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.

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 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 is soooooo pre-Fluke.

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.


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

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.

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.

Attacked with a boycott ? No

Try googling "the Hollywood ten".
Or do blacklists not count as a boycott?

The thing is if it is performance art it isnt speech is it? Also, how many of those who claim look at the libs they cant stand other points of view when refering to Rush and call him an entertainer in one breath and talk about libs hating his "ideas" in the next. Which party bans books based on religon and ideology in schoolboards? That isnt a free speech party and Rush has been fine with the tactic...to bad fatboy it came back to nest

It's not the examples either it's the context. No one and I mean no one has ever spent half a week savagely attacking and slandering a "civilian". 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.....

Status: offline 		I support his freedom to say whatever he wants. I also support my freedom to say he is a fucktard and I dont want him attacking women as sluts simply because he doesnt like what they say.

And that is the crux of the issue.

Fluke said something Rush didnt agree with... so his freedom of speech allowed him to call her a slut.

Rush said something I didnt agree with... him calling Fluke a slut.. and I am exerting my freedom of speech as a result.

Anyone got a valid argument against this? Speak up.

I'm far from a Rush supporter, but he did backpedal during the same broadcast.
