4. The outrage over his remarks, he finds "absolutely hilarious".
Here's the part of the story I hadn't heard:


.....

Limbaugh also said he found the outrage over his remarks “absolutely hilarious.” He again completely misrepresented Fluke’s testimony, saying, she “went before a Congressional committee and said she’s having so much sex she’s going broke buying contraceptives and wants us to buy them.” In fact, Fluke testimony was about a friend — who is gay — and needed contraception for medical reasons, but was denied coverage by Georgetown, a Catholic university.

He went on to say, “I will buy all of the women at Georgetown University as much Aspirin to put between their knees as they want” — a reference to Rick Santorum-backer Foster Friess’ home-spun idea of birth control.




Keep up the fight, girl_interrupted, because this is one that we are going to win. More and more people are wising up that the way for America to begin to thrive again is to first repudiate the purveyors of hatred.
