RE: Limbaugh is voice of GOP majority?

[Eric Roberts]

I would agree with that to an extent, but calling someone a slut or a 
whore/prostitute or similar degrading monikers still crosses the line...even 
for people that are in the public eye.  At least when Ed did that and 
everyone...including liberals castigated him for...he apologized immediately 
and placed himself on suspension as a result of the complaints.

Moreover there are very different rules for those in the public eye, such as 
Coulter or Malkin than for a private citizen exercising her constitutional 
rights.
