"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."

Well then, which idiot are you then?

Never mind, I think I know.

>> Rush had better not retreat on Monday.

Agreed. A few dimensions to this story and will probably take the week to sort out.

Easily the most rational and savvy post on the thread Jim.

It's not Carlseh's fault that he wants to protect his life's work

He's protecting his life's work by throwing his defender of the American Dream under the bus and running him over several times? He deserves to lose it all if he is not willing to understand what is at stake here.

If Rush's show gets pulled, ( I don't think that will happen) then that will just give Rush more time to RUN FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

Rush Limbaugh for President in 2012!

The slut will be a perfect spokesperson for them. “When I pull a train, it’s on a sleep train” will go over well

Wow, that's harsh, MGM.

First, I'm a Rush supporter from waaayyyy, back, and I still am, and I somehow suspect (but do not know) that Carlsen still is, as well.

Rush erred, there is no other explanation; and, we conservatives know that we are responsible for our actions.

Rush is a tough guy, he'll get through this (especially now that he's not defending the remark.)

I predict that many, if not all of Rush's major advertisers will return to the fold, once the dust settles.

If Rush had a record label behind him, calling women “sluts” would be encouraged.

>> I’d be much more sympathetic if Rush hadn’t thrown US under the bus today.

Rush did no such thing.

Limbaugh diffused an unessential component of the debate which is now unquestionably visible to every conscious citizen.

Also, understand the insult levied by someone who is willing to apologize is more meaningful than one issued by the habitual degenerate.

I have a feeling that Rush will be attending a:
BEER SUMMIT
Honorary Guests to include “DICK Van DYKE” and the Saul Alinsky Train Orchestra. Yikes - Would LOVE to be there with you Rushbo, but I have Sledge work to do with a load of boulders that day!

Didn’t even wait for Rush to “clarify”?

Oh good grief.

Nope. He betrayed everyone who supported his comments BEFORE he apologized

I agree, this can only help Rush’s credibility. If it had been me I might have been even more to the point and said sorry for calling Fluke personally a “slut” (as there is no data to support a conclusion that her own personal love life was conducted like an alley cat) — but made it plain that at the same time I still stood on my belief that Fluke is a sympathizer to sluts and a cheerleader for taxpayer funding of sluts.

Well, those people who supported the pre-apology comments were as far out on a limb as Rush. Shame on them for idolizing Rush.
