Rush Limbaugh's apology doesn't change anything

[Berkut]

I don't know whether fluke is a slut, but she sure is a commie and unamerican for asking uncle sam to put his hands in my pocket to pay for her sex life.

Yeah that is not the point.  The point is to keep birthrates at a manageable level to help keep education and social costs under control.  You know, money for good public policy.  Would you rather far more money come out of your pocket later?

No, that isn't the point at all - it is not the job of the state to attempt to manage birth rates via subsidized birth control, at least not in the USA.

The point is whether or not religious institutions should be allowed to restrict access to health care for their employees (or students in this case) if they decide that some defined medical procedure or service is antithetical to their arbitrary religious views.

How does Uncle Sam even enter in to the picture?  Isn't GU the one on the hook for her birth control?

[CountDeMoney]

Sex lives? Birth rates?  Jesus Fuck, people.  You're no worse than the Santorumtards. None of you knuckleheads even read the Fluke testimony, did you?  Polycystic ovarian syndrome, anybody?

What Fluke testified to had nothing to do with the use of birth control for sexual activity, but the use of birth control for a variety of other medical-proscribed uses.

right hand: icky feminine issues

Which one do you think we're going to latch on to

[CountDeMoney]

You're all penis nazis.

At least I respect women, their needs and their rights.

Yeah was that a troll by V?

I posted the article after you all were just whispering about it in random threads.

How much is your house cleaner's contraception setting you back each year?

It is amusing, especially when combined with Limbaugh's assumption that it is possible for his show to "descend" to a lower standard.  He's not even funny any more, from what little I have heard.

I listened to him a bit last week & thought his Fluke thing was pretty funny up until he uttered the words "slut" and "prostitute".  That was a huge tactical blunder & suddenly made the whole thing a lot less funny.

Bullshit.  If that was the point of her testimony, why didn't she lead with it?  She tacked on the Polly Ovary thing to tug at people's heartstrings & divert attention from the obvious.  What's funny is she herself admitted that 80% of the Polly Ovary women get their pills.

She's past president of Georgetown Law Students for Reproductive Justice (LSRJ).  Don't try to peddle the notion that she was humbly appearing to try to get some help for a medical condition.

She did lead with it, douchy.  When it's in your first 90 seconds, it's a lead.


But here, here's a fetus with a pancake on its head.

Limbaugh is even more of a doofus than I thought. Still, things couldn't have possibly gone any better for this Fluke chick. She wanted to manufacture some controversy and, by god, she got it.

[MadImmortalMan]

She should start her own PR firm.

SHe wanted to manufacture controversy? What does that mean?

She certainly wanted to illustrate something she found unfair - is that "manufacturing controversy"?

Kind of like that Rosa Parks, and her manufacturing controversy by refusing to sit where she belonged?
