Elite, Arrogant, Condescending
The L.A. Times' editor is terrified of Fox News. How pathetic.
Roger Ailes, the big cheese at Fox, unloads both barrels on John Carroll, the big cheese at LA Times. Well done.

Here's a good laugh for you
Comedian Rush Limbaugh says he's "the intellectual engine of the conservative movement."
I doubt that Limbaugh is smart enough to be the intellectual engine of a daycare class much less of the conservative movement.

Comedian Rush Limbaugh
The Ideological Sceptic provides further validation that she can't get anything right ! Rush is not a comedian....although he sure is a whole lot funnier than most of the lefty comedians who are supposed to be funny.
Lets face it......you Lefties are just green with envy over the little "fuzzball's" success.19 years of 5 days/week....3 hours/day and usually no guests.25-35 million listeners/week....ditto heads.......EXPOSING the lies/hypocracy/lunacy of the LEFT. Although no William F Buckley.....RUSH LIMBAUGH is by all measurements a GIANT amongst minnows. Here's to 8 more years of the GREAT ONE !!!!

Like Howard Stern he is popular and he has gotten rich off the masses who listen to him
Envious? I can't speak for others, but I'm not envious. However, I wish that people were smart enough and had better taste than to listen to their sort garbage.
Conservatism is an honest and respectable political point of view. It deserves a better representative, on the radio, than Rush Limbaugh--who remains a popular, stupid, and dishonest jack-ass.
BTW, I once heard him on the air refer to his callers in that manner. He chooses his callers not on the basis of the substance of their call but whether they will make him look good -- he wants stupid jack-asses to call in so he won't look so much like one.
He needn't bother.

Limbaugh is especially proud of his two-story library, which is a scaled-down version of the library at the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina. Cherubs dance on the ceiling, leatherbound collections line the bookshelves....
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/06/magazine/06Limbaugh-t.html
Books as decoration. Style--without no substance.
The books at Biltmore were actually for reading and not mere decoration.
I understand he once read a book -- the one Bush gave him - "My Pet Goat".

ADVICE TO IDEOLOGICAL SCEPTIC: LEARN IT; LIVE IT; LOVE IT as you're getting 8 more years of the GREAT ONE !
BTW, most Limbaugh fans are not Stern fans....2 separate classes....infact I'd say the Stern fans match up more closely with you " stupid, and dishonest jack-ass liberals. Anytime you stupid jack-ass liberals want a more intimate and personal discussion with me...please PM me time and location!!

What branch of knowledge, craft, or art does Limbaugh excel at?
“Propaganda…must always be essentially simple and repetitious. In the long run, only he will achieve basic results in influencing public opinion who is able to reduce problems to the simplest terms and who has the courage to keep forever repeating them in this simplified form despite the objections of the intellectuals.”
Joseph Goebbels.
Rush Limbaugh is brilliant at leading the herd.

I wouldn't worry about Rush Limbaugh: In 20 years on the air he only has 20 million listeners. That means there are 300,000,000 U.S. citizens who don't listen to him.
Don't get all worked up.
These are not the droids you are looking for.

There you go with that Jedi Mind trick business:

For the record......some have estimated Rush's radio audience at 30-35 million per week counting reruns at various stations thru out the fruited plain.
Plus 500K + subscribers to his news letter. A formidable messenger with no...none....bupkiss.....counterparts on the left. Not the the left hasn't tried feverously over the past 20 years to come up with one. Just can't find an individual with enough intellect and talent I suppose !!!!
