Special Announcement from Rush

For over 20 years, I have illustrated the absurd with

absurdity, three hours a day, five days a week.  In this

instance, I chose the wrong words in my analogy of

the situation. I did not mean a personal attack on Ms.

Fluke. I think it is absolutely absurd that during these

very serious political times, we are discussing

personal sexual recreational activities before members

of Congress. I personally do not agree that American

citizens should pay for these social activities. What

happened to personal responsibility and

accountability? Where do we draw the line? If this is

accepted as the norm, what will follow? Will we be

debating if tax payers should pay for new sneakers for

all students that are interested in running to keep fit?

In my monologue, I posited that it is not our business

whatsoever to know what is going on in anyone's

bedroom nor do I think it is a topic that should reach a

Presidential level. My choice of words was not the

best, and in the attempt to be humorous, I created a

national stir. I sincerely apologize to Ms. Fluke for the

insulting word choices.
