Boehner calls Limbaugh remarks "inappropriate"
msnbc.com ^ | March 2, 2012 | Frank Thorp, Luke Russert and Michael O'Brien

Posted on 03/02/2012 9:31:17 AM PST by John W

House Speaker John Boehner distanced himself on Friday from Rush Limbaugh, calling the conservative radio host's words toward a women's rights advocate "inappropriate."

Amid a growing media firestorm over comments Wednesday by Limbaugh toward Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown Law student who testified before a Democratic panel on the use of contraception, Washington's top Republicans said through a spokesman that Limbaugh was wrong.

"The speaker obviously believes the use of those words was inappropriate, as is trying to raise money off the situation," Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said in a statement.

RE :”boner wont even publicly back Issa and Grassley on Fast & Furious, why would he stand with a mere talk show host ???

It would make no sense for Boner to defend Rush's jokes. But why is it his job to comment on them? Because Pelosi demanded it?

“I must say that he either needs to get back on the “Obama is an economic disaster” track and off the social issues...”

Those that don’t know from personal experience that ‘obama ia an economic disaster’ by now will never know.

In addition, it’s still Rush’s show, and he can discuss whatever he wants, when he wants.

Thank goodness someone we know is a woman has finally spoken up to condemn this profligate, obdurate floozy. The slut runs from one interview to another paining a giant mosaic of herself as an out-of-control pig — and the rest of us are supposed to be aggrieved that Rush besmirched her dignity? Give me a break.

The Kadarshian’s America has become a place unfit for decent human beings.

You know you’ve got a problem when the best and brightest guy your fellow party members could vote in as Speaker, turns out to be Boehner.

Calling John Boehner a pussy is redundant.

Calling him stupid insinuates a promotion of sorts.

If I was his dog I’d cough up a week’s worth of dogie biscuits to roll over on the guy.

If I were one of his kids I’d be looking to change my name and birth certificate.

If I were his wife, I’d be looking to change my address at least five times.

If I were a city leader where he lived, I’d be offering him incentives to move.

If I were a termite in his house, I’d warn the bed-bugs they have stiff competition, and hang a sign in Congress warning of the infestation.

Nope, I’m just a fellow member of his party, and a party affiliation change is looking mighty appealing right about now.

I’ll bet this guy could stand out in his front yard during a downpour and not get hit by a single drop of rain.

Remember people who want to be someone’s friend so bad that they take constant abuse? That’s the GOP.

EXACTLY! Third party will be in the making soon if it hasn't started already. It will take time to wean the puppies.

The majority of the time Rush does focus on economic issues but also includes the absurdity of the democrat party. This whore perfectly demonstrates the tactics of the left with the added bonus of showing just how obsessed they are with all things sexual. She absolutely epitomizes the left:

1. No personal responsibility
2. Freeloading off of society
3. Rabidly obsessed with all things shameful; including abortion, sexual perversions, and promiscuity.

She IS the democrat party a.k.a. America haters.

Only a slut would want other people to pay for her birth control pills.

I don’t want to work and have to pay for someone else’s birth control. I always paid for my own.

Rush is right, she is a slut and she should have been embarrassed to speak at a congressional hearing.

Only a true tramp would do that.

John Boehner is often “inappropriate” lately.

Besides being that rectal wart he must be compromised ( as most are in Congress)

Boehner commenting on the exercise of “FREE SPEECH” by a PRIVATE CITIZEN is INAPPROPRIATE!

Rush did a great job of making fools of the LIBTARDS with this little exercise back in 2007......... Limbaugh Letter Fetches $2.1 Million on eBay

I am sure Rush does not want to further embarrass Boner.

Dear Mr. Boehner:

1. Undo your belt a little bit. You don’t have to drop trou here or anything; just make some room for exploration.

2. With your right hand, reach down deep inside your pants. You may have to steady yourself with your left, by leaning on one of your liberal friends “across the aisle.” Try Barney Frank; he’ll be more than happy to give you a hand.

3. Find the pair that you presumably were born with. It might take some searching and rooting around in there, evidently.

4. Once Located, investigate until you satisfy yourself that you are indeed, MALE, and were BORN male, and the boyos are STILL down there.

5. And, once satisfied, finally, for once, ACT LIKE A FRIGGING MAN, you spineless piece of FOD...

Good lord, no wonder we’re getting our asses handed to us by the other side.

When the hell are we going to get someone in there who will FIGHT these liberals POSs on equal terms...

I am sorry, I am with Limbaugh on this. I wanted to tell that twitt in the hearing to PUT HER LEGS TOGETHER and save herself 3K!! I mean DAMN.... if you cannot accept or afford the consequences, DO NOT UNDERTAKE THE ACTIONS! For damn sure don’t FORCE your freaking neighbors to pay for your chlamydia treatments, condoms, birth control pills, morning after pills, and abortions! You are there to get an EDUCATION, not to get laid.

Damn.

Really Rush, is right, the girl came off as a complete slut, and she did it all by herself.

Disgustingly delusional.

“he completely negated his logical cogent point by suggesting she video tape her sexual encounters and post them for our enjoyment. I could only shake my head. “

He is only wandering into the theater of the absurd. It is something I often do when challenged on my anti-abortion position by Pro-Choicers. I simply agree with them that abortion is a legal right and I won’t be happy until the law extends up to the age of legal majority for any children. When they realize that they are arguing with someone that is extolling abortion of 17 year old children they usually slink away rather quickly.

Ms Fluke openly revealed her obviously promiscuous life style before the Congressional hearing and Rush’s characterization of her as a slut was perfectly justified. Rep. Boehner should get some backbone.
