Well developed ??? His apology indicates that his ‘moral compass’ has went off in the wrong direction. Further defending him is like claiming the guy who pleaded guilty really didnt mean it.
Speaking of ‘moral compass’ and ‘extorted under duress’ Rush is the same guy who lectures his audience on how Republicans members of congress should hold on during a shutdown standoff EVEN IF IT MEANS LOSING THEIR NEXT election and seat. He sounds pretty brave behind that mike saying what others should give up in a battle. But he loses a few of HIS sponsors to his program and he's almost imediately making a public apology. He does NOT practice what he preaches.
Rush lives in a glass house and shouldn't throw those types of stones and he admitted it when he apologized.
Agree.
One would think that, with the passage of time, Rush will recover financially and career-wise. Although he has been the target of the Left for many years, he did recover from the McNabb affair.
On the subject of double standards I brought up in this thread, I should have mentioned that the Left deserves scorn for ignoring or encouraging similar remarks from Letterman, Maher, Ed Schultz, etc. and suddenly becoming indignant at Rush's remarks. But again, when posters on FR say Rush is wrong to apologize, but (rightly) state that left wing swine like Maher are despicable for what they say about Palin, we should remember Deuteronomy 25:
Do not have two differing measures in your house—one large, one small. Do not have two differing weights in your bag—one heavy, one light. You must have accurate and honest weights and measures, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
“Well developed ??? His apology indicates that his ‘moral compass’ has went off in the wrong direction.”
A moral compass does not guarantee moral perfection.
That said, you insist on placing the most tendentious interpretation on his actions, with no better support than I have for my interpretation.
“Further defending him is like claiming the guy who pleaded guilty really didnt mean it.”
That does happen, you know.
“Rush is the same guy who lectures his audience on how Republicans members of congress should hold on during a shutdown standoff EVEN IF IT MEANS LOSING THEIR NEXT election and seat.”
I don’t believe that. I didn’t hear it, and it is contrary to the things I have heard.
“He does NOT practice what he preaches.”
Yeah, yeah, you don’t like Limbaugh. I get it.
“Rush lives in a glass house and shouldn’t throw those types of stones and he admitted it when he apologized.”
Nonsense.
