I was never a George Will fan, but I’m learning to respect his opinions lately. The current crop of GOP candidates and their supporters are so far right on every issue,they make Mr. Will actually seem extremely reasonable…

This morning on ABC, prominent conservative columnist George Will blasted the Republican leadership’s meek response to Rush Limbaugh’s sexist attacks on Sandra Fluke. Will mocked Speaker John Boehner for calling Rush’s language “inappropriate ” as comically weak, noting “using a salad fork for your entree, that’s inappropriate.”
Will also attacked the GOP presidential candidates timid response: “They want to bomb Iran, but they’re afraid of Rush Limbaugh.”

Just shows how out of touch with reality that this whole bunch is.
I used to be a big fan of Will. I go back and forth these days, but mostly I think he’s a generally-honest an intelligent person with whom I often disagree.
I think that this shows that he really is honest and intelligent. I don’t see how anyone honest and intelligent can support Limbaugh without acknowledging that he thinks women are less-deserving of respect than men.
