WTF?

Fatty:
Last week, hate radio host Rush Limbaugh judged the Miss America pageant. Today 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.
If I was a woman, I'd be pretty offended. As a self-confessed male pig, I can't help but think hey, it's a funny line. Of course, as an American, I'm supremely offended that for some reason this motherfucker is a judge in the Miss America pageant. I mean, seriously? This isn't why the terrorists hate us, THIS IS WHY WE HATE US!!!!!!!!
