist water carriers like Kristen Powers turning against the Regime over this and this so called “comics comic” CK looking like a dirtbag and having to back out from performing for these dopes. All and all, this could be thought to be some well orchestrated plan by Rush it is turning out so well.

I think it was 3 grand total for the 3 years...that's $1000 a year....about 40 condoms a week.......no wonder she looks ridden hard and put away wet.

Typical dumb Fluke ...could have got a month's supply of pills from Walmart for about $9.00

And Dave Letterman talked about Palin’s “slutty stewardess outfit” - now there’s somebody ripe for a sponsor boycott a la Limbaugh.....

They really didn’t want Rush to attack this so soon. It will not be a player for the court or the election. Miss Fluck has been vetted. Give Rush credit for knocking this pelosi-dunn crap to the curb.

I watched it. It was funny. Keep in mind that SNL deals with absurdity as well.

Rush does it again. If he would not have called Fluck a “slut,” what should have been a minor story turned into an attack to get Rush that backfired and shown the “light of truth” on the Democrats and their foul mouth friends. When are they going to learn you DON’T mess with Rush Limbaugh?
