Watching the GOP rats scrambling around trying to process Limbaugh, their main hate-speech spewer and rabble-rouser, after he joined the Catholic Church in attacking the virtue of ALL American women would be funny—if I were just visiting this silly nation.
First, Limbaugh attacks a young woman, Sandra Fluke, who made perfectly sound arguments before Congress about why women students (and employees) at Catholic-run organizations need to have mandatory contraceptive coverage in their insurance policies.
Limbaugh could have just denounced her as a Kenyan-Islamo-Commie-Rat (KISCOR) sympathizer, or dismissed her as a stupid woman, and who listens to them anyway—i.e. the standard white male dismissal of female uppitiness. But what he decided to do was to take off the gloves and show his, and the GOP's, true heart and hatred.
He took hold of Fluke, and punched her right in her face—calling her a "slut" and a "prostitute" because she (and 99% of all American women) wanted to improve her body's health and responsibly control her fate by using contraceptives.
As Limbaugh revealingly demanded—he wanted to have Fluke send him sex tapes of her in return for his paying for her contraceptives. He might as well have demanded the whore be burned at the stake or something.
He was so bursting at his already horribly strained seams with hate, this time he pretty much blew to bloody blubbery pieces, like Monty Python's Mr. Creosote. Thing is, Rush isn't a right-wing extremist. He's a right-wing mainstreamer. And that mainstream, really the brownshirts in its blogging and trolling corps, are out today spreading lies about how Fluke was never really a student, and was just a shill—apparently also a kind of Delilah-like seductress sent out by the Dems to lure in Rush Limbaugh and his bucket of dumb. Well, if so, mission accomplished!
