Obama phones woman called 'slut' by Limbaugh
Politico ^ | 3/2/12 | JENNIFER EPSTEIN

Posted on 03/02/2012 11:39:13 AM PST by ColdOne

The young woman who was called a "slut" by Rush Limbaugh got a call Friday from President Obama who voiced support for her pro-birth control advocacy.

"He encouraged me and supported me and thanked me for speaking out about the concerns of American women," Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke said on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports." She got the call from Obama while in a green room waiting to appear on the show.

"What was really personal for me was that he said to tell my parents that they should be proud and that meant a lot because Rush Limbaugh questioned whether or not my family would be proud of me," Fluke said. "So I just appreciated that very much."

Soon after she appeared on TV, Fluke also thanked Obama on her Twitter account. "Thank you @BARACKOBAMA for your call and words of support. It means so much to me and millions of women! #WeWillNotBeSilenced," she wrote.

There is one thing Rush and I have in common: We try to be very careful with our use of words and will often use offensive words that, nonetheless, are dictionary descriptions of what we mean. He says, over and over, that words have meaning.

So he simply pulled the words right out of the dictionary. I mean LITERALLY. The words she used to define herself fit the definition of “slut” and part of that definition is “prostitute”. Now, if all her sex was with the same man, that might be a bit different.

The MSM is upset about a truth telling.

True, the President of the U.S. calls a girl who was insulted by a radio talkshow host. Screw Iran and Israel, this is big stuff!

I'd say more than likely it was set up to act as a diversion to Zippo’s birth cert. being a forgery.

Feh...your posts begs the question, "what does a Conservative call a slut"?

Conservatives I know call a spade a spade and don't sugar coat the truth with clever little euphemisms.

THAT is what the LEFT does.

I cannot imagine how mortified I would be if this woman was my daughter. I would have to disown her just to be able to show my face. OMG!

That a good comeback by Rush. Out of the mouths of......, shall we know them. Her fault.

Wonder when she tries to go to sleep, she is thinking Oh CHIT, what have I done? NO, she would have to have a conscience.

Larry Sinclair’s backseat homo drug buddy calls the slut.

How fitting.

Common! Get with the program!

This is the new Amerika, where women like her are worshiped and admired. That's why gradeschoolers are dressing up like whores these days, and having sex before they reach the 6th grade.

Dude, America is so far gone, there is not hope that it will every come back. It will have to burn and be reborn from the ashes.

Yup, women with no judeo-christian morals who flaunt their sexuality are revered and women who want to be mothers and put their kids first are spat upon and treated like shit. This is the culture war that has existed for quite some time, and you’re right, it’ll take a burning down and starting over to fix.

Did he read her his poem “Pop”, as one freak to another?

*******************

Pop

Sitting in his seat, a seat broad and broken
In, sprinkled with ashes,
Pop switches channels, takes another
Shot of Seagrams, neat, and asks
What to do with me, a green young man
Who fails to consider the
Flim and flam of the world, since
Things have been easy for me;
I stare hard at his face, a stare
That deflects off his brow;
I’m sure he’s unaware of his
Dark, watery eyes, that
Glance in different directions,
And his slow, unwelcome twitches,
Fail to pass.
I listen, nod,
Listen, open, till I cling to his pale,
Beige T-shirt, yelling,
Yelling in his ears, that hang
With heavy lobes, but he’s still telling
His joke, so I ask why
He’s so unhappy, to which he replies . . .
But I don’t care anymore, cause
He took too damn long, and from
Under my seat, I pull out the
Mirror I’ve been saving; I’m laughing,
Laughing loud, the blood rushing from his face
To mine, as he grows small,
A spot in my brain, something
That may be squeezed out, like a
Watermelon seed between
Two fingers.
Pop takes another shot, neat,
Points out the same amber
Stain on his shorts that I’ve got on mine and
Makes me smell his smell, coming
From me; he switches channels, recites an old poem
He wrote before his mother died,
Stands, shouts, and asks
For a hug, as I shink, my
Arms barely reaching around
His thick, oily neck, and his broad back; ‘cause
I see my face, framed within
Pop’s black-framed glasses
And know he’s laughing too.

— Barack Obama

I pity the young who still have to make a life for themselves in this “new and liberated” world the Marxist/Secular/Humanists are creating.

The frog has been boiling so long now, that there are hardly even any bones left.

I just heard this woman’s name pronounced on the top of the hour news. It’s pronounced fluk and rhymes with luck, and that’s no fluke!
