Rush most certainly did the right thing here. Regardless of whether his original statement holds validity, the word choice is egregiously insulting. When I first read it, I knew immediately this was going to be the end result because you can not use a word that derogatory no matter what the intent, and not offend people.

I think Rush was RIGHT in his original statement and he's right apologizing for his word choice.

I knew as soon as I heard Rush call her a slut this was going to happen. Women resent the word slut because there is no term for men engaging in the same behavior.

OK, what is the more polite term for slut? Educate us please so that when we observe a woman who has sex with people she is not married (to the tune of needing $3,000 a year in contraceptions), and DEMAND that we pay for it, we can use the “right” term.
