Ah yes, one of the many responses to the Rush Limbaugh controversy, which has of course caused a huge outcry in my homeland.

His "apology" said he was attempting to be "humorous" when he referred to Sandra Fluke as a "slut" and said she was a "prostitute" [if she expected her birth control to be paid for by her health insurance].

I must have missed the memo that stated it is now humorous to refer to women as sluts and prostitutes.

Got to love Republicans.

Ooh one of my fave responses comes from a female double act called "reformed whores" - they did a great song. Would google the link but am on myphone

SardineQueen · 09/03/2012 20:47

Oh that is GREAT Smile

Thanks!

Googling about rush brings this up which covers it all off quite well

SardineQueen · 09/03/2012 20:53

reformed whores song it is absolutely tip top and super duper( I didn't get the snob bit in the middle but it was still tremendous Grin)]]

blackcurrants - I hadn't seen that one, it's absolutely brilliant. I'm now in the process of e-mailing a link to all friends and family back home in the US. I'm sure none of them will have seen it, because if if any of them had, they'd have sent the link to me.

SardineQueen - Cenk Uygar is one of my favorite people, because he is what I refer to as a 'reformed Republican', in that he used to be one but now he is one of their biggest critics. Love him. Hearing Limbaugh's comments still make my blood boil.

ButterPecanMuffin · 09/03/2012 21:04

SardineQueen - It refers to Rick Santorum (one of the Republican/GOP Presidential candidates), who called President Obama a "snob" for advocating college education for the masses, and thus was interpreted as meaning that anyone who wants to attend college and further themselves must be a snob.

blackcurrants · 09/03/2012 21:05

Sardine the snob comment is something that Rick Santorum said.

The doofus.

Thanks for finding me the link. I was out on my bike, but now I am at home and must work again.

Just googled the snob thing, I am now fully informed Grin

aaah this chart is so great! It perfectly covers the "99% of American Women use contraception. ... all of them are therefore SLUTS!" problem.

Glad you like it - a friend in NY sent it. I thought it was good :)

Deeper and deeper he digs himself.

Rush Limbaugh - the poster "boy" of misogynists everywhere.

sportsfanatic · 13/03/2012 21:11

Gather he gets his viagra on health insurance making him a ...wait for it... male slut.

blackcurrants · 13/03/2012 21:26

but sports, there's no such thing as a 'male slut' - a male slut is a man.
It's women who are those awful dirty sluts, don'cha'know, with their [whispers] vaginas.

ButterPecanMuffin · 14/03/2012 18:18

Limbaugh's latest gem is, saying on his radio show, "how can I be anti-woman, I even judged the Miss America Pageant." mediamatters.org/mmtv/201203140008

He really has no idea.

mathanxiety · 14/03/2012 18:30

I wonder where he used to get his oxycontin from.

Old but good and it remains true that the Republicans need Rush.

'...the vital link to keeping a large percentage of Americans misinformed and angry at the WRONG people for the woes brought upon them by the ineptness and greed of the Bush Cartel.' True. And it is still the Bush cartel.
