GM used to advertise on Rush. They stopped and they went bankrupt.

Coincidence?

I just sent off an email (which he probably won’t read)....quoting the Bible. Matthew 24:3-15

If anything it probably should have gone like this

I apologize to Ms. Fluke for calling her a “slut” because it now appears that she probably was not personally involved in the kind of sexual activity that she is calling for taxpayer support of. I will be more careful about this kind of thing in the future. I still believe Ms. Fluke is a sympathizer to sluts and a cheerleader of sluttish behavior.

A very ‘narrow’ apology .... “wrong words, insulting word choice” only. He didn’t take back anything he said, really - if anything he doubled down on Obama’s getting involved (”don’t think it is a topic that should reach a Presidential level”). He may have apologized for not choosing his words regarding Ms. Fluke carefully, but this “apology” is VERY carefully worded.

Go ahead and post the verses from whatever version you choose (and it probably has nothing to do with the case).

Well, I hope not. Maybe now we can talk about...oh I don't know....maybe the economy?!

He may cancel my 24/7, but I am sending him Bible quotes again and again.

He caved. He always said “it’s not time to panic, I’ll tell you when it’s time to panic” (not verbatim).

Well guess what.....I AM IN A PANIC. YOU JUST BOWED TO THE EVIL.

No wonder they have never discussed Sheriff Joe’s investigation and poo pooed us “birthers”.

I am SICK!

All the women in our family are sorry to hear you are leaving the Limbaugh show. We listened to these particular shows and appreciate the humor he is using to expose leftist nanny statism.

Along with Rush, we deplore the infantalizing of women by leftists and encourage women to take control of their own health. We also dislike the manipulations of the left that use a 30 year old public dole lawyer to pretend she is a penniless law student at hearings used to attack freedom of religious beliefs in our country.

The left is staying on message and using the issue of contraception as a wedge to marginalize and defeat conservative thinking in the Unitied States. Read Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. You are being manipulated by Rule number 13 : Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. He further states: “One acts decisively only in the conviction that all the angels are on one side and all the devils on the other.”

Stop being manipulated. You are being manipulated and the ignorant are being manipulated. There are a lot more conservative women than leftist women. We are concerned.

To walk back calling her personally a slut offends the words of Christ just how?

She probably belongs to the drunk bar. Her Linkedin profile says she graduated in 2003 nine years ago. Hardly a student and one that is 23.

I remember him giving several away to callers, and he said he has one at home.

I still remember Marta's sleep number...75.

"Go ahead and post the verses from whatever version you choose (and it probably has nothing to do with the case)."

He states his gift is a loan from God...therefore, he shall hear from Him.

Maybe Sleep Train is under new management. But the owners are/were friends with Rush during his Sacramento days. The company is headquartered just outside Sacto, in Rocklin. Think the guy that was a close friend of Rush was named Andy. In any event, my guess is Sleep Train isn't owned by Rush's old friend.

"My choice of words was not the best, and in the attempt to be humorous, I created a national stir. I sincerely apologize to Ms. Fluke for the insulting word choices."

A slut is a slut. She isn't apologizing about it either. Neither should he.
