Calling Limbaugh "the poster boy for contraception," Colbert said he was most concerned about two things. First, that Limbaugh's statements (e.g. "Have you ever thought of not having sex so often?") suggested a tenuous grasp of the basics of contraception.
"Yes, because that's how the pill works -- there's one for each sperm. They act like little baby deflectors," Colbert said sarcastically. "Rush knows what he's talking about, because every time he's had sex with a woman, he's had to slip her a pill first."
Over on "The Daily Show," Stewart also wondered about Limbaugh's understanding of birth control. "He seems to believe anyone using contraception is automatically having a ton of sex, and that contraception is something a woman has to pay for every time she has sex," he said.
But unlike Colbert, Stewart argued that Limbaugh wasn't worthy of so much media attention: "Personally, I don't get too worked up about the things Rush Limbaugh says because he is, and has been for many years, a terrible person."

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
