Limbaugh’s not going anywhere. He announced today that he’s signing new advertisers, and said that two of those who earlier pulled out of his show are “begging to come back.”

Good news ping!

I copied my own post from a “Was Breitbart Murdered?” thread, forgive this indulgence.

The Obama regime already crossed the mass-murder Rubicon with Operation Fast And Furious.

Covertly assasinating solitary enemies like AB would not require any shift in philosophy.

“Gangster Government, And Sakharov’s Immunity”

http://www.enemiesforeignanddomestic.com/efadGG.htm

Which brings me at last to Sakharov’s Immunity. Andrei Sakharov was a Soviet physicist and a primary inventor of the H-bomb. When he went off the Communist reservation in 1967 and became a dissident, the regime made his life miserable but they did not kill him, which was certainly in their power to do. His death under such circumstances would have proved the very points he was making about the illegitimate Soviet regime. They moved him far into Siberia to keep him isolated from intrepid foreign visitors, but they did not sprinkle radioactive Polonium dust on his salad. The introduction of that deadly form of Russian salad dressing was left for a later strongman, Vladimir Putin, formerly of the KGB.

And there are many other means of assassination. The Soviet KGB could not assassinate Sakharov’s reputation; it was above reproach. But in the modern era, with the elite liberal media serving as the Obama regime’s willing propaganda organ (birth control, anyone?) this is easier to arrange than ever. Popular media icons can be and have been driven off the airwaves by the full-court press of the Media Matters smear machine, in coordination with Valerie Jarrett at the White House War Room. And does anyone believe that the vicious smear campaign against black conservative Republican candidate Herman Caine was not orchestrated in the War Room of Gangster Government, Inc?

Or the regime can commit an “Economic Waco,” the way it has recently done to the Rick and Terri Reese family of Deming, NM. Read about this case, and ponder this federal engine of total destruction being turned against your family. At the same time the secret federal “law enforcement program” [sic] of walking thousands of guns directly to Mexican cartel killers was official ATF policy, and nobody has even been charged with a crime.

Obviously, taking a defiant public stand against Gangster Government Inc. and its complicit elite media minions comes with some risk. They can drop a large building on you if they want to, just as they did to the Reese family in New Mexico, and grind you under their boot heels.

So why do I stand and point my accusing finger at Leviathan? Perhaps those dissidents with a sufficiently high profile will earn some measure of Sakharov’s Immunity, at least for a while. Certainly keeping a low profile is no guarantee of protection from being railroaded and destroyed, as the gut-wrenching case of Rick and Terri Reese clearly demonstrates. Needless to say, the elite liberal media has no interest in covering their physical and economic crucifixion by the federal government. Please read about their case; it will make you sick to your stomach that this kind of official abuse can happen in the United States of America.

So if maintaining a low profile does not promise safety from the organs of state destruction, perhaps keeping a high profile will. I am pinning a lot on this Sakharov’s Immunity idea. But if it is my fate to serve as one of the canaries in the coalmine of freedom, so be it. I am in good company, standing with many genuine heroes. You already know many of them, but it is not for me to name them here.

[March 2 addendum: One of them, Andrew Breitbart, died yesterday of “natural causes,” at the unnaturally young age of 43, while alone on a walk near his home.]

[Mrch 8: The same day Rush received a fake bomb package, containing an assassination threat, depending on who you read.]

Nothing new there. I'm sure that Rush gets death threats evry day. What is new is that with the death of Andrew Breitbart someone may, I say MAY be doing something concrete about them.

At least Rush didn’t call a bunch of women “nuts and sluts”...

You had me up to this point. Herman Cain was the author of his own destruction.

Yes he did get death threats and I wonder what was in the package that was found on his property last weekend?

Yes, thank you for this info He announced today that he’s signing new advertisers, and said that two of those who earlier pulled out of his show are “begging to come back.”

It's exactly what some poster said the other day would happen!

Rush down played it as something harmless, but I wonder. If it was a bomb or something equally lethal, he'd probably be asked by the police to keep it quiet while they investigated. Notice Rush said it was harmless but refused to say what it actually was?

I don't know...maybe I'm being paranoid but I don't believe that Brietbart died of 'natural' causes and I also don't believe in coincidences...like Rush getting a mysterious package the very next day.

I heard some snippets and shards of info... the only items of note that bob to the surface: The “wire” was a simple power-brick powering an electronic picture frame - totally inconsequential. The picture frame had a picture (in its memory? on paper? I don’t know) with some reference to John Wilkes Booth - consequential, very consequential.

Look, dems have many more affairs than Caine ever did, and they are covered up by the MSM. Look at Teddy Kennedy, etc.

I’m not saying Caine was immaculate, where did you get that in my piece? I’m saying the coordinated bomb-dropping on Caine, day after day, came out of the White House War Room.

Somehow I missed the Ricki and Terry Reese incident.

Can anyone provide a link to an article about them?

We have to remember Obama’s races in Illinois were he had his opposition eliminated from the ballot and where he released Ryan’s divorce info. His fingerprints are all over this.

More from the fever-swamps of the unhinged / deranged Left:

Ding dong: Andrew Breitbart is DEAD at 43!

Here's one of the few comments at the above site that I could find that doesn’t have the “F” word in it:

Dr Jones says:

"Dear God™, Please kill Rush Limbaugh next. Thanks, Everyone."

How was Herman Cain the author of his own destruction?

Sure, he wimped out under fire; but do you have information the rest of us don’t?

It was all innocent, Rush saw some wires through his machine that scans unopened packages. Man apologized who sent it to him for all the problems. I forget exactly what was in the package. He did have his return address on the package.

Liberals hate freedom of speech.I hope he has security.Look at what happened to Brietbart.

Liberals hate freedom of speech. What is it about Rush's, Brietbart’s , Palin’s message that they hate, is it that they are for limited government, freedom, freedom of speech? what is so bad about that and why do liberals hate that so much? I ask liberals that.

The suspicious package found outside the Palm Beach home of conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh on Thursday was just a “business opportunity,” according to Town of Palm Beach Police.

Limbaugh has a device that can scan packages and when there appeared to be wires inside he called police. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office bomb squad was called out to the compound on the 1400 block of North Ocean Blvd., officials said.

When bomb squad technicians opened the 18-inch-square package they found an electronic plaque commemorating the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth, police said.

It was sent from a listener in Pennsylvania who intended it as an ice-breaker to pitch a business venture. Detectives interviewed him and determined there was no threat, officials said.

The sender apologized for the confusion. Limbaugh had no comment, police said.

(I don’t discount that the liberal MSM is downplaying this event, very willing to believe in the innocence of a plaque containing wires and a commemoration John Wilkes Booth.)
