Last ink I give this fool...

This is the last I'm going to speak about this guy Rush Limbaugh, because, as we all know, any publicity is better than none, right?
NOW, and I can't imagine that he didn't think of this lame excuse before, Limbaugh is blaming rap music, Don Imus and everyone he can find that has used inappropriate language for HIS. Is he THAT easily manipulated that what others say influences anything that HE says? If THAT is the case, he doesn't need to be on TV, radio, or any other social media, does he? As his sponsors are clearly saying,NO, it doesn't, bless them all.

Here's the thing, Rush. Even though I think some of the things said in rap music are sickening and reprehensible, and just more fodder for disrespecting women in general, they don't have the same sponsors you do. I really wish they DID. I can't wait until the need to degrade women in what I would loosely called 'singing" is over. Aren't they bored with it yet? Haven't they pretty much called women everything possible already. They are all just a bunch of pathetic parrots now, BUT I have to say that if the women that allow themselves to appear in these disgusting videos would have a bit of self-respect, the "songs" would have to stop dead, wouldn't they? Think about it, ladies. Being willing to do what you do in those videos pretty much bolsters what these men are saying about you, doesn't it? If it walks, quacks and dances like a slut....well, what are we to think? I know it probably pays really well for a minimum of actual work, but then, so does prostitution, right? I'm not saying that you are anything but ladies trying to survive here, but you ARE helping the cause of totally disrespecting women, okay? This in no way negates the very personal attack that Mr. Limbaugh launched against Ms. Fluke. He apologized, but ONLY long enough to then try to justify what he said, huh? If you try to justify your deeds, then you aren't really sorry for them, are you? At least the rappers have dancers that pretty much back up what they are rapping about, no justification needed. No real men, or women, listen to that trash anyway. Unfortunately, young people do, and that is so sad. I can only hope that their parents set them straight about the different sorts of women REALLY out there, NOT just the ones in those videos.
But what are we to do with the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Don Imus? Exactly what is being done, their sponsors should stand up and leave, just like decent people should leave a concert that degrades women, or anyone really, and ask for a ticket refund (but better to research the "artist" beforehand...you DO get what you pay for, and if you sign up to be shocked, don't be surprised when you ARE, okay?)
Limbaugh crossed a line, and it was VERY personal. Everyone that does this should be sanctioned, just like he is being, by NOT having sponsors. He has the right to say anything he wants to, BUT WE have the right to limit his audience to people that actually pay money to go see him, or buy a CD he records, NOT on TV or radio when we don't stand a chance against such a surprise attack. Anyone that's listened to either should be ready for anything, but new listeners could be very offended, so change their venues to ONLY people willing to PAY to hear such filth and defilement, and then they won't need so many sponsors...but then, I suspect they KNOW not enough folks would show up to listen to their drivel. Say what you will, Rush, but YOU should have a warning label JUST like the rappers do. As for Imus, same thing applies.
Just sayin'

IF you care about what he's trying to do now, by back-pedaling and making excuses, it's below in full.



 Rush Limbaugh has managed to cause quite a media frenzy since his offensive comments about law student, Sandra Fluke, have caught the nation's attention. But the controversial radio host, known for his conservative views and sharp tongue has claimed a defense for his actions that might just make more people shake their heads and roll their eyes: rappers do it all the time.  After Limbaugh referred to Fluke as a "slut" and a "prostitute" (in addition to a number of other offensive comments) for advocating that insurance companies cover birth control, he issued an apology saying his words were "insulting." But in response to the continued flight of advertisers from his show--a number that now totals close to a dozen sponsors--he expressed his outrage at his unfair treatment in a culture that has tolerated such language elsewhere, like rap music.  "You talk about a double standard," Limbaugh said in a post on his website. "One of the greatest illustrations of it is that rappers can practically say anything they want about women, and it's called art."  Limbaugh went on to discuss the media and Democratic party's role in the deterioration of morality in society:      Every minority according to the left, every minority in the country is a victim of a tyrannical majority. Every aspect of the Democrat Party agenda is to reverse that, and what's happening here is that everybody is allowing these winds to blow them over. And there's no resistance to it...It's the Democrats and the media that use the power of intimidation to get people to cave on their own morality, to give it up. All for the sake of avoiding confrontation or opposition.   Limbaugh's original comment about Fluke and his rapper defense are reminiscent of a similar incident in 2007 when another radio host, Don Imus, referred to the primarily black Rutgers women's basketball team as "nappy headed ho's." Imus said that the phrase "originated in the black community," citing the degradation of women in hip hop music.  More recently in December 2011, the Dutch fashion magazine, Jackie came under fire for referring to singer Rihanna as "the ultimate n***abitch." The magazine editor (who later resigned after the backlash) issued an apology on their Facebook page. Hoeke also referred to the prevalence of the expression in the media:      It was stupid, it was naive to think that this was an acceptable form of slang--you hear it all the time on tv and radio, then your idea of what is normal apparently shifts--but it was especially misguided: there was no malice behind it.   Is Rush Limbaugh simply scraping for another scape goat, or do he, Imus and Jackie magazine have a point?
