Rush's remarks were worse than I thought [View all]

I watched this clip from Colbert this morning, showing a few of Rush's comments that I hadn't heard about. He called Fluke a sex addict, and wondered how she could even walk. He pondered how much birth control her parents bought her in junior high school. It was really slimy.

Seriously! Sandra Fluke is 30 years old. It's not like they had a teenager asking for contraceptive coverage.

And according to Rachel's program last night, he spent much of his Monday show stressing how unrepentant he is. I'm amazed that he just keeps digging that hole.
