Rush Limbaugh explains his 'apology': Obama and the Left made him call Sandra Fluke a slut

In case there was any question about whether Rush Limbaugh is sincerely sorry for calling Sandra Fluke a slut—for three straight days—nope. He's not. Because, you see, it's not his fault. Obama and the Left made him do it:

I want to explain why I apologized to Sandra Fluke in the statement that was released on Saturday. I've read all the theories from all sides, and, frankly, they are all wrong. I don't expect -- and I know you don't, either -- morality or intellectual honesty from the left. They've demonstrated over and over a willingness to say or do anything to advance their agenda. It's what they do. It's what we fight against here every day. But this is the mistake I made. In fighting them on this issue last week, I became like them.


Yes, because everyone knows how "the Left" runs around calling women sluts for taking birth control, right? And besides, it's not that big a deal:

Against my own instincts, against my own knowledge, against everything I know to be right and wrong I descended to their level when I used those two words to describe Sandra Fluke. That was my error. I became like them, and I feel very badly about that.

wore off.

Apparently he isn't even man enough or if the case warranted woman enough to apologize without using scapegoats or crutches.

Thanks for the thread, Galraedia.
