Rush Limbaugh STILL is a big, fat idiot

After watching Michael J. Fox's comercial promoting stem cell research, for which he deliberately did not take his Parkinson's meds so as to show the effects of the disease, Rush came to the conclusion that Michael was "faking it".
Maybe they should ask Rush's ex-wives to see how good he is at recognizing when someone is "faking it".

Rush is such an ass. He needs to go back on the Oxycontin, then OD on it.

Rush Limbaugh may still be a big, fat idiot, but Al Franken's radio network is in Chapter 11. :-)

Lol!!! Sorry Maggie, typo. Fixed. :-)
And yup. Air America is in Chapter 11. Sad isn't it? I like most of the programming on there but sometimes they get just as rabid and one-sided as the right-wingers.

The network was doomed from the start. You see, there really isn't a paying audience for angry people complaining about Bush on the radio. There may have been an audience willing to donate to keep the network going, ripping Bush, but the fact is that the market is saturated.

You don't need that type of network. You already have 4 or 5 TV networks that do that. It's old.

Pick up a newspaper...read a magazine....go see a movie, they are all ripping Bush.

The reason that I, El Rushbo, continue to kick ass and take names is that I explain (with references) all the BS of what's going on in the drive by media.

Whether there is a Clinton or not, I'm making money hand over fist.

I'm still holding out hope the Air America can get it together. If we can't get one place to give equal time to both sides then at least both sides can get air time.

As for the 4-5 TV networks bashing Bush, the networks bash anyone in office.
They don't care who it is.

So would be The Washington Times, the New York Post, and even the early years of Fox News without continuing cash infusions from their owners.

Just goes to show you why Liberals are better than conservatives.

UT's quick and dirty and unfair media political bias guide:
PHP Code:

`AirAm    |   `NBC  `AP

`CBS       WaPost
                    NYTimes 
Pew Research says the people sway this way:



And now you know why Fox gets the ratings that it does, and why AirAm can't survive.

Geez that chart tells me there are those who wish to do something (Moderates and Conservatives) and those who just want to complain - liberals. Hmmm

Interesting, with that spread, in 2000, Bush lost the popular vote.

"That spread" is from 2006 not 2000.
