Isn't the raising of polarizing social issues meant to divert attention from the GOP's worst nightmare . . . an improving economy?

Last I checked Obama created the issue.
Improving at what rate? When your grandchildren are 55?
Senate has a bunch of GOP bills(23) that might help it move along a little better, but can't do that.

Yes, the American public has just been clamoring through varioius elections and campaigns that the number one issue they want politicians to discuss, focus, work on, do nothing but . . . is reproductive rights and contraceptives. Attaching the "Blunt Amendment" to a highway transportation bill?

I forgot not getting pregnant was the most serious item facing the country these days.

Obama created the issue.

GOP got dems on record on the issue didn't they?

Because the University's health plan does not include contraceptives, her friend went without and suffered consequences as a result.

That aside, you do understand that the most common forms of birth control cost the same no matter how often one has sex, right? Rush made up the part about over-indulging, probably so he could later claim to have been kidding. That seems to be his MO.

I don't know much about her, but why wouldn't I? Because she admits to being sexually active?

Frankly, I would hold the GU student as a role model. Clearly intelligent, well spoken, passionate about a social issue.

By contrast, what type of role model is Mr. Limbaugh to your kids?

Here's the interesting party of the story. While Limbaugh could probably survive a mean spirited attack on a political figure, celebrity or personality, it could be that going after a young college student, and young women in general, will backfire much more greatly than anyone could imagine. It has the potential to be the event that defines his career.
You'd hold as a role model? She's a planted DNC radical activist who isn't a sweet 23 years old but is 30.
Anytime did you wonder how many other women testified?
Answer-none

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. In other words, folks, you are being played. She has been an activist all along and the Dems were just waiting for the appropriate time to play her.
While she is described as a “third year law student” they always fail to mention that she is also the past president of Law Students for Reproductive Justice.

OMG! She was president of Law Students for Reproductive Justice! If I had known that I certainly would have discounted her opinion immediately.

Would all the self-righteous right wingers asking about whether Ms. Fluke is a role model care to address the upstanding Mr. Limbaugh's comments? If your daughter testified before a congressional committee would you want Mr. Limbaugh suggesting she put a sex tape up on the internet?

Insinuating that anyone using oral contraceptives is carelessly promiscuous (a slut) and prostitute? Anyone with common sense.

This is his thing though - my point is that Rush is intentionally controversial for the sake of ratings and money. He would otherwise just be another fly on the right wing of the aircraft

But its ok for her to appear under fraudulent circumstances.
She was the one on MSM claiming to be banging her way into poverty by spending all her precious cash on contraceptives.
How many others testified?

Question - did she say she was 23? Or just in her 3rd year of school, etc. I haven't seen evidence of either.

Don't really see how that's a "DNC plant" either
