Planet Wingnut News for Thursday



Rush Limbaugh: ‘I love the women’s movement — especially when walking behind it.’
Last week, hate radio host Rush Limbaugh judged the Miss America pageant. Wednesday he went on Fox and Friends and spoke to host — and former Miss America winner — Gretchen Carlson to respond to the criticism he has been receiving. He insisted that he isn’t anti-women. But in the few sentences he used to make his case, he still managed to make a sexist joke:
CARLSON: So for those who were critics of you in judging this pageant, and saying that you haven’t been a supporter of women in the past —
LIMBAUGH: Oh, I’m a huge supporter of women. What I’m not a supporter of is liberalism. Feminism is what I oppose, and feminism has led women astray. I love women. I don’t know where all this got started. I love the women’s movement — especially when walking behind it. This idea that I don’t like women is absurd. This is Miss America. And if there’s a Mr. America out there, it’s me.

Do me a favor Rush, don't walk behind me, beside me and I sure don't want to walk behind you.
