Despite an outcry that has crossed political lines, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh did not back down Friday from his criticism of a Georgetown student who advocated for the availability of birth control at a recent hearing before congressional Democrats.
During his latest show, he mocked the fact that Sandra Fluke received a phone call from President Barack Obama, insisting that given her testimony about birth control, she should "disconnect the phone. I'd go into hiding and hope the media didn't find me."
Limbaugh also denied he was opposed to birth control, according to a transcript of his show. “This is about expanding the reach and power of government into your womb, if you're a woman. This is about the Democrat Party wanting more and more control over you. What was early feminism all about? Emancipation, individuality, freedom, liberation, all of these things. Now here comes Danica Patrick out and she says, "I'm perfectly comfortable letting the government make my health decisions for me." Well, folks, I'm gonna tell you: Right there, that's the death and the end of feminism.”

The real info about this “lady” needs to be dug up and put all over the net. You can be sure it won’t be pretty starting with the lies about costs, whether she is a lesbian and lied about even thinking that she needs bc, her age, whether she even is a real student and how long she went to school there, if there really is a friend who is missing an ovary, if someone paid her to do this and the list goes on. The war needs to be waged against lies by finding out and exposing truths.
As it turns out, she’s not just any old twenty-something coed. She’s a thirty year old activist who enrolled at Georgetown because of their policy not to provide free contraception. Jammie Wearing Fools has the details.
For me the interesting part of the story is the ever-evolving “coed”. I put that in quotes because in the beginning she was described as a Georgetown law student. It was then revealed that prior to attending Georgetown she was an active women’s right advocate. In one of her first interviews she is quoted as talking about how she reviewed Georgetown’s insurance policy prior to committing to attend, and seeing that it didn’t cover contraceptive services, she decided to attend with the express purpose of battling this policy. During this time, she was described as a 23-year-old coed. Magically, at the same time Congress is debating the forced coverage of contraception, she appears and is even brought to Capitol Hill to testify. This morning, in an interview with Matt Lauer on the Today show, it was revealed that she is 30 years old, NOT the 23 that had been reported all along. In other words, folks, you are being played
Let’s talk about contraception, not gas prices.
Let’s talk about Rush Limbaugh, not islam.
Let’s talk about anything but obama’s record, beliefs, and policies.
lol
Hey, passed it on to my girls as well, and they to theirs.
Gibbs says never apologize, its a sign of weakness...
No, I wouldn't do that. We need voters like my wife.
Update, check post #42...
most women are blondes, watching soap operas.
OK, so their not all dumb blondes like your wife and me, very few of us though. lol
I did not mean to suggest your wife was a dumb blonde. hahaha. SORRY.
Saw it last night. It’s a business decision I suppose. It likely is also to protect the many people who are employed because of his show.
I wouldn’t come off it my self. The woman put herself out there and demanded we pay for her sexual proclivities, as well her recreational activities.
Bu putting as high a premium on her compulsions it is clear she is very active.
There is nothing stopping her from making other choices for her birth control without attempting to coerce me for her synthetic moral imperative to pay for her lifestyle.
She is thief and demanding government act as her patron and proxy to steal my money for activity is beyond insulting.
She is delusional for her bloated and unsupported self importance.
I owe her nothing and she certainly would never do a thing for me.
So, Fluke her and I won’t be surprised to learn more of her and”manufactured”.
