Would Rush have gone on the air to call him a slut? Would conservatives be appalled that a young unmarried male was having sex? Would the conservative debate focus not on the cost of contraceptives, but rather we should allow young unmarried males to have sex and get away with it?

Right, that's what I thought.

What I found that was funny, were all the radio callers defending Rush

It has to be sooooo embarrassing to be a Republican now a days.

The more extreme don't even seem to notice...completely oblivious to how extremist their views really are.

Exactly. I tried to tell him that before but he pulls a Bonk and keep repeating the same thing over and over. They think they are in the right and don't care what the other side says. Jut look at Mastboro.

What I don't get is the whole "wants us to pay for her to have sex" thing Rush is spewing about.

The issue was if insurance companies had to offer contraceptives as a basic service, not if the government had to fund that basic service. No one is saying the government should reimburse private insurance companies for any costs associated with birth control pills. No one ever has.

Rush has not only proven himself (again) to be a stupid, sexist, shit bag....he has also completely misrepresented reality (again).

I'm sorta sad anyone is stupid enough to believe and support the guy. Not because I give a damn about such idiots, but because I have to share a country with them. How god damn stupid would you have to be to get your "information" from such a useless shit?

I saw him on the news and I didn't quite get his reasoning. But then I don't get a lot of what he spews.

Nope. Id tell em the same thing. Go to planned parenthood and spend 15 bucks a month and get your birth control and a free bag of condoms.

3000$ a year for birth control? WTH? You can get it for 10-15 a month. But if she made some cuts in her budget she could for sure make it. I bet her cell phone bill is 10x more a month than that birth control shes begging for. Idiots. Male or female budget your dang money and take responsibility for yourself and stop living off hand outs. Thats your own responsibility. Not the insurance companies responsibility to provide it for you. People are so used to being catered to. Its sickening.
