When people like our dear friend Rush go off on anti-women tirades many of us liberals are perplexed and ask ourselves "where does this stuff come from"?
Well fundamentalist conservatives tend to believe everything in the Bible -- which has some interesting things to say about women. So maybe this hate of women has its roots in the Old Testament. That's the premise of the authors of the following linked articles.

A Bible verse I found most interesting (and related to the metaphorical stoning of Ms. Fluke) is Deuteronomy 22:20-21 which directs men to stone unchaste brides to death.
