Holy shit, Rush apologised. He still hasn't heard or read Sandra Fluke's testimony, though, since he still thinks this is all about fucking. (1.5 million US women take the Pill exclusively for reasons other than contraception - about 13% of all women on the Pill.)

Mother Jones (amongst many others) suggests the obvious explanation for Rush's ignorance about the Pill - he thinks it works like Viagra. Here I leave you to draw your own conclusions.

He's an embarrassment to the United States, but a testament to our tolerance of free speech, I suppose.

(ETA: Tolerance is probably not the most apt word to use- most of us love free speech, and tolerate the abusers.)

He's only fauxpologising because sponsors have started dropping him.

Plus if Rick Santorum says you're being "absurd", you know there's something wrong.

It would take an absurdist to know it!
