Either Limbaugh badly misreads the statement or he's talking about the kind of "seduction," in the Blurred Lines video. If he's really as smooth as he thinks he is, then there should be no reason that straight up asking somebody if they want to have sex is "taking the romance out of everything." But then again, I'm just a virgin beta male, so maybe I don't get it.
    If that's the statement he's objecting to, then his statement and the statement in question have very little to do with one another.

      Yeah, you're probably right.
      O Gladsome Light of the Holy Glory of the Immortal Father, Heavenly, Holy, Blessed Jesus Christ! Now that we have come to the setting of the sun and behold the light of evening, we praise God Father, Son and Holy Spirit. For meet it is at all times to worship Thee with voices of praise. O Son of God and Giver of Life, therefore all the world doth glorify Thee.

      A neat video of dead languages!

            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              You actually believe being raised by a feminist causes small penis size? http://www.salon.com/2014/09/15/rush...ow_to_spot_it/
              What you have to learn about Limbaugh is that not everything he says is meant to be taken seriously -- sometimes he says things tongue-in-cheek, or he satirically expresses a contrary viewpoint as if he's serious -- simply to rile up his opponents who love taking him out of context at every opportunity. It almost serves as an in-joke for his regular listeners.

                  Well, it is starting to look like many if not all of the accusations are false.

                  http://dailycaller.com/2014/12/12/hi...oubt-on-tales/

                  A number of women who have accused comedian Bill Cosby of sexual assault either have factual contradictions in their accounts or have personal histories that cast doubt on their claims, The Daily Caller has learned.

                  Five of Cosby’s recent accusers, including multiple women currently or previously represented by prominent feminist attorney Gloria Allred, have engaged in statements and behavior that warrant increased scrutiny of their public accusations against Cosby.

                    Nothing good has ever come out of any story with the name "Gloria Allred".
                    "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

                      I could buy 1 or two or even 3 but not 20.... it is looking like a vendetta. I don'y even want one to be true. but he already settled it....

                        Yeah, why would he want to settle before it ever went to trial? I mean, it's not like the allegations alone could do serious harm to his career or anything. He has no motivation at all to want to avoid being accused of something like this.

                              Here's what's super sad....Even if Cosby had an affair (I wouldn't put it past him) a drunk relationship with a stripper or a woman (well....it IS Hollywood and I would NEVER excuse the behavior) or exploited someone at the playboy mansion while ahem drunk and even a bit stoned... (what a shock bad behavior includes a stripper and Hugh Hefner)
                              I can speculate even guess what actually happpened. I doubt it was actually rape.
