Rush Limbaugh may have lost sponsors over the comments he made about college student Sandra Fluke after she testified before Congress about birth control. But while his sexist attacks and insistence that she was a slut turned off many Americans, it seems they actually endeared him to the Westborough Baptist Church (yes, that's the one that protests outside military funerals and says America is doomed because "God hates fags").
