    Oh no! Not Prickly City!

    I love the idea of Rush as the new GOP leader. He’s really the kind of leader they deserve – he embodies their core ignorant values, he is a *cough* eloquent speaker, he really “fires up the base”, etc. (if people like Limbaugh and Palin fire up your base.. there’s a problem with your base!).

    You know what,s been bugging me for several years now, didn’t people used to get prosecuted by the fcc for knowingly spreading lies and hate onour public airwaves? I believe it would be well worth revisiting that body of law! Anybody out there know about this, did it happen with the ever F**KING wonderful deregulation syndrome?

    You know what’s inbetween your gut feeling(emotion), and your mind(reason)…YOUR HEART, where something more than this experience resides. People should read the book, The Little Prince, then search their hearts!

    Rush isn’t the problem. As I watch rush I can tell even he doesn’t buy 95% of his own bullshit. The sad part though is millions of americans don’t see through the complete and utter bullshit that is a typical rush broadcast, and they actually buy the rhetoric. Rush isn’t the problem, idiotic americans are the problem.

    Rush is filling a niche, and that niche is broadcasting hate and narrominded partisanship to dullwitted hateful americans. He makes a fortune lying to them every single day.

    He should be taken to court more often though for his libel and slander, but he’s usually shrewd enough to do it in a manner which would keep his ass out of jail. Even if he pays a few fines, they’re nothing compared to the millions he makes spreading deceit and hate.

    Even sadder than the idiotic americans that listen to him is that there are so many companies willing to pay to advertise on his show. But I guess that makes sense, if you buy into rush’s bullshit, you’ll probably buy into advertising propaganda as well.

    As long as he appeals to the twenty some percent who like him he is a fantastic success. It doesn’t matter what the rest of the country believes.
