Limbaugh fired an opening salvo in this regard today when one caller
called in to complain about the problem of 18 year olds having the
right to vote. Limbaugh, without missing a beat, fired back:
Limbaugh later clarified that this was purely a joke, but that those
who found this line of reasoning persuasive could read Ann Coulter’s
arguments on the subject (For those in Rio Linda, as Limbaugh might say,
Coulter is herself a woman). So why did Limbaugh make this remark if he
doesn’t believe it? Simple – to see which liberals would pick it up and
run with it.
It seems to me these "people" are so busy looking for things to be offended over, they forget that satire is funny.

“I can do one better than that. When women got the right to vote’s
when it all went downhill,” Limbaugh said. “Because that’s when votes
started being cast with emotion and maternal instincts that government
ought to reflect.”

+11It always amazes me when liberals pick up on his "media tweak of the day" and run with it. It only proves that they run their entire lives on soundbites and political correctness. Perhaps they should stop and at least try to think, just one time. No one plays them better than Rush!
I would assume you need it broken down for you.
Government does not "make" anything. The only way they have revenue is to take it from the private sector, print it out of thin air, or borrow it. All of their actions depress the economy, because they only have the power to destroy. If they take the money from the person in the private sector, use that to buy food, and give that food to a person, there is no economic activity. It is taking a dollar from one pocket and putting it into your other pocket. Nothing of value is created.
And then he lies when claims that it was "a joke", to soften the public backlash to his misogyny, bigotry and ignorance.
But you will of course believe any excuse he produces and, had he followed up his nonsense with a reinforcement of the statement, you'd be supporting his anti-women demagogery right now, like the gullible little brownshirt that you are.
