Terms of enragement

I turned the TV on early this morning while I was still in bed. Two anchorwomen were talking about how many times they and other women they knew had been called sluts by Conservative media members. They were outraged, but it seemed almost a badge of honor to be labeled such by the likes of Limbaugh and Savage. It reminded me of several campaigns ago when all the candidates seemed to be vying for the honor of having grown up using an outhouse. I didn't see this morning's anchors because I wasn't ready for that so early so I don't know their names, but one of them signed off by telling the slut-word users to "shut their cake-holes." We're all so classy now.
