Obama joins in assailing Limbaugh slur of student - Yahoo! News
NEW YORK (AP) Stepping into an emerging culture clash over women, President Barack Obama made a supportive phone call Friday to a law student who testified before Congress about the need for birth control coverage, only to be called a "slut" by Rush Limbaugh.
For Obama, it was an emphatic plunge into the latest flare-up on social issues. Democratic officeholders and liberal advocacy groups have accused Republicans of waging a "war on women" because of GOP stances on contraception and abortion rights, and Limbaugh's tirade on his radio talk show was seen as an escalation.
In addition to her call from the president, the third-year Georgetown University law student, Sandra Fluke, was backed by members of Congress, women's groups, and the administration and faculty at her Roman Catholic university.
Demands for Limbaugh's sponsors to pull their ads from his show rocketed through cyberspace, and at least four companies, Quicken Loans, LegalZoom online legal document service, and bedding retailers Sleep Train and Sleep Number, bowed to the pressure.
Obama considers Limbaugh's remarks "reprehensible," according to White House spokesman Jay Carney. He said the president called Fluke to "express his disappointment that she has been the subject of inappropriate personal attacks" and to thank her for speaking out on an issue of public policy...
Who's he kidding besides the Kool-Aid drinkers. Yeah, I go to Georgetown, but I can't afford condoms. Why can't the Government pay my cable bill too. Either her Vagina sees more traffic than Grand Central Station, or she is full of shit.
No, just pointing out potential problems with other options for Rush when all of his sponsors dump his ass like they did Glen Beck.
Wouldn't Glenn's sponsors need to have dumped Glenn for Rush's sponsors to dump his ass like they did with Glenn?
You are aware that Glenn is still on the radio, still doing his own show, and has his own station now right?
If Rush is going to end up like Glenn, then I guess it's safe to say that Rush has a bright future ahead of him.
Beck got kicked off Fox News.

And our biggest responsibility is helping others.
Ours, not the governments.
You just don't get it.
Bet ya a dollar to a donut that Chris hasn't lifted a hand to help anybody.
I work seven days a week and make 100K a year.
But thanks for thinking of me.
63% of Americans support Obama on this one.
Please keep talking about it, Rush.
Wow... all that and you manage to spend 24/7 on USMB too!
You're full of shit Chris.
Not hardly.
I sent the fed a 22K check last year.
And I didn't whine about it like you losers.
Bet ya a dollar to a donut that Chris hasn't lifted a hand to help anybody.
Yep. Statists want a life free of responsibility.
That's impossible. Nature and Nature's God have given us lives that are full of responsibility. It's only by accepting and fulfilling those responsibilities that we can be happy.

Beck got kicked off Fox News.
With ratings four times higher than anyone on MSNBC, Beck didn't get kicked off anything.
And he is more popular than ever.
You really are a bot, dumbass.

You think Beck left voluntarily? Huh..

I do. It's difficult to explain obvious facts to people.
