Limbaugh: "You can legalize rape and call it the Civil Rights Act of 2009, it would probably pass"

From the July 1 edition of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:

You could legislate clear cutting of huge stands of trees and call it the "Healthy Forests Act". No, Dumbya did that, too.
I would legislate Rush's foaming at the mouth, and call it "The Hoof-in-mouth Bill of 2009". It still wouldn't pass. Too many people know that Rush's foaming is a biohazard looking for a Superfund site to land in.
This guy is so obsessed with this word lately is sickening.
Lets outlaw talk radio and call it the Civil Rights act of 2009. Getting this guy off the air would be more of an equivalent of that.
I dislike like Rush, but I dislike censorship even more.
When the GOP gains power again we don't want them to outlaw liberal commentators.
Now, is Rush trying to equate civil rights with rape? Sounds like it.
The most recent example of abuse by Credit Card companies that is allowed in the "fine print" was Chase changing the minimum monthly payment from 2% to 5%.
What if they decided to raise it to 10% or 20%.
The financial "schemes" that these companies come up with need to regulated. Like 0% financing for a year... and oh by the way.. if you don't pay in full you are liable for 30% of the total cost.
It's deceptive and immoral.. why should we allow finance companies deceiving consumers.
The auto industry has to put all information on the sticker and they aren't allowed to hide or minimize MPG or anything like that.
We have rules for false advertising for retail stores "bait and switch", etc... why are the financial companies exempt?
Something for Rush... don't use it all in one show.
