[SuperHornet]

Blogger Kirstin Powers agrees that Rush's actions were unconscionable. But she opines that NOTHING happened when Bill Maher and Keith Olbermann did the same thing against Sarah Palin and other women.

Is she hot?

[SuperHornet]

YOU make the call, kalm. The folk around here don't trust my opinion on THAT issue, for some reason.

Case, a simple yes or no will suffice. Is she hot? Would you give her your meat whistle?

[SuperHornet]

Yes. But you heard the screams when I declared love for Jennifer Capriati.

She's a dude, dude.

I'd pay good money to see a Jello wrestling match between her and Megyn Kelly.

Hahaha you almost had me there. We know it's ok because Sarah Palin isn't a woman.

You better take that back, or we will have Kate Upton pull her sponsorship of your avatar.

Ms. Upton and I have a special arrangement.

Looks as if mush is headed down the Imus road...what network will it be, the History channel?

It's stupid for Rush to lose his job because of this. Why are sponsors or anyone else surprised? He's a shock jock. No different than Stern or Opie and Anthony.

Proflowers doesn't have an issue with Stern throwing baloney at strippers asses, but it has an issue with Limbaugh being a dumbass all of a sudden?

Limbaugh is boring and a blowhard and if anything he should lose his job for not being entertaining.

I feel bad for listeners that are disappointed. What the hell did you think you were listening to?

It's all a PR move. Those sponsors have been with Limbaugh for years, and ALL will be right back on the airwaves just as soon as the heat is off.

I have to admit that there is some poetic justice watching a guy who has been a blowhard and a bully his entire career get pilloried by a bunch of blowhard bullies. That being said, this columnist makes a valid point that rage over comments are like this is selective. David Letterman can liken Sarah Palin to a "slutty flight attendant" and say that her teen-aged daughter was "knocked up," but the left couldn't care. They only get enraged by this type of dehumanizing speech when the women attacked is a liberal sacred cow.

Seems Limbaugh's listeners are boycotting advertisers who pull ads.

Who?

Let me speak slowly so even graduates of directional universities understand.

A liberal sacred cow is a women who spends $50,000 a year to attend Georgetown Law School and then thinks the school should pay for her birth control -- despite its faith-based objections protected by the First Amendment. You know ... a privileged young woman with the notion that her sense of entitlement is more important than other's fundamental rights.

It's a shame that the issue has been clouded by the course, personal attack by a blowhard.

This was a controversy only because Issa's congressional panel on birth control didn't have a single woman on it. And you should avoid calling woman cows Joe, it makes you sound like a blowhard.

Typical liberal blowhard. Reading something into a comment which wasn't even there.

This makes me as bad as Barack Obama, who used the expression "you can put lipstick on a pig," referring to something Sarah Palin had said. I'm going back to find the thread on that, because I'm sure you called Obama a "blowhard."

BTW, everyone, kalm is now a victim because I used the idiom "sacred cow" ... he's now entitled to special privileges.

And Issa's "birth control panel" was actually for the purpose of hearing testimony from religious leaders regarding their opinions about forcing religious institutions to pay for or subsidize birth control. It is a laugh riot that women and people dominated by women (like you) assert that it needed Sandra Fluke's opinion on the issue it was addressing.

More bad publicity for the Roman Catholic Church. Young women across the globe are sighing in disdain.

We all know that the catholics would be handing out condoms at mass if altar boys could get pregnant.



Sick fucks.

You're mean.

For the record, I felt all along that Rush's comments were actually decent smack and not really that big of a deal. The ensuing circus is what makes me laugh.

Somehow, faux indignation from left feels more disingenuous than faux indignation from the right.

Maybe it is because there are no self imposed limits on the behavior of people on the left.

Yeah, that's it, Toy Soldier.
