The insanity continues:
Rush Limbaugh has drawn the ire of celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred, who sent a letter to the Palm Beach County state attorney requesting an investigation into whether the popular radio host should be prosecuted for calling a law student a “slut” and “prostitute” last week. …
In a letter dated March 8, Allred, writing on behalf of the Women’s Equal Rights Legal Defense and Education Fund, requested that Palm Beach County State Attorney Michael McAuliffe probe whether the conservative radio personality had violated Section 836.04 of the Florida Statutes by calling Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke the two derogatory words.

You see, the Left cannot bear to have this story fade away. It’s critical to their efforts to lure women voters to Obama in November. … At least, that’s what they think.
And lest we think this is not newsworthy, this is the #1 top viewed story at Politico over the last 12 hours.
— Back to the story:
[Allread cites] Section 836.04 of the Florida Statutes. … The statue stipulates that anyone who “speaks of and concerning any woman, married or unmarried, falsely and maliciously imputing to her a want of chastity” is guilty of a misdemeanor of the first degree.
So my questions is, would it be a violation of this statute to call Allred a media whore?
