The blacklisting has begun:

Okay this mentality has passed over into frightening:

Ms. Fluke looks to me like a lady who can take care of herself. Yet she has Anita Dunn handling her PR, and now this. What is going on here?

Rush Limbaugh boycott? Are you freaking kidding me? The commentators on the left are much more vile and viscious on a regular and routine basis than Rush ever has been.

The left wants to be the world's conscience. They are Orwellian thought police. Nothing less.

"Strong (not necessarily tough) women are the B word--of course"

Oh definitely. And I know, that every time I make a mechanic fix something that he doesn't want to, or deice my wings (though I generally say it in a pleasant manner), I know he's back there muttering to the guys about what a B I am. And you know what? I'm resisting telling him that he can kiss my butt, just go do his job! It takes alot of restraint sometimes, but I know to keep it to myself.

Yep. I don't mind if you call me a bitch, but if you call me an S or a C, I won't be very happy.

well sure, those can be offensive, though many tough women couldn't care at all about being call the B word.

In my vocabulary, the C word is pretty much the worst.

Two words you (males) never, ever call a woman: The B word. The S word. evileye

I enjoy listening to Rush now and then, though often I get irritated when I know he's so obviously stretching the truth to fit his conclusions. Though of course they all do that, but when it's so transparent even I can figure it out, it gets boring. He is highly entertaining and loves pushing the liberals buttons and making them crazy. I didn't listen to any of this kerfluffle about Fluke, but I suspect he is more regretting giving her publicity as opposed to losing advertisers. It's the most popular talk show in the country, they will have plenty of advertisers to fill in. But when you attack someone in an over the top fashion, some people are opportunists and use that as a platform to promote themselves. And the president using this as an opportunity really makes you speak out. Don't hear him talking about the insults to many Republican women now, do you? Interesting though how when a conservative says something over the top, what a hue and cry there is, and a liberal? It's all just fine, no big deal. I don't know, is it that they think it's not offensive to say anything whatsoever about a conservative woman, because it's probably true and they deserve it? Or is it that when my side says something, it's all just trivial talk and meaningless talk, but when the other side says something, OH MY GOD, HOW AWFUL!!

If more people actually listened to him, they would not be so afraid of him.

He was not for McCain, he is not for Romney...yet liberals insist he is the leader of the party. Funny that.

I will admit to listening to him as background at home, or in the car, and the guy is mostly just entertaining.

This whole contraception kerfluffle will end up biting liberals. They already look like screaming-meemies.

The free-speech suppressors make me so angry, I will START listening to him.

Discuss.

I agree, busdriver.

The two are miles apart in offensiveness. T*** is bad too.

Frankly, I think slut is mild compared to these. As evidenced by the fact that one can actually say it or type it.

Strong (not necessarily tough) women are the B word--of course!! ;)
