It was silly and somewhat goofy for Rush to take a swan dive over a mere Philadelphia Eagles quarterback.

Paglia has some valid points. Maybe she should sit in as a guest host for Limbaugh's Radio Show. That would answer some of the media jive floating around.

Gotta love Paglia's intellectual HONESTY. A straight shooter from the word "GO".

I just hope RUSH just hurries and comes back. I sure do miss him.

Did it work for Chris Matthews? I recall he hosted Rush's show once...I don't remember any more times than that.

"So who is Kerry Lauerman? Did she write the article or did Camile Paglia? "

Kerry Lauerman conducted a phone interview with Camille.

This is a brief excerpt of the article dealing with Rush. The entire thing's online at Salon.

One of the most enjoyable hours I have EVER seen on TV was a Washington Journal show with Camille and Bay Buchanan! I was shocked at how much they agreed on!

Your right!

Limbaugh said that McNabb was over rated and that he was getting undeserved credit for the team's past performance.

Funny thing, until last Sunday Limbaugh was looking prescient. I still haven't heard that McNabb is an H2O walker this season.

Camile Paglia is one of the reasons I turned right. I read Vamps & Tramps and her essays on Salon and thought she made ALOT of sense. I think she's great.

That's exactly right. And no one has said squat about the world series players comment on ESPN "Rome is Burning" show. When commenting on the Boston/Yankees brawl the commentator (not the host) said (may no be verbatim) "Look at their last names: Garcia, Ramirez, Rivera. These guys overthrow their governments every three years. No wonder they can't control themselves." Haven't heard anyone called a racist for that comment.

And many's the time that Rush would quote something Camille said or even read from articles she had written.
