Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh, a disgrace for a human being, issued a personal attack this week on law student Sandra Fluke for her testimony on contraceptive availability, calling her a “slut” and a “prostitute”, and demanded that he and others get to see porn movies produced by her sexual activity!
What an insult and a humiliation for any human being to be so labeled by a reckless, irresponsible windbag and propagandist such as Limbaugh!
Only after Limbaugh lost six advertisers for his radio show did he issue a half hearted apology, but this is the manner that Rush Limbaugh uses regularly, and will continue to do so in the future.
The answer is to NOT accept the weak apology, and campaign to have more advertisers withdraw their commercial support of his program, and bring it down completely, unless Limbaugh decided to support his own program with his own fortune, which needs to be taxed much more heavily than it is!
And Sandra Fluke should sue Limbaugh, and attempt to take away as much of the ill earned fortune of Limbaugh as possible. It is certain that there are attorneys who will wish to make Limbaugh’s life miserable, and be willing to support Fluke, only earning their pay IF Limbaugh loses a jury trial for defamation of character.
This man needs to be shut up as a person who spews poison and promotes division for his own aggrandizement!
And we need to realize that Rush Limbaugh is a disgrace to any sense of morality and ethics, and has even outdone Newt Gingrich in having had FOUR wives, to Gingrich’s THREE!
And Mitt Romney’s refusal to comment on the whole matter is despicable, and demonstrates once again that he has no guts, no courage, no principle, other than his own advancement!
And for Rick Santorum to just use the word “absurd” for what Rush Limbaugh said is also disgraceful!
And kudos to Ron Paul for saying that what Rush did was in “poor taste”! He shows more guts than any of the other GOP candidates for President!
Hello Professor,
Gush Limblob thought his three days of nasty, vicious ranting, comments directed towards Sandra Fluke and now trying to pass it off as an attempt to be humorous?
This apology is once again nothing more than another example of his typical “Pant Load of Crap†slinging with the once again, “Wink and Nod†to his faithful listeners.
I can’t recall Viagra-abusing Rush ever arguing that Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs should be excluded from being covered by insurance, especially if the men are not married.
Remember when he made his sex tourist trip where he was caught with an enormous quantity of Viagra? Of course at this time he was also useing it mixed it with methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, “OxyContinâ€), and other stimulants, or opiates in an attempt to compensate for the common side effect of erectile dysfunction, a combination known as “sextasyâ€, “rockin’ and rollin’â€, or “trailmixâ€. Mixing with amyl nitrite is particularly dangerous and potentially fatal. (Damn I had such high hopes for this one) Many will remember when Rush was whining and crying that he was loosing his hearing trying to make people feel sorry for him;…it was because he was mixing these two drugs. I still don’t know why Rush is not sitting in a State Pen along with the other drug dealers society has found guilty of distribution and dealing in drugs.
Well now to continue, All Wing Nuts Chant In Unison, “Viagra YES, Birth Control NO!!†(now mindless repeat many times over and over again until every other sane person is fed up with you)
I guess next Rush will be putting forth and explain that he is just being informative and giving women the knowledge and the opportunity to utilize a more “HEALTHY†and “NATURAL†form of birth control…..called MENOPAUSE.
I can shed some light on why Mitt Romney’s refusal to comment on the whole Rush matter. Bain Capital owns “Clear Channel†and “Clear Channel†broadcasts “Rush Limbaughâ€, and “Mitt Romney†is one of the bigger owners of “Bain Capitalâ€. Now we have come full circle. As we have heard of the “six degrees of separation†linking everyone, I have just shown you the Mitt and Rush linking connections in three.
As far as Rick Santorum’s comments referring to Rush Limbaugh as being “absurdâ€; Oh yea Ricky has the moral high ground here…..in his fantasy dreams….Ricky’s latest political speeches directed to the “Non-Critical Thinking Conservative Religious Right†of late have been a “ME TOO†with this same subject.
Enough said about Mitt Romney, and Rick Santorum; now back to Rush Limbaugh. Here are some names of companies who had advertised on Rush Limbaugh’s show. Even though some have pulled their ads after the Dumb Ass’ remarks, I still feel a boycott is in order for even being supportive of his program before hand. It was not like they did not know what his show was about in the first place. Screw Them!!
The companies are as follows:
“Sleep Trainâ€
“Sleep Train,†one of the biggest mattress retailers in the country, and had been targeted before for advertising on Limbaugh’s show.
I guess they did not learn their lesson the first time around. NO MORE PURCHASES OF ANY SLEEP TRAIN’S PRODUCTS.
“Sleep Numberâ€
This past Friday, another mattress company, “Sleep Number,†announced through a spokeswoman that it had also pulled its ads from Limbaugh’s show.
Sorry for your poor choice in the beginning that associated your product with this Ass Hole. NO MORE PURCHASES OF ANY SLEEP NUMBER’S MATTRESSES.
“Legal Zoomâ€
“Legal Zoom†has suspended all advertising on the Rush Limbaugh show. BIG DAMN DEAL because “Legal Zoom†is a project of Robert Shapiro (same O.J.’s defense lawyer) and I don’t intend to find any reason to give them any validity. They are toast.
“Citrix Systemsâ€
“Citrix Systems†posted a message on their Facebook, “We have listened to our customers & have decided to cease our advertising on The Rush Limbaugh.â€
That is fine but you need to be punished for the past financial support of his show. Also please be advised that Bill O’Reilly mirrored Rush’s libelous statements. So I would suggest that you leave Fox programs completely. Your punishment is “No usage of any of your products or services for a year. At that time we will review your sincerity to the public and citizens of this country.â€
“Quicken Loansâ€
“Quicken Loans†made a public state of, “Due to continued inflammatory comments– along w/valuable feedback from clients & team members– QL has suspended ads on Rush Limbaugh program.â€
Well Quicken Loans, you too have made poor choice in the beginning that associated your product with Rush’s extremism. Your poor choice will also need to be discouraged with the use of your services.
I would ask all who know of anyone else who advertised on Rush Limbaugh’s program, to pass on their company’s name. They too will be boycotted cutting off their revenues.
I think Ms. Fluke handled everything quite gracefully, and from what I understand she is working hard to send the message that he did not just personally attack her, one person, that he attacked all women. I think if she were to sue him it would only reflect badly on her, not because he doesn’t deserve it, but because at the end of the day she will still be construed as the bad guy for standing up for herself. I can only imagine Rush supporters saying something along the lines of, “She’s being too sensitive and over reacting,” because you know, that’s women do. We’re emotional and stuff. *Sarcasm intended* After all, that was the reason women weren’t supposedly allowed into the congressional committee, because they might be become “emotionally charged” by the debate. As if women would start flipping tables and chairs or something!
I would absolutely love if Rush lost all ad income and shut down completely though.
I also researched to find out who Limbaugh’s sponsors were and have already written several e’mails AND received responses from some of them. I wrote 8 and have receives 5 responses. All have left Rish!! It appears from reading them, I was not the only person who wrote. I think the public response is certainly affecting their decisions to remain sponsors. Gosh this is fun! Anything that might take that disgusting excuse for a human being off the air gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling!
