And I realize you do.
My point was in todays age of ADD and constant stimulation there are many people who think that NPR is boring. You know, because there arent any confrontations and flags waving and eagles flying in the background, etc...

Are you Lolling for or against Limbaugh? This is a serious question, I can't really tell and don't know whether to argue with you or +1 you.SQ_Crazies wrote: LOL @ Rush Limbaugh being a "performer".

Just look at his post stating that "1 American life is worth 100 ragheads".
That's how the propoganda works.
RE: Edit...no personal attacks. PTown....saying that I think someone is a dittohead is a personal attack? Limbaugh followers love being called dittoheads. There was no malice intended.

Propaganda? LMAO! I formed that opinion on my own, trust me, I'm not easily persuaded. Rush Limbaugh is a smart man though, I understand the haters--there are always haters--but most of them are only buying into the PROPAGANDA about Rush and haven't ever spent any significant amount of time listening to him.
I Wear Pants, Rush is my homeboy.

I don't know what you want from me. You're a supporter of one of the biggest douchebags in the country. A dude that is as disgusting as he is popular and boy is he popular.

No. Rush is just a smart man, not a douche bag. You don't like him because of party lines, it's just the politics. Politics divides people almost as much as religion. Rush is a genius. Politics force him to adjust his message to fit in with whatever political party holds more of the same ideals. Unfortunately that's how our country works, which also causes you to listen to him for 5 minutes, shut it off and say he's just a nut job Republican and the people that I listen to say different things so he must be a douche bag.

Rush Limbaugh is not a smart man. He is a bigot. Has nothing to do with party lines. I don't listen to Limbaugh for any amount of time, let alone 5 minutes. I don't listen to traditional news media very often. It's all bullshit from both political sides.

No because you formed an opinion, saying that he isn't smart and the's a bigot. And then admitted that you don't listen at all. And then said that you don't listen to traditional news very often, just after you spewed out the traditional Rush-hater line about how he's a dumb bigot.

But he is a bigot. He hates women and anyone who disagrees with him. He's also almost definitely a racist who has said that he wants the country to fail because his horse didn't win the race.

How do you know? You've already willingly admitted that you don't listen at all.

Dude, just stop before this gets worse for you. You original post is already exposed. You're literally just copying and pasting the mainstream media's statements on Rush Limbaugh.

Not sure if that makes any sense.I Wear Pants wrote: But he is a bigot. He hates women and anyone who disagrees with him. He's also almost definitely a racist who has said that he wants the country to fail because his horse didn't win the race.
I don't listen to him either. That means I don't know if he hates women. If I did listen to him, I don't know if I could discern that.
I disagree with alot of people who don't think like me, that doesn't make me a bigot. It makes me opinionated.
Also, are you really saying that you believe he is a racist because who he wanted to win, didn't? I think that Rush would have never wanted a democrat to win, no matter who it was, so I don't think skin color entered the equation. For all we know, he might have said the same thing about Hillary Clinton or John Kerry - would he still be racist?
Where I believe he was stupid was the "hope to fail" comment. To me, that was stupid, not racist.
I'm not going to throw highly charged names at him anymore than I have Obama.
And I think it's high-time that everybody just stopped with the name tossing.

I wasn't trying to associate his "hope to fail" comment with my opinion that he is probably a racist. I should have worded it differently so that it'd be more clear.
But I definitely appreciate the sentiment of your last sentence. I'll try to stick to arguing the mans opinions when they're brought up instead of attacking the man.

Also it's funny that you brought up John Kerry when quoting my post which mentioned horses. It's funny because John Kerry looks like a horse.

ahh! I'm glad you caught that because my initial thought was to stop at Hill Clinton. But, then I thought of the horse reference and decided to throw in Kerry as an afterthought haha!I Wear Pants wrote: Also it's funny that you brought up John Kerry when quoting my post which mentioned horses.

You might want to look up the demographics on who likes Rush Limbaugh. In general, women can't stand him. They can't stand him for reasons other than he smokes cigars.CenterBHSFan wrote:

I listened to him quite religiously for about 3 years when he first hit the airways. I think he's a huge bigot. And I base it on what I heard. Cutting him some huuuuge slack, he is at the very least, a race baiter. He shares condenscending views towards blacks virtually every day. As a white guy, I can tell you he was quite offensive.I disagree with alot of people who don't think like me, that doesn't make me a bigot. It makes me opinionated.
I can agree with you here on this point. Make no mistake about it, he would have railed just as hard had HillBill won. But it doesn't help your reputation as a bigot, whenever one plays "Barack the Magic Negro" on his show for days...just sayin.Also, are you really saying that you believe he is a racist because who he wanted to win, didn't?

Rush Limbaugh makes a large living in name calling. Any name calling he gets in return is apropos.Where I believe he was stupid was the "hope to fail" comment. To me, that was stupid, not racist.
I'm not going to throw highly charged names at him anymore than I have Obama.

Good news! Waste Management picked up my trash today.
As long as my trash is picked up, I don't care what the union does.

You should though. When the unions get their employees higher wages than they deserve, your cost as a consumer goes up.
