Grant Teaff is indeed a great speaker and a great man! However, this article was once again an inappropriate swipe by Waco's newspaper aimed at conservative values.
Not sure why you say that if you read the article and not just the headline. Rush comes across as very gracious and a decent guy.

Exactly as he always did. And that headline is obviously just an attention grabber as it has nothing to do with the story if you read the thing in it's entirely.


Wife's a lawyer. She will never forget Limbaugh's saying women shouldn't serve on a jury if the accused was "a stud." Or him calling a married law student a **** for wanting her medical insurance plan to cover the pill.


What would be the proper term for someone who wants another person to pay for their decision to have sex?
A female litigant seeking child support.

And she'll probably get it too.
Is the other person paying for sex or paying to support the child he helped make? Can you distinguish the two?
Why was or is it Limbaugh's business what the woman does?

A young woman testified before a congressional committee.
Because she made it a public issue when she decided to testify before Congress and request that other people pay for her and her fellow students' personal decisions.
That's not what she asked.

But you know that.

How many married couples do you know who don't have sex?

How many who plan how many kids they're going to have?

here's one area where Limbaugh was really wrong. It didnt cost extra for the plan to include contraception. Most medical plans do. So nobody was paying for anybody to have sex by requiring Georgetown to include the pill in their plan. But that dishonest talking point sure worked with you.
Why should I or anyone else pay for anyone else's decision to have sex--married or not? Stop defending grifting and law students' decisions to have sex whether inside or outside of marriage.

In a blog post, Landsburg argued that while the talk radio host's language may have been off-color, Limbaugh's logic was analytically shrewd. Fluke, Landsburg writes, "deserves only to be ridiculed, mocked, and jeered" for saying that women should have access to contraception."
He adds that Limbaugh's demand that Fluke and other Georgetown students post online sex tapes in exchange for contraception was actually a "spot-on analogy":
"If I can reasonably be required to pay for someone else's sex life (absent any argument about externalities or other market failures), then I can reasonably demand to share in the benefits. His dense and humorless critics notwithstanding, I am 99% sure that Rush doesn't actually advocate mandatory on-line sex videos. What he advocates is logical consistency and an appreciation for ethical symmetry. So do I. Color me jealous for not having thought of this analogy myself."

Limbaugh trashing fluke like he did wasnt popular with advertisers and some boycotted him and Cmulus dropped him. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2013/05/rush-limbaugh-contract-sandra-fluke/315587/

The woman he trashed was a better person than him

Aspirin is inexpensive. Not a bad idea.
