“They’re making it up. There’s a political agenda here. There is no real outrage.”

Rush Limbaugh, on reactions to Trayvon Martin’s shooting. (via theatlantic)

Oh, Rush… You were doing so well… Advertisers were coming back, even… And then you opened up your mouth again…

“
This is the reality of modern American politics: a large and cohesive bloc of voters lives in an alternative reality, fed fake facts by Fox and Rush — whom they listen to out of tribal affiliation — and completely unaware that it’s all fiction.

It’s also, by the way, why attempts at outreach by Obama will fail. Even if he gives the GOP 95 percent of what it wants, these voters will never hear about it; they will still know, just know, that he’s a radical bent on destroying America.

“Calling people names is bad, but calling people names based on your own invented calumny is the textbook definition of slander. The First Amendment does not protect you from that, nor should it. Even on an issue of public debate, and even if the victim is a public figure, as Ms. Fluke was here, ‘fair comment’ is not a defense if you made up the central fact, and the central fact is wrong and is damaging and if your intent was to injure. I’m no lawyer, but as I see it: Check, check, check, check.”

Gene Weingarten, on why Sandra Fluke should probably sue Rush Limbaugh. (via washingtonpoststyle)

This, Mr. Limbaugh, is why everyone is jumping off your show. You’ve finally been exposed publicly for who and what you are. It’s not a matter of using inappropriate words. It’s a matter of using inappropriate beliefs and then propelling them into the universe with your blow hard vehemence.

I, for one, hope she DOES sue.

Rush Limbaugh spends nearly 30 minutes responding to controversy over his comments made toward activist Sandra Fluke, calling out the Obama administration and his former advertisers in the process. [KFBK]

I listened to this ridiculous bile in its entirety. I deserve a medal. Even though my head nearly exploded when he brought up Sarah Palin, and talks about how other people bully HIM. He’s still blaming Obama and the Democrats for his actions. He is not taking responsibility for his actions, STILL! Just for using “inappropriate words”. So, he still has NO idea what the hell he did.

Ugh, this man..

But, what I particularly love is how he used the music from Cyndi Lauper’s “She Bop” after his commercial break. So, does that mean that as a woman, if I masturbate, I’m not a slut? Well, that’s a novel thought.

So, masturbating = totally acceptable, using birth control to regulate hormones = slut. Good to know.

That’s GOP logic for you. *smh*
