BREAKING: Freepers lose control over their bodily functions in wake of Rush Limbaugh's "apology."

I guess his $pon$ors were dropping him like flies so he panicked.

The truth never needs an apology.

I’m sorry Ms. Fluke...that you’re a slut.

Disappointing.

She’s a slut, and Limbaugh is stooping to her level in making this statement.

If that is Rush’s position on this, that’s cool. I will continue to refer to her as a slut though. I find it hilarious and fitting.

Rush doesn’t have to keep the ‘dumb slut’ demographic...

But advertisers strongly prefer he did.

Looks like Rush really has jumped the shark after all.

1. LOL

Many of them already threw him and Coulter and Beck under the bus. What's left for them?

[StarlightGold]

9. They're even disgusted at

Ted Nugent. He just endorsed Romney, and they were ready to swallow everything in the medicine cabinet.
Am I a bad person for being gleeful at their anguish?

[pipi_k]

13. If you're a bad person

then so am I because I'm laughing like hell

[BumRushDaShow]

21. Bwaaahaa!

[pamela]

14. Well, they've still got Breitbart.

Oops. Nevermind.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

22. DUzy!

[white_wolf]

28. How could Limbaugh fit under a bus? n/t

[Initech]

2. I have to say the meltdown has been fun to watch.

[JoePhilly]

3. I love it when they gnash their teeth and rend their garments ...

And this weekend, they will dine on rotten apples, sauteed in sour grapes, garnished with bitter herbs.

Dessert will be a cake made entirely of TUMS, covered with a pink icing made from Pepto-Bismol.

[jsmirman]

8. Yummmmm

dig in

[nolabear]

4. Those who buy that "entertainer" crap should read these.

There is no humor here. These people hate women and relish doing us harm. Their leader can't be allowed to continue.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

5. He's already planted the seed

The freepers considered her a "slut" because Limbaugh told them to consider her a "slut."

Not they consider her a "slut" because Limbaugh apologized, and if there's one thing a Republican NEVER does is "apologize."

The sponsor thing gained quick traction, though, and a few freepers were quick enough on the uptake to see that "El Rushbo" got SPOOKED.

But all of the blame gets pointed back to Ms. Fluke in their minds, and the "apology" only serves as justification that Limbaugh was right in the first place. Don't ask me how that logic works, I couldn't tell you...but that seems to be exactly what's happening.

[nolabear]

18. It works just like the mind of an abuser works.

"I wouldn't have to do this if you didn't make me so mad. You deserve this for upsetting me. You know I can't stand you upsetting me."

If this has done any good whatsoever it's been helpful in bringing the abuser mentality into the light.

[BiggJawn]

23. Most Authoritarian Followers are abuse victims

But they don't see themselves as victims, they think everybody got beat-to-shit when they were a kid and it's a "normal" upbringing. "I got the shit beat out a me, so you should get the shit beat out a you, too."
So the cycle continues...

[wandy]

26. Herd animals. They can only speak those words put in their mouths. n/t

[Arkansas Granny]

6. Probably not one of them read or listened to her actual testimony. They have relied on Rush

to tell them the "truth" of what she said. Freepers find it much easier to let someone tell them what their opinions should be and how they should react to a situation than to actually think for themselves.

[BiggJawn]

24. Bingo!

I don't recall her talking about how much sex she has. What I recall is her talking about a classmate who relied on BCP's to keep her ovaries from turning on her, and who had an ovary blow up when she couldn't afford pills out of pocket.

[southernyankeebelle]

7. I guess these guys don't realize that he is calling his wife, girlfriend, sister, or daughter

or even their mothers sluts because I am sure they are all using birth control pills. Shame on them. Do they think their mothers, wives, sisters or daughters would truly be proud of them. I think not. I sure wouldn't. Even the republican family members in my family were upset because some of them use birth control not only to prevent births but also for medical reasons.

[BiggJawn]

25. Not their women!

"Nosiree, mah wimmen don't use them things! Mah daughter's a vergeen, and mah wife jest knows what time o' the year she can lemme have some widdout puttin' a bun in th' cookstove. Why, Jeebus would cry iffn mah wimmen used them dam things!"

[southernyankeebelle]

27. Ha, your funny. But it probably would be the way they would say it.

[BiggJawn]

29. Yeah, that's a Hoosier dialect.

Listening to the World Service of Auntie Beeb in my formative years spared me.
I remember people calling ghosts "haints" when I was little.

[southernyankeebelle]

32. Ha, pretty good.

[Faygo Kid]

10. Now even Rush isn't far enough to the right for them

They are throwing him under the bus over there. It's sublime.

The Repuke candidates ought to give up. They can't go far enough over the edge for the base. They just can't. Even Rush Limbaugh is now too liberal for them.

This is going to be a good year.

I'm getting the t-shirt. Any better suggestions have at it.

[tapermaker]

20. s.l.u.t

strong ladies unfairly targeted

[underpants]

15. mrssmith offers another reality

Rush doesn’t have to keep the ‘dumb slut’ demographic...

But advertisers strongly prefer he did.

[Noodleboy13]

16. You ever notice how much they seem to like to say "Slut"

Reminds me of naughty school boys saying "poopy butt" on the playground.
Except that these are 'adults.'

peace,
Noodleboy

[malaise]

17. Fuck you Freepers

[Darth_Kitten]

19. Mygirlsmom seems particularly annoying and stupid.

I wonder how she feels supporting Rush when he calls her OWN children sluts?

I think conservative Republican women hate themselves even more than their husbands do!

[white_wolf]

30. I've never understood how one could be a convervatie in this country and not be...

a white, wealthy, straight, male Christian. It seems like they hate everyone who doesn't fit that exact criteria.

[deacon]

31. ...and the apology leaves Bill O as holding the bag as #1 asshole. Funny stuff. n/t
