Once question: since you read the woman’s testimony (and I have no intention of doing so — I’m not big on having women publicly enthuse over promiscuity) can you tell us where Rush got the $3000 figure?

Yeah. And you owe me a Diet Coke some day for making me go back to be certain I am absolutely correct in phrasing this.

Yeah. Fluke, the expert, who was talking about generalities, said:

Without insurance coverage, contraception, as you know, can cost a woman over $3,000 during law school.

Law school is three years long. That's $1,000 per year.

Well, from enrollment to graduation is less than 36 months, but you get the idea. She never said $3,000 per year. And she didn't say her contraception cost $3,000. She was being offered as an expert who talked about medical issues and contraception, as Limbaugh pointed out today when he explained why he apologized. And that's why she wasn't allowed to testify to Congress. She's not an expert on other women and the whole topic (she could have testified about herself).

Bottom line, so to speak:

She used a lot of "we" for someone who meant "they".
