9. Only way to increase his market share is to admit to
a marketing company you listen.

I listen to him, even though he ticks me off, because I refuse to have blinders on and I want to get my information from all sources.

I have found that the Bush lovers ONLY listen to Rush and ONLY watch Faux News. That's why they're ignorant.

I don't want to be like them and only listen to AAR and Democracy Now.

10. I dont' know
I agree that listening to Rush isn't for everybody--but millions of our fellow citizens do listen to him. And it's good to know what he's saying so we can counter it.

On the other hand his dissection of Teresa Heinz Kerry's speech last night was just awful. It's just an attempt to paint her as an out of touch elitist who thinks the whold campaign is being run for her amusement. Pity that description much more closely describes the current occupent of the White House.

18. My Listening Makes No Contribution To His Bottom Line
I do not patronize any of his advertisers. And his ratings actually went DOWN thanks to me, when I kept an Arbitron diary for a month.

Someone has to listen to keep tabs on this asshole......

26. Question On Rush
I can't take listening to him, so don't but one of my coworkers does and when I ride with him over the noon hour if we go out to eat, I get to hear him. Listening to him rant and rave sort of ruins the lunch hour though.

Question is where does he find these so called Kerry supporters that call him? Have heard them a couple of times and they always come off as ignorant asses.

Do you think they are for real? Can't imagine any liberal or democrat bothering to call this guy, you are just set up for going no where.

31. Dirty Little Secret...
There's no rule or law that says a caller on a show like Rush's has to be who they are. Since this show is considered "entertainment" this opens the door to allowing what I call "phantom callers" that are set up to make the host look good or just to generate calls when no one else is calling in.

It's a dirty little secret...not quite so secret, and part of the game "talk shows" play...especially now. With digital editing and delays a host can virtually edit a call live as it's happening to cut out certain points or comments he doesn't want listeners to hear (and has 20 seconds to do it).

Several years ago, I busted someone whom we found out was claiming he had certain "authorities" and celebrities as guests. In reality it was some friends of his in Cincinnatti, including several local actors who would appear in several roles...as guest and caller on the same show. The bastard moved on to another market...and pulled the same shit there. He was busted after claiming he was interviewing Dr. Margaret Sanger; the founder of modern birth control. The problem is Ms. Sanger died in 1967. Ooops. Busted again...but he's still on the air and in a major market. I report, you decide

Cheers!

4. Shut it off and put on Air America
The other thing is pathetic, not uplifting, and a waste of time.

No Air America stations in my area, and my company's firewall will not allow audio streaming.

17. Exactly! He just lost his third wife and the conservative ...
family values drug addict is ridiculing the Kerry's marriage. Poor Rush he doesn't have room to talk anymore and his girth doesn't have anything to do with it. He's broken every one of the so called conservative values.

8. Fat ass drug addict
That's what limburger (Cheese, very stinky) is and always will be. He has an audience that is about the same. Hard to know we all breathe the same air as he. Someday these tidwits, Limburger, O'Smiley and the rest will be gone. The culture is getting fed up with these "Unreality" shows. The pendulum will swing back and he can sit in his house all by himself.

Have a good life limburger

11. He started in rare form: His tongue slipped: Osama Obama..
and after a hasty apology, he went on to a parody of Kerry's-water-taxi-as-swift-boat and then asked where the "gooks" were.

I think he's back on drugs.

15. Tuning in to Rush Limbaugh
makes about as much sense to me as walking into the path of an oncoming semi.

16. No, it's not quite that bad. It's more like
reaching down into the toilet and squeezing a turd between your fingers.
And makes about as much sense.

21. Earlier he was berating 'liberals' for having no substance
when criticizing Bush.

My jaw dropped when most of these right wing talk show folks spend 90% (my non-scientific calculation) of their time doing just what you brought up. As a matter of fact, he just got done doing it!

It's would be laughable if people didn't take these blowhards so seriously.

23. Limbaugh
You should be listening to him now.

He is blasting Ron Reagan now.

Says he and his mother are being used by the democrats over this stem cell research.

Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 02:03 PM by joefree1
Since now even my conservative relatives can't stand the hypocrite I no longer hear of him. And I'm just happy as can be no longer knowing what the turgid turd is up to.
