SAN DIEGO – March 6, 2012 – The country’s fixation with the Rush Limbaugh controversy continues unabated, nearly a week after the conservative radio talk show host ripped into Georgetown University law school student Sandra Fluke following her comments favoring government funding for contraceptives care during a congressional hearing called by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
With nothing else to talk about, how else are people going to fill up their Facebook pages and Twitter streams? Apparently the Kardashians aren’t doing anything interesting. The awards season is over. "American Idol" is pretty boring this year, and we still have a week before March Madness. And really, the only people who care about Super Tuesday are… uh, I’ll get back to you on that one.
Advertiser boycotts only blow smoke. Listeners are the ones who must act if they want Limbaugh off the air.
Besides, isn’t it much easier and more fun to talk about who’s a slut and who’s not, whether Bill Maher and Ed Schultz are ruder than Rush, what the women on “The View” and Stephen Colbert think, and whether Rush should be fired for what he said?
There is only one reason anyone who supports the right to freedom of speech in America should want
