Yeah, that long ago. I was working my way into college delivering pizzas during that time. Wasn’t way too long after that I was listening when he made his proclamation that there weren’t enough white people in prison for drug abuse. Of course he refused to walk that one back after he ran into legal trouble for drug abuse. I pretty much lost interest in him and his show after that.
They think the perfect time to ridicule conservatives is any time btween 12:00am and 11:59:59pm.
Out here in Los Angeles he was moved to KEIB am. I never listen to KFI anymore.
Rush may be done. But that would be because he is mortal and getting older. While I don’t listen to him much anymore, I would bet he has a decade or so to go.
ROFL!
I don’t think the truth will ever come out about Obama. It came out about Joe McCarthy, but the American people rejected the truth and will continue to do so.
The original "birther" was Obama. He claimed he was born in Kenya.
To not believe him would be racist.
I wouldn't bet against Rush at this point, but time will tell soon enough.
They say us old farts don't need anything, see through commercial BS, and advertisers don't make money off us. Most of that, actually, is true. Except that thanks to Obama the younger adult demo is broke and only buys the necessities too. That's why the economy is still limping.
Yeah, we're sure you have. No doubt Rush is saddened too.
Ditto! Rush is a dinosaur....but FR is full of dinos...Blast away.
My real gripe with most of “conservative” radio isn’t the little quirks. It’s the fact that they pull their punches because they are part of the system. They are, most of them, SLIGHTLY more liberated versions of John Boehner.
Somewhere along the line he lost some of that, the show got kinda boring, the Internet became my news source, and my schedule conflicted with his time slot.
So I rarely get to listen anymore, and even when I do, it's just not the same. I really think that he doesn't enjoy it like he used to is a big part of it.
Still news of his demise is over-exaggerated and premature.
Wow. You have problems.
Agreed. Actually, make that cranky old dinos. No blasting will come from me on that point.
Criminal conspiracy to deceive the public (fabricating quotes, fabricating the Bush "AWOL memos", fabricating a truck explosion to warn the public of the dangers of Ford trucks, fabricating photos (staged "war crime" photos, photos pilfered from porn sites run as "war crime evidence", photoshopped images on the front page, etc...), collusion with the DNC (on the old Journolist site, collusion on daily talking points, collusion on the pre-determined, pre-approved press conference questions, etc.).
The MSM is completely untrustworthy. They are the media wing of the Democrat Party and LIE daily.
Even if he has some "major other talent", his audience may not like/want it.
Bob Dylan's original base HATED it when he "went electric" or in their view "went into kiddie trash, you know, rock and roll...".
George Lucas tried to make movies other than sci-fi/fantasy but his audience wasn't as supportive.
If you start with a large base, you can lose some (or win a potentially bigger new audience) and still come out successful. I don't know that Colbert can make that transition.
But for this yayhoo to say that advertisers are not pushing politics is bullstalin. Corporate liberalism exists. "Mixed couple" cereal commercials (when much other advertising shows single mother households, absent fathers altogether) or even same sex couple households, it ISN'T just about "reaching out to young viewers".
I tuned out 6 years ago. There is nothing for me in the lamestream media. It spits on my religion, ridicules my politics, and insults my heritage AND this country.
Time was, young people wanted to grow up and become adults. Now the adults never want to grow up.
