Did the host of this show seriously compare the horrible, brutal physical rape of the woman in India with the treatment of Ms. Fluke? What an offensive and disproportionate connection. It would be like using Newtown as a lead-in for someone who verbally challenged your kid.
This is NOT sanctioning what Limbaugh said, but please keep these issues in proportion and don't trivialize the venal brutality of the first act by connecting it to what was simply a lousy political debate.
