Here's my update on the latest Rush Limbaugh flap, where Denver media outlets are claiming he called for riots at the upcoming Democrat convention.
He never called for riots anywhere in his broadcast. Hoping something will happen so that an advantage will redound to you is not an incitement anywhere.
It's like hoping Kobe blows out a knee in the NBA Finals, as opposed to giving out his hotel room number in Boston over the air.
Pretty damned siily, but listening comprehension skills in America simply don't exist anywhere anymore, if they ever did.
J, Oh yea. OK
Gulp.
I um ah um think that Rush Limbaugh and the like are ruining talk radio, um, ah, um. Gulp. Swallow.
My show takes a higher course. Gulp. Breathe. Swallow.
The only thing that the Felon and Rush have in common is that no one under 55 is listening to either of them in Boston.
Well I am under 55 J Angel and I listen to Rush and so do most of my friends and they are under 55 as well. None of us listen to the FELON though.
I am only citing numbers that Brian posted here.
You may be the most popular person in your town, but "me and my friends" usually constitues a rather small market sampling.
I met Rush Limbaugh back in 1992 when I was a wicked Liberal...he was a very nice guy and very humble off the air...it was when he was broadcasting from WHDH for a visit and he bought McDonalds hamburgers for EVERYONE 'cuz it was "Meat Free Friday"...even thou' I love animals and was at the time a sorta Vegatarian (and Lib!) I thought it was funny. Maybe that's why I couldn't stay a Lib...some have NO sense of humour. I told Limbaugh I was a Lib and he was very sweet to me...in retrospect prolly 'cuz he know I didn't know the issues!
What are these Seminar callers? I have a very basic idea, but if someone could expound on it in an informative way, please educate...
I can't believe it, but I agree with Johnny Angels first post on this subject! Will the Liberals ever have their own version of Limbaugh thou?
Rush is out of his mind. Remember, this is a guy who blew out his own hearing because he is addicted to narcotics. The man is stone cold deaf and has robo ears because his personality defects compelled him to eat 80 percocets a day, and he didn't have the personal fortitude to just say NO. So it goes...Brian will defend Rush the drug addict and dump on Randi Goldklank the boozer.
Wishing for riots anywhere is sick. These ideas are so anti-USA and unpatriotic that I'm thinking Rush is back on the opiates again. This is just manic drug oriented thinking.....""Now, I am not inspiring or inciting riots. I'm dreaming. (singing to the tune of White Christmas) "I'm dreaming of riots in Denver.""
Why would "liberals want their own version of Limbaugh", there is a Limbaugh already.
That's like calling the Byrds the "American Beatles". They're the Byrds and the Byrds were amazing.
Limbaugh does what he does and he does it very well. Aping him will never succeed, even from an opposing viewpoint. Better to just do one's own thing and do it as well as you can.
Angel, when I asked if Liberals will ever have their own version of Rush Limbaugh I MEANT will they ever have a Liberal radio host who is almost synonymous with the Liberal movement AND has the #1 radio show in America AND is able to to have a MASSIVE group of Liberals listen to him/her and influence the Liberal movement! NOT the dopey question akin to someone being the NEW "Doors" or the NEW 'Marilyn Monroe '! DUH! That's how a 14 year old with unicorn posters on the wall would answer!
I'm NOT talking about APING...I'm talking about the counterpoint to not only the Conservative movement BUT also being able to grab millions of followers (in spite of his controversial drug-taking past!) and keep the Liberal party fired up with substance and it being VERY lucrative. Why shouldn't or couldn't there be since there are TWO major political parties with VERY opposing viewpoints? One succeeds and one tanks...or gets their money from the taxpayers (NPR)!!!!!
I'm another Rush listener who is under 55, but Rush is different than the Felon who is roughly the same age but sounds about 70.
what do "brush with the law" slimebaugh and the rev. wright have in common? they both
bespeak their dreams that turn into nightmares
for the rest of us. no offense to all the
posters that went before me. this is my update.
This is much ado about nothing. The Dems know that it'll be a whole lot easier corralling a bunch of Lib women and bringing them back into the tent than it would be to do the same with blacks. Ergo, Obama will be the guy. Besides, I don't think women know how to make Molotov cocktails.
The one who was talking about trouble was Al Sharpton. Rush replayed the interview with Bill O'Reilly and Sharpton said that if B. Hussein Obama does not get the nomination because of the super delegates and not because of the popular vote, then there will be demonstrations. Does that mean there could be riots? I think so. Did Rush call for riots? No. Did Sharpton call for riots? Not directly. But if they happen, the Rev. would not be dissapointed.
Can you say "Supreme Court"??
el rushbo is a hypocrite. . .too bad he won't just lose his voice
