Last night on the Fox TV Sean Hannity show conservative talk-radio host
Rush Limbaugh advised that the Republicans reject moderates like John
McCain and Rudy Giuliano and nominate a right-wing candidate like
current Virginia Republican senator George Allan for president in 2008.

Limbaugh said that there in now a state of war between the Left and
Right in the U.S. and there is no possibility of compromise. The base of
the Democratic Left is radical, hate- America and its middle-class
capitalist republic.

Limbaugh stated that the Republicans best chance for political victory
is reaming well to the right like Ronald Regan and not try to appease
the Left in any way. This has been the mistake of George Bush, primarily
in his second term, of believing that there can be some kind of
compromise, that he could win some "liberals" over by granting
concessions. Bush tried that with disastrous results e.g. in allowing
Ted Kennedy to write his education policy, "Leave No Child Behind".

Limbaugh mentioned that talk radio which he more or less initiated back
in 1988 has been a decisive force in the rejuvenation of
U.S.conservatism, whose revolution actually began back in the 1960s
with William F. Buckley, National Review and Barry Goldwater. Now the
charge is being led by talk radio and Fox News for the battle of the
hearts and minds of the American people.

So, was he all fucked up on dope when he said this? I never listen to
addicts or drunks advise about anything. They will sell thier mother for a
fix or a drink. There is not one degree of speration between limbaugh and a
common crack head on the corner giving head for crack. Who in their right
mind would take advise from such a doped out reprobate? Limbaugh's brain is
mush from dope. He done so much dope he made himself deaf... LOL, and you
report his advice, you may as well report stuf written on bathroom walls as
anything that mush brain dope addict has to say. What a joke of a post, hey,
thanks for the laugh.

Did Limbaugh make that claim? It certainly is not true. Talk radio, even
the kind of crap he puts out, was popular well before 88.

Being from Virginia I could have explained what a Nazi-fascist former
Gov. George Allen is:

Now Limbo the drug addict has convinced anyone, with more emphasis than
I could have done.

No question that hatefilled crap has been spewed across the radio waves
since Father Coughlin .... but I think what Rush is referring to is the
fact that Reagan's executive order repealing the Fairness Doctrine made
rightwing talk radio shows like his possible. Richard Viguerie is
clear about that in his recent book. I think a lot of the echo chamber
we see on the Weapon of Mass Distraction known as TV is a direct result
of Reagan's decision to get rid of the Fairness Doctrine. I think it
has degraded public discourse and injures the republic.

Mrs. O'Leary: "Did you hear Father Coughlin's broadcast today? The
diryt Jews killed our savior. They made him wear a crown of thorns.
They made him carry the implement of his destruction while they whipped
him. And after they tormented the Son of God, they crucified him! And
now they want to take over Christian America!!!"

Mrs. O'Malley: "Oh my! The things you miss when you live in a
basement apartment."

Isn't it funny how you only hear the phrase "hate-America" coming
from the mouths of right wing so-called patriots?

Like the "president" who Rush loves the way a ten year old Russian kid in
the 1940s would love a Josef Stalin doll, old Rush is not really much of a
conservative. He is a profoundly ignorant authoritarian socialist who
worships at the alter of Big Government and Big Business and he is very well
compensated for it. He does not believe in limited government and he does
not believe in Original Intent. He is a propagandist, a warmonger, a spin
doctor and a hustler but not a conservative in any meaningful way.
"Conservatives" like Rush, Bill and Ann are simply a well funded group of
Americans who have some unique and genuinely bizarre ideas about what the
people who founded this country thought, wanted and intended. Ideas that
simply would not hold up to any sort of actual examination, if conservatives
were ever critically examined, which they are not because that would be a
"liberal" thing to do. Like most "conservatives," he loves it when the
government kills people, he loves it when the police beat people and he
invariably defends violence at almost every opportunity and under any and
all circumstances. If the people carrying out the violence are on the
payroll of US taxpayers, Rush invariably defends it in an automatic,
knee-jerk manner and nevermind the circumstances or the facts. Limbaugh
never met a war he didn't like, except, not surprisingly, Vietnam. He stayed
home, where he could love our involvement in Vietnam without having to
actually deal with it as his draft board would have preferred. Rush defends
violence whether it comes in the form of bombing people, torturing people,
executing people, kicking in doors, jerking people out of cars, jailing
people without charges, whatever. You name it and Old Fat Head is on board
with it. Oh-except bombing Kosovo, where attacking a brutal dictator on the
other side of the world was the most horrible thing any US president ever,
ever did. They wanted to kill Clinton over that and it wasn't even a real
war. The right couldn't shut up about how attacking a dictator on the other
side of the world was proof that liberals hated america and were abusive of
the military. Then AWOL boy wants, gets and proceeds to fuck up a genuine
war in Iraq and it's all tears of joy that Fearless Leader disarmed Saddam,
who was about to nuke us. Short of being directly, militarily defeated, is
not possible to screw up a military action more profoundly than our current
leadership has screwed up in Iraq. But Rush loves it, he loves the sacrifice
of the non-millionaires who are there almost as much the non-sacrifice of
the actual millionaires who are not, but who profited handsomely after their
brainless stooge Dubya yelled "Charge!" Considering his connections to the
administration, it's safe to say that Rush Limbaugh has probably made money
on Iraq. He loves it, failure and all, because he doesn't actually have to
get his soft, fat hands dirty with it. He can sit on his derrogating ass and
coo into the solid gold EIB microphone about Iraq, terrorism, liberals, Man
and God and Law and expound on cultural wars he knows little or nothing
about, except maybe how to incite them. Like Iraq, Rush has got nothing in
it except uninformed mouth and maybe money.


He is as wrongheaded and incompetent in his judgment about liberals as he is
about Iraq, economics, gay people, abortion or his belief that anybody who
asks a "conservative" a question they can't answer is automatically an
america-hating communist. But hey, when you're a "conservative," being
totally wrong isn't even a speed bump, which must make it damned easy to be
a conservative.

It's also funny how the only people you ever see defending George W Bush in
the US media are millionaires.

Your hysteria because George Allen would be a brilliant candidate is
noted. Try not panicking everytime your tormentor Rush Limbaugh opens
his mouth, loser.

That was really pretty pathetic. Try again, would you? This time try to
use factual rebuttal.

Sucking up to the loudest stations around.

One could use a lot of adjectives to describe George Allen, but
"brilliant" is hardly one of them.
