File:Shame On You Rush Limbaugh.ogv
Summary
"Rep Jackie Speier called out Rush Limbaugh for calling women's health advocate Sandra Fluke a slut and prostitute. During her impassioned speech on the House floor she called on advertisers to pull their ads from Limbaugh's show. If they don't pull the ads, Speier urged consumers to boycott their products.
Mr. Speaker, I rise this morning to say to Rush Limbaugh, shame on you. Shame on you for being the hatemonger that you are. Shame on you for being misogynistic. Shame on you for calling the women of this country prostitutes because that's what he did. 98% of the women in this country at some time in their lives used birth control. And yet he went on the air recently and called Sandra Fluke a slut and prostitute because she was trying to access birth control pills as a third-year law student at Georgetown. So I say to the women in this country, do something about this. I say to the women of this country, ask Century 21, Quicken Loans, Legal Zoom, and Sleep Number to stop supporting the hate mongering of Rush Limbaugh and if they do not do that, then I ask them to boycott those companies.
I yield back."
