Very well stated.
It was just an amygdala fest, meant to stoke up their adrenaline and cortisol. And it worked. Those dumb rats kept going back and hitting the feeder bar to get their high.

He made many homes much uglier and sadder places to live. I saw first hand how he twisted decent people into hateful mean caricatures of themselves. And he laughed all the way to bank. Hard to imagine being that evil.

Let's be clear -- while Limbaugh was harassing Fluke, he was using his own insurance to pay for Viagra and about 300-400 opiod pills a month.
Why does he have any leg to stand on?

He was the most successful radio show host in American history. If he sat on your side of the aisle, you would have adored him. Let’s be honest.
But he would never be allowed to sit on my side of the aisle. Because we don’t celebrate the death of people from AIDS over here.
+1 We also know how birth control pills work and don’t shame women for using them.
He didn’t shame her for using the pill. He shamed her for demanding others pay for it.
That’s CRAP and you know it. Go back and look at what he said about her for weeks on end. When she testified about her friend who had to be on it due to it helping her endometriosis symptoms. You’re a lying sack.
I listened to Rush through all of it. I know I’m correct about this. I’ve been on the pill for medical reasons. It cost me $15/month per pack and they were often just given to me free by the handful from the doc.

What does it say about the college co-ed Susan Fluke [sic], who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex, what does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. She wants to be paid to have sex. She's having so much sex she can't afford the contraception. She wants you and me and the taxpayers to pay her to have sex. What does that make us? We're the pimps. (interruption) The johns? We would be the johns? No! We're not the johns. (interruption) Yeah, that's right. Pimp's not the right word. Okay, so she's not a slut. She's "round heeled". I take it back.

Tells you quite a bit about their personal politics at that point, doesn’t it?

I want to know how much of his nearly $1 billion fortune he gave away to charity in his will. When does that become public?

LOL. Love the disclaimer.
If you took them to prevent pregnancy, you'd just be another dirty slut, right?

Typical GOP.
Lie, cheat, steal. That’s all they have.
Projection.
Yes, the GOP projects 24x7.
