Limbaugh blasts ‘overeducated’ young single white women

[UCmeNdc]

Rush Limbaugh goes back on the attack today.........

Following “sincerely” apologizing for calling a Georgetown University student a “slut,” conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh on Tuesday complained about “overeducated” single white women.

“What is it with all these young, single, white women? Overeducated doesn’t mean intelligent,” he ranted, going on to talk about journalist Tracie McMillian’s book.

On Monday, attorney Max Kennerly with The Beasley Firm told the Philidelphia Daily News that Fluke could “definitely” sue the radio host because he had made “false statements of fact.”

1. "The ability to speak does not make one intelligent"

Qui-Gon spoke the truth when he spoke those words. There is no better example then Rush.

[freshwest]

11. Perfect example of the numbers of fingers pointing back at one... Always, he is.

[Yavin4]

2. Keep Talking Rush. Please Keep Talking.

The big swing vote in America is Single Females. Dems lose when they don't vote. Each utterance from that Gasbag is like another 10 to 50,000 votes.

[madinmaryland]

12. Exactly! The more OxyRush talks, the more the Democrats can link him to the repubs.

[Warpy]

3. Ah, red meat to bitter white men

who think women are chipping away at their pedestals. And we are.

The only question is what sort of advertisers that will attract. Women are major purchasers of just about everything but limp dick pills and I sincerely doubt the producers of Viagra and Cialis will be enough to keep his show going. He'll have to start advertising soft porn and that will kill him in the bible belt.

4. More love from Republicans to the women out there.

I guess 'overeducated' to a Republican is any woman who stops having babies and leaves the kitchen.

[stevenleser]

5. This probably means Rush believes the Govt should pay for Doctorates for Married women of color!

[Ikonoklast]

6. Says the college dropout.

[tanyev]

7. Bad things happen when the wimmenfolk get too much edumacation.

[TNLib]

8. Keep digging Rush

[Whisp]

9. I wish Fluke would sue his red ass off

and give the money to Planned Parenthood.

10. To Limbaugh, a woman who went to university is 'overeducated'

My first job, at 14, was making caramel apples at an apple orchard. At 16, I got a job at Big Boy, stocking the salad bar before moving on to waitress. At 17, I got a generous but partial scholarship to NYU, moved to New York City, and cobbled together the rest of my tuition and living expenses as a tutor, nanny, waitress, personal assistant and intern; at one point I simultaneously juggled five part-time jobs. I stayed here because I landed in a rent-stabilized apartment that kept the city affordable.

I kept tutoring and freelancing until I wrangled myself a job at City Limits as managing editor. I was a copy editor, photo editor, office manager and deadline nag, and in my free time I started writing stories about the things that interested me: welfare, child care, anything, really, about how working families eked out a living. I'm proud, and a little shocked, that I've now won several national awards, including the Harry Chapin Media Award and the James Aronson Award for Social Justice Journalism, and have been recognized by the James Beard Foundation, for my work on these topics. Even though I'm not on staff at a big, fancy magazine or newspaper, the awards put my work in the same league as the publications I beat to win them: the New York Times, Fortune, Businessweek and Time.

She has a bachelor's degree. That she's got several awards for her writing means nothing to the slug.

13. And he hasn't even started on overeducated non-white women! n/t

[yellowcanine]

15. You forgot "uppity"

[DFW]

17. mea culpa

That's why we post here, so people can pick up the slack when we stumble..........

14. Wow, I'm really dangerous and overedumacated!!

I earned an A.A.S., a B.A. and a J.D. (law degree). Twelve years of college. Worked full time at the courthouse and went to law school at night part-time.

I earned the J.D. in 1985. So I'm not young but I'm overeducated.

My grandparents, who were born in 1894 and 1898 respectively, BOTH earned Master's Degrees from Mississippi A&M during World War I. It still amazes me that my grandmother, born in Mississippi in 1898, earned a Master's Degree and was a County Extension Agent for her whole career, working for Mississippi A&M and Texas A&M.

My great-aunt got a full scholarship to Yale Nursing School in 1940 for a Master's degree in Nursing. She also earned a Master's Degree in Public Health. She was born in 1917. She was the only person in my family who went to an Ivy League school. She used to help me with my chemistry homework in high school. She had a B.S. in Chemistry.

Wonder if Rush knows there were college-educated women running loose long before he was born?

16. As a college flunkout anyone with even an associate degree is overeducated to Rush.

Limbaugh graduated from Cape Girardeau, Missouri Central High School, in 1969. Because of his parents' desire to see him attend college, he enrolled in Southeast Missouri State University but left the school after two semesters and one summer. According to his mother, "he flunked everything", and "he just didn't seem interested in anything except radio."

Pretty rich for a guy who flunked out of college after 2 semesters and a summer session (probably a failed attempt to pass something) to be talking about someone with a bachelor's degree as being "overeducated"
