"Rush Limbaugh doesn't know how birth control works."

Watch this video from Friday night's Rachel Maddow show. Hilarious. Sad, but hilarious:

"I think that Rush Limbaugh thinks you take a birth control pill to avoid getting pregnant each time you have sex, so the more times you have sex the more birth control pills you need." (source)

I'm going to echo what a lot of people having been saying: assuming Rush does know how birth control works, he's banking on the fact that probably a chunk of his audience doesn't. Generally, I don't give Limbaugh's rage the time of day, but this is pretty poignant considering the current political climate and the ongoing war on birth control and women's bodies, an issue that in 2012, shouldn't be an "issue."
