Rush Limbaugh and the suspicious package

Thanks John, but ya know I was baited into that. Heck, sometimes ya just gotta swallow my friend.:cheesygrin:

3 pages on Rush yet very few talked about the real issues surrounding the comment. I would like to think we could have an adult conversation around here from time to time.....sometimes I'm proven wrong however.

It appears the "girl" at Georgetown is not what she appears...

For me the interesting part of the story is the ever-evolving “coed”. I put that in quotes because in the beginning she was described as a Georgetown law student. It was then revealed that prior to attending Georgetown she was an active women’s right advocate. In one of her first interviews she is quoted as talking about how she reviewed Georgetown’s insurance policy prior to committing to attend, and seeing that it didn’t cover contraceptive services, she decided to attend with the express purpose of battling this policy. During this time, she was described as a 23-year-old coed. Magically, at the same time Congress is debating the forced coverage of contraception, she appears and is even brought to Capitol Hill to testify. 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.

Though there aren’t links in the original post to the content mentioned, a little digging shows that it’s all true. Fluke has described herself as a third year law student at Georgetown University, and indeed, that is what she is. However, contrary to the narrative of innocent victimhood that portrays Fluke as a wide-eyed 23-year-old girl caught without contraception on a college campus full of predatory men, Fluke herself is really a 30-year-old women‘s rights activist who not only didn’t get caught without contraception at Georgetown, but specifically knew the university didn’t cover it and chose to attend for precisely that reason.

Once again they trot out the innocent victim only to have it come out that she was no victim at all. This entire issue, from George Stephanopoulis bringing it up in a debate, to the Prez going after the beliefs of the Catholic Chruch, to the chick at Georgetown... all a set-up...

Why do conservatives fall for the trap every single time they play this bs on us?

Because everything they do is a "setup".

From Stimulus to healthcare, financial reform to tax the rich, Solyndra to GM.and G.E., social issues to Fast and Furious, Libya to immigration, Internet to school lunches, crony capitalism to the national debt, welfare to jobs, oil to electric cars, bailouts to OWS, etc.

Just with the things I mentioned, people still want to believe this Prez is a "shoe in"?? Really ?? Everything I mentioned has been spun like a top to get the sheep behind it.

Looks like Rush was right, she is a ****.

Can someone find me the thread with all the lefty outrage that was on here when Ed Shultz called Laura Ingraham a sl*t a few months ago? oh and the list of boycotts against his show?

Exactly! Great catch.

It would be nice if we could just find a way for folks to stay on the real issues so we can find a way to stop spending money we don't have.
