    I thought he was always a joke. But recently, he has become even funnier.

    Limbaugh, although he has done much to give voice to basic, knee jerk, conservatism, is certainly not a thinking mans conservative. Much as Michael Moore or Barbara Streisand, and their ilk being the voice of the left, gives conservatives ammunition to attack the left-wing and liberal ideology as a whole, so does Limbaugh arm those whose political persuasion is considered "progressive".

    Even as a staunch conservative, I listen to his show as I am flipping channels, and find numerous holes, half-truths and leaps of logic.

    Dude is a rich drug-addict, though.

    Irony is a way to explain why someone is laughing at what supposed to be serious points.

    Oh Gee's a Closet ditto-head. "mega-dittos", eh?


    You know Rush could care less about what people think, the fact that he gets a reaction for this "attack" on Clinton lends credence to the fact that his audience spans the board of both political parties and he's "alive and well" (I understand that "well" is debatable). He's looking for, and gets, a large audience and that's why he's paid the big bucks.

    Way to unwittingly pimp the Rush Limbaugh Show Oh Gee, you've been duped!

    You want irony! In Mass. you now have to have health insurance, just like
    car insurance. In New Jersey it will shortly be law that you can't smoke in any
    building or within 25 feet of an entrance to a building. But the powers to be
    want to protect our borders by opening them up and granting amnesty to all
    those who have entered illegally. Oh, and it is all Bush's fault because he
    told Libby to do it, well not really, but the prosecutor says he said it, but
    Bush didn't. But if the prosecutor said he did, then he must have because
    Libby said that he did, when he didn't. Makes sense doesn't it. No and it
    doesn't to me either. And OG, not butchering the language, just trying to
    point out the stupidity of our nation now days. And what our most wonderful
    media prints on a daily basis. And I would love to see that deed you
    forefathers have/had/whatever. They could only sell to Mexican or Negroes? Or
    couldn't sell to either group. Never heard of such animal, what state was it in?

    And About Rush, guess there must be 20 million silly people in the
    good old USA. Most of what he has is a good research department. He
    kinda reads what other people report and then comments on it. He
    has never broken a story on anything that I am aware of or claimed to
    have inside information. Quite the contrary. Also has some auditing
    company that monitors his show and supposedly they say he is
    accurate over 98 percent of the time. Anyhow, I like listening to his
    program. He is very entertaining. And by the way, wonder why they
    still haven't prosecuted him for dope? Could it be......nah, never mind.

    I also listen to Laura Ingraham, Michael Savage, and Bill Bennett when I'm driving. What's your point?

    You shouldn't be listening to Rush or his ilk you hippie! You don't know nor will you ever understand his message.

    Stick to wimpy radio you can understand like Stuart Smalley and that lesbian Garafolo.

    If you truely want to understand irony, all you have to do is go through the list of marketing-tested names this supposed no-poll-watching administration picks for its sick policies...

    No Child Left Behind (which is precisely what it will do to thousands of bilingual kids)
    The Patriot Act (aren't you Patriotic? let us protect you)
    The Clear Skies Act (who would vote against clear skies? commie liberals, that who!)
    The Job Creation and Workers Assistance Act of 2002 (government subsidy for big business)
    Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 and Jobs and the Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 (tax cuts for the rich)

    Yup. We voted for good governance, we got a marketing campaign instead.
