It's always pulling out the "magical balance fairy," "but people on your side do it, too" whining. It's either wrong all the time or it's not. For example, I don't watch Bill Mahr because I don't like him and think he's a jerk. I also don't get cable (is he on HBO?) so my money isn't going to support his show. He has no sponsors for me to write letters to. Rush spent three DAYS telling complete lies about Sandra Fluke. He should expect the push back he got. So, Mahr and Rush are both jerks. One has a small audience of people who have to pay to actually listen to him and the other has millions of listeners right in the middle of the day. One called a public figure a couple of nasty words and one spend three days saying nasty name-calling and completely lying about what a young women testified about. Magical Balance Fairy just isn't working.

Folks, This board is a place to debate topics, not each other personally. Please feel free to debate the content of the video, but not whether a member is reacting in a way that you find appropriate or inappropriate.

Agreed. It seems they don't see us criticise Ed Schultz (I called for his suspension, and Ed delivered a heartfelt apology.) I've called out plenty of others on the left for their misogyny...

Yet this comment by Rush was about a college student, and it was a horrific, repeated, and defended remark. Saying it happens on the left is a cop out.

Well, you can rationalize all you want, but the truth is that because Maher attacked Palin, that's okay, as evidenced in your post and the reaction from left wing pundits.
