I can understand why this is. A lot of people listen to Rush. Few if any listen to a liberal.

http://godfatherpolitics.com/4060/robert-kennedy-calls-senator-prostitute-and-call-girl/

In a Twitter post, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. tweeted the following:

Speaking of Prostitutes, big oil’s top call girl Sen Inhofe wants to kill fuel economy backed by automakers, small biz, enviros, & consumers.

Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

You do know it was a metaphor right?


I am not trying to defend the statements, they are stupid. I am just making sure you understand the difference between using a bad metaphor for calling someone a sell out and literally attacking a woman as a slut and a whore because she was going to testify about her friend who lost her ovaries.

There are all sorts of current examples of well-known libs going waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the misogynistic line. Nobody in the media cares about them though. Neither do other libs.

how is calling a (male) senator a prostitute for selling out to the oil industry misogynistic? sobaki would take issue with the idea that only women can be prostitutes.

Did RFKJr say he wants to watch the sex tape?

Fist, you're flailing hard.

It sounds like RFK was spot on!

The RFK quote is pretty mild.

Bill Maher, on the other hand, said many things worse than what Rush did and there was no outcry from the media remotely similar to that unleashed on Rush.

That's because Maher is a liberal and the media is completely, totally corrupt.

Another example of ignoring the liberal while whining about the Conservative.
