is just one of many stories which will bring Rush to his knees over
the next few weeks. First he was forced to resign from ESPN, and now
his syndicated radio show will be trashed as his listeners leave in
droves.

You can't be a druggie and a racist while still pretending to occupy
the conservative moral high ground.

BYE BYE, RUSH!!!



I doubt Rush is a racist.

He frequently has black guest hosts when he's on vacation.

When he had his syndicated TV show a significant part of the crew were "non whites". (the whole crew was on camera for the Christmas shows.)

I'm not a football fan, so I have no idea if his comment was accurate regarding the QB, but in the past, I've heard Rush say something along the lines of: People who pander based on race are racist because they presume certain races have limited ability
and need preferential treatment to succeed.

I think sports fans often have a different sort of prejudice - "players on the team I like are great, players on the other team are lousy". Perhaps this was a factor - I have no clue what team(s) Rush roots for.

We'll see what Rush has to say about the drugs - my guess is there is at least some truth to it because his initial comment about it was he didn't know of any investigation but will cooperate.

Unless legal problems get in the way, I expect he'll retain most of his audience.


Rush is an entertainer plain and simple. He's too smart too believe his own
bull****.

How many movie stars have a drug problem? Do you say the same thing
about them?


Yes if they behave like Rush Limbaugh.

Limbaugh routinely insults those he disagrees with. He gives them nasty
nicknames; he mocks them, besmirches them and makes fun of them far more adeptly
than his current attackers.

Are you sure you aren't describing Al Frankin?



Ya, I guess Al Frankin does this too.

But I am definately describing Rush Limbaugh in this case.


And Al Frankin.


Okay I guess every time Rush Limbaugh is metioned, Al Frankin also has to be
metioned.

I forgot since Rush wasn't on today, The Rush-bots go back to the default answer
of AL Frankin or Bill Clinton, until has able to tell them what to think.

N8KDV,

It's no longer - what he said that is important [.]

Its what the Media "News Makers" say that he said.
- - - For They All Know What He Really Meant !

It's not the Law or Right or Wrong.
- - - The Concept of Innocent Until Proven Guilty is Out of Date.

It the Simple Fact of the Charges.
- - - The Seriousness of these Charges that is Paramount.

These Serious Charges must Be Investigated
- - - and Given a Full Public Hearing.
- - - The Facts and The Truth are Secondary.

The Seriousness of the Charges are All Important.
- - - The Facts be Dammed
- - - The Truth be Dammed

We Must Extract Our Pound of Flesh !
- - - For the Media "News Makers" have
- - - Educated each of us to understand.
- - - For We Now All Know What He Really Meant !

nothing racist there at all. Please tell me what was racist about it.

As for his ALLEGED drug use... innocent until proven guilty. At the same
time, there are lots of folks out there who get hooked on pain killers,
nothing new about that.

Addictions can be cured, and in many instances have little to do with
whether a person is 'good' or 'bad'.

Hell, I don't listen to Rush, and haven't in almost a decade.
See, unlike the leftwingers, I don't need a cheerleader, and
unlike the rightwingers, I don't need a band playing Pomp
and Circumstance. I think for myself. I just wonder why
so many liberals...aren't very liberal at all? So much hatred
and vituperative from both sides, so much fiddling while
Rome burns, well, it's all very sad. But hey, polish up those
pom poms! You've got some cheering to do, Cheerleaders!
