Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Calls Senator Inhofe a 'Prostitute' and a 'Call Girl' - Will Media Be Outraged?
In the midst of all the media outrage over Rush Limbaugh calling Georgetown University law student and women's rights activist Sandra Fluke a slut, one would think political figures would shy away from using such words against their opponents, at least in public.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. clearly doesn't think so for moments ago he sent a note via Twitter calling Sen. James Inhofe (R-Ok.) a "prostitute" and a "call girl":
Readers are advised that besides being the senior attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council, Kennedy is also the co-host of the nationally syndicated weekly talk radio show Ring of Fire.
Think the folks organizing sponsor boycotts and calling for Limbaugh to be taken off the air will do the same for Kennedy?
Or how about the Huffington Post where Kennedy publishes articles from time to time? Will there be any pushback there?
Don't count on it, for vulgarian Bill Maher is still prominently featured on the Post's front page. There's even a New Rule video of his there right now.
These liberals sure are offended by terms like "slut" and "prostitute" - only when said by a conservative about a liberal, of course.
Other than that, free speech reigns.

Busted again! But I do love my job, working 4 12-hour days on, followed by 4 days off. And I've been there so long I get 24 days vacation.
You just can't hardly beat having a full-time job while having more than half your life off anyway.
Therefore, I golf. And as I am golfing, I imagine the President fiending over my 401k as though it were the last rock of crack.

I had a friend who dated Peter Lawford's son, back in the day. She actually went to the Kennedy place in Palm Beach when Rose was alive. She said it was filthy, and Rose the Matriarch was an anti-Semite of the worst sort (my friend was Jewish).

My God, did I hear this right a Kennedy calling some one else a Prostitute. There is no family more familiar with Personal Prostitution than the Kennedy`s, not only have the Kennedy's prostituted themselves more than any other group of politicians in the US history they are connected to Big Oil, Banking, Pharmaceuticals, Hollywood, Retailing, Insurance and of course the Liquor Industry. I think that Robert Jr. is continuing the family tradition by trying to accuse someone else to the exact same thing. Ted the bedroom boy would be proud of Jr.

Mr. Kennedy has always appeared to me to be mentally challenged, inebriated, or both. I don't know the gentleman personally, so I won't judge whether or not he should have been committed to an institution long ago. However, his appearance and demeanor would suggest to any normal person that he has "issues".
Have a pleasant day.

Even though the Left is currently in uproar about Rush, they still say things they cry about when conservatives say them because they're well aware of the double standard and of their control of media. One day enough will be enough.
Amazing how it works. Like a kid on a playground throwing dirt while demanding that the teacher scold that other kid who is..........throwing dirt. And they think that's a perfectly rational and logical demand...........while they throw dirt.

The Great Slut Controversy
Submitted by berlet98 on Wed, 03/07/2012 - 1:29am.
The Great Slut Controversy
In “Fluke, Flake, Fraud–or All Three?” I laid out the case that 30 year old Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke was, by definition, both a slut and a prostitute as Rush Limbaugh alleged last week.
Limbaugh’s scathing terminology was unfortunate and he later apologized but Ms. Fluke, revelling in the limelight she purposefully created, rejected his mea culpa.
Ms. Fluke’s admission that birth control is costing her an exorbitant thousand dollars annually testifies to her sluttish promiscuity. Her demands that others pay for her to have sex without consequences satisfy the definition of a prostitute, although that description is more tenuous.
In contemporary parlance and in view of today’s loose sexual mores, Ms. Fluke may not technically be a slut and Limbaugh was clearly wrong in applying the word to her since the slut word would then be applicable to at least half the population of college and university students, and we can’t have that!
Rush’s gross indiscretion doesn’t seem to have bothered Sandra very much.
She has expressed righteous indignation in various venues and wasn’t harmed in a legal sense by the epithet. House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer wants her to sue Limbaugh: “I’d like to see her take him to court. She is not a public figure and, for that reason, she should be able to sue for slander, libel or whatever else might be involved.”
There are two problems with that line of thinking. First, the 30 year old law student defamed herself by going public about her personal life and her obviously voracious sexual drive and, second, she is indeed an activist “public figure” who has served as a former president of Law Students for Reproductive Justice and vice president of the Women’s Legal Alliance.
In any lawsuit, Ms. Fluke would have to prove both that she is not slutty and that she sustained damages as a result of Limbaugh’s invective. If anything, she has gained worshipful notoriety over the last week and the trial would devolve into a media circus.
In any event, Ms. Fluke has already won the battle of the Great Slut Controversy. . . (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=15983.)
