Faux controversy. Exactly, you hit the nail on the head for me. This woman was set up and supported to make just the sort of a situation we are seeing. She’s an activist and an anti Catholic activist at that. The whole mess continues to be a freedom from religion crusade led by our Marxist in chief.
I personally wouldn’t have opted for the “slut” insult because I have a losing preference for a polite society(what a joke in today’s culture). But that is neither here nor there. Once you have met the challenge and exposed the hypocrisy Is not the time to retreat and pee your pants. Rush’s retreat could become a rout.
As I think more about this, maybe Rush had no choice. Either his career is over, or he caves.
It’s not like there are independent radio stations and alternate syndication opportunities any longer.
If he gets dumped, he can’t get around not owning the network. Look what happened to Oprah and Beck. They are disappearing before our eyes.
Still, 20 million listeners a week is huge. But these corporate interests are not rational.
These are the same people that produce “R” rated movies by the truckload knowing that the rating is an automatic money disadvantage. The same people that produce christian bashing, military bashing, family bashing content; knowing it will fail financially.
For Monday.
You seem to forget exactly who it is that retracted his statement.
Is you can’t see the magnitude of this betrayal, you’re not smart enough to be a conservative.
Yep.
Rush had better not retreat on Monday.
He needs to POUND this home. heh
If you believe a loser leach with sawed off heels and a mattress back is gonna cause Rush’s demise,
you have no idea how business/advertising works.
Rush advertisers are not trying to reach a demographic of liberal whores... or anyone else in the democratic party.
In a past life as a “financial consultant” I bought time on radio stations during Rush. I wanted exposure to sensible conservatives...preferably with money to invest. It worked just peachy for me. Alternative advertisers will be lined up for airtime. But if Rush doesn’t believe in the product, he won’t promote it. His listeners know this hence his words mean something.
I dare say there are only a minority of FReepers that currently understand just how big that bus is... but it will be sinking in rather quickly.
If Rush won’t trust us to stand and fight for him, why should the Republicans?
The beds can be dialed so it is exactly the right firmness for both partners. Sandra loves this feature and it really helps her meet her monthly quota.
At least I’m not the idiot that accuses those who advocate “stand and fight” of being a “fair weather friend” when Rush caves to his enemies.
The difference between the left and conservatives is this -— THEY KNOW HOW TO USE MUSCLE AND WIN.
And they are UNIFIED when it comes to attacking conservative causes.
On the other hand — notice how DIVIDED the Roman Catholics — whose moral teachings are being threatened -— are.
They can’t even muster a unified CLERGY PLUS LAIETY VOICE to stop Obama and the HHS’s assault.
One woman’s politically correct victimhood intimidates the leading Conservative Voice in the media, while conservatives cannot intimidate a leftist president to cause him to change his policy.
Interesting background and entertainingly written. Good post.
Rush has a billion dollar property when you look at national and local advertisement sales, tie ins and potential to draw millions of additional subscribers to satellite And he can say anything he wants to say.
Remember when Rush used to do caller abortions?
Well, well........ perhaps Rush did choose the word $!ut a little too quickly. I totally agreed with him / but he IS a gentleman and I do think that choice of words was not wise.
Let’s remember how well Snapple did when THEY advertised on Rush’s program. Don’t remember why, but the dumped him as well. Tee Hee....... their stock tanked along with their sales. Now Rush has Two if By Tea. YUMMY - best ever. Profits there go to a great cause. Advertisers can #%)#**~!
Well said, FrankR. Thank you for that post.
