Axelrod on Limbaugh: That wasn't an apology, it was a "quasi-apology"

“The lie was that somehow she was asking that taxpayers pay for contraception,” Axelrod said on ABC’s This Week. “The policy is that in basic insurance policies, contraception — contraceptive services, birth control, should be included.”

Axelrod added, “even in his sort of quasi-apology last night, Mr. Limbaugh continued that falsehood, and it needs to be challenged.”…

Axelrod said Obama “did the right thing” in calling Fluke, and “I think what Rush Limbaugh said about that young woman was not only vile and degrading to her, but to women across the country.”
