Re: Rush Limbaugh....WAY too much....

He didn't call her a skank. He said:

- if the Government pays for birth control that means it is paying the woman to have sex
- if the Government is paying her to have sex then she should be compelled to post the videos on-line so that everyone can see what they are paying for

He called the woman a slut and a prostitute because she testified in favour of the government supporting birth control.... that is not the definition of a slut or a prostitute.

Now I don't believe in random baggy dropping, abortion or the morning after pill (abortion) and I don't think the Government should finance abortions (they do in Canada BTW) ....but to call someone a slut and a prostitute for expressing an option is WAY over the top. I don't object to the words slut, skank, prostitute or hooker ....but they must be appropriately used.

Re: Rush Limbaugh....WAY too much....

whats the difference between a slut and a skank?
do they hang out in the same places?
are they easily identified?

You'd have to ask a man that. I am not qualified to make such fine distinctions.

Perhaps these definitions from the Urban Dictionary will help:
