I think that sums it up nicely. Limbaugh’s motivation is the almighty dollar and nothing more. If tomorrow he could somehow increase his income by moving his rhetoric to the left of Michael Moore he would do so.
This.
Putting it between your knees only prevents missionary style sex from happening. Every time one of these assholes makes this ‘joke’ I wonder just how shitty their sex lives are.
Republicans really do hate sex, don’t they? Which makes no sense at all. If their Gawd wanted us only to have sex for procreation there wouldn’t be orgasms and we’d all come equipped with USB ports or something, probably in some easier to access place.
Fucking is a natural desire. People want to fuck. People will fuck. Fucking is fun. Teaching people how to avoid unplanned pregnancies probably (speculation) increases the amount of happy fucking going on out there. There are some people who argue fucking is actually for you. Educating people on how to avoid diseases and pregnancies for even happier fucking is a good thing.
But no. Some assholes want to punish women with pregnancies for fucking, even though fucking is totally natural, and even though they say they care about babies. You know what’s bad for mothers and babies? Unwanted pregnancies. The more information and education and BC you have, the better able you are to have a fun healthy sex life.
Why do the Republicans hate sex so much? I just feel like it’s so easy for them to say ‘don’t do it,’ because they have shitty sex themselves and if other people are having good sex they should be punished. Especially women they can’t and won’t fuck.
If the Repubs ever succeed in rolling back womens’ rights entirely, then they’ll start in on married sex.
And Rush Cystbutt’s ‘apology’ is more of the same old same old, “I’m an entertainer, it was just a joke, bitchez.”
By the way, who’s got the over/under on his next divorce?
If there isn’t a band named “Iron Sluts” there should be.
They hate the idea of anyone enjoying sex without fear. They hate the idea that people out there are fucking without being terrified of permanent, life-long consequences. They hate the notion that there exist somewhere people who actually enjoy sex for itself and not just as a means of furthering the population.
And for SOME of them, they hate that women are enjoying sex without running the risk of having to experience the punishment of childbirth, which was supposed to be our punishment for eating that damn apple all those years ago.
What they hate even more than sex is other people enjoying it…
What exactly does Rush (and his listeners) think the word “humorous” means?
The stuff that collects on the floor of rain forests? A place to store cigars?
Their anti-sex agenda really seems to be focused only on women (and gay people). It really seems to be all about keeping women down. Presumably there are plenty of men that Rush is imagining Sandra Fluke sleeping around with. They’re simply unmentioned. It’s the women who have to be publicly shamed for having sex. The men can do whatever they want (unless it’s with another man).
As far as I can tell, it’s really about the power dynamics between the sexes. And look, now we’ve got all the Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee voting against reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act. That’s not because they don’t like sex. It’s because they don’t want women to fully control their own lives. If the law isn’t going to keep women down anymore, it can at least be prevented from getting in the way of other men keeping women down on their own.
(It’s also not the result of some Democratic conspiracy to manipulate women, as Scylla’s brain-damaged rantings would have it.)
If they’re outed…
[Hijack]There’s actually a story today on then closeted/occasionally outed/now out former Bush campaign manager & Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman apologizing for his role in gaybaiting for votes and promoting an anti-gay marriage amendment and other anti-gay causes. My response is basically "Thank you for your apology, now how about doing something to undo the damage you did. Or don’t. Or hang yourself. Or die screaming, you particularly pungent piece of craven rat shit heir to Roy Cohn. I really don’t much care which you choose so long as you do it out of site because I would not piss on your worthless miserable weaselly twisted form if you were going up in flames and I’d just finished a 54 ounce Bladder Buster Bold coffee from the Cafe Diuretica. Though I will most certainly agree that you are sorry. But please don’t get me wrong: I hope you die in agony praying for death, and it takes a long time coming, because any self-esteem problem you have is based on the fact you have some when there’s no reason for you to because you are in fact worthless.
Limbaugh’s apology means slightly less other than as a success in making the fucker blink.[/hijack]
So this major Republican guy was gay all along? Boy, sure hope those Phelps assholes don’t find out, they would picket the Republican Party. Any way we can be sure they don’t find out? Maybe mass email campaigns, forwarded, saying “Don’t anybody tell them!”.
O’Reilly has issued the statement “Fuck it!”
Or maybe just thought it.
“My choice of words was not the best” is not an apology, it’s at most the pretense of one. It means he was fine with his original meaning, but wishes in retrospect that he’d chosen words that had snuck beneath the larger public’s radar. Presumably while riling up the wingnut base just as much.
He’s still a slimeball on this, as well as in general.
Rush fans are up in arms about the ‘apology’- especially on Facebook. They are going to boycott the sponsors who pulled their ads (who are already being boycotted by the folks who are upset with Rush’s attacks on Fluke).
This post seems to upset them a little more: “Rush walked right into Obama’s trap! NOW who’s the one on the apology tour!?”, as does the suggestion that Rush should sent his upset followers some ProFlowers.
Logical thinking is not the strong suit of Rush followers, it seems.
LOL!
Well, he hasn’t had a lot of experience with apologizing. That’s why he can’t do it very well. 
It’s a yummy dip made from pureed chickpeas. Often consumed by unAmerican liberal foodies who can’t tolerate real man food like a steak.
No, they’re just kinda weird about it.
He didn’t mean to (repeatedly, over several days) call her a “slut”- he *actually *meant to call her a “slattern”. You know, 'cause it’s classier.
This would have been classier yet:
