You are going to believe this. Are you ready for this? From our old buddies at the Cybercast News Service: &#8220;The National Institutes of Health,&#8221; in the midst of sequester, &#8220;has awarded $1.5 million to study biological and social factors for why &#8216;three-quarters\u2019 of lesbians are obese and why gay males are not, calling it an issue of &#8216;high public-health significance,'&#8221; and this is exactly what I\u2019m talking about. What we need to find now are some 4,000-year-old lesbian mummies who are obese. I am not kidding. I\u2019m not making it up. &#8220;The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded $1.5 million&#8221; to some bunch of people &#8220;to study biological and social factors for why &#8216;three-quarters\u2019 of lesbians are obese and why gay males are not, calling it an issue of &#8216;high public-health significance.'&#8221; This is in the midst of the sequester. &#8220;The investigators say there has been &#8216;almost no\u2019 research devoted to this disparity, and they have set out to find the biological, psychological, and social factors behind it. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However, the NICHD said the future of the project is uncertain because of the sequester&#8230;&#8221; So 75% of lesbians are fat, and gay males are not, and that isn\u2019t fair, and that is unjust, and so we\u2019ve gotta allocate a million and a half bucks in the sequester to find out why, to get to the bottom of this. We\u2019re going &#8220;to find the biological, psychological, and social factors behind it.&#8221; I only hope that some of these 4,000-year-old mummies can be shown to be obese lesbians so that we can show that this isn\u2019t anything new.<\/p>\n<p>Because I guarantee you what they\u2019re gonna tie this to is the Republican War on Women. The whole point of this is, &#8220;You know, it\u2019s not enough that Republicans hate women. Now Republicans want lesbian women to get fat and sick as punishment for being liberals!&#8221; (interruption) Well, you think that\u2019s a stretch? (interruption) You think some&#8230;? (interruption) How can&#8230;? (interruption) Are you disputing the underlying facts in this survey? Are you telling me that 75% of lesbians are not fat?<\/p>\n<p>(interruption) What do you mean, you don\u2019t know? (interruption) Haven\u2019t you looked? (interruption) You can\u2019t? (interruption) That\u2019s right. You can tell that they\u2019re fat, but you can\u2019t tell they\u2019re lesbians. (interruption) How do they know? They are the government! They know. It\u2019s the National Institutes of Health, and they know. It\u2019s the government. They know everything. They know all. And whatever they say, you can\u2019t challenge. It\u2019s infallible.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/cnsnews.com\/news\/article\/feds-spend-15-million-study-why-lesbians-are-fat\"><img id=\"eZObject_73976\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" alt=\"original\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushCNSFatLesbians.jpg\"\/><\/a>So the government says 75% of lesbians are fat, and gay men aren\u2019t, and that isn\u2019t fair. And there\u2019s gotta be a reason for it, and they\u2019re gonna spend $1.5 million to find out why. We\u2019re gonna keep tabs on this, and when they finish this, I guarantee you there will be, as part of the explanation, something to do with party politics. It\u2019ll have to do with lesbians feeling oppressed and pressured by Republicans and conservatives and they eat more and so who knows? Why else do this?<\/p>\n<p>You think this is stretch, Snerdley, but who would have thought that the War on Women would work? But it did with the low-information voters, and it was created out of absolute thin air. It was created out of a question to Mitt Romney about contraception and banning it, which nobody had even been talking about it. So now we got a new issue: 75% of lesbians are fat. (interruption) You\u2019re not supposed to ask, &#8220;How do they know?&#8221; You\u2019re supposed to already be feeling sorry for \u2019em, and then you\u2019re supposed to understand why we\u2019re spending $1.5 million to find out why gay males aren\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Why don\u2019t they do a study of heterosexual women and find out why they\u2019re not obese or are or whatever, and compare lesbians to straight women and fat or thin? Why don\u2019t they do that, and then bring the Kardashians in it and then make some real inroads. But they\u2019re comparing men and women. I don\u2019t know. (interruption) What are the lesbians eating? (interruption) What is Mayor Bloomberg gonna do about it? Well, what are they eating? What do these fat lesbians eat that makes \u2019em fat?<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Doomberg obviously knows, or could tell us.<\/p>\n<p>He could do something about it.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Beverly in Melbourne, Florida. Great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I just wanted to give my opinion about how the government could save some money about this research about fat lesbians and skinny homosexuals.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yep.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_73959\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rush-DittoheadNationEmail.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay? It\u2019s like the lesbian woman, really, she doesn\u2019t have to deal with a visual, shallow man. She just has to please her partner, and usually women are less concerned with physical attributes and more concerned with a internal, like, you know, the way they think in their personality and so forth. And the homosexual man, he has to please a man, who is visual and shallow. Therefore, if a woman doesn\u2019t want to give up all her cookies and it\u2019s okay with her partner, no big deal, okay?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So, just to make sure I understand this, you think the reason that there are fat lesbians is that women are not that concerned with the physical attributes of the object of their love?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And men are? Men require the body; men require the good looks. So gay guys gotta stay in shape for the potential partner, but lesbos, it doesn\u2019t matter, as long as there\u2019s tea and cookies and a warm bed and love?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And intellectual intimacy, emotional intimacy, intellectual intimacy.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, right. Intellectual intimacy.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That\u2019s really not important to guys as long as she\u2019s a big figure.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: There you go.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: And big boobs.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Intellectual intimacy, yes. I\u2019ve never thought of it that way. Well, you may have a point. Who really knows?<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You know, folks, our last caller may have really nailed a point, because I think women will agree with me when I say that just in the normal ebb and flow of things, appealing to men takes a lot of effort. You could say that if it weren\u2019t for shallow men, everybody would be fat. But these shallow men focus only on looks, and so women work very hard to appeal to these guys, but women don\u2019t care as much. That\u2019s her point. She said, &#8220;Just give me the million and a half now, because I can tell you why lesbos are fat. Women are not nearly as judgmental. It\u2019s not nearly as hard to please \u2019em.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She may have a point. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You are not&#8230; Yes, you are.
