Rush Limbaugh loses 7th advertiser over Sandra Fluke ???slut??? flap

[secdrl]

Oh and if free birth control can prevent ignorant lower class people, such as your parents, from having children, then I am all fucking for it. It prevents their uneducated children, such as yourself, from destroying our country.

Missouri to Honor Limbaugh with Statue—Really

 

[Zaphod]

I'm not against preventative pregnancy methods or woman's health issues, I'm just sick of paying for it. The liberals are out in full force today.

I'm just waiting for you guys to blame Bush for this.

I'll check in on this nonsense in a little bit. Training time.

The government doesn't pay for it. Unless you are paying into a health insurance plan you aren't paying for it. If you are paying into a plan then you are paying for someone else's health issues just as they are paying for yours.

 

[Zaphod]

Nothing is free except Gods Love so why should birth control be free? Oh wait it won't be I will be paying for it just like I pay for their groceries every month and every other entitlement program in this country! Have a nice day.

Limbaugh is a ratings whore.

He's given interviews about how he gets such high numbers of listeners.

It's all about ratings and attention, and to get those, you have to be a loud, shocking, rousing twat.

Limbaugh, and all radio yaks, are azzholes.

exactly.

but the thing that bothers me the most is the catholic church. I don't even understand why the catholic church makes arguments about tax money being spent on this when THEY DONT EVEN PAY TAXES.

It's all about control. The church wants to control every aspect of everybody's life. The catholic churches in my area are even selective about who they allow as members. If you don't make enough money then they don't want you.

At least two radio stations and several more advertisers have dropped him since yesterday.

I owe you reps. I believe this to be completely over his head though. He seems to believe the debate is about taxpayers picking up the tab.

Let me correct my original statement. I don't want to pay for it. (for all of the reasons I previously mentioned)

Zap, I agree there is some truth to this, but the government is infatuated with control. Thankfully, we have the protection of seperation of church and state. We may disagree on this, but many people, including the massive catholic church feel that the government is intruding into their decision making. But, that's a different thread...

This "debate" can be about whatever you want it to be about. How many times is it necessary to relay the foundation I'm basing my points on? If the thread was about woman's rights, then yes, I may be slightly off topic, but, I believe that the thread was supposed to focus on Limbaugh and his remarks. And as usual, the thread get's redirected into various directions.

Maybe you may be in over your head?

If you don't want to pay for it then you need to cancel your insurance plan. That's just how it works. There are services I don't want to pay for someone else to have and I'm sure they are paying for services me and my family are getting. Unless you pay for all your medical expenses out of your own pocket you are probably going to pay for someone's medical stuff you don't agree with. Getting upset won't change how the system works.

Everybody where I work that is in the company insurance plan paid for my birth control, a vasectomy. Just like I helped pay for someone's birth control pills or whatever they choose to use.

The idea of birth control being paid for by taxpayers is a GOP ruse to get people riled up about a complete non-issue. Where was all the ruckus back in the fifties when birth control pills first came out? There wasn't any. And there was a higher percentage of practicing catholics then than there are now. Not until this year and suddenly it's a convenient election campaign issue. It's a fucking smokescreen to take your attention away from the shenanigans the candidates are pulling all in an effort to be the next anointed one.

As it stands right now, I don't believe that are PPO insurance pays for selective birth control. The was the purpose of Ms. Fluke's testimony, correct? She wants the government (tax payers) to pay for her bitch control. I may be wrong, but I thought that birth control coverage was not a standard coverage option. My previous gf had to pay extra bi-weekly to have that coverage.

 

[hoyle21]

I have a PPO that covers birth control. Most PPO's do. The only insurance plans that do not cover (that I'm aware of) are for certain (mainly Catholic) religiously affiliated health insurance plans. The testimony, and thus, this debate is about religious organizations providing birth control for their employees. This could be hospitals, colleges, and students buying into the student health plan.

Okay, and that's where I think the issue is. Ms. Fluke is going to a catholic university and wants the government to pay for bc. Should the government force religous institutions to pay for bc methods? Since it's a private institution, I think the govt. is infringing on the seperation of C&S.

The government is not involved in anything to do with payment. She wants her school insurance plan, that each individual has paid for privately to cover birth control.

I don't believe it is anymore of an infringement of the establishment clause as the outlaw of polygamy, a ban on human sacrifice, or vaccination requirements.

Get that piece of shit off the air!

 

[Gissurjon]

Bullshit. Take your blinders off. Her testimony had nothing to do with "woman's health." It's all about the birth control pill and having immediate access to it for sexual activity purposes. Again, there are other methods of birth control that are far less expensive. Ex: Condoms, abstinence

HAHAHAHAHA, JUST SAY NO!....to sex

Aaaaalright Nancy, come back to the real world now..

nobody mentions that when the church gets its tax "break"

Or when it comes to religious texts in public schools, then its all of a sudden about "freedom of religion".



Nigga please

You are correct about this being a smoke screen but the problem isn't whether my insurance plan pays for it. The problem is does the church have to pay for it (at least for me). I personally think if a woman wants it she should have access but the church shouldn't have to float the cost. The church is against it and it has nothing to do with the members views. The church shouldn't bow to peer pressure.

They pay legal costs when the priest is busted having sex with little boys..... just saying

They only pay if the priest is acquitted as far as I know and I give you an example.
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/15/us/15priests.html I'm not saying the members of the church are always right just that the church as a whole is right.

Some welfare recipients have it better than you and I, bro. Thousands/month in government "assistance." Best part is, it's ALL "free."

ha..ha...ha...thousands? not even close

TANF is maxed out at 400 month for lifetime max of 60 months

food stamps most you can get is about 700/month with 3 kids, doesn't go up after that.

if you ever bothered to read any economic study's on the topic you would have learned about the long term economic effects when 2 presidents (Reagan & GHB) held the minimum wage stagnant for a decade while inflation reduced it to near nothing. i'm guessing you don't read any of the reports out of the OECD either on the subject.

bad economic policy has long lasting and many times permanent effects, increased poverty being one of them. people that think the effects of bad economic policy just "go away" when the date changes on the calender have no clue about economics.
