Rush Limbaugh served up their "Sista Soulja" moment (sp - sorry) on a platter. Litterally all they needed to do was to was to forcefully and simply call out Rush's vileness. Hell - they didn't even have to agree with Ms. Fluke, just say something like "No one should be vilified and called a slut for exercising her right to speak her opinion. We thing Mr. Limbaugh should aplogize to Ms. Fluke for his attack."
Someone could have been a hero. He or she (arent' there one or two republican women out there - Sarah, what's her name from Arizona) could have "proved" that this was about religious freedom and not an attack on women.
But they just couldn't bring themselves to do it, could they?

Most of all they want to INCREASE inequality by spreading hate and death thru WAR.
May they all be rotting in their graves soon.

What surprises me is the resounding silence from Republican WOMEN on this hateful labeling of women by Rush, and by proxy, the GOP.
The number of women who are still taking part in the Repugnant Primaries and Caucauses chosing Willard or Newt astounds me.
