The Al Franken stuff my be biased. But this is not. Its from FAIR, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting.

What rush said

Taken right from Hush's mouth.

"Somebody took my phone number and called Afghanistan. Afghanistan! I've never talked to anyone in Afghanistan, I don't know nobody in Afghanistan, and even if did know anyone, I wouldn't talk to that Afghan ass for three hours! I won't talk to my daddy for three hours."

Well, it was the first half of an entire BOOK, not just a press release. I felt the material was researched and presented clearly, identifying actual "facts" that Rush spewed forth on the air, and the truth, which was not at all helpful to Rush's cause.

I remember being tortured by Rush's claims of superior intelligence, his pompous delivery and his damning of public servants, be they Demorcrats or anyone left of center.

Whoever said Rush is a character, like Imus' "Moby Worm" or "The Radio Chick," is right. That also gives me perspective and helps erase the ghosts of ex-girlfriends father's who were my boss.

See my status to understand more...

HEYYYYYY! It's Rush-O! Look, I'm going deaf! I can't hear anymore! My boss says I have to retire, but I've locked myself in the studio and I'm going to keep going!

Why is it not biased? Becuase they call themselves FAIR? If Hitler called the Nazis "We love Jews" would it make it true? They are a completely biased publication. The article and book was loaded with personal attacks.

I know that Limbaugh put out a reply to that report where he stated that most of what they are calling lies are merely different opinions from different sources.

But anyway, he could be completely wrong. Just don't fall for the sham that an organization is unbiased just becuase they SAY they are or their name implies it.

Isn't there also a ton of groups with nice sounding names that are mouthpieces for the right?

I've HEARD Rush make a lot of statements that left me scratching my head.......
Like how disposing of toxic waste (and all other refuse)in the trenches of the oceans is economical and completely safe.

That was exactly what I was talking about- Rush used to make outlandish statements about the left, with nothing more than a declarative tone in the place of the actual truth.

Scrappleking, good one, comparing Schlock-o to Rush-o.

Maybe FAIR isn't 100% unbiased, but neither is a Rush Limbaugh site disputing the facts that FAIR reported. It sounds like Rush is staying on the air, so I guess this thread doesn't really matter anymore. The other day Rush played a clip and while it went out over the air, it didn't play in studio. This totally through Rush off. He said something like, "well, it didn't play in the studio, but I guess that really doesn't matter anyway." So even Rush himself thinks the situation has some humor in it.

"Somebody took my phone number and called Afghanistan. Afghanistan! I've never talked to anyone in Afghanistan, I don't know nobody in Afghanistan, and even if did know anyone, I wouldn't talk to that Afghan ass for three hours! I won't talk to my daddy for three hours."

That's exactly the point I was trying to make. You can find facts and figures that support either side of an argument. Who's right, who's wrong, who knows. No one really changes anyones mind or opinion.

Yeah yeah yeah, old topic brought up. And yeah yeah yeah, the news that I just found out is two months old so, though it wasn't on the board, it has probably been covered on the show, various news sources, and most people probably already know everything about it. (So maybe it'll be on OTL next week - HA!!)

But, the guy has his hearing back. I remembered reading about him potentially going in for cochlear implant if the hearing didn't return. He had lost 100% of his hearing in one ear over 90% in another due to some mystery illness.

Well, it never got better, so he went in for a new procedure that was irreversible to replace his entire ear drum. If it didn't take he'd be deaf for life.

But it fucking worked, and he's got 90% of his hearing back.

Like I said the news came out in January initially, but I was just so shocked when I heard it that I had to bring this topic back up. Fucking A, science can do everything.

Also, I am a liberal, but thats not why I think Rush losing his hearing is funny. Its funny because a pompus windbag radio host can't hear no more, THATS funny.



Is Rush Limbaugh a fan of professional wrestling? Probably not, but it's kind of a shame. He'll be saying a Stone Cold catch phrase for the rest of his life. "What?" I said he'll be saying a Stone Cold catch phrase for the rest of his life. "What?" I said he'd be saying a Stone Cold catch phrase for the rest of his life.
"What?" Are you deaf or something, bitch? "Well, actually, yes I am."

i used to listen to rush, then one day he was talking about a study that was done on the crime rates and gun control( the study stated that gun control was actually causing crime rates to rise).rush was using this study to support his statements. i knew the study was methodologically questionable and i wanted to bring up some arguments(raised by specific scholars, not me) on
his show and his screeners wouldnt let me through.ever since then i noticed that none of his callers ever raise a strong argument against the points he makes. i don't think he wants to look like he's any less than perfect, and thats no way to run a talk radio show.(wait isn't that how howard runs things too)
