So whatever happened to Rush Limbaugh?

[Girard442]

Once upon a time, the Outrage Du Jour usually came from him. Now, you almost never hear about him. Did he get pushed out of that many markets?

Or, did he have a crisis of conscience and is now trying to mitigate some of the damage he did over the years he was popular?

I kid.

1. An even bigger blowhard came down the pike

[Aristus]

5. No kidding.

Limbaugh is a fat, ugly, repulsive loudmouth with a taste for prescription painkillers and 14 year-old Dominican prostitutes.

And he still has his thunder stolen by Tangerine Tinyhands...

[Girard442]

6. LOL. Poor Rush.

8. Lindbaugh helped create this mess.

Lindbaugh was one of the originators of the hatred that has been destroying our country - never based on facts, just a blowhard with an inflammatory rhetoric. A degree in political science? I don’t think so. I, for one, am glad to see him losing advertisers. First came Lindbaugh, then along comes the Tea Baggers with their extremist right wing ideology, which, by the way, was always a Republican goal - that of pulling the country as far to the right as they possibly could so that Democratic concessions would be forced to gradually move more to the right. Then add FUX Entertainment to the mix and here we are, mired in shit up to our chins and dealing with a communist plant in the White House.

So far, we still have the right to free speech. We do, however, need to be intelligent enough to discern crap from reality, and the past several years have shown us to be more gullible than intelligent. In some ways, this is true on both sides. Outside interference can shape attitudes as much as idiot radio and TV personalities.

God Bless the Constitution of the United States of America. Let’s all drop down on our knees and pray that this whole mess doesn’t end up in civil war.

2. He's still festering out there in the conservative media manure pile...

...he's just been surpassed by a newer, flashier master of the Reign Of Error.

4. Still there - lying about everything, running his mouth, praising Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin

[lunasun]

7. He is not gone and is on hundreds of radio stations with millions listening every day . Nothing he

talks about is funny to me

[peekaloo]

9. I'm amused that Trump has a gold toilet and Ru$h has a gold microphone.

Both instruments channel a lot of shit.

10. He is spending more time working on the republican dickhead farm

cultivating more young dickheads. Several he helped cultivate were on display in Congress Thursday.

[Girard442]

11. LOL @ "Dickhead Farm."

"Ma, where do we keep the Roundup?"

[fallout87]

12. Unfortunately he's the number 4 listened to

radio program in the nation. 14 million listeners each week.

16. Coast To Coast has really

gone downhill since Art Bell (RIP) left the show.

Where can I get my alien, bigfoot, poltergheist news now?

[Ilsa]

13. He runs 55 minutes of commercials, 5 minutes of talk.

His sponsors probably pay next to nothing. Who wants to listen to ads?

[ProfessorGAC]

14. That Show Has Been A Conservative Loss Leader for Years!!

Despite the manipulated ratings numbers, the show has lost $ almost since it's inception.
The whole "support" thing has been underwritten by uber wealthy media moguls who want the country in their 2 dimensional image.

[LAS14]

15. Thanks goodness the top 3 shows are all Public Radio.

All Things Considered, Morning Edition and MarketPlace. But it's scary that Limbaugh is fourth.

17. His doppelganger became president.

[malaise]

18. He suddenly went quiet after Hannity was exposed

I found that interesting
