Rush Releases Apology Statement to Georgetown Law Student Sandra Fluke

Rush Releases Apology Statement to Georgetown Law Student Sandra Fluke

After much criticism for his choice of words in remarking on Sandra Fluke, the Georgetown University law student called to testify on Capitol Hill this past week in regards to the cost of birth control, Rush Limbaugh has issued a statement on his website apologizing to the law student.:

“For over 20 years, I have illustrated the absurd with absurdity, three hours a day, five days a week.  In this instance, I chose the wrong words in my analogy of the situation. I did not mean a personal attack on Ms. Fluke.

I think it is absolutely absurd that during these very serious political times, we are discussing personal sexual recreational activities before members of Congress. I personally do not agree that American citizens should pay for these social activities. What happened to personal responsibility and accountability? Where do we draw the line? If this is accepted as the norm, what will follow? Will we be debating if taxpayers should pay for new sneakers for all students that are interested in running to keep fit?In my monologue, I posited that it is not our business whatsoever to know what is going on in anyone’s bedroom nor do I think it is a topic that should reach a Presidential level.

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.”

While commenting on Fluke’s testimony during his radio program Wednesday, Limbaugh unloaded against the 30-year-old co-ed using language that has since been criticized by many to have crossed the line.

“What does it say about the college co-ed Susan (sic) Fluke who goes before a Congressional committee and says she must be paid to have sex?” Limbaugh said Wednesday. “What does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. She wants to be paid to have sex. She’s having so much sex, she can’t afford the contraception. She wants you and me and the taxpayers to pay her to have sex. What does that make us? We’re the pimps.”

Republican House Speaker John Boehner called Limbaugh’s remarks “inappropriate.” House Democrats have raised more than $1.1 million in the past week from their “War on Women” campaign, which references Limbaugh’s attack on Fluke in fundraising emails.

      If he felt the need to apologize, he should have aplogized for using the word slut and just stuck with the word prostitute for PC reason. Actually the more I read about her, I don’t think she needs contraception, just saran wrap and chap stick.

      I don’t agree with the names that he called Ms. Fluke, but I do agree with the point he was trying to make! This government has no right meddling in our personal lives, and this woman should be responsible for her own actions.

      Why is it that every time we try to stand up for what’s right, we end up having to apologize? We can’t even think any more without being accused of some sort of “thought crime”…

      This country has been turned upside down, and we need to stop apologizing and start standing up if we’re to have any chance of taking our country back.

      I want to know how many notches she has on her belt?

      WIKIPEDIA ALTERNATIVE MEANING: Slut is used as a slang term in the BDSM, polyamorous, and gay and bisexual communities.[11] With BDSM, polyamorous, and non-monogamous people, in usage taken from the book The Ethical Slut, the term has been used as an expression of choice to openly have multiple partners, and revel in that choice: “a slut is a person of any gender who has the courage to lead life according to the radical proposition that sex is nice and pleasure is good for you.”[12] A slut is a person who has taken control of their sexuality and has sex with whomever they choose, regardless of religious or social pressures or conventions to conform to a straight-laced monogamous lifestyle committed to one partner for life. The term has been “taken back” to express the rejection of the concept that government, society, or religion may judge or control one’s personal liberties, and the right to control one’s own sexuality.

      Simarliar to the “B” word, when a woman now says thank you for recognizing I am being effective.

      So by apologizing, is he now insulting her again by removing such a wonderful title?

      Btw I am not approving any of it except Rush’s original comment.

      I agree that Rush should not have apologized in the sense of his persona on this and other issues. His public ‘character’ would never do it. But Rush is able to empathize and that is his own personal decision. Although this Fluke is a complete idiot who is dumbing down the world around her even further, she‘s someone’s daughter. (Look at all the hypocrisy in my reply).
      Rush is the bigger man and I think that’s all it comes down to. Dems/Libs have no idea how to apologize (and mean it) or take the higher road. Beohner should be paying more attention to his last few days of legal insider trading before he gets booted.

With one of the major pillars of Conservatism being personal responsibility and reaping what one sows, old Rush kept doubling down on his rhetoric until a few sponsors started pulling out. Then he rolled over and caved to the first signs of pressure instead of being a man and standing behind his words. How Conservative is this professional crybaby, really?

I like the analogy of the running shoes. Another is toothpaste. If contraception is preventative care, it is the equivalent of toothpaste, and I don’t get that paid for either.

      Rush is an entertainer and is good at it. He has a large audience and makes tons of money making absurd and outrageous comments, just like Glenn Beck used to before his offensive comments lost him all his advertisers on FOX.

      In this case Rush wasn’t challenging her beliefs, he was attacking her and her parents on a very personal level, including accusing her of being a slut, graphically speculating on her sex life, and suggesting she post videos of her having intercourse.

      That people here think Rush, with a listening audience of millions, is welcome to try to destroy a young woman’s life based on a her heartfelt expressions of a political view he disagrees with is sad and pathetic. Like another before him, his advertisers began to drop him and ones that didn’t pressured him I have no doubt. This capitalism friends: advertisers aren‘t going support someone who is so offensive they don’t want their brand associated with him. You have to love capitalism, because it imposes limits on human decency that the First Amendment does not.

      As an American though I am saddened that people cheer Rush’s character assassination of of a young woman who was only speaking on behalf of what the majority of women in this country believe. Good luck Republicans, with this guy as your spokesperson, you have an uphill battle.

Every time I do, I leave with sorrow. So many of us are filled with such self-righteous indignation and vile comments (on either side politically speaking, and even I at times fallen into this trap) that it makes me wonder how prepared are we for the coming of our Lord? So willing are we to take such an egregious offense and condemnation against whomever and for whatever, that I wonder if any of us can with confidence say, “Hail Lord God of Hosts, I praise, honor and adore You!” when we meet Him. Please, please I beg you, fast and pray for all of humanity to prepare for His coming. Read the Book of Daniel and Revelations and ask sincerely, “Why can it not be now?”. “Why would the Lord Jesus Christ not keep his word?” For those who believe, fast and pray for those of our brothers and sisters who don’t recognize the Season of Time. Fast and pray for those who do not believe. Everything else is but ashes in our mouths.

      @ All you Libs

      How is what Rush said hateful? You have a woman who goes before CONGRESS, and shamelessly throws out bogus numbers and stats on the cost of birth control as if nobody would ever double check her figures. She also asks that the Federal Government… who gets their money from other people like you and me… the taxpayers… foot the bill to make it possible for her to engage in sex. Okay, that is FACT. We agree on that because it actually happened, it was captured on video and audio.

      All Rush did was point this FACT out. “She is asking for other people to PAY, in order for her to engage in sexual activity.“ THEN Rush asked this question ”What do you call a woman who asks for other people to pay, (foot the bill, compensate, make financially possible) for her to have sex?”

      He stated the fact which was televised and recoded, and then asked a question based upon facts presented. I fail to see how that is hateful. He didn’t say that he hated her. He didn’t say that she was a slut or a prostitute. He said that what she was doing, was presenting herself AS a slut or prostitute. He even explained this.

      See you guys don’t listen. You hear only what you want to hear. You are not as enlightened as you think yourselves to be. If you were you wouldn’t be screaming “HATE SPEECH”, you would be saying “Though he has a clear point, I do not appreciate his choice of words”. THAT is a valid argument, not hate speech. But why win an argument i

      JZS is a left wing marxist hack and is good at it. He has a minimal audience and makes very little money making absurd and outrageous comments, just like all the fools at AIR AMERICA used to do before they closed up shop due to NO listeners, OR sponsors.

      In this case JZS isn‘t challenging the substance of Rush’s comments, he is just attacking him on very personal level, just like he does to Glenn, and every other right wing figure that regularly exposes and
      makes fools of the lefty loons daily.

      JZS, the rest of your post is too ridiculous to even try to lampoon.

      The “young woman” (as you put it) willingly and knowingly put herself in the line of fire to advance your marxist agenda, and you try to pass her off as some sort crusader of truth.

      It’s a joke, and you know it. Buy your own birth control.

      With you, OWS, pelosi etc, as spokespersons for the left, I think the uphill battle is yours to fight. And it is evidenced by your display of desperation by having to spend your time on the internet trying to counter any and every story you can muster up a response to.

She is going to a “Catholic” University … Catholics, (If they are going on church authority) do not provide or aid in contraceptives, other than “Abstinence”. She is showing a lack of respect for the Catholic University rules and regs … Why would she do this? She KNEW EXACTLY what the inclusions and exclusions in her insurance is or would be. It is like a female soldier I saw on T.V., being interviewed after the Gulf War started … She was crying and lamenting about how the military was “Making” her leave her child and go overseas …. But, she KNEW FROM THE START that she would have to leave her child in the event of war or duty to country. She SIGNED a paper stating that she knew and understood this! This Fluke woman smacks of deceptive and false motives. If she doesn‘t like the school’s policies … find one she does like.

      Really, you’re still sticking with that? This whole “Obama is gonna send us to death camps” thing started before he was even sworn in, and guess what, it didn’t happen. It’s just like Bill Maher said, people who hate Obama have created this fictional character who is trying to take their guns, trying to make America over into a Communist and/or Muslim nation, etc. Another point Maher makes is that when people criticize Obama it‘s commonly not over something he’s actually done, but something they think he’s going to do. I see a lot of headline that go “Is Obama planning on doing this?“ or ”Could Obama do that if he’s elected to a second term?”, and none of them have anything to do with the things he has actually done while in office.

      “It was then revealed that prior to attending Georgetown she was an active women’s right advocate. In one of her first interviews she is quoted as talking about how she reviewed Georgetown’s insurance policy prior to committing to attend, and seeing that it didn’t cover contraceptive services, she decided to attend with the express purpose of battling this policy. During this time, she was described as a 23-year-old coed. Magically, at the same time Congress is debating the forced coverage of contraception, she appears and is even brought to Capitol Hill to testify. This morning, in an interview with Matt Lauer on the Today show, it was revealed that she is 30 years old, NOT the 23 that had been reported all along.”

      Hey JZS,

      Thanks for the compliment, but in answer to your question…….If, and when you ever come close to actually making a point, I’ll comment on it………..yuk, yuk, yuk.

      But seriously, I think any sponsors that pulled out (hey…….pulling out……there’s a novel concept…..perhaps mizz Fluke could tell her partners to try that once in a while.) are spineless, or were being pressured by outside forces.

      But he will come out of this smelling like a “DESERTROSE” so don’t worry. Sponsors are a dime a dozen when you have an audience that large.

      Am I upset about GBTV? Nope, not at all. Did I ever say that I pay to watch? (All kinds of amazing things can happen when you actually have some FRIENDS)

      You asked this question………..”Do you think women who use birth control are sluts like Rush?”
      Can’t really answer that because to do so, I would have to agree with your assumption that Rush is a slut, which he is not. I might ask of you JZS, have you stopped beating your life partner yet?

      Am I not expressing an opinion when I infer that you are in favor of promoting marxist principles, and even marxist Principals?

      If you are reading the posts of trolls like JZS and believing them you will never get it. This is just a commie trick; just like JZS says that Glenn Beck lost sponsors and got kicked off of Fox. GB did not renew his contract, stayed past the date his contract with Fox was over until Fox could put together a 5PM replacement for his show. GB left Fox to start his own network, where he could say whatever he wanted and he is doing great. I think his wife told him to back down… not his sponsors. In a few days Rush will come out and explain after he and his wife finds out what a liar this Fluke is.

      This law student represents, for Rush, every smart, beautiful woman who would never give him the time of day in high school and his very brief stint in college. Rush resents all women because he was never clever or confident enough to attract one on his own, until he was so rich that women were willing to overlook his obvious shortcomings in exchange for the lifestyle he could provide. And even then they can’t stand him: he’s on, what, number three now? All of his bravado is obviously a desperate attempt to show that he doesn’t care that he was never one of the popular kids; but the desperate sound in his voice is a dead giveaway: he is consumed by his knowledge of his own intellectual inferiority and his inability to be respected by actual smart people. All that phony talk about the Limbaugh Institute and a pretend graduate school just shows how much he wishes he were smart enough to actually finish college. He resents people who have. Have you noticed that he can’t really stand to confront people who disagree with him? It‘s because he’s terrified of really arguing. Remember his TV show that lasted about two months? He could not stand to argue with real people who disagreed with him. What a petty, sad, little man.

      This woman is a high-relief, vivid example of what is going wrong with this country. She deserves to be insulted! It’s hard to comprehend without vomiting the combination of arrogance, laziness, foolishness this selfish, dull-minded little tart exhibits. In a time when this country is literally losing the concept of the individual daily, we have, shoved before us, this self-entitled little twit who at the behest of Pelosi does the obvious song-and-dance which is meant to do nothing but pigeon-hole republicans as anti-women’s issues in anticipation of the coming elections. This dense little idiot is being used and the whole show is disgusting. Dang Rush! You should never have apologized to that simp. She should be exposed as the useful idiot she is. I’ll say it without apology, …she’s garbage and deserves to be called so.

      TIFOSA, Rush lost ONE, count it again ONE advertiser. And, I still find it funny that is was Sleep Train, a mattress and bedding store. Even if he lost a dozen advertisers there are more than enough standing in line to advertise on his show. Furthermore, a majority of Rush’s listeners have been such rabid supporters of his advertisers that I expect Sleep Train to lose business for this reaction.
      I also do not see this as any kind of victory for the left or for Fluke herself. Rush has identified his mistake in certain choice words and is apologising for lowering himself while trying to be humorous. While you want to slam Rush I would venture to say that you suck down every word from the likes of Bill Maher and likely agree with every word.

NOTHING IS FREE IN THIS COUNTRY. Nothing should be free in this or any other country. By providing free anything you will become slave to the master who gives it to you.

      @baddoggy. Viagra is part of most drug plans. FYI.
      Men can’t get pregnant. This issue was birth control
      and whether the government can force those organizations
      to offer it in insurance plans they provide even though
      they’re morally opposed to it.
      It’s become about demonizing an American citizen who was
      asked to testify before some in congress.
      Rush decided anyone who wants birth control
      covered out to be a slut, prostitute, and should
      provide porn of her sex acts as payment.
      Most here have decided to pile on and agree with
      her and once again insult and name call anyone who
      disagrees. Like we did in third grade before we were
      disciplined by our elders not to use names.
      Anyway,
      Meanwhile most of the nation forgets the original
      argument and thinks Rush hates woman and
      conservatives support him. Good way to frame an
      argument. But what do I know. Apparently

      BEAUBIRD is right; the March to Marxism led by b. hussein o. is much further along than we had hoped. The proof? Look at how these radical, lib progressives are able to violate the Constitution and SILENCE a dissenting opinion; Rush Limbaugh SPEAKS OUT AGAINST taxpayers being forced to CONDONE, via PAYING FOR, the unlimited sexual activity of an unmarried woman during her college years at a Catholic University and what happens? Several of Limbaugh’s sponsors of his EIB network show BOW to pressure from the radical lefties and drop support for Rush in an attempt to silence him! That is exactly what Marxist/Communist countries do; Silence dissenters! The First Amendment to our Constitution is trashed; it’s fine for radical, lib progressive to have their rights protected by it, but NOT CONSERVATIVES. Was bill mahr silenced, forced into an apology, or have his sponsors pressured to drop support of the bill mahr show when he called Sarah Palin, [NUMEROUS TIMES], the ‘c’ word on National TV? How about when he calls Tea Party Patriots racists? Answer is not only NO, but b. hussein o. SUPPORTS and CONDONES bill mahr‘s views that Sarah Palin is a ’c’ word and Tea Party Patriots are racists; b. hussein just accepted $1,000,000.00 from bill mahr with admiration and thanks. How does it feel to know that YOU embolden and empower the Marxists when you do NOTHING to stop obvious attempts by the 20%-25% of radicals in this country to steal freedom from the MAJORITY?

Here’s the bottom line to all this…Whether its Rush or Michael Berry or Sean Hannity or Mark Levin or Laura Ingrahm….any of them…when they start getting hit in the pocket book and their expensive lifestyles are in jeopardy they will all fold like a cheap suit. Quit calling these folks patriots. Patriots lay it on the line and don’t look back NO MATTER THE COST. These folks are nothing but entertainers…plain and simple. And rest assured when this Administration clamps down on free speech and it becomes a crime to speak out in this country (which isn’t very far away) all of these folks…Rush included…will be fleeing town with the rest of the elites.

      WE ARE AMERICANS, apparently you will find this surprising, but Viagra is a medication for an actual malady. Oral contraceptives are not a medication for a malady, when prescribed as a contraceptive. Yes, they can be prescribed as a medication, but that would be for about 5% of the women in this country. So, contraception in itself is for a sexual act as a preventative measure of what is actually nature. Choice is choice, and this woman can choose to do what she wants on her own dime.

      I guess I should take a minute to clear up a thing or two. When your insurance covers a prescription or treatment, that doesn’t mean the prescription or treatment is “free,” as though the government is paying for it. See, you pay for insurance. Probably a lot, like 10K a year or more. And the insurance pays for the prescription. Do you see how that works?

      The second thing is simply that I marvel about how the TP party can embrace the most despicable language from anyone provided they agree with them politically. You don’t seem even realize how, in this case, inappropriate it was to call a young woman a slut and mock her parents. Even when several advertisers drop Rush for the coments, you still don’t “get it.”

      As good a job as you did presenting a factual chronology of Ms. Fluke’s testimony before Congress, not one reply from any of the Libs in this thread…?
      Liberal’s seem to almost never respond to facts as they are presented, but only respond with unhinged irrational emotion.

      The FACT that Ms. Fluke sat before Congress and provided unbelievable testimony with obvious embellished financial accounts regarding costs associated with contraception, this went right over the head of said Liberal’s. $3,000…….really….that’s believable….?
      Doing the math based on said figure concludes allot of sexual activity, Rush based his comments on those calculations and presented his opinion, description of Ms. Fluke.

      If the shoe were on the other foot, a conservative woman was making such a claim before Congress in front of the mass media, can you imagine the volley of comments by the usual left wing news media, talk shows, morning shows, late night shows, comedians, etc etc etc……and do you really think Mr. Ofraudma would have made a similar phone call….!!!!

      Perhaps I should take a moment to clarify that when all insurance companies are MANDATED to provide a “prescription” that is paid for by insurance that we are MANDATED to purchase, it becomes more or less free to the “prescripient”, and is then paid for mostly by the higher insurance premiums that we are MANDATED to pay.

      Unless you are one of the many that can not afford the cost of said MANDATED insurance.

      Then of course, the government, (cough….taxpayers…. cough) ends up subsidizing, (cough…. footing the bill for….cough) the insurance that many can’t pay for themselves.

Hormonal contraceptives are prescribed for medical reasons, including for men for esophageal varices.

      Maybe you formed your opinion without understanding the repercussions of a president imposing mandates on private companies. Let me re-phrase the question.

      Would you support government mandating insurance companies provide ammo in addition to contraception at no extra cost to the customer?

      Like sex, we have the right to exercise our 2‘nd amendment rights. Doing so excessively leads to high ammo costs most can’t afford, infringing on this right.

      Do you believe the government should mandate insurance companies provide ammo at no additional cost as to guarantee that right or do you pick and choose when that standard applies based on your political beliefs?

      Come on JZS, Speak up! You are a man aren’t you? Tell us all what you think! A yes or no will do, no explanation needed.

      Would I be correct in guessing the J in JZS stands for Jello?

You and I couldn’t count in a day, all of the derogatory and disgusting names President Bush, Sarah Palin and others were called. As far as the issue at hand, it’s the same argument I just stated. No one held a gun to Ms. Fluke’s head to attend Georgetown. She should have selected another school more aligned with her beliefs that provides the benefits she seeks. And if you believe she was invited to “testify” to Congress, you are really more partisan or naive than you know.

      Speck we have to have to have an understandingon fundamental concepts in order to have a discussion. Either you don’t have insurance – in which case I’m sorry – or you don’t understand how insurance companies make a profit. When an insurance company covers a prescription or exam or medical insurance, that isn’t “free.” The insuree pays for it. Insurance companies make money – and they are making record profits btw, and still jacking up prices – because most people spend less on medical expenses than they pay out for insurance coverage. And that’s okay, except the jacked up prices, because consumers recognize that up front and always have – insurance of different kinds has been around for at least 500 years.

      You buy to insurance to cover yourself against an unexpected medical expense that might bankrupt you and and your family and you leave you either homeless or reliant the government to even feed your kids and yourself. So you pay more than you probably would otherwise, but that extra money is paid against the possibility that you might have an unexpected medical emergency, like cancer or a child born with heart problems or whatever.

      In any case, the government isn’t paying for an insurees prescriptions or medical procedures or whatever. Insurance companies are happy to pay for contraceptives because that’s cheaper than paying for prenatal care, the cost of delivery and other costs associated with having young children.

      Why would any intelligent insurance company executives favor relatively small, and temporary monetary gains, at the expense of greatly shrinking their future customer base?

      If that is their business plan, then they are most likely democrat / marxists, and not very bright at all.

All of you need to read more about Ms. Fluke. $1000.00 a year for contraception is a lot of sex no matter how you slice it. She and her promiscuous friends can most likely get low cost or no cost contraception at Planned Parenthood or a clinic. She is a tool being used by Pelosi and her Cronies. Intitally when Ms. fluke was looking at law schools to attend she had decided to NOT attend Georgetown because she found out the insurance offered would not cover her contraception. That is because it is a catholic institution. Then she changed her mind and decided to attend Georgetown. Her agenda? to try to convince them to start covering contraception. I read about this just a few hours ago. In my book she is still very much a prostitute, maybe with men AND to the left wing Progressives.

She likely had supporters who had more to putting her up to this than it was her idea entirely. It all just lines up too neatly with this contraception craziness. Never in my life have I ever seen that contraception was not easily obtainable and relatively inexpensive. And no, I am not talking about a men’s room prophylactic dispenser. There are discount pharmacies, and even free outlets for anybody who truly cannot afford to purchase these products.

    If he had originally treated this incident without histrionics he could have had a stronger impact and put the issue on socialized birth control and not on Rush. Not very selfless.

    I thought that Rush had the best commentary out of anyone in talk radio land on this subject and this young “lady”. It makes me angry to see him step back from his original comments. The garabage spewed on a daily basis by the likes of Ed Shultz is far worse than anything said by Rush.

    Where’s Sarah Palins apology? She should have never been called the c word. Since when do people have to apologize for stating the truth? It is said that the truth hurts…..maybe Fluke should chew on that.

    Now, where are all the apologies to the Palin family, for all the hateful and vile words spoken to them by the liberal media? As far as I’m concerned the media can go fluke theselves.

    The word is N Y M P H O M A N I A C! Or how ’bout liar! Or try*$***$, maybe you could use *&((&%$##$%, Given the choices, I don;t think ****, %%%%%,and *^*^^^* are inappropriate! Bigger question. If a person testifies- under oath, and provides misinformation, and is compensated for such actions- is that a conspiracy, or mere perjury? My guess is that Eric holder will be able to answer that.

      Yea…well she only lied a little, only slutted as much as she could with the money she had. You know if she would have had more money she might have had enough sex to be happy. Then she would not have needed to lie to Congress…so it’s really our fault in the end. We didnt supply her with enough rubbers….my bad.

      Rush wimped out. She entered the political areana. In my opinion you should be prepared to be slaughtered…

    Why isn’t the media including Fox stating who this lady really is – a 30 yr old women’s activist who just recently enrolled in this law school in order to do exactly what she did!?

      STEELHEAD, a whole ‘2’ sponsors. Shocking high isn’t it? There are potential sponsors standing in the wings to take their places anyway. Rush will not loose anything to this overall. The worst that will happen is that non listeners as yourself will make up even more accusations about what he says or doesn’t say. I‘m sure that you only heard the tidbits of Rush’s statements from the likes of BSNBC and other liberal broadcasts.

    I am so sick of people saying sorry. Quit saying it, most of the time you arent really sorry or you would have corrected yourself seconds after saying something. Point is have balls and dont bend to pressure.
