"In response to the media firestorm surrounding Rush Limbaugh's insulting comments about Democratic activist Sandra Fluke (comments for which Limbaugh apologized), Kirsten Powers writes about the liberal men who have used misogynistic rhetoric without facing the same outrage. Powers notes that "the grand pooh-bah of media misogyny is without a doubt Bill Maher—who also happens to be a favorite of liberals—who has given $1 million to President Obama’s super PAC." She continues: Maher has called Palin a “dumb (*)(*)(*)(*)” and dropped the C-word in describing the former Alaska governor. He called Palin and Congresswoman Bachmann “boobs” and “two bimbos.” He said of the former vice-presidential candidate, “She is not a mean girl. She is a crazy girl with mean ideas.” He recently made a joke about Rick Santorum’s wife using a vibrator. Imagine now the same joke during the 2008 primary with Michelle Obama’s name in it, and tell me that he would still have a job. Maher said of a woman who was harassed while breast-feeding at an Applebee’s, “Don't show me your tits!” as though a woman feeding her child is trying to flash Maher. (Here’s a way to solve his problem: don’t stare at a strangers’ breasts). Then, his coup de grĂ¢ce: “And by the way, there is a place where breasts and food do go together. It’s called Hooters!” Former White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton, the man who runs Obama's super PAC, did not reply when asked if he will be returning Maher's $1 million donation." http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs...ll-mahers-million-dollar-donation_633200.html The Obamaprompter cheerleadin' "main stream media" has created their "perfect storm". They, (msm) are preachin' up the feeble economic upturn, (playin' games with numbers to decrease unemployment percentages). Hint: a much smaller base gives better percentage numbers. (Remember how the media down played job creation under George W Bush's tenure, n' repeated John "puke" Kerry's remarks about "this is the worst recovery since the great depression")? Hint: ya need some brain function ta remember. They, (msm) are hypin' the Gubment Motors turn, (n' Obamaprompter crony corp: GE bought nearly 1/2 the entire production of Volts). They, (the so called msm), are reporting polls that show large gains in Obamaprompter's approval with significant over sample of Liberals n' dim wit Democrats, (even though Cornservatives outnumber Liberals by over 2 to 1). Dim wit Democrat operative ABC anchor: George "Condom" Stephanopoulos created the contraceptive issue outta thin air, and the dim wit Democrats and the lame stream media, (ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, PBS), have hyped Sandra Fluke's need fer free contraceptives, (do ya know what the tuition at Georgetown is?), into a real media event, ta stir up the young girls who faint when they hear Obamaprompter's voice with all that reverb, n' such. The double standard is stunning, unless yer sooooooo full of Commie kool aid ya can't think at all. Hopefully ^^^^^ is enough "commentary" ta qualify as a new thread that can stay fer a weeeee bit.... burp.... pffffffft....
It's about money...clear and simple...All politicians, and in particular, Mr. Obama hold cash above principle. However, when it comes to principles, Mr. Obama couldn't seem to find his when Maher defamed Palin...nary a word from the White house. But then, there never is when these things occur..almost on a daily basis. But then, It isn't about Mr. Obama. In 5 or 6 years he'll just go quietly into the same obscurity that enveloped Mr. Carter, Yet we'll still have the Schultz's and Maher's and Lettermen's with their never ending vile rhetoric to endure. We'll still have the liberal left MSM turning a blind eye and deaf ear to the foulness emanating from the vicious liberal celebrity corps.
The lefts double standard is obvious and consistent. They are experts at selective "outrage". Amazing how many liberals openly admit they are weak, helpless and unable to deal with life's reality by declaring "victimhood" and sell their independence and freedom, to government for crumbs.
Republicans didn't reject the Koch brother, even when they violated voting law and sent out FAKE absentee balots to voters during the Wisconson election.....So why should the democrats be expected to do anything.....

So Bill Maher is the latest right wing attack point? You guys are like lemmings barking out whatever the bosses tell you to bark out huh? Lemmings. Keep going with it though. It helps to dig your party in deeper and deeper (if that's even possible). Pathetic.
Question is....why is the president so concerned about his daughters, and the treatment of woman....except when it comes to that POS trash mouth bill maher? Guess calling a woman a c**t is way more acceptable to call a woman than a slut in Obama's radical progressive head. It's a great topic actually, it just proves once again that the left are hypocrites and time after time show that they are incapable of even seeing the hypocrisy in their actions. Do you have anything to say about this fake Sandra fluke has now been tied to the white house? This entire thing was a freaking set-up and is quickly becoming a mess for the left....
Yes...I do have something to say.... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.... Oh...and one other thing....Rush Limpbaugh, (spokesperson for the right wing whackos) is a Big Fat Idiot.
Obama was concerned that his daughters should be able to speak in public on a subject of interest to them without being called sluts, whores, sex addicts and asked to send a dirty old man sex tapes for him to watch. But just keep believing PP Rush that this was a set-up to get him in trouble and it's becoming a mess for the left. And that he was RIGHT to stand up to that slut and prostitute who was trying to force Georgetown to provide her free contraceptives for her excessively active sex life and that he and you were going to have to pay for those contraceptives and he was just protecting Georgetown's religious freedoms. You believe everything else he says - why not that? That's no more bizaare than anything else he's ever told you with a perfectly straight face.
So how come Obama was not concerned that a woman should be able to run for office without being called, a whore, a c**t, bad mother, stupid, dumb, an idiot...etc...??? How come? You keep digging the hypocrisy hole even deeper....KEEP IT UP. And btw...you haven't heard yet that Sandra is a big fat fraud for the WH?
If someone donated a million bucks to me, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't chide them or any reason other than some act of violence towards me or my family. "Don't bite the hand that feeds you". You fools are gonna think that because of my opinion on that, that I support Obama, which is idiotic and I certainly don't support his crony capitalism.
