Bob, I hear what you’re saying. If he were speaking to only you and me, I doubt that this would generate much in the way of controversy. Unfortunately, when this hits the Sunday shows and gets mentioned in numerous Demo fundraising events it ceases to be satire. Labeling somebody a ‘slut’ or a ‘whore’ is not satire, it is polemic(i.e. Ann Coulter). I’m sure that you can find a fair number of women who are ready willing and able to vote for conservative Republicans who are very uncomfortable about calling someone who is not in the public eye these names. Even Rush can’t afford to write off his best sponsors.

BTW many people who are not idiots, but rather just inattentive, will never get it because they will never hear the whole thing. Some of these are folks who are not his listening audience today but are folks who may listen a week, month or years from now.

And, oh yeah, love Al Stewart. Favorite is Road to Moscow.
