Welcome to IWETHEY!

New this silliness is not the issue
Limbaugh was flat out wrong attacking Fluke
Maher was borderline unfunny with his bit
Bristol was making a point that Maher was not a big deal but Limbaugh is (point being silly or not)
Slut shaming by attack weasels from the left and the response oh, she was being silly by the left so she deserves such attacks is what I dont like and pointed out here.
Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free American and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 55 years. meep
New You think she was going meta?
I read her post. I didn't see it as insulting Maher as being less important than Rush. She was criticizing the president for defending Fluke but not her. No subtext at all.

New Re: this silliness is not the issue
#1 - Agreed.

#2 - Meh. Maher is borderline misogynistic - period. (I only rarely watch his show for more than a couple of minutes - I don't find him funny most of the time, and his panels are often a waste of time.) But "jokes" in a monologue isn't close to the same as what Limbaugh did over many hours.

#3 - Meh. Of course Maher isn't in the same league as Limbaugh when it comes to political influence. Nobody in office, of the left or the right, really cares what Maher thinks.

#4 - Meh. I posted a link to TBogg's comments on her post. TBogg isn't Maher. TBogg doesn't suffer grifters gladly - no matter their gender.

Maher's "jokes" about her, in 2008, were probably often over the line. He often is. Maybe Maher should call her.

Her blog post about Obama calling was disingenuous and just designed to attract attention - which it did nicely. Something a narcissist would do...

FWIW.

Cheers,
Scott.
New She shouldn't expect a call from Maher either. OpEd at NYT.

FWIW.
