Open Letter to Conservative Talk Radio Hosts (FR Exclusive)
1-29-2012 | Dianna C. Cotter

Posted on 01/29/2012 1:58:53 PM PST by Danae

Dear Conservative Talk Radio (and TV) Hosts:

SHAME ON YOU!!

We, your loyal listeners and watchers have been carrying water for all'yall for years now. We have made you rich, powerful, and put you where you are at, namely multimillionaires.

YOU HAVE LET US DOWN.

So much so we now have a man in the office of president that you FEAR to tell the truth about.

Those of us who have dedicated our unpaid time, dozens if not hundreds of hours, our personal reputations and personal information, have been patiently waiting for you to notice us and what we have accomplished.

WE KNOW YOU ARE READING WHAT WE HAVE FOUND.

WE KNOW YOU KNOW.

Why are you NOT talking about it? It is only a controversy GREATER than Watergate for heaven's sake! It is constitutional crisis which left untreated WILL result in the complete destruction of the document which created this Nation - because YOU are staying silent!

Where is your courage? We used to trust you to take up the issues which concerned US, but you have let us down on this. Completely let us down.

The only thing we out here in reality land can think of, is that you have been threatened. Either directly, or through your broadcasting bosses.

We can't think of any other potential reason, because we have researched it all so thoroughly, and proven that Barack Hussein Obama is NOT constitutionally qualified to hold the Office of President. Proven it over and over, and thoroughly researched the laws which support our claims! We have done all your work FOR you, and still you remain silent.

Inexplicably, you are protecting an usurper!!!! A man who has killed hundreds across the world with the powers he usurped! The wrongness of this is hard to put into words profound enough to accurately portray the horror of this realization.

FOR SHAME!!!!

What do you fear? Losing your jobs? Because we have your backs you know. We won't let that happen. Is it a physical threat against your families? We got your backs there as well, if you go public for darned sure no such threat could be carried out, and those who threatened you will be exposed and punished. Is it that you do not understand the evidence? Minor V. Happersett 1874 is NOT that hard to understand, it isn't even that long as SCOTUS cases go... Go read it. Is it because some lawyer working for your bosses have told you that it is a nothing issue??? Maybe you should stop and think about those lawyers motivations, maybe they have been threatened too.

Is it because you fear race riots as Obama supporters have threatened, or being painted as begin responsible for them?

Well, I am here to say, this isn't about race. Bobby Jindal is Indian by heritage, Marco Rubio is Cuban.... neither man is eligible for the same reason Obama is. Yet, because of Obama, certain establishment powers that be trial balloon their names for POTUS or Veep on a weekly if not daily basis!

Obviously, it isn't about race, or about party politics.

It is about the CONSTITUTION you silly people. Obama has made the constitution irrelevant with his presence in the White House. How can a man take an oath of office to something which says he cannot take that oath? Short answer is he cannot. What does that mean in a larger and simpler level? Obama is NOT bound by the Constitution - hence Obama Care, Tzars, Unconstitutional EPA powers, and laws signed giving away Habius Corpus and rights guaranteed to us and to the states. Do you honestly think that the FCC is really off your backs considering all the other unconstitutional baloney going on? Really? Really?! Or is the FCC the source of the threats?

We aren't asking you to come out publicly on OUR side. We are asking that you FAIRLY report on what is the single most important issue to occur in the last 200 years short of the Civil War. Report both sides! PLEASE!!! Just start reporting on it darn it! If we are wrong, prove it. If we are right, then DEAL with it as honest brokers of information!

We must fight for the constitution, and if you are truly conservatives, truly Americans who value this Nation and what created it - the Constitution... if you value your OWN freedoms guaranteed you by that very document as members of the press, then you MUST report on what appears to be a violent attack on the Constitution. That attack is embodied by Barack Obama.

REPORT ON IT. Its time to get off the fence. We know you are on it, we know you are paying attention. We know you are deliberately keeping mum on the subject.

We demand you finally find the courage of your convictions, and pay back some of the support we have given you over the years which have made you rich beyond belief, and powerful enough to change the disastrous path we have all been forced down.

Put up or shut up Conservative Talk Radio and TV hosts. Your hour of reckoning is at hand. We are listening and waiting, and we won't be waiting or listening much longer.

Either you are our voice or you have betrayed us.

Which is it?

That is what I said, you don’t like Newt, especially since Romney became your favorite in 2008 as the race got down to three.

LOL!! You're really reaching now... by your logic, I guess I'm a McCain supporter for life.. since, he was my "favorite" over Obama..

Ewww... I think I just threw up a little just typing that.

It was Rush’s transcript, not analysis.

The transcript is of Rush gutting Newt with what Rush knew was a lie, and man was he in our face and arrogant that day, while doing it.

I was pointing out that in a race of three, you liked the radically left wing Romney in 2008.

Today, you are going after Newt, when he is the only opposition to Romney.

I don’t think that your are passionate about Romney this time, but I do think that you are at the very least, indifferent to him beating Gingrich.

ok... right. Well, that is YOUR opinion. I don’t agree.

I don’t see that as Rush “gutting Newt”... I see it as Rush talking about the news of the day, and expressing SOME doubts about it.

But, all in all... that IS what Newt was saying in that speech. Maybe, it’s Newt you should be upset with??

Bed-time for me... carry on with your Rush-bashing.

Rush was forced to admit it was a pile of Bull the next day, a fact that he already knew, but he used it to kill Newt anyway.

You haven’t cleared up whether 1989 was when you became a Rush listener, you said it was, and then denied it later, claiming to have started before he went national, before he left Sacramento.

You are ASSUMING that Rush knew it was "Bull"... and, used it anyway. You can believe that if you want... I don't agree.

Cleared up? I didn't realize this was such a controversy.

Here are my "Rush Credentials":-)

I first started listening to Rush sometime in August of 1988 (not '89) in Houston.. on 700 KSEV radio.

The very first thing I heard when I tuned in was: Andy Williams singing 'Born Free'... the theme for Animal Rights updates. I thought it was hilarious, and was immediately hooked.

I've never stopped listening.

I was a charter subscriber for the newsletter, own first printings of both books, and have been a subscriber or Rush 24 since the first day it was offered.

When I lived in Louisiana, I used to join friends in a RUSH ROOM at a local BBQ spot. While we ate, the restaraunt owner played Rush loudly on the radio. Since I WORK during the day... I generally only get to hear the first hour. Sometimes, when news is particularly interesting, I'll catch the other hours later, on the internet.

I DO travel quite a bit... and, when I'm on the road, I ALWAYS listen to whole show in the evenings. Especially when I'm overseas...

I know Rush. I GET Rush... When people ask me if I "like Rush Limbaugh"... I tell them : "No, I AM Rush Limbaugh.. only better looking and without the money". :-)

I don't ALWAYS agree with Rush...but, it's a rare day when I don't. And, it's usually more of a tactical thing, rather than substance.

I think Rush likes Newt Gingrich.... quite a lot. But, he's still going to speak about whatever the "news of the day is"... whether it's good, or bad for Newt.

I expect to be flamed too, but I do find it surprising that Mark Levin has not taken this on, if only to explain in detail why Obama is eligible (if that's what he believes). To my knowledge, he has not. Maybe I missed it. But anytime I have heard it brought up on his show he just wants to change the subject, quickly.

These hosts know their listeners are not stupid. But again I don't remember much mention of this issue at all, apart from on Michael Savage's show.

If I am wrong I thank people for corrections in advance.

I've been listening to him, almost daily, since 1989.

You created the confusion about when you started listening to Rush. Rush knew that Speaker Newt was not anti-Reagan, all conservatives know that, and so should anyone else who lived during the 1980s and 1990s.

See post 100, when he mocked his audience, knowing that they were raving at his disgusting hit on Newt.

Hannity never shuts up about Rev Wright. I don't think a day goes by where he doesn't somehow work it into the conversation. And Levin and Rush both discuss the subject, giving credit to Hannity for his research.

When Levin has brought it up, he just says he's eligible, he's president, it's time to vote him out.

Birthers, and the birther arguments are not welcome on his show.

Well... I hope that's all cleared up. What I was saying was.... YOU couldn't have been listening longer unless YOU lived in Sacramento. I've been listening for as long as Rush has been heard, nationally. My bad for getting the year confused... I was in the middle of a plant startup then... working 320 hours a month for several months in a row. It's all kind of a blur.

See post 100, when he mocked his audience

I've see post 100 several times now... I HEARD Rush saying it when he did. I've even gone back and listened to again. I just don't see it as anything other than "Normal" Rush style..

Rush Limbaugh right now is making the case that it’s ok to lie about your opponent by bring in Jefferson and Adams.

Stating that we are whiner for complaining about it.

JUST COME OUT AND ENDORSE ROMNEY RUSTY.

COWARD !

See post 112, hours before voting starts in the primary that could stop Romney, and it is clear that Newt will not be getting any momentum from Rush.

What a bizarre, useless, irrelevant, first hour for the day before such a monumental conservative election, but it keeps him from helping Newt.

Newt HAS BEEN whining about it... for the past two days. And, it's NOT HELPING him.

Rush is going Newt a favor by trying to re-direct him toward speaking PASSIONATELY about conservatism... not whining about lying politicians. it's not attractive

You guys are WAYYY to sensitive....

Now Rush is linking Romney to the re-districting effort to write out Allen West.

Is that YOUR idea of a way to endorse Willard?

Some moron a few days ago was claiming that Rush, Sean, and Mark Levin were all supporting Romney because of Bain Capital owning a (minority) share of Clear Channel. Rush and Mark have been extremely hard on Romney. These people claiming a Bain/Clear Channel conspiracy are delusional.

Yes, Rush cultist, Rush’s using Jefferson and Adams to justify Romney’s and the GOP-Es attacks on Gingrich is just Rush playing chess...lol.

Coming out and endorsing Myths and the E’s coordinated attacks IS and endorsement of Romney.

They’ve eliminated Palin and Cain and wow they are attempting to take out Newt for the second time.

Tools will be tools. Rush is a tool.
