Really, why does anyone take this goober seriously? I remember back in the day when he was a total laughing stock, and now Fox seems to think he’s actually worth airtime?

Yeah, and Gerardo (Thank you Earl Hickey because he will now always be Gerardo for you) has gotten a lot of laughs at the expense of Al Capone.

Who gives a rats ass what Jerry Rivers has to say. He’s as brilliant a political thinker as he was skillful as a boxer. He has as much to offer as Al Capone’s vault did. A true ass clown.

I don’t care for Jerry Rivers, and turn the set off or change channels as soon as I see his crappy looking mustachio.

He’s just jealous because Rush has made a lot more money than he has.

Rivera: "Even Rush would admit that he's a racial provocateur,

Whorealdo, you ignorant, misguided, newshole. Rush would admit that he's a POLITICAL provocateur.

That is to say, he knows how to tweak Liberals.

Such as you, fer instance.

“Really, why does anyone take this goober seriously?”

It’s important because he is listened to, and he’s repeating the current MSM chant. They are out to demonize Rush, so that there can be OUTRAGE at a certain time, with a push to get him off the air. If they can plant the seeds of outrage, when this time comes the screaming will drown out (take media bandwidth) from Rush’s supporters.

Old Jerry Rivers up to his old tricks. This leftist goober really sucks.

Anyone else recall some story about Jerry and Bette Midler in the Mojave Desert?

The exact details escape me at the moment but it may be why so many folks think the very leftist Midler also sucks.

Geraldo was way cool in “Al Capone’s Vault”, especially when running into a totally empty room with a tommy gun. His career has been all down hill from there. Bless Fox News for giving the sad tosser a gig.

Now I know why The White House doesn't consider FOX News a legitimate news organization.

But that's not really fair, Rahm. Nobody watches Whorealdo.

“I remember back in the day when he was a total laughing stock, and now Fox seems to think he’s actually worth airtime?”

Well, Fox needs tokens just like any other TV outlet. Though I’m not entirely convinced that Geraldo is authentically black, Puerto Rican or white. Doesn’t really matter though, he is quite happy to lecture the public on what appropriate discourse should be on racial matters, though the basis for this is unclear.

He is very PC, and not above kissing up to the liberal establishment if he believes it will benefit him. I can still remember during Clinton’s BJ crisis, Geraldo told the audience that he just loved this guy. (?!?!?!) Very inappropriate commentary for someone in his position.

There’s certainly no danger of him being mistaken for the late Bill Buckley. :-)

Obama the magic negro was taken from an article posted in the LA Times.

Rush normally bases his jokes on real events or things people really have said. He is good at parodies, and I think we all know what the word 'parody' means.

Evidently since Bill Clinton was the nation's first black President, every Clinton joke ever told gets scored as being "at the expense of black people"...

Although, judging by the way that foolish race-baiters such as Geraldo think, if black people make up 12% of the population, then a full 12% of the laughs that Rush Limbaugh gets had better be at the expense of black people, otherwise they will be "under-represented"...

Rush does a show about politics, and the Democrats/Left are all about racial politics and “civil rights”. Naturally, in the 20 years he’s been around nationally, he’s going to “have a lot of fun at the expense of (certain) black people”, like Sharpton, Jackson, Obama, Sheila Jackson Lee, et al. Come to think of it, Geraldo spends an inordinate amount of time talking about race: “discrimination”, illegal immigration, identity politics, he just comes at it all from the Left side of the argument.

I tolerated a few minutes of Geraldo and those out of context video bites. I have never been so disgusted with this lousy excuse for a talking head on Fox. Considering the kind of media scum he is,,,his skewering of Rush without Rush there for the “fair and balanced” response to the slander, means I will hit the clicker even faster when Geraldo appears on the screen. Hey at least that Lamont idiot is gone...fast talkin’ jerk.

Limbaugh only makes fun of people who are easy targets. If Geraldo thinks they are easy targets, then that’s his problem.

I remember seeing Jerry at a new hotel in Kuwait circa early 2003 (civil affairs HQ). I was priviledged to be there on a mission and got to slam the door in his face when he was trying to stick his nose where it didn’t belong. He is an ass!

Rush is on the radio roughly 1000 hours a year
including other interviews. He has been doing this
15+ years.

Geraldo was able to find less than a dozen snippets
from those thousands of hours.

None of those snippets came close to what the media
were saying about Rush.

In the 15 years I’ve listened to Rush, never has he uttered a racist comment. Rush knows his listeners back him 100 percent and we are never swayed by liars in the media. Geraldo is a moustachioed puffed up fancy lad who is totally unqualified for the position he has at Fox. I still remember the Al Capone vault thing, I was a kid, but I still remember what an arse he was even way back then. Maybe the guy who broke that chair on Geraldo’s nose was justified in doing so. He mighta had it coming...Rush should legally pursue all who used false quotes, and all who slandered him on this issue. The LSM will never get that when they attack Rush, we only love him more.

If libs like Rivera were honest, they would admit that they think it’s automatically racist to make fun of any black person...especially a liberal black person. They are supposed to be off limits. I remember a few years ago some newspaper scibbler in Madison, Wisconsin being outraged that Rush made fun of Jesse Jackson. Not if he was right or not, just the fact that he made fun of the biggest race hustler in the business was enough for a lib to call Rush a racist.

Read Skin Tight by Carl Hiassen for a funny reference to Geraldo Rivera in the character of Reynaldo Flemm, a news reporter who is always trying to get the big score, sometimes getting his nose broken in the process. His demise is particularly appropriate.
