When one is outraged enough the mind goes to extreme places. Most of us can admit that. When someone cuts me off in traffic I may call them something awful, so my mind went - there. It doesn't expose me for being a pervert if I said something in anger. I would still defend it because that person did something wrong. Limbaugh is very passionate about his politics and he went there, it isn't a crazy stretch.
Limbaugh is an experienced entertainer. His "anger" was pure show-biz.

She NEVER lied and you have NO proof that she did.
For openers, advertisers NEVER choose the radio stations on which their ads air.
That certainly applies to major advertisers such as P&G and GM, whom Rush has personally banned from airing ads on his show, as Radio-Info.com: Radio's Online Community columnist Tom Taylor reported in his industry newsletter this week.
Nevertheless, there are some mom & pop radio small business owners who won't advertise on certain radio shows, even if they wind up taking a financial bath because the station on which they're placing their ads has a miniscule number of listeners compared to the powerhouse stations which carry Rush, Don Imus, Steve harvey and other syndicated personalities.
Advertising agencies are given a demo to buy based on age, income and other specifics as directed by their clients/advertisers, and then they place those ads on the stations to which those listeners in that targeted demo listen.
The chances of any station which carries Rush Limbaugh flipping to Mexican programming within a week are about equal to the chances of Al Sharpton becoming the next governor of IDAHO!!!!!
Flipping a radio station to another format takes extensive and very time-consuming research, and is never a snap decision; the industry simply doesn't work that way.

Rush is just a good example of why the USA is going down the drain. His show appeals to the lowest of the low. Racists, ignoramuses, red necks, small minded haters of all stripes and other assorted low lifes. The simple fact that a guy like this actually has a voice in the national politics of the country paints a very dark picture for the future of the USA.
Just in case you didn't know, Limbaugh is so well off financially that I doubt he is very worried about which advertisers leave. He has more listeners than any left wing talk show host has ever had. He sure is not worried about a nobody, blowhard, buying from his advertisers either.
Liberals didn`t work to shut anyone down.It`s the way free markets work.Calling millions of potential customers sluts and prostitutes is never a good idea.
That's all that liberals do, they want to shut people down, no debate no discourse because liberals hate it when people disagree with them. They don't want to debate the issues they want to tear a man down.

When you're a major spokesperson for a whole political movement, your comments are going to be open to scrutiny and rightly so. Whether republican or democrat you can't escape the fact that he has alienated women of all sides of the American political spectrum. In this case he reverted to the mindless male stereotyping that weak men rely on when they run out of logical arguements. When you are referring to women as "Overly educated, sluts and prostitutes" in the same breath you tend to lose all credibility with all women and most men. It does seem that many are recognizing him for what he is and has always been; an over inflated gas-bag with a big mouth. "Overly educated sluts"..............Really?

What does this post even mean?
As has been shown numerous times, conservatives listen to radio, liberals tend to read their news.
Maybe because they can.
If Rush is so rich, he might just want to just walk away and enjoy his cash.

Lots of free time is a trigger for many drug addicts.
You obviously do NOT care what a talk show host says about women.....
No, I'm correct, people who support what Rush said WILL obviously be sending videos of their Mothers, daughters, sisters having sex because they see NOTHING wrong with what Rush said or how he lied about, and slandered, a private citizen in the most vile terms FOR THREE DAYS .....
Slandered? I don't think so. This women was there representing the reproductive rights of women. That's what Rush saw. The health argument was just disingenuous - one student needs contraceptives for a medical condition and the school needs to change their policy. It's now a health issue and a woman's right. What nonsense. No respect for the school's faith based policy against promoting sex.
The only reason Fluke was called is because her group sees reproduction as being a woman's choice. Just like abortion. So it follows that a woman's right to have sex without getting pregnant should be protected by law. Which means, in the end, everyone has to pay for it.

Hey, Kat, you sound like what that misogynist pig Limabaugh refers to as an "over-educated woman"....
