Zombie Breitbart Now, Somehow, Perturbed By The Word “Slut”

Let us all pause for a moment and listen closely, so as not to miss the quiet but familiar noise of another political argument going over Dana Loesch’s head.

Loesch, Breitbart.com’s leader in the War On The War On Women, has (surprise!) a bone to pick with you, Feminidiots. She heard some of you at the DNC were selling “SLUTS VOTE” buttons to reference to when Rush Limbaugh went all crazy on Sandra Fluke and called her all those names, and she would like you to know that WHOA GUYS, THAT IS NOT COOL.

“The Illinois delegation brought some swag to the DNC,” she writes, “Because nothing says ‘respect women’ like wearing a giant slut button.”

Ah, so you’re saying the word “slut” is kind of disrespectful, maybe? A degrading slur custom-designed to attack a woman for her sexual identity? Glad we can finally agree on something.

But, just to be sure, let us unsheath our hypocrisy alarm to get a read on this “slut” business, because—

Damn. The hypocrisy alarm broke. Third one this week.

The cause of the break was caused by Loesch deciding that referencing Limbaugh’s insults was pretty much the same as agreeing with Limbaugh’s insults, and nobody over in the Big Misinformation Troll Hut appears to have corrected her, a deficiency most likely explained by most of the troll hut residents… agreeing with Limbaugh’s insults.

How did Loesch’s Zombie Breitbart colleagues deal with the scandal, other than turning Rush Limbaugh lambasting a grad student into a sinister Obama plot?

Well, here’s a story from April, gleefully relating the news that Georgetown University would not be revising its contraception coverage. What’s the lede on this one?

Sandra Fluke, the militant feminist activist-cum-Georgetown Law School student, has fallen short in her effort to force Georgetown to pay for her birth control.

Charming. What a lovely way to frame the debate over women’s reproductive rights.

And here’s Sam Sorbo, a week ago:

…although his choice of language was unfortunate, it wasn’t wholly inaccurate. If someone (the government) pays for her to have sex, then, there’s a name for that.

Quick translation: Not letting your employer dictate your medical treatment means the government is paying you to have sex. Just so you know. Unless you’re a guy getting Viagra, in which case the “name for that” is medical insurance.

But there’s one more example that the Troll Hut residents don’t mind the word slut, even though Dana Loesch thinks it’s so degrading. Here’s a tweet from one of them, from back in March:

If you expect me to pay higher insurance premiums to cover your ‘free’ birth control, I can call you whatever I want.

Well, that’s the opposite of what Dana Loesch is saying people should do! Who tweeted that? OH IT WAS DANA LOESCH I FORGOT.

So listen, people with the slut buttons: It’s disrespectful to call women sluts, unless you disagree with their views on health care, in which case, yes, they are sluts, because of the dictionary, and also screw Obamacare. [Big Government]
