RUSH: Spokane, Washington, next. Dennis, I\u2019m glad you called. Thank you for waiting, and hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hello. Thanks for taking my call. It\u2019s been 22 years since we spoke, but I had to call in. These items all dovetail together. The Fluke<\/a> lady?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah?<\/p>\n

CALLER: She has contraceptives — and I am a Catholic, independent voter — she just didn\u2019t do her follow-through. She could have just got pregnant and had an abortion paid for.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Uhhh, you know, that is an interesting aspect of this that has not been discussed. I didn\u2019t take it out to that logical conclusion.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay. And also —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Wait, I want to make sure I understand with my hearing. I want to make sure I understood this right. She\u2019s got contraceptives. You\u2019re a Catholic independent voter. She didn\u2019t follow through. She could have just gone ahead and gotten pregnant, had an abortion, had it paid for — and that takes care of the consequences and all that?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And accomplished the same end.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Obviously, I\u2019m being satirical because of my Catholic upbringing, however —<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, now, you think you\u2019re being satirical. <\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m also being honest.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, the other side doesn\u2019t understand satire or irony or any of this. No, no, no, no. You\u2019re not permitted that.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, and I also have to get this in: You were absolutely correct. This is about socialism versus capitalism. And your listeners need to go back to 1920s and read Evolutionary Socialism. This is the 92nd year. It\u2019s a slow process, just like the Taliban. However, I have been out of work for four years. I\u2019m a casualty of the radio broadcast industry. I didn\u2019t get a penny of anything! I pulled my bootstraps up, I became an entrepreneur, I went out and made my own money.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Uh-oh!<\/p>\n

CALLER: You cannot do that in a socialist society.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019re now a target. You\u2019re now a target. You\u2019re an achiever. You\u2019re gonna be in the 1% regardless what your income is.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, exactly. But I get so tired of these people saying, “You know, I need more unemployment. I need this. I need that.” There are jobs, I don\u2019t care if it\u2019s… I cut firewood in the beginning just to make some money. I live 60 miles from the nearest Safeway store, but I don\u2019t owe anybody a dime and I\u2019m making my own money. In various sorts of ways, but I\u2019m making my own money.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Anybody can do it. I\u2019m so tired of this “Give me money.” I\u2019m tired of it.<\/p>\n

RUSH: That was the one aspect of feminism I liked, that women were gonna pull themselves up by their bra straps. But it\u2019s just vanished. Now all of these things that feminism had as its goals, they\u2019re gone. They really are gone. They\u2019re back to being subservient and dependent and demanding, and demanding dependence. Let me throw another thing. Thanks for the call, Dennis. Let me throw another little… oh, “think piece” into this. Georgetown University. It\u2019s a Jesuit school. Their policy is that they are not going to provide contraceptives. Ms. Fluke enrolled there knowing this. In fact, she\u2019s said (she\u2019s implied) that she enrolled there hoping to change this. <\/p>\n

So she enrolls in the place as an activist intent on changing their policy. How does it happen…? This is a very instructive point here, folks. How does it happen that we just accept the premise that she asserts that her RIGHT (put that in capital letters: her RIGHT) to free contraceptives is greater than Georgetown\u2019s right not to be compelled to pay for her contraception? The moment that this notion was posited, all of a sudden Georgetown\u2019s rights ceased to exist. Georgetown became an oppressor. Georgetown has had this policy for a long time. People that go there understand it before they enroll. The moment the activist, Ms. Fluke, asserts her right to free contraceptive, to handle her sex life — and it\u2019s, by her own admission, quite active.<\/p>\n

Then all of a sudden Georgetown loses its right to say no and becomes the oppressor! And then the president of Georgetown comes out calls me a “misogynist,” and he\u2019s the one denying her her pills. Not I, El Rushbo. Now, does a government with the power to compel Georgetown University, to provide contraception against its will also have the power to make you take the pill? Let\u2019s open the doors here. We\u2019re gonna open one door, and let\u2019s look at what else opened. You go to the government and you demand that they tell Georgetown that they have to give you your birth control pills. That government is now involved, just as they\u2019ve been involved in the school lunch program and it gives them access to the curriculum at the public schools. <\/p>\n

Does that government then have the power to make you take the contraception? <\/p>\n

Or, better stated: Does that government then has the power to deny you the contraception. Once you allow them the power to provide it to you, alternately, you are granting them power to deny it to you. Or you\u2019re allowing them to set circumstances under which you must behave before you can get it. All this is possible. Once you\u2019ve opened the door and allowed the government to tell the university they have to provide you contraception, does that same government have the power to make one of your co-eds take contraception against her will? “No, that would never happen.” Tell that to the men of Missouri where somebody wants to regulate vasectomies. Could that same government force you or your co-eds to have an abortion if the contraception didn\u2019t work? If the answer to any of these questions is, “No,” then what we have here is a policy debate, not a rights debate.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s what this is all about.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you what this means, folks, this headlong dive into contraception. It is evidence of the utter political and moral failure of their abortion push. They need a new plank to take the place of abortion because they\u2019ve lost that argument. And that\u2019s what this is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
