Feminist attorney-activist Gloria Allred is asking authorities in Florida to figure out whether Rush Limbaugh violated laws when he ridiculed Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke.
In a letter to County Attorney Denise Nieman in West Palm Beach, Florida, dated March 8, Allred says Limbaugh may have violated a misdemeanor statute against defamation.
"Mr. Limbaugh has publicly acknowledged that his reference to Ms. Fluke as a 'slut' and a 'prostitute' were baseless and false," Allred wrote.
Allred said Nieman's office should "open an investigation into whether or not Mr. Rush Limbaugh is in violation of Section 836.04 of Florida Statutes.
The statute, according to Allred, reads: "Whoever speaks of and concerning any woman, married or unmarried, falsely and maliciously imputing to her a want of chastity, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of the first degree."

The dictionary says the word “slut” means sexually promiscuous.
One of the elements of the crime is that the statement be false, and the requirement for malice would require that the defendent knew it to be false. This won’t go anywhere. But if it did, discovery could be entertaining.
I love smell of napalm in the morning ,mixed with smell of their charred carcases bulldozed into the ocean.
But let them start it.
Well, I for one think we ought to investigate Gloria AllRED to determine how she got her law ticket.
“falsely and maliciously imputing to her a want of chastity”
Nothing false about it. fluke admitted openly she has seemingly near constant sex.
truth is the ultimate defense for liable, bring it on liberal pigs.
He was talking about a public figure on TV. No go.

Too easy.
In the one clip I’ve seen Rush asks “What do you call a woman that wants to be paid for sex? A slut...right?”
He never says Sandra Fluke is a slut.
Where did Gloria get her law degree?
And where does Miss Allred stand with regard to Maher/Schultz/Louis C.K just to mention a few?
Gloria Airhead gives media whores a bad name.

Don’t these freaks ever go away?????
Hey thanks....that was my question too. I thought she filed lawsuits?? No follow-ups in the news?
Not a word that I saw. Isn’t that interesting.
Gloria Allred could find a better use for her money ... like getting Fluke a years supply of aspirin.
Oh she makes me sick Jesse Jackson in a dress
Conservatives must be doing something right because the left has become increasingly unhinged over the last few weeks. They must be getting nervous about November 2012. Allred is pathetic.
Discovery might prove interesting.
Okay... So we’re back to duscussing whores again?
Sad....
