    Even though 22 advertisers have pulled ads and 2 stations have pulled "El Rushbo" of the air.

    SeekingArrangement.com

    Lol... you can't make this (*)(*)(*)(*) up. It writes itself!

    What is seekingarrangement.com? A website that matches young women with rich "sugardaddies".

    “Many will question why we are supporting Rush Limbaugh even though he is guilty of using the same terms that many in mainstream media have used to describe Sugar Babies, there are three good reasons. First, the right to free speech should never be subjected to boycott. Second, Limbaugh’s show appeals to the largest Sugar Daddy demographic. Third, while many in the mainstream media have yet to apologize for mistakenly calling Sugar Babies prostitutes, Rush Limbaugh did.”

    Wow, there's some family values for you. Lol.

    Not that I'm adverse to the idea of the "sugardaddy" but how does it fit into the traditional family that the 4-time-married-Viagra-popping-while-on-a-sex-tour-to-the-Dominican-Republic-no-children-having Rush Limbaugh's espouses through his bloviation over the airwaves?

    Oh... nevermind. I've answered my own question.

    Still children Rush? Your "wives" aren't using BC are they? Somebody is either a hypocrite or shooting blanks...

    Hi-(*)(*)(*)(*)ing-larious.

    So the logic is:

    Young attractive woman, who doesn't want to make money for herself, and instead actively seaks to find a very much older man, who will pay for her stuff =/= anything like a prostitute or slut. This is morally fine.

    Young woman, who is actively seaking to support herself, to work hard to get an education towards that end. She would like to see her HC insurer (not the US tax payer) to pay for female HC (in some cases used as a HC treatment for ovarian cysts). This woman is a prostitute and slut.

    This is the logic and reasoning of a man, who clearly objectifies young attractive women, just so long as the pretty young things don't have any opinion of their own.

    It reminds me of this piece of comedy gold, which I assumed had little truth in the year 2012 - I was sadly wrong.

    It's starting to look like another Glen Beck *laughs uncontrollably*.

    At last the fringe right in the US starts to break up. Shortly O'Reily will go the same way...

    I'm not following your logic. Doesn't the young woman, "actively seeking to support herself", want free stuff?

    Yet another reason why we need to go further in Obama's second term and create a single payer system.
    Insurance companies will never serve the best interests of the public.
    They can continue to operate for the rich who have the money to burn, but for the rest of us, we need a solid national healthcare system.
    It's already partly there with Medicare. We can expand that to become universal health care and then focus on rooting out loopholes and practices that permit corruption and fraud.

    I understand that. I'm on the fence regarding the issue of BC in insurance policies, but this thread is not about that, this thread is about an indivvidual who crossed the line of decency and is now suffering the consequences.

    I think it's called blow back.

    No, not deflection. I was exactly on target. Let's go back to the initial post on the thread:



    The OP was mocking one of Rush's sponsors for providing "sugardaddies" for young women, and that is exactly what Sandra Fluke wanted; someone to pay the bills for her.

    Frankly, I was right on target, but I hate it when the slower posters don't get it and force me to spell it out. It takes away the emphasis.

    Just more of the double standard.

    Where was the ad pulls from MSNBC and Shultz? He called Laura Ingram a slut.

    Where was the ad pulls from CBS and Letterman? He called Palin a slut and called for the rape of her underage daughter.

    Where was the N.O.W. criticism of Gov. Jerry Brown's wife when she called Meg Whitman a "whore"?

    Where was HBO's actions when Bill Maher called Palin a "dumb C-word"?


    The false outrage generated by the media to go after these advertisers is nothing less than propaganda... sadly it works on far too many zombies.

    Rush certainly stepped in it... and he apologized unlike Maher and Jerry Brown's wife.

    But... the really story is that a Democratic Party operative can misrepresent herself and then lie in front of congress and the National News Media won't even report that aspect of the event.

    The woman is not 23, she is over 30. The woman does not have to pay $1,000 a year on contraception, she can pay $9 or less. She is not some innocent young student, she is a known hardcore left wing advocate that thinks sex change operations should be paid for too.

    All this propaganda for the willing idiots amazes me. I didn't really know how intellectually dishonest and disingenuous the left wing and their National New Media really is. We have a serious ethics issue amongst the left wing and our media in the United States.

    LoL. Rush isn't going anywhere. His advertsers will be replaced immediately and they'll benefit exponentially IF they are conservative. Frankly i'm glad this happened. I assumed his advertisers were conservatives. I won't be making that mistake again.

    The real hypocrisy is by the National News Media and their coverage of the event in comparison of how they ignored Bill Maher saying worse about Conservative women.

    The real hypocrisy is from no advertisers pulling from Letterman when he called Palin a "slut" and called for the rape of her underage daughter.

    The real hypocrisy is the difference in the actions here compared to when Ed Schultz called Laura Ingrham a slut.

    The double standard is the hypocrisy.

    This is absolutely RIDICULOUS! This is most definetely deflection by the left who absolutely refuse to talk about IMPORTANT things like jobs, and the ecomony...as well as this administration's CRIMINAL behavior. Let's talk about obama's green energy policy shall we? Let's talk about how he has WASTED billions of tax payer dollars on 'green" companies that have gone bankrupt....let's talk about American tax dollars being spent to build mosques in the ME....let's talk about WASTE WASTE WASTE!

    Rush calling someone a slut....yeah that's important! LOOK AROUND YOU, IDIOTS!

    Many of you know that I am as rabid and partisan as a conservative can be on this forum, but I have to say, Rush is a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing idiot for saying what he said, and he may have really stepped in it this time. That said, there is total hypocrisy from the liberals on this one, but for now, it is your time to gloat over the hit that Rush will be taking, and who knows where that will end up.

    You will never silence him, or anyone else who exposes the bull(*)(*)(*)(*) that you lefties spew, that is of course your hypocritical ilk get elected and take over this country, then free speech will be history.

    But hang in there you hate filled lefties, I see there is a new Bristol hate thread started by you, and you will eventually step in your own feces, it's just a matter of time, and then we will gloat.

    So you agree with my pointing out his hypocricy. On the one hand he thinks it's OK for the suger daddy web site, on the other, a woman wanting her HC insurance to cover womens health issues makes he a "slut and prostitute".

    By his rationale, the women advertising on one of his advertisers web sites are sluts and prostitutes. But he doesn't say anything here, because they pay his wages.
