” I attributed racially insensitive quotes to Limbaugh”

As I said months ago ... First they came after Dr. Savage and Rush was silent. Next they will go after Rush.

I am hoping it backfired this time..and maybe rush was biding his time to exploit their weakness for using the race card.

“I never found a denial of these quotes by Limbaugh,”

I found that both interesting and telling. It’s not the first time I’ve seen race baiters use that line about limbaugh.

Savage, a.k.a. Michael Weiner, is small fry. I can’t stand his whining and bloated self importance.
When Rush was under investigation good ole’ Savage piled on.
Weiner bashes all fellow conservative talkers.

Rush is.

Good point. At least Whitlock apologized, that’s more than any of the others have done, so far.

IMO, Savage is a jerk. Rush's problem started when he didn't defend himself, not when he didn't defend Savage. I've often heard Rush talk about there being two schools of thought about reacting to attacks -- one being that you do nothing, the other that you face the attacks head on.

I've thought for a long time that the days of doing nothing (the idea being that the lies will die a quick death if you don't respond to them) have long been over. Reagan was good at ignoring attacks, and he was president at a time when ignoring them worked. Plus he had the bully pulpit.

I think Rush's deal with the NFL was destroyed in part because he did nothing when these lies first appeared. So they were just out there, waiting to come back to life at the appropriate time. And now all these reporters can say in their own defense, "But Rush never denied saying those things."

Facepalm. Weiner exists under the umbrella of protection Rush provides. He takes the arrows and Weiner attacks him for it.
