HELP! I need good anti-Rush Limbaugh sites
This from an email from a conservative acquaintance:

> Rush Limbaugh has said that Clinton was a liar, and what do you
>know... He was right! Just because he's a radio personality doesn't
>discredit him from knowledge or intelligence. You may not like what he's
>saying or how he says it, but it certainly doesn't make him wrong. In fact,
>I would love for someone to show me anywhere Rush has been wrong in
>predicting an outcome or action, politically. I don't listen to him much,
>but I do respect what I have heard of his (when he's not simply making fun
>of people) thoughts. Because someone says something certainly doesn't mean
>that it's true, but when it turns out to be true, that person is ultimately
>found to be correct.


I need websites that point to specific things Rush has said that were proven later to be false, particularly ones that show he reported events that were known to be untrue at the time.

5. Right. You want to validate an AM Tawk Radio entertainer? What for?
Why even acknowledge he exists? The most POWERFUL thing you can do is pretend he doesn't exist, and then LAUGH when someone says he's all that.

All ya gotta say is "You expect me to value the words of some guy drives a horse and buggy?"

Because that is the parable to AM radio. The horse and buggy.

Then laugh and change the subject. See, it's not worth your time.
