“We are he-man woman haters/ We feed girls to alligators/ Our clubhouse burned down mighty low/ But we’ve got a plan to make some dough!”

–The Little Rascals

Do Rush Limbaugh and the Republican Party realize that they’re turning into the Little Rascals? It’s Women’s History Month and you wouldn’t know it by the constant barrage of insults courtesy of the all boys club of the Republican Party.

Last week, 30-year-old Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke testified before Congress in support of national health care policies that would engage employers and other organizations to offer group health insurance that covers birth control for women.

Well that didn’t fly with Rush, who took to the airwaves lambasting Fluke with personal attacks, calling her a “slut” and “prostitute,” wanting to know why she was having so much sex.

As a result, 8 companies have pulled their advertising from the conservative host’s show. What’s so amusing is Rush’s idiotic approach to how birth control is even used.

Rush claimed that Fluke and her friends were “going broke” because of the amount of sex they were having. 

Rush knows what he’s talking about when it comes to pill popping considering he battled his own addiction to prescription painkillers.

So why is Fluke’s plea different from Rush’s?

Rush thinks that if you take one pill before you have sex you won’t get pregnant, so the more times you have sex the more birth control pills you need.

One pill a day keeps the baby away, according to Rush.

This isn’t Viagra dude, another pill Rush knows a thing or two about. Back in June of 2006, Rush was detained by drug enforcement agents at Palm Beach International Airport after they confiscated Viagra from his luggage while returning from the Dominican Republic. #Oops. 

We must be living in the dark ages. Republicans and their base still continue to steer the national conversation towards birth control and abortion.

Rick Santorum has gone on record favoring an amendment to the Constitution to ban abortion. He says that human life begins at conception and doctors who perform abortions should be charged as criminals.

Santorum didn’t end there, when it comes to contraception and birth control, Santorum said that the Supreme Court was wrong when it ruled in 1965 that married Americans have a right to privacy that includes the use of contraceptives.

Three weeks ago, Catholic bishops and men of other religions testified before Congress to discuss whether President Obama had hurt religious freedoms by a recent mandate that health insurance companies cover contraception.

And who better to talk about birth control pills and the female body than middle aged white men?

Rush is nothing but a bully. The rotund host and his idiotic views are out of this world to the point that they are comical. If it were up to Rush, he would feed all the girls to the alligators.
