Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin waded into the Sandra Fluke-Rush Limbaugh controversy Tuesday by demanding that President Obama return comedian Bill Maher’s $1 million donation to his Super PAC.
“Pres. Obama says he called Sandra Fluke because of his daughters. For the sake of everyone’s daughter, why doesn’t his super PAC return the $1 million he got from a rabid misogynist?” Palin wrote on her wrote on her facebook page.
President Obama told reporters Monday that he called the feminist activist and Georgetown law student because he was thinking about his two daughters when he heard that Limbaugh had called her a “slut” and a “prostitute.”
Maher referred to Gov. Palin on his show on Sept. 16, 2011 as a c—t in a pornographic context. (Ed. note: We opted not to post the video because of its extremely distasteful content. If you choose to watch it, click here.)
Posters on Palin’s Facebook page chimed in.
“Where was the media outcry when Bill Maher called you names that were much worse than what Rush said?” poster Tom McCartney said. “I don’t think what Rush said was right but the hypocrisy of the media is unfathomable and even President Obama is weighing in now.”
