Limbaugh: "I descended to the Left's level"

Yes trying to get Rush off the air is an attempt by the left to end free speech. If you speak out against the left they try to shut you up, if that isn't an attempt to muzzle the opposition I don't know what is.

How did you feel about the Dixie Chick fiasco?

Ummm...no it is not. There is no right to have a job as a radio commentator.

Good point! I was a huge Dix Chicks fan and I dropped them like a hot potato, it was a case of them losing their fans not a case of the right boycotting their sponsors, huge difference, polar opposite even.

First thing an oppressive gov does is round up all the dissenting journalist and make them disappear, this is a way of doing just that. a more civilized way perhaps but in reality the same mindset.

The government is rounding up Limbough now? I did not know the government was doing anything at all about this. Care to document?

What a loadacrap. Man this just shows you going in complete circles trying to justify your hypocrisy. lol

The government didn't do this. :lol:

Exactly who is this "left" that is out to get you and your radio host? Got any names? Have the decency to be able to say your boy ****ed up and get over it.

Dude, you cannot be serious. Huge difference? Radio stations boycotted them. Rightwinger's quit supporting them and pushed for boycotting them just like the tree huggers push for boycotting Rush. By hitting him in the pocketbook just like the wingnuts did to the Chixie Dicks. No difference at all except one is left and one is right.

But you can't see that. And I am not surprised.

I don't even know how to respond to that it is just so crazy.

Seriously, Sawyer? There are lots of political commentators who criticize the government. Do you really think that our government wants to become an oligarchy?

I think he's gone looking up the definition of oligarchy.

Hello? Is there anybody there? :mrgreen:
 
Earlier it was the fairness doctrine I believe it was called, that was an attempt to get Rush and those like him off the air by our gov. Then there was Hillary and Obama boycott of FOX during the last election cycle in an attempt to de legitimize them. Now obama calls this activist plant and consoles her. Did he call Laura when Ed called her a slut? This is a "vast LEFT WING conspiracy" to shut up the opposition.
 
Conspiracy Theory forum, here we come. :doh

But you do bring up a very good point. Why didn't Obama console Dr. Laura?

I suppose that you are not familiar with the fact that the Fairness Doctrine existed in place from 1949 to 1987.

CONSPIRACY!!!!!!!

Of course it is. People are getting together to say they don't like Rush's trolling. Getting together is conspiring I suppose. Your "big gubamint is out to get Rush" conspiracy is rather funny... especially in light of you really stretching out to fake up some ties to support such a claim.

I dunno... perhaps because Dr. Laura throws bigger stones over public airwaves than she receives... unlike a college student? And Laura got a very very sincere public apology that she publicly accepted.

I am familiar with the history of the fairness doctrine and am familiar with how it was going to be used to get people like Rush off the air, I will elaborate if you wish, say the word.

Oh yeah. That's why.

Thanks.
 
It was Laura Ingram you dummys LOL. sheeesh


Ingraham earned a bachelor's degree at Dartmouth College, in 1985, and a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree at the University of Virginia School of Law, in 1991​


Laura Ingram is often referred to as Dr. Laura... Sorry. Didn't mean to interrupt you calling me a dummy. Please, continue.
 
AND this so called college student was a 30 year old politicle activist that already had a college degree, she went to this institution to stir up trouble.

You know, not to change the subject but....

last weekend I was spending an evening with some very educated people. Onocologists, Family Practitioners and Anestheologi...er....gasmen dammit.

It's as if their entire conversation was dominated by matters of degrees and education. I found them to be rather snobbish when they referred to other folks with college degrees as "under graduates." They spoke with a "less than" air about them. It kinda pissed me off but I held my tongue. Alone, they are really cool people. When they all get in the same room, the very tone of their voice goes into "Chaz and Biff" snob tones.

I guess what I am getting at is, someone with a college degree, or "undergraduate" as the snobs would say, appearantly are "students" until they reach the high cotton these doctor's seem to think they have attained.
