Hey President Obama is Right – She Didn’t Build That

So Sandra Fluke appeared with the President of the United States a few days ago to talk about “free” contraception and keeping the government out of our bedrooms. I will forgo the whole paradox of keeping the government out of your bedroom while the government now demands that I fund what goes on your bedroom for a minute. I was kind of hoping that they would go back to the You didn’t build that theme, because Fluke certainly didn’t earn her appearance with POTUS. Rush Limbaugh did. A case where the president is indeed correct, she didn’t build that.  Someone else made that happen.

And before liberals start in, I did speak out about Rush calling her a slut.

And we all know that that campaign would have had zilch, zero, nada energy and wouldn’t have had anywhere near the chance it had were it not for Palin.  No question about it.  The mistake on that ticket was not Palin.  Pure and simple.  Sarah Palin was not the mistake on that ticket.

Rush Limbaugh talking about Vice President Cheney’s assessment that Gov. Palin was a mistake for the VP nod in 2008

The Context of Rush’s Statement that the Media Won’t Report

“It has been observed that movies can reflect the national mood,” said Democratic advisor and former Clinton aide Christopher Lehane. “Whether it is spelled Bain and being put out by the Obama campaign or Bane and being out by Hollywood, the narratives are similar: a highly intelligent villain with offshore interests and a past both are seeking to cover up who had a powerful father and is set on pillaging society,” he added.

This comment was reported a full day before Rush made his comments on Bane, the bad guy in the upcoming Batman movie.  Of course the people on the left that are reporting this are leaving out this detail as well as taking Rush’s comment out of context.  He outright says that there are people out there who are not very well-informed will make the connection when the hear name Bain Capitol.  And let’s be honest here, there are many stupid people out there; sad but true.

Obviously I have not seen the new movie as it has not been released yet.  But I did see Dark Knight, and that was a story of good versus evil.  It attempted to make people to think about what you would do if you pushed to your limits and beyond by forces that are evil.  Would you go for revenge or would you do the Christian thing and forgive?  Not that it put it in a Christian context as such in the movie, but the premise remains the same.  This movie has been talked about as an extension of those themes.

Rush was responding to these comments as well as to liberal bloggers who made the connection.  The movie was written well before Romney was the nominee and Bane was a past character being brought back.  So there was never any connection intended.  But that didn’t stop the left from saying so.  But all of a sudden Rush is a paranoid idiot when he discussed the left making the comparison.

Media bias much?  Hypocrisy is thy name.

Rush Changing the Narrative

There are many on the right who are very unhappy, to say the least, about Rush Limbaugh issuing an apology for calling Sandra Fluke a slut.  They shouldn’t be.  The anger should be directed at him using the word in the place.  Above and beyond how derogatory the word is towards women, it changed the conversation; and not in a good way.

I understand what Rush was trying to do.  He was pointing out the irony of her claim.  But the truth is we know nothing about this woman’s sex life.  If you are thinking to yourself that you do, then when is the last time she performed a sexual act?  How many partners has she had in the past six months?  Is she heterosexual or homosexual?  Chances are you know none of the answers to these questions because she never discussed her sex life and what type of birth control (if any) that she uses.  She discusses the topic in a more generic conversation and talked about countless “others” who tell her their stories of woe.

What Rush and everyone else needs to be concentrating on is the first amendment.  The government trying to dictate to a church what is and what isn’t protected by the constitution, not her sex life.  Seriously, are you all that interested in her sex life?  I am not.  I could care less what she does in her bedroom. As long as it done by consenting adults, it is none of my concern.  What is my concern is how she is trying to push her will and her view-point onto the Catholic Church and Georgetown University.  She chose that school for a reason.  She went there specifically to try to force them to change their policy on birth control.  She did this before Obamacare and the mandates were even an issue.  She has been working on this for almost three years.

Look, birth control isn’t the issue.  I have used birth control in my life and I can guarantee you no one will be accusing me of being a slut.  Newsflash; not all conservative women are virgins when the get married and therefore use birth control.  Newsflash;, not all conservative women are looking to have large families; so they use birth control.  The issue is does the federal government have the right to force a religious institution to go against the doctrines and teachings of the church that has been around for thousands of years?  These church teachings have been in existence long before the U.S. was ever formed.

The left set the trap and we conservatives walked right into it.  This isn’t about sex, it isn’t about birth control, it is about liberty.  We need to do ourselves a favor and stop talking about this woman’s sex life and deal with the fact that she is trying to push her will onto the rest of the country; regardless of the constitutional protections that are in place.  We need to stop playing their game.  They wanted to paint conservatives as a bunch of people who think anyone who uses birth control is some sort of sexual deviant who needs us to tell them how to live their lives and what drugs they can and cannot put into their bodies.  That is a battle we cannot, should not  and will not win.  Americans don’t want the right telling them how to live their lives anymore than they want left doing it.  What Americans want is their freedoms and liberties to be protected.  Our job is to tell them that they are being ebbed away by an over-reaching, ever more powerful federal government in the guise of discussion on birth control.  If we keep the discussion on birth control and Ms. Fluke’s sex life they don’t see that they are giving away their liberties willingly in exchange for a $9 pack of generic birth control pills.

‎”Most people don’t get up every day, face the direction of Washington, and bow down and pray. Government is not first and foremost in people’s lives. That’s not how Americans are wired. But Obama wants us to be.”

Quote of the Day – Rush Limbaugh Edition Part 3

“Newt is trying to dredge up long-lasting negatives and have them attach to Romney (this is what’s so unsettling about this) in the same way the left would. You could, after all these Newt bites, say, ‘I’m Barack Obama, and I approve this message’.”

Rush on Newt’s attack on capitalism.

And my quote to Newt is the STFU.

 

Quote of the Day – Rush Limbaugh Edition Part 2

Now, I bring this up ’cause most people look at this, and I do, too, you know, I laugh at it.  Hey, Ms. Boxer, how many people have you killed with your abortion legislation?  How many people have you killed with your stand on abortion since 1973?  How many people, have been deaths, Barbara Boxer, are you personally responsible for? And to sit around here and talk about pollution killing 8,100 people, that Republicans want to kill people.  Now, the reason this is important is not for the obvious reason.  These are the kind of people, we’re told, that independent voters will skedaddle to and support if our Republican candidates dare get too critical of Barack Obama.

Rush Limbaugh on Barbara Boxer’s statement that republicans want to poison people.

‎”This smear of Herman Cain is about blacks and Hispanics getting too ‘uppity’ for liberals. That’s what this is. It’s Democrats saying, ‘You don’t achieve in American politics as a Republican, as a self-reliant individual or conservative. You don’t do it. You try it and we’re going to destroy you!’

Rush on the reports that Herman Cain has sexually harassed women in the past.
