Only majority that acts like a minority . All true , Miss Frances . Rush is correctamundo as usual . Ever play behind a foursome of women golfers ? Eleven practice swings and the ball , if hit , goes eleven feet . But Big Eddie digresses .

This is the Drugster going after the NFL because they dumped him when he tried to buy into an NFL team and the players and the commish(husband of Jane Skinner then of Fox) said no to this fat racist piece of shit.Even Limbaugh’s money partner threw him under the bus.So he vents his anger over something that kills people men and women.A truly horrible human being sure to burn in hell.

“trying so hard to be relevant and controversial and a general nuisance”

I am so embarrassed. I fell asleep half way through France Martel’s marvelous piece on this Limbaugh guy….when I woke up the above quote was the first thing I saw….and I thought Frances was referring to herself.

My bad….
Forgive me…no, seriously…forgive me….

A couple of years ago, the NY Times ran a story on cancer research funding. At the time, while prostate cancer was the most common of all cancers, IIRC it only received roughly half of the funding of breast cancer research. Limbaugh – as usual – is using bombast and outrage to highlight the outrageous. I was listening to the show when this was talked about. Until then, I had no idea September was prostate cancer awareness month, and I suspect most other didn’t as well.

Let’s face it – it’s chic to be seen “fighting breast cancer”, but prostate cancer – not so much. This was Limbaugh’s point – and it’s a good one.

Don’t confuse Frances with logic and facts Republitarian.

My school is filled with “I heart boobiez” wrist bands but I sure don’t see any “I heart butts” ones…..

Hello single ugly mother from Utah! *wave* Is that you MichelleFail?

Orly Limbuagh, the gasbag is still hurt that the Ni@@3r Football League will not allow him to own any slaves of his own. The bloviating, pontificating & wingnuttery can only go so far until you become a complete laughing stock. Rush, please try something new. You are, sadly, a little too boring nowadays. It’s like that old dusty record that keeps replaying and skipping at the same spot. Beck is running you out of your own domain!

While his statistics are correct, Limbaugh ignored one very important statistic. That is death rate. While the yearly diagnosis are about the same, the death rates are completely different. For breast cancer, it’s about 180 in 100,000. For prostate cancer, it’s about 20 in 100,000. But then, based on his world view of every (wo)man for themselves, he’s only interested in the 20 in 100,000 number.

Limbaugh is just a far reich wing troll who says outrageous crap to appease his stone age listeners.

You should have recorded the part where one of his callers spoke about the “WLBA”, the Women’s LESBIAN Basketball Association. Limbaugh just snickered.

It’s not surprising that Rush takes few female callers on his show. Sports radio talk show hosts probably take more female callers, on average!

It’s all about markets and marketing. If the the NFL is highlighting breast cancer it’s because they’re working on that female audience. That’s where the growth has been, or so I’m told. I hate football myself. (I’m a man.)

I’ve seen PSAs for prostate exams on late night TV, but the fact is that corporate sponsors don’t generally seem to go for prostate cancer as a cause. You see pink labels on canned vegetables, cartons of yogurt, and bags of chips, but no one seems to think that a donation for prostate cancer research will sell products. Rush can blame political correctness or minority politics or whatever it is that he thinks he can jam into his predetermined narrative, but his hilarious joke about rubber gloves probably gets a lot closer to the truth. People don’t like to think about prostate cancer, or prostates, and anything else that’s up a man’s ass… or at any rate, corporate sponsors don’t want to take that chance.

However, it seems to me that when I was growing up, people didn’t like to talk about breast cancer. So there ought to be room for improvement. We should all get used to talking about it. If Rush decides to wear rubber gloves for a month next September, I pledge to follow his lead.

Where do you come up with that nonsense? You have no idea what you are talking about. You just made it up.
There are female callers on his show all the time. He probably takes more that other talk shows.

Why are women called a minority? There are more women than men in our population.
This is just another left-wing attempt to make women victims.

Looks like a few of you are members of the He-Man Woman-Haters club. Hey, Rush — don’t begrudge the publicity breast cancer awareness receives; instead, do something to help promote prostate cancer awareness if it’s important to you!

There’s no doubt that many health issues faced by women were a very low priority for a long time. As a result women banded together to try to bring more awareness and better treatment for those conditions.

When I was a kid, my mom had two radical mastectomies — one at age 33 and the other at age 40. When she asked about reconstruction options after the first one, she was told just to be happy she was alive; wasn’t offered the option of chemo, radiation, counseling, reconstruction or even physical therapy (had to take a lot of lymph nodes under and along her arm). Fortunately, she went to Duke the second time around and the intervening years and more advanced setting made a world of difference!

Had women not gotten involved in promoting awareness and treatment, we would probably still be getting the same sad service my mother did the first time around. And if breast cancer strikes a woman you love, you will be grateful for all the noise and attention that has been brought to this devastating illness.

Yes, in an ideal world all tragic diseases would be given equal attention, research and funding — there would be no lack of any of it to cause some to feel slighted. But this really isn’t a tit-for-tat thing, so to speak (sorry, couldn’t think of a better phrase). Be glad advances have been made and lobby hard for more attention for other causes that you believe deserve it! It’s not one vs. the other, for heaven’s sake.

Marla, you are wasting your breath on this site. The right wingers will believe anything that Limbaugh says, no matter how big or outrageous the lie. He is and always has been anti-family and anti-women. There is nothing about Limbaugh that says “family values.” But the right wingers do not care….

Why do they call women a minority? Because for many, many years they have been oppressed. Why did it take so long for them to get the vote? Why is the glass ceiling in business, with very few exceptions, still intact?

And your nonsense about Limbaugh taking more women calls than other talk shows: He only takes about six calls for every three hour show he hosts! He is too busy bloviating, and his listeners are too busy lapping it up.

Great comment!!!!!! I doubt that Limbaugh will do anything though. All he cares about is himself.

Gordon, there are various situations in which a class of people could be a minority — population is just one of them. I think it’s valid to say that women are still a minority in lots of fields such as business and religious leadership, medicine, congress, etc.

Thank you. I just hate when people whine about something, yet they have immense power to make a difference and don’t bother to lift a finger. I’m certainly all for more awareness/screening/research for prostate cancer and every other deadly/debilitating diseases. So I hope he does take up the cause and run with it!

Limbaugh will take a call from any woman as long as she adores him.

Personally, I don’t care how many women Rush talks to so long as he pledge to stay self serving and dishonest, and to make up his own facts.

The more I watch & listen, the more I realize Bill Maher & Rush Limbaugh are very much alike:

Similarities:
…They’re both got a following that thinks they are smart.
…They’ve both got a show.
…They’ve both got lots of airtime to fill with words.
…They both have to say something unusual, controversial, outrageous, or occasionally stupid to keep their audience.
…They both think people who disagree with them are sad & pathetic.
…Neither allows any “serious” dissension. Maher supports himself with an audience of lemmings.
…They both get their self-esteem from having others talk about them. (Mediaite writers???)
Differences:
…Rush is fat, but Maher has a really ugly face. (Sorry, it’s true.)
…Rush makes a lot more money.
…Rush was conservative when it wasn’t popular. He stood alone for a long time.
…Maher jumped on the liberal bandwagon while it was high, at no risk to himself.
…Maher accuses the Republicans of being led by Rush. Nobody thinks Maher could lead anything.

All in all, they have quite a lot in common, and a few differences.

As always regarding this “person” I find myself conflicted when making comments- not wanting to insult or degrade the common domestic pig, and yet unable to grasp the stinkiness of this “persons” essential being without the image of utter piggyness invading my mind…..oh woe…..oh woe…..

Come on, wasn’t worth the laugh? (BTW, he takes plenty of (fe)male callers).

Frances wrote …”Limbaugh is just trying so hard to be relevant and controversial…he’s throwing the kitchen sink at the microphone and hoping at least one listener’s blood begins to boil. Many are just laughing.”

Frances …check with the White House… The White House is NOT LAUGHING and are very afraid of Rush because they have yet to figure out how to control his message. They have tried and failed so many times…I have lost count…and that is just what the TOTUS’s have told the President to say.

In your circles, I am sure your friends laugh…but you can’t control him either…so laughing is your own little way of controlling something you have no control over….Very “Liberalish!”

This is from the American Cancer Society site, “Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, behind only lung cancer. About 1 man in 36 will die of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer accounts for about 11% of cancer-related deaths in men.”

According to the American Cancer Society, the death rate from breast cancer is about 24 in 100,000 for women.

Oh Rush, no one cares what you have to say anymore, Beck has replaced you. Just disappear gracefully.
