LOS ANGELES (AP) - A Hollywood director says she's working with actor John Cusack on a movie about conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.

Director Betty Thomas said Cusack's production company has a script ready that will star the actor as Limbaugh. It's not typecasting: Cusack is an outspoken liberal.

Production is set for next year, Thomas said. The working title is "Rush," Cusack's New Crime Productions confirmed Friday.

I figured if we had nothing to say to each other he would get bored; go away. But instead he uses it as an excuse to put his testicles all over me.

Aside from the fact that it will obviously be a hit piece, I think it’s a little weird to do a biopic of somebody who is still living.

Especially when the “victim” can retaliate and do it in such a way that it’ll be funny.

lol. We will see how much this film makes. Obama 2016 made 32 million. Although tempting to see it (as a comedy of course) I will not give a dime towards this movie even though John Cusack is a pretty decent actor.

Betty Thomas directed Howard Stern’s Private Parts, another docudrama about a superstar radio talk show host. Big difference being Stern cooperated and starred in that one.

So, let’s make an Obama movie

Conservatives did already. You can see it on DVD. It is called Obama 2016. Scary stuff. I don’t get to upset over movies made of conservatives since we make movies about liberals like Obama.

I anticipate 5 minutes spent on Rush’s radio success and 85 minutes on his drug problem.

Cusack, the man that is proof flesh can be drier than toast. He is got to be the most boring ‘actor’ in hollywierd.

The Philanderer!!! My oldest at the time loved that. LOL.

My story of finding Rush is this: I was what they at the time called a re-entry student. I went back to college at KU and naturally heard from my profs etc... what a horrible person this Rush Limbaugh was. So one day I was in the car and his show came on. Listened to it and was hooked. That was ‘92.

That is the extent of local Dem's this race here in Colorado. Blame Rush and cry “WAR ON WOMEN” Truly pathetic. They, like Bozo, have no accomplishments to run on.
