This Fluke fluke has absolutely nothing to do with free speech per the First Amendment. The First Amendment only prevents government, not private businesses, from restricting political speech. Rush’s advertisers are free to cut off their ads whenever they want so long as their contracts with Rush permit it.
As for Fluke being a slut, point out anything in her testimony that proves she, personally, is a slut. It’s just not there. Rush simply made a mistake when he implied she was a slut.
Granted the left gets away with these sorts of comments all the time, but the fact remains that Rush made an incorrect implication that did not help the larger conservative cause. BTW, Rush also apologized, so by his own admission, he made a mistake. If you disagree, take it up with him.
I never said Rush didn’t make a mistake. In fact, I agree he did, but I think apologizing is a mistake in that it has made it worse.
But again, you miss the big picture. You are technically correct on the free speech issue, but you are missing the point of gangster government and their Soros led businesses using their influence to have a chilling effect on free speech.
And the other issue is PC and the double standard, shown here by Carbonite advertising on The Ed Show months after he called Laura Ingraham a right wing slut.
Now last time I checked, Laura was not asking me to pay for her rubbers because she was screwing so many men.
And the last issue is that by jumping on to the “yes Rush should have apologized” you are probably piling on. I don’t think even Rush wants his fans to “agree” with the apology.
