What Rush said is so, so vanilla and even boring compared to how Rats carry on all the time. Everyone knows it.

Exactly! Gas is heading for $5/gal and the media is yapping about subsidizing sex.

So what happened to the vicious Ed Schultz for calling Laura Ingraham a slut?

We knbow what she is and now we know her prices.
She announced to the world she intends to have a lot of sex
so she’s the one who announced what she is.
Is this a precurser to becoming a lawyer..

If Pro Flowers has been engaging in criminal acts for the last five years, why did Rush tolerate them.

I wondered if they were one of the companies. What do we do in place of them?

I’ve had to have my backups restored twice - the first time without much of a hitch and just two weeks ago, a real nightmare. My docs (Excel and Word) were in pictures - pictures were all over the place. They had to take remote access of my computer to sort out Windows Live Mail and it took 4 people to accomplish it properly.

Is there another choice out there for offsite backups?

The Dems see this as an opportunity to destroy Rush. The drumbeat will continue aided by the MSM. It will get worse.

Using the slut Fluke to try to secure un-informed women's votes, black votes, illegals' votes, etc.

..you left out the newest voter base...MUSLIMS. Don't think for a minute any and all Washington policies in regards to foreign and domestic issues aren't handled with Muslim voter in mind AND FOREIGN UNTRACEABLE CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE DNC

Of course the media is focusing on the WRONG APOLOGY - here’s what Newt said yesterday:

“‘I am astonished at the desperation of the elite media to avoid rising gas prices, to avoid a presidential apology to religious fanatics in Afghanistan, to avoid a trillion dollar deficit … and suddenly decide that Rush Limbaugh is the real national crisis this week,’ he said.”

Anybody hear that old addicted prune called dImus this morning? What a piece of human debris he is. dHe lambasted Rush for telling the truth about Fluke. How quick this hypocrite was to forget how Rush came to his side when he (Imus) called the Rutgers ladies basketball team a “bunch of nappy headed how”.

Why is “baby” such a common term of endearment among romancing adults? If boyfriends are buying teddies for their girlfriends and the latter are delighted, who are we to complain about it.

I rarely listen to Rush except snippets when I’m on the road, but WILL be listening in today just to see what happens.

I won’t be the only one tuning in for the same reasons.

I was seriously disappointed to learn that Rush apologized.

This isn’t going to be a popular opinion here, but Rush stepped in it. The argument should have remained in the arena of separation of Church & State, not the morality of an individual woman — you can’t win that one with Democrats & Independents. You CAN win the former argument with Independents, and so that would be a winner for conservatives.

One other comment: The is just a little tast of what the Obama media has in store for the Republican nominee. Buckle your seatbelts it’s going to get nasty.

This is nothing. Rush’s ratings will now be through the roof and new advertisers will jump on the bandwagon.
