A public discourse on S-L-U-Ts and matters of insurance

Lim­baugh was inart­ful in call­ing San­dra Fluke a S-L-U-T.  What­ever his other other short­com­ings might be, I can­not com­ment on as I do not reg­u­larly lis­ten to him.  That said, it is clear that through and because of him, that Republicans–as por­trayed by the media–are the tar­get of venom from Democ­rats and the media.

Media reports go so far as to try and tar the Repub­li­can can­di­dates with Limbaugh’s com­ments.  I dis­agree about Rom­ney, in par­tic­u­lar, as I think he set a good neu­tral exam­ple in say­ing “not the lan­guage I would have used.”  This is not his fight and not one he or other can­di­dates need to get into at this point.  Me thinks there is a vast left wing con­spir­acy at play to shift the abor­tion debate to con­tra­cep­tives (recall the early ques­tion by George S to Rom­ney, which Rom­ney dis­missed as ridicu­lous.)  Now, every­one is mak­ing a big play to make this an issue.

Limbaugh, Santorum, and Sluts

Sur­prised to see San­to­rum reverse-pander on this one by say­ing Lim­baugh was being absurd.  Lim­baugh?  Good, but irri­tat­ing enter­tain­ment when dri­ving a long dis­tance, but now with satel­lite radio, can’t say I have lis­tened to him more than a cou­ple times over the past few years.  Han­nity?  That’s like drag­ging fin­ger­nails down a chalk­board.  Both, heck, all three are shame­less and shame­ful chicken hawks, neo­cons, and hypocrites.

An ‘Adult Baby’ in California

Out­ra­geous is too light a word for Stan­ley Thorn­ton.  Regard­less of his claimed con­di­tions, he should be left to fend for him­self.  If he’s able to spend time on a com­puter, he can find work.  Maybe he was one of Obama’s paid nut­roots gang dur­ing the last elec­tion cycle writ­ing on blogs defend­ing Obama and trash­ing any crit­i­cism?  He seems like a fit­ting appli­cant for such a role.  But, no, us tax­pay­ers should not be sup­port­ing this guy.  Let his fam­ily, his local church, neigh­bors, or, heck, whoever’s gullible enough to pay his bills.  Just not the taxpayer.
