Poor Rush

A linguist just explained via NPR why the word "slut" is so offensive that Mr. Limbaugh is losing advertisers.
Mr. Limbaugh, a famous radio host, described a young woman who testified before a gov't group about contraception and health care (she's for contraception as a part of a health care plan) as a "slut" "prostitute"
and a person who will do sex acts on camera for the viewing pleasure of others. He slobbered over the last phrase leading me to believe he watches too much porn.

The entire thing is simple. Mr. Limbaugh is a whore, a slut and a prostitute for money, fame and power.
His virulent, hate filled programs are verbal pornography. He incites people to violence. He defames anyone of stature who criticizes him. He's got the Republicans so whipped that none of them protest his verbal abuse as long as they don't suffer it.

Mr. Limbaugh is an admitted "infotainer." He offers information to entertain so he does not have to adhere to any standard of decency. That his information is ofter false means nothing. That he incites violence is nothing.

He's a clever man. He uses language well. He actually does have a valid point of view...once and while. That's all my opinion. As a former listener I do know this. He has prostituted his intelligence in the sevice of lies. He has defamed people for the sheer pleasure it gives him. He is a slut for attention, money and power. The man is a street walker on the public square.
