In a show of moral support, President Barack Obama called Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke on Friday defending her in the face of conservative radio icon Rush Limbaugh's "reprehensible ... personal and crude" attacks on her, the White House said.
The conversation, which lasted for "several minutes," came after Limbaugh branded Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute" for her support of women having access to birth control, Jay Carney, the White House press secretary, said. The president made the call right before Fluke was scheduled to appear on MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Reports.

*edit* This is what's deceiving about mainstream media. This article sympathized with her right off the bat, but left the juicy stuff towards the middle about what she apparently does/says according to Rush, and completely out of the clip. Thanks to bino for the call out and props to Rush for calling a spade spade if she really is a slut. /edit
Forgive me but I feel like rambling a bit. I'd like to know what someone like Rush would think about mandating sterility implants until members of society are proven mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially competent to reproduce. That would undoubtedly prevent a lot of the trash they complain about so much. Yet what are the chances they'd comply with something like that? Good unintended example of reaping what you sow, which is ironically part of God's brand of justice, no?
Humans have a self destructive element to their biological makeup. Blame hormones, (ironically the basis of our existence), or whatever else you want to. Expecting everyone to operate based on bible standards is no different than thinking there will be world peace some day (although some societies have managed to be an elite exception...but how much progress have they made? That's a whole other discussion: is our race for progress what will ultimately lead to our end? What drives us as people, and where the hell are we planning on going? Finding the key to every lock in the universe...End-game = God?). It makes it almost seem like the whole universe is God's riddle, and that the day it solves itself could be the day it implodes.
Or not. Maybe it would be the so-far-unattainable utopia.
