I only posted once, can not figure out what happened.
Surely Reid promised to match the bid. Why else would one take credit for the sliming of RUSH? Maybe if we all congratulate Ried on his obvious scheme to raise money for a worthwhile charity he will make a quick payment to th fund. (sarcasm off)

Phony news from phony reporters. How sad it is that the Fourth Estate has become the Fifth Column.

Ping to Halperin memo.

And the ABC blogger is putting a bit to much feshly groudn nutmeg in their coffee, Reid and his cohort were trying their levle best to make Rush apologize for something that he never said in the context they were trying to put on it.

Harry “this war is lost” Reid is a disgrace as the Senate Majority El Presidente’, I’ve never seen so much incompetence mixed with petty tyranny mixed in one tight little bundle..

"“Democrats are going to make a ton of money for charity?”

Half-truths lose credibility for conservatives just as for liberals:

What ABC said IN FULL was "Democrats are going to make a ton of money for charity with their vitriolic attack."

May I refer to you Websters, which does not define "Vitriolic" as a term of praise.
It should be clear from reading the WHOLE story that ABC was not actually praising the Dims.

“Phony News from phony reporters”

Here is a story that ABC could check on:

Liberals have the worst record of giving to charity. Remember the minimal contributions of Gore and Kerry ? One year Kerry gave squat to charity - zilch- nada! How about Hillary deducting Bill’s underwear? How about Gore not even fixing his tenant’s bathroom?
They just love taking and spending our money. Liberals have no compassion. All they want is power and keeping the poor down.

Why doesn’t some phony reporter tally the total given to charity in the past year by the 41 dem senators (especially Reid) who signed that letter. Or the amount given to charity by phoney reporters? That would make a great story.

I bet it wouldn’t even come close to the 4 million Rush raised for our soldiers and police officers.

check out the latest from the New York Times...not only do they credit the Dems...they don’t mention the fact that Rush matched the contribution. They don’t mention the fact that Rush stated the whole thing...and they go on to imply that the buyer won’t be able to get a tax deduction...It’s unbelievable....it made no sense.

I honestly believe Rush was less than brilliant on this and failed to follow through.

He needed to call Reid the "President of the Jesse MacBeth Fan Club" and force attention back to the original statement, in which Phoney soldier Jesse MacBeth's lies about our military were criticized by Rush AND REID AND 40 LEMMINGS JUMPED UP AND DEFENDED MACBETH (...and Scott Thomas Beauchamp and Lansdale, etc, etc,....)

Instead he focused on how the Senate is picking on Rush himself.

The honorable Harry Reid has promised to match the bid just like RUSH. A true patriot.

How? Is he going to sell more land?

"But without qualification Mark May, the owner of the network that has Rush Limbaugh...

First, the gentleman's last name is Mays.

Second, Mr. Mays does not own the network. The stockholders of Clear Channel Communications own the network.

ABC, what a lame loser!

I have. His name is Tom Daschle. Liberal Democrats breed this kind. And like Tom Daschle, this Reid dweeb needs to be flicked out of congress like a dry booger.

Good point...It must go back to the mantra by the Dems that they are for the ‘poor’...That idea developed mainly during FDR’s days and still mouthed ad nauseum by today’s not so poor Democrats.

Which is all the more ironic because it underscores yhe fact that many of these Democrats are very wealthy now, and they want to keep the ‘poor’ in poverty in order to keep their votes, and they want to tax the Upper and Middle income classes into near poverty level by taxing them to death...They certainly are true to their political philosophy based on lies, lack of critical analysis of facts, and outright corruption..in a word: hypocrites.

Tagline quote is from A. Hitler

Board have the hiccups?

Harry Reid will always be a jack@$$, it’s too late for him to take back all the bile he spouted against Rush or belatedly donate dollars to the cause.
