Or Rush Limbaugh's a bullying douchebag occasionally made to pay the (very low) price of his bullying. One of the two.
Oh, I see - he now "bullied" this woman.
Let's review - woman makes herself a public figure by airing her views on an issue.
Talk show host who is on the other side of the political spectrum who specializes in doing parodies and having fun at the expense of others - no different than Bill Maher or countless other lefties who do the same thing -- makes a parody out of said student.
This is something he has done thousands and thousands of times before.
But now, because it is an election year the left needs a cause - they come up with this whiny ass story about "little poor Sandra Fluker who is being picked on by the big bad wolf......"
Give me a break. It is all pandering and election-year BS.
These sponsors who are now "outraged" are minimal in terms of how they are going to hurt the show - a fact that is never written - and frankly they knew what they were signed up for long ago.

What was the parody?
You're an idiot when you talk like this.

And zag, real men don't talk about women that way just because they disagree politically.
zagoshe said:Of course, the same people who are criticizing Rush Limbaugh for using a word - a word -- would go to the mat for him and defending him to death if he merely sexually harassed women and had interns suck his deck and squirted on their dresses then lied about it as long as he voted Pro-Life and talked about how he is a man from a place called hope.......

Oh, so now you are a tough guy trying to determine what "real men" say or don't say - as if Rush Limbaugh qualifies as anything more than a forking talk show host.
Of course, the same people who are criticizing Rush Limbaugh for using a word - a word -- would go to the mat for him and defending him to death if he merely sexually harassed women and had interns suck his deck and squirted on their dresses then lied about it as long as he voted Pro-Life and talked about how he is a man from a place called hope....... :
And I'm not sure why this thread would get locked - we're having a discussion.
