But that's all that matters. Limbaugh would be off the air, but only at the hands of the right-wing FEC in the event he said something like that. Although, are the words "c*nt" and "sl*t" really that different?
Rush Limbaugh isn't under any more actual pressure at this point than Bill Maher; the left is calling for Limbaugh to leave and the right is calling for Maher to leave.
Rush Limbaugh knows that he cannot say that. Rush Limbaugh can say what he said about Sandra Fluke and did, and it was no more moral than what Maher said. Rush Limbaugh has no trouble or fear from saying things that are immoral; he simply can't say things that are illegal within the confines of his trade .
It's like saying there's a double standard when you cuss at work and get in trouble because your wife lets you cuss at home.
The double standard is in the liberal media. They're not saying anything about regulations and they give you the impression that Rush Limbaugh is a right wing biggot. Meanwhile Maher gets a pass. What Maher said was much more offensive in my take. I'm sure people will see me as bias for thinking so because I'm a conservative. Obama should still give the money back and disassociate himself with Bill Maher but I don't think Obama is experienced enough to do that in order to prevent ads like the one I posted.
Get the f**k over the liberal media. That attack was created in the 1990's as a way for Republicans to have a scapegoat whenever anyone called them out on their bs. The media is neither liberal of conservative. It's run by massive media conglomerations that are only concerned with making money. MSNBC and Fox may have different commentary styles, but to think that MSNBC's parents, GE and Comcast, and FOX's Australian father Ruper Murdoch, don't have the exact same objective, is ludicrous. If conservatives are so persecuted in the media, then why does Fox News have consistently higher ratings that MSNBC and CNN?
