Rush Limbaugh in Planned Bullyhood, by Karen Handel


On Abortion: Don't require colleges to pay for students' contraception

Rush Limbaugh had just been called by Democrats to testify before Congress on the contraception issue. Sandra Fluke was portrayed by the media as your average college student. It turned out that Fluke was actually 30 and had specifically enrolled at Georgetown Law School so that she could challenge the fact that the religious school didn't cover her contraceptive care. Rush Limbaugh proceeded to say:

"What does it say about the college co-ed Susan [sic] Fluke, who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex, what does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. 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. Okay, so she's not a slut. She's `round-heeled.' I take it back."

It was inflammatory, completely inappropriate language. To his credit, Limbaugh apologized--as he should have. To their discredit, Republican leaders were largely silent
