I have been on Twitter for a long time. I routinely bring this stuff up and am in constant warfare with Eric Boehlert and others. (I will say that Jake Tapper of ABC blocked me for criticizing him.)
I am not defending Rush because he is so consumed with his own ego that he caused harm to a very real religious freedom issue, and people who continue this are simply falling into the same trap.
Ms. Fluke is a leftist activist and probably a Marxist who by her own statements enrolled in Georgetown in order to go to war with the Catholic Church.
For non-Catholics, I am sure these seems a bewildering religious fight, but it is a very real concern to me and you and other practicing Catholics. Rush stupidly fell into the trap and he is going to be hung around our necks for the rest of the election.
Our target is not Carbonite, or Ms. Fluke, or anyone else except OBAMA. Focus, people! Rush can take care of himself. If you get out there acting like his attacks on Ms. Fluke were acceptable, you play into the left’s narrative that the GOP is full of woman-haters who want to police people’s bedrooms.
This is the same damn thing they did with Clinton. They turned the narrative to “it’s all about sex.” And we see how well THAT worked for us.
Smarten up! Attack Obama on religious freedom, the economy, joblessness, foreign policy, his increase to the troops on their healthcare, his contempt for the Constitution. There is PLENTY to go after.
Do NOT let this degenerate into a birth control argument! That is completely stupid!
Agree about the degeneration into a BC argument but the leftists and left media won’t let this go.
I think Newt has answered best so far.
Have to defend Rush though. Yes, he does have an ego roughly the size of his body but he also talks without guests for 3 hours every day (minus commercials).
He talks about everything and some people object to various things he talks about.
This fluke woman needed to be exposed and now she has been thanks to Rush.
I’ve posted before on this thread that it’s all about Obama. We can only save our nation if we get rid of this man who was sent either by Satan or an emissary thereof.
Catholics are not the only ones who worry about abortion. It’s a huge issue with me.
But Catholics are in this because Obama is trying to tell them what they can and can’t do regarding their faith.
This should be huge to people of all faiths. It is to me.
