He apologized because he called HER a slut when she wasn’t talking about herself. He had to do it. Like it or not, he at least admitted he said something wrong about her, which is a lot more then Sarah or Bristol Palin ever got from their detractors or Bush from his. Rush did the right thing, I just hope he can survive it.
“when she wasn’t talking about herself.”
Technically. But initial press reports indicated otherwise, and her testimony was constructed to support the idea that “WE students are being harmed”:
“We can only answer that we expected women to be treated equally, to not have our school create untenable burdens that impede our academic success. We expected that our schools would live up to the Jesuit creed of cura personalis, to care for the whole person, by meeting all of our medical needs. We expected that when we told our universities of the problems this policy created for students, they would help us. We expected that when 94% of students opposed the policy, the university would respect our choices regarding insurance students pay for completely unsubsidized by the university. We did not expect that women would be told in the national media that if we wanted comprehensive insurance that met our needs, not just those of men, we should have gone to school elsewhere, even if that meant a less prestigious university. We refuse to pick between a quality education and our health, and we resent that, in the 21st century, anyone thinks it’s acceptable to ask us to make this choice simply because we are women. “
Lots of WE for someone who was actually trying to say THEY...
He will survive it. If not then this country is doomed because it means there is more extreme leftists than normal human beings. I still stand by my assertion that she deserved to be called a slut and worse. $3000 bucks in rubbers she is demanding from the taxpayers? I’m 50 years old, had 4 girlfriends before I married my wife. I don’t think I have EVER paid more than $500 when it came to sex and protection with ALL of them. If she wasn’t talking about herself, then she was supporting the slut lifestyle which made her a slut by default and Rush never should have apologized.
You cannot show any quarter with these libs, they are pigs, hellbent on destruction, and if they protest, then protest back 1000 fold. Rush has more than enough money to last 100 lifetimes. WTF is he doing bowing down to this slut who BTW is proving to be a fraud the more I read about her?
You are correct. What she was talking about was how all the other women she knows that are students at Georgetown are such sluts.
