“He’s a big wimpy chickenhawk who hides behind his microphone. Rush would wet his trousers if he ever had to face someone like John Edwards or Chris Dodd in a serious debate.”

Now O’Reilly would consider that last statement of mine “hateful.”

But George Allen’s now infamous “kick their soft teeth down their whiney throats” (how’s your dental work feelng these days, George) was “just politics.”

HYPOCRITES.  If nothing else, all of you “journalists” who went to Bush’s little bash get to wear that label henceforth, like a prison tattoo.

And no amount of parsing after this administration leaves or gets indicted, will ever remove it.

Congratulations, to Bush’s right wing hack rouge’s list, you are now permanently saddled with Bush’s own failures, because it was that group of writers who promulgated and promoted the Big Lie, once Rove and Cheney had put it to wrds.

I doubt that any of you even believe it. You are all just media prostitutes, and your future credibility is now completely lost, whether you know it or not.

And I think some of you do….

I live in an area of America where the majority of people not only listen to Rush, but believe everything he says to be the Word of God. I have often times wondered if the Republican party as we know it will survive the age of Independent news, where the truth can be found by anyone willing to look for it. Time will tell.

“Personally, I dislike the use of obscenity on the Web…”

E.J., take a walk out on the street, and just count the times you hear the “F” word. Grab a Taxi (I lived in The Village at one time, I know how NY cab drivers cuss.) Or just go to a Yankee’s game, when they are losing…

Even better, go to a behind-the-scenes meeting of Republican good old boys, and you’ll count even more swear words, especially the “F” word.

I agree, good journalists are public examples, and our language always matters, especially when young people read them. 

But “The blogs” are just an internet version of “the street,” so don’t expect the language to be much different.  And you can’t avoid hearing it on the street, on the blogs, you have to be willingly looking to read those words…

“I find it chilling that reactionary windbags like Limbaugh and O’Riley have such a large audience..”

Do you actually believe those numbers?

Book-cookers have an amazing way of inflating their numbers.

Remember Rove’s “I’ve got my numbers, you’ve got yours” prognostications…

Clearly, someone fooled the boy-genius Karl.

Maybe they are fooling all of us about their ratings, too…

“He deserves major credit for the Republicans’ 1994 landslide.”

Just as he deserves major credit for winning Missouri for Claire McCaskill, when he trashed Michael Fox so callously.

But, actually, E.J., Limbaugh was more a symptom of our cultural division, than he was a progenitor of it. It was like a chicken-egg conundrum, Rush was more an opportunist than he was a mover and shaker.

He took his talking points from others, and just juiced them up with his personal brand of vitriole, which was his only real tool.

Logic and reason were never part of his influence, he depended on blind ignorance and negativism for his success.

Not a very worthy resume, in the history of journalism. No one can even name a single worth program he has honestly supported, his entire schtick is hate.

And the copycats like O’Rielly, Hannity, Coulter, Drudge, Malkin, Borscht, and now Beck The Feckless, all subscribe to the same hatefulness to keep theri ratings up.

Rush is not powerful, hatefulness is. He’s a big wimpy chickenhawk who hides behind his microphone. Rush would wet his trousers if he ever had to face someone like John Edwards or Chris Dodd in a serious debate.

Rush was just willing to personify that evil hatefulness, more than any other hack in the media, so now people attribute his success to some quality of character on his part, and it was his very lack of any quality of character that gave him his delusions in the first place. And his oxycontin addiction and McNab bigotry only proved his ultimate hypocrisy.

Now that he’s contributed so mightily to the Democrats’ majority in Congress, no one whould be bragging about his influence creds. Like Beck, he’s a joke, to anyone with an IQ over 80.

It is tough to shut down a moron like Limbaugh when the media is owned by a few neo-conservatives. With radio in the hands of 3-4 big shots, and advertisers only using these stations; remember Americans don’t read, they listen or watch the Telly. So newspapers were ineffective for liberals or moderates and books were out of the question. Lucky for thinking persons the Internet came along and the Bush-ites are trying to cut it up. So far the Internet and Google allow people to ferret out the truth and see how outlandish and uncreditable O Reilly, and Limbaugh really are. These two really do define the word Blow-Hards.

Limbaugh is an ass of the highest order.  In case you haven’t seen this “interpretation” check out:

It’s great!

The best thing that happened to handle Limbaugh was when some of his critics started documenting and publicizing his lies.
