I listened to the radio clip of Rush and he was not joking, but he did back track once he realized what he said then made the comment he was joking and just frustrated. This man hates women and it is very clear and more than obvious just by listening to all his rantings about women, their rights their bodies etc.. I think his little "back track" comment may be a sign that he did get hurt financially from all the Sandra Fluke comments and others and now he is having to temper his comments a bit. For him that is a real challenge as the man has no impulse control what so ever.
I for one hope he says more outrageous stuff and carries on as the imbecile that he is, because he may not realize it but he is affecting his business, his radio show and not in a good way. His behavior and nonsensical rantings are catching up with him.

Rush's on air personality is meant to be provative. His comments are often satirical and over the top; they are intended to annoy liberals. Some dim witted people don't recognize ironic humor, and take all Rush's comments literally. These are the people that hate Rush.
Rush's ratings are higher than ever. The recent controversy over his comments on, slut prostitute, Sandra Fluke have actually caused his ratings to increase. The attacks on Rush only make him more popular. Many people started listening to Rush after the (slut prostitute) Sandra Fluke controversy, just to see what all the fuss was about, and continued listening, because they discovered that Rush is not a hate monger, like his critics have claimed.
