Despite furor, Limbaugh refuses to back down on criticism of Sandra Fluke (Good! Never retreat)
msnbc ^ | 3/2/2012 | nbc

Posted on 03/02/2012 6:21:30 PM PST by tobyhill

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.”

Has MSNBC acknowledged that Fluke is NOT a “23 yr-old coed, but a 30 yr-old LIBERAL ACTIVIST who ‘enrolled’ at Georgetown a week ago so she could fake some feminazi agitprop, yet???

Do you have a source for the fact that she only enrolled a week ago? I had heard about her age being 30, not 23, but the enrollment info is HUGE and I would like a source before I repeat it.

Thanks!

"Georgetown student who advocated for the availability of birth control..."

Quite the spin.

Yep. It won’t be long now before women are forced into back alleys for contraceptives, or degraded into swapping recipes for birth control pills.

/sarcasm. :-)

I heard the Statement Rush Limbaugh made and he said nothing that would not have been self evident to any normal person who also listened to the statement that the bimbo made to congress.

Why else would MS. Fluke have to spend Three Grand for birth control.Only someone who lives a promiscuous lifestyle would nee to spend that kind of money.

Why should the Tax Payers have to pay for her Sexual Gratification?

Never back down when you are right, Go Rush. Correct me where I am wrong but if I understand the situation correctly, first this girl claims she has absolutely no self control, and because of this she wants me to pay for her to have sex, but we already gave her a second choice to have the much coveted abortion, I thought women gained a second chance with abortion. Seems to me that all these Women are freely admitting that they Are Irresponsible and incapable of controlling their own emotions and lives, so Why Do We Let WOMEN VOTE?? They are incapable of self control according to, well, themselves.

NO... he said if he were her PARENTS he would do this, in response to zerO stating that her parents would be proud of the little slut...

I thought women chatted, “No coat hangers”. Now they chant, “Free condoms”. Oh, how times have changed,
