We get a lot of hate-mail here at EzKool. Sometimes we reply to the author through email, but the majority of times, we ignore the hate and keep on moving. But the absurdity of this email prompted us to post it here. It’s amazing that there are people like this out there.

Could you please remove the word “truth” from your banner? All I can see from your pages are hypocritical distortions of actual ‘truth’. For instance, in reporting the Limbaugh-Fluke controversy, you failed (an oversight, I’m sure) to note that Limbaugh was making a satirical point ridiculing Fluke’s TESTIMONY regarding students in law school needing $3,000 for contraception (despite the availability of inexpensive…as low as $9 per month…contraception within a couple of blocks of Georgetown University).
Limbaugh used her ‘testimony’ at face value to show the absurdity of her ‘argument’, saying what 99% of people would agree with…that either Fluke is a liar, an useful (but uninformed) idiot, or a slut…a word commonly used to describe a promiscuous woman.
When people wanting to make political hay objected to his satire, he made it even more obvious by saying that anyone wanting someone else to pay for her to have sex would qualify as a “prostitute’ (again, a point about which few would argue even though it was obviously a satirical statement). When that didn’t work, he went for even greater absurdity, demanding that Fluke post videos so the taxpayers could see if they were getting value for the spending of their revenue.
Even yesterday, Hilary Clinton dishonestly (and extremely hypocritically considering her approval of her friend and adviser James Carville’s savage mocking of the young women sexually harassed by her husband) continued this farce. I suppose that today’s liberals would vilify Jonathan Swift for his satirical “A Modest Proposal”…although liberals rarely read & think for themselves, evidently. I won’t be clicking on your site again and adding to your revenue since you don’t offer honest discourse. ‘Tis a shame…another wasted opportunity by those who know better.
Just goes to show you that no matter how wrong Rush Limbaugh is, wrong even to the point of him issuing an “apology,” there are those who will go out of their way to defend his sexiest, racist rants.
