I’m thinking that Rush hopes that Reid, ABC, and various public media/political agendas all take a swipe at him....at least monthly. And he can collect $2 million a month for charity...which would be a nice touch. I’m thinking he will try harder to bait folks now...and make Reid and the guys miserable as they watch the Ebay angle play out.

hairy knows how stupid his base is. That is sad. They will buy anything. hairy is spinning this to his base as something that he was a part of. Rush is just doing what he can to make it right (according to hairy). The hairy base is dumber than a bag of hammers, and unfortunatly he knows it.

It is unfortunate that people are that stupid and have BDS at such a level that all sense it lost.

For ABC’s obvious and shameless part in carrying water for the distortions and lies of Harry Reid and his 40 cohorts, it’s only fair that ABC match Rush’s and Betty’s $4,200,200.00 combined charitable donation to the Marine Corps — Law Enforcement Foundation, for each of the 41 shameless senators they seek to protect.

Let’s see... That comes to

$172,208,200.00

Now, Pay Up ABC, and Fix Your Story!!!

The left is skilled at spinning. It took them only a few hours to broadcast that Kerry’s putdown of the troops was a “botched joke”.

Maybe if we all congratulate Ried on his obvious scheme to raise money for a worthwhile charity

When you all do e-mail Ol' Dingy Harry, make sure to remind him of his use of the pronoun "WE" he so excessively used in his statement and how you (we) assume that implies he has or will match the winning bid as he had been challenged by Rush Limbaugh to do.

Copy all the MSM news rooms as well as the NYT and WaPo.

ABC’s ‘Potemkin Village’ version of a story they refused to cover.

They’re nothing but the media branch of the Democratic Party. The Democrats should pay for their own propaganda network, instead of getting a free one provided for them.

“For their part, Democrats sent a letter calling for Rush Limbaugh to be reprimanded for calling soldiers who opposed the war “phony soldiers.””
You can tell the scumbags in the ratmedia are lying when you see their lips move. Even after all this time these morons STILL keep lying about this incident.

I think Mitt Romney’s group bought clear channel.

From the "special meeting" press release:

Clear Channel Communications, Inc. (NYSE:CCU), a global leader in the radio broadcasting and out-of-home advertising industries, is today holding its special meeting of shareholders to vote on the adoption of a merger agreement providing for the acquisition of the Company by CC Media Holdings, Inc., a corporation formed by private equity funds sponsored by Bain Capital Partners, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. Under the terms of the merger agreement, shareholders were able to elect to receive merger consideration for their shares in the form of $39.20 in cash or shares of stock in Holdings.
So there will apparently continue to be stockholders.

FWIW, in researching this I couldn't find any current info that Romney is still associated with Bain. Every source I found said that he was until he became CEO of the 2002 Olympics.

If you have contrary info, I'd appreciate a link.

First, the gentleman's last name is Mays.

The missing "S" is a clear indication the MSM did nothing investigative in nature. They simply took Harry Reid's comments and applied the marketing template.

It is actually a very important fact that outs Main Stream and Media as the marketing arm of the DNC. It really is that simple.
