So female Clinton supporters - how many abortions have you had (Limbaugh says 2-3)
How can this numnuts still be alloweed a voice. So I'm guessing my friend's 10 year old daughter, who happens to be a big Clinton supporter, has had 2-3 abortions already

:grr:

" lot of these feminists and women ... think they're owed" a Clinton win; "they've had two or three abortions"

http://mediamatters.org/items/200804010009

On the April 1 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh said of a potential Hillary Clinton presidency, "ou have to understand the mindset of a lot of these feminists and women. They think they're owed this -- just like Obama supporters think they're owed this." Limbaugh continued: "These women have paid their dues. They've been married two or three times; they've had two or three abortions; they've done everything that feminism asked them to do. They have cut men out of their lives; they have devoted themselves to causes and careers. And this -- the candidacy of Hillary Clinton -- is the culmination of all of these women's efforts." He further stated: "And if it gets stolen from them, in their minds -- not actually stolen, but if the country or if the Democrat Party rejects this wonderfully great, lying woman in exchange for a rookie, radical black guy who can't tell the time of day, they are going to be so miffed. They are going to be so upset."

LIMBAUGH: And if they -- you know, if Hillary doesn't get it -- you have to understand the mindset of a lot of these feminists and women. They think they're owed this -- just like Obama supporters think they're owed this. These women have paid their dues. They've been married two or three times; they've had two or three abortions; they've done everything that feminism asked them to do. They have cut men out of their lives; they have devoted themselves to causes and careers. And this -- the candidacy of Hillary Clinton -- is the culmination of all of these women's efforts. And if it gets stolen from them, in their minds -- not actually stolen, but if the country or if the Democrat Party rejects this wonderfully great, lying woman in exchange for a rookie, radical black guy who can't tell the time of day, they are going to be so miffed. They are going to be so upset. These Democrats are absolutely right about the anger over all this, because they are -- both sides of this equation think they are owed this nomination

2. I really hate that man. My mother always said that hate is strong word. I agree.
That's why I am using it right now.

4. He's just pissed off because Repug nut jobs didn't get who they wanted in their primaries.
In his mind, at least.

5. Such a shame that limbaugh's mother wasn't a Clinton supporter
He and his brother and the rest of their ilk have never done anything FOR our country.

to this gasbag. His pronouncements get more and more hateful and reprehensible the longer he has an audience.

8. When you're a pathetic drug-addled thrice divorced sociopath...
Statements like that make sense.

Seriously, if you had an uncle that had problems with prescription drugs, been in and out of several marriages, won't shut up about politics, would you take advice from him on ANYTHING?

I'll take my cues from Thom Hartmann, thank you very much. Now there's a guy who walks the walk.

9. Nice of you to post this at DU.
Because I know the overwhelming majority of DUers cares what Limbaugh says.

10. I'm glad she posted it, because people forget that this is out there
A lot of people are seriously afraid of having women in power, and this is how they frame it.

11. Hey, Rush--thanks again for that Democratic Senate majority!
We wouldn't have it without your politically brilliant moves in 2006--specifically, mocking Michael J. Fox and ensuring Claire McCaskill's victory.

You're about one-tenth as clever as you think you are, which is why you're going to get fucked again this year from blow-back.

13. I think this will drive some woman to support Hillary, when they might not have before. He knows
what he's doing. He wants her to be the dem nominee.

15. Of course he does - Limbaugh's whole career is based on Clinton's in the white house or
running for the White House.

What happens when she's out of the race

18. That's exactly my thought on this.
He wants to be "Queenmaker" in a sneaky, slimy way. No woman in her right mind should listen to this drivel as he's just trying to undermine us. Never give power to the enemy, even if they seem to be on your side, y'know? Just my opinion though. :)

14. Will Hillary go after Limbaugh?
Like she went after Wright and Kerry and Imus and Schuster and Matthews?

Or does he just help her play victim so well that she prefers to have him as a useful idiot.

16. Rush is the cure -- "I won't vote for ___"
If Rush is against them, you have to be for them.

17. He's such an arse
I know many women who are supporting Hillary; good friends of mine. As I'm sure is the case for many of us. Heck, I was supporting her not too long ago.

But none of us fit the demographic put forth by this numbnut.

Isn't it scary that he carries so much weight (no pun intended) with the right wing!

19. Oh the sense of entitlement
Of Black people and Women. Poor Rush. These two groups get EVERYTHING! And two or three abortions to boot, no doubt many of them WHITE MALE BABIES!

And "they've been married two or three times?" BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

"they have devoted themselves to causes and careers." Isn't that the reason Rush has been married at least twice? At least the cause of Hillary supporters isn't the destruction of the constitution!

20. To actually answer the question
I am not a woman but if I was the answer would be a resounding "none of your fracking business Limpballs"

21. Since the Bible Belt has more teen pregnancies...
and the religious right is more embarrassed by unwed pregnancies in their families, I wonder if the abortion rates aren't actually higher among them.
