There isn't one iota of indignation from the left because they all agree with him.

You libs are all hypocrites, it's that simple.

No one is saying "YAY!" when libs do it either, however, this is by far the worst and most offensive jump made in recent news. Rush purposefully targeted a law student who was simply pleading OUR case. And as a young educated female, I was floored at his suggestion that the desire to protect oneself with birth control automatically makes you a ****. There are other things you do with those pills than slutting, and I do not at all appreciate those suggestions.

do you even know what this is about????


a female(named Sandra fluke) was demanding FREE BC,,saying they NEEDED it...why because they COULD NOT CONTROL themselves

face facts

it was HER OWN WORDS

SHE BENT facts...she said 3000 over """"the course of law school""""((( that would be 6 years)))

BTW BC(pill) ony costs less than $30 a month...that a dollar a day...even the patch is less than 30 a month

pay the freaking bill...quit asking for free

BC is cheap....why is she demanding it for free

Minestrin 1/20 Birth Control 28 day 1/0.02mg 3 Packs(3 months).......$69.50(23.3/month)
Micronor Discreet 28 day 0.35mg 3 Packs (3 months)......................$57.00(19/month)
YAZ Birth Control 28 day 3mg/20mcg 6 Packs (6 months)................$176.00(29.33/month)
Ortho Cept 28 day 0.15/0.03mg 6 Packs(6 months).........................$125.50(20.83/month)
Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo 28 day noDose 3 Packs(3 months).....................$54.00(18/month)
Ethinyl estradiol/norgestimate noDose 6 Packs(6 months).................$93.00(15/month)


but less than a dollar a day (1/4 the cost of a starbucks coffee) is too much for the fascist *******s

For the sake of free speech, UNC ought to think twice.

Number 7! Advertiser pulls out from backing Rush Limbaugh's show even after the "apology"... for derogatory comments about law student who testifed about health policies for women.

Due to complaints on Twitter and Facebook, ProFlowers pulled ads from the obnoxious show, stating these negative responses affected their marketing strategy.

Other six: Quicken Loans, Sleep Train, Sleep Number, Citrix Systems, Carbonite and Legal Zoom.

Complaints to the advertisers!
Info and list of some advertisers on topplebush.com as well as addresses to THANK THE ABOVE COMPANIES!

This whole thing is so dadgummed overblown. It's more media-driven garbage in an attempt to dispirit everyone (well, those that aren't leftists), and some of the TV folks probably don't know how radio works. Radio stations make decisions on local sponsors, and it's up to them what they wish to do. Regarding national sponsors (he actually said he didn't have any), they'll simply come back if they do pull out. Rush's real sponsors happen to be locally driven more so than on a national level.

Besides, unlike another celebrity host (who shall remain nameless), Rush has apologized. Let's move on from this.

I am boycotting these 7 companies. Pro Flowers is a rip off anyway.

I thought you had to be a Democrat to do that; or is it to get away with doing that all day long?
