Wow, what an open minded person you are. Nothing but partisan politics for
you I see.

Back to the topic. What Rush said was certainly not racist. It was
politically
incorrect but not racist.

Jim, I'm not referring to the Donovan McNabb comment. Most of the comments Rush
makes are just a whacky, only his audience is so emotionally invested they
don't recognize the manipulative techniques he's using.

I'm disappointed in the fact that there is enough evidence to allege that Rush
Limbaugh has a serious addiction to narcotics. Big time. Not that unusual for
an "entertainer" (which is what he is, kind of like WWF- there are folks who
think it's real) but out of character for a guy who has spent probably a
thousand hours on the air blasting away at drug addicts and junkies.

I would like to hear the other side of the story. If, in the end, the facts show him
to be a drug junkie I will agree with you 100% and say that he should retire in
disgrace.

On another note I also think that the partisan view of Arnold (as previously stated) is
wrong. The guy is an admitted sexual offender and has no place in politics.

show him
to be a drug junkie I will agree with you 100% and say that he should retire

We've got to stop agreeing like this. Third or fourth time this year! People
will talk. :-)

Why the disappointment? Surely you were aware Limbaugh and the trash in
his audience were hypocrites.

I don't know that many right wing dopers.
Drunks, yes. By the ton......but I'm just more used to alcohol being the drug
of choice among conservatives. One is accustomed to falling down drunks wailing
about "drug abusers", (not that everybody who does so is a drunk, of course).
If the allegations against Rush's narctoic addiction prove to be true, that's
not only hypocritical- it should be considered a breach of trust by every one
of his followers.

The buzz on one of our local talk stations was pretty funny tonight. One
station has a mix of moderate and conservative hosts.
A conservative host was running a monologue about the RL drug scandal, and I
laughed so hard I almost wrecked the car!
General line: "The liberals are showing their true colors with this Rush
Limbaugh situation. They are willing to use this weakness to try to destroy his
career! His political enemies are sinking so low, they are trying to distract
us with this single factor and ignore the majority of what Limbaugh stands for
and what he has done! It will backfire on them. The public doesn't like a witch
hunt!"

Thoughts of Monica-Gate and $60mm spent by Ken Starr trying to dig up dirt on
another well known political persona in the past came immediately to mind. I
guess is
low and dirty if the target is a conservative, but an act of patriotism
preserving national security when the target is a moderate or a liberal. :-)

I love the part about "what Limbaugh stands for and what he has done."

To me, Limbaugh is *the* symbol of the non-thinking, self-centered,
selfish, racist, xenophobic, divisive, woman-hating modern
"conservative" that is destroying America. Limbaugh is clever with the
quips, no question about it, but he has done all of us great harm over
the years, stirring up his pack of angry white men and reinforcing their
mindlessness. There's at least a half-dozen examples of Rushophiles
right on this newsgroup.

Limbaugh deserves payback for the harm he has done. He'd best serve
himself and us by getting off the drugs and off the radio.

Ah, the Democratic party line. You guys don't have one single stance or
issue that sells...so, instead, you sell sleaze. There's not much
difference between the National Enquirer and the NY or LA Times these days.
I wouldn't even wipe my ass with a one of 'em.

Oh, puh-lease. All Limbaugh sells is sleaze, and the lowest common
denominators - like you - lap it up.

I mighjt be angry, but I have reason for it, america is going to hell in an
handbasket because of the people. We need to unite and fight against the
rupublicuns.
