A moerately bright 5 year could defeat Rush in a contest of ideas and political philosophy.

Sure he could, and the pope is a Jew.

His audience isn't interested in truth or ideas but in having their biases and fears confirmed.

If it makes you feel better to say that then you're free to blabber your nonsense. Maybe you could make 40 million or so per year doing it.

If his audience is interested in truth and ideas why do they continue listening to him? He routinely lies and rarely does much more than go over the GOP talking points for the day.

I just can't think of any one equivalent to Rush. Just an example to say that the right could start boycotting those in the liberal media who they think might be offensive to them.

You are kidding, right?

I personally never participate in these stupid boycotts. If kraft cheese is on sale and I have a coupon I'm likely going to buy it. I'm not aware how effective these boycotts were or if they even happened to any great extent. In fact I have never even heard of them until now except for the HBO thing. Thanks for pointing it out. Maybe if we all keep it up we can run everybody out of the advertising business.

IMO Bill Maher is a thinks-he-knows-it-all condescending asshole. He's not that funny. At least John Stewart is funny.

Explain how Rush'e treatment of the Lords army as christian freedom fighters and his suggustion of anti christian bias by Obama and a pro muslim stance wasnt reaffrming prejuduces and bias and exactly what part was true? It was a slime job on Obama meant to slander him unconnected to a dsingle fact of the issue at hand

I think I would need some more context like a transcript or a replay. I'm sure you could spin it.

I guess you'll have to point out the lies to me along with the context. He has his own talking points and criticizes many in the GOP.

You do realize Rush has this thing about illustrating absurdity by saying things that are absurd.

That was just on a quick search on google. Honestly, you claiming you could not think of one liberal who was summarily attacked for what he/she said was rather misleading if you... fact is, you didnt want to know. Deniability [;)]

Maybe.........for acting like human beings or for not being extreme enough......

Sorry, but you`re a bit late with the rush is kidding/doing performance-art lame-lies,lame-excuses,lame-dodges for his conduct.....no one`s buying that old story anymore.

How many more examples do you want? Or is it that you only want one as publicized as limbaughs?

There have been many boycotts. Its only your own fault that you dont know about them.

Dittoheads supporting Rush is supporting the notion the Lord's army are christian freedom fighters. Anyone who approves of a man that suports that group.....
