Sounds like you didn't read his monolog in the first segment of his show. There was no "damage" control. You, just like the MSM have it totally wrong as to why he apologized. Go read his monolog if you haven't or are you calling him a LIAR? Rush doesn't need any of those sponsors as he has others just chomping at the bit to advertise with him.
His initial point was correct - what do you call someone who wants to get paid to have sex?
It doesn't matter WHAT Ms. Fluke seems to be, Rush used a very derogatory term, he knows it. He did the exact right thing to uphold his standards by apologizing to Ms. Fluke. You're right about one thing, it has EVERYTHING to do with FOS. You have the right to say anything you want, but Rush and all of us have a "responsibility" for what we say to one another and even to the other side. The only insulting claim Rush made was toward Ms. Fluke.
I am so glad he's not like these leftist dregs and irresponsible debased pigs like Maher.
Maybe Savage is wrong!
My on-line dictionary defines a slut as a slovenly or promiscuous woman. It might have been more polite to refer to Ms. Fluke as promiscuous, but slut was more provocative.
Frankly, I got tired of hearing Rush talk about it and turned him off. The mistake that Rush made was harping on it for three days. He was excited by the media attention he was getting. It was a mistake, but calling her a slut once would have been ok with me.
I am much more interested in the issue of which party is hurting women by the denial overage for women’s health issues, GOP or Democrat.
Just as a reminder:
ObamaCare’s promises to cut costs really mean cutting care, especially expensive cancer care, which often occurs at what will soon be the “end of life.” America’s leading position in cancer care will fall off a cliff, taking your life with it.
The “changes” to be forced on us starting in 2013 do not provide “hope.” For cancer patients, ObamaCare’s “change” is a drastic threat to your survival.
ObamaCare deals a body blow to our state of the art cancer treatment. Multiple “hits” in the healthcare bill include: (1) Medicare fee cuts to cancer specialists, resulting in payments that may be below the cost of staying in business; (2) cutbacks in coverage for the screening tests that pick up early cancers, such as prostate specific antigen (PSA), mammograms, Pap smears, and colonoscopies; (3) onerous and costly government mandates and regulations, interfering in physician-patient decisions for allowed treatments; (4) de-labeling (i.e., disapproving) some cancer drugs to save money, already started with Avastin for aggressive late stage breast cancer, and (5) denials of life-saving treatments, copying the UK’s National Health Service rationing board (Dr. Donald Berwick’s stated goal). The UK rationing board (N.I.C.E.) now denies many new cancer drugs for leukemia, multiple myeloma, stomach, lung, breast and prostate cancers.
