“...the left has something we don’t have, and that is the media. Bill Whittle said something very interesting in his tribute to Andrew Breitbart, the fight is not against the left, not against Obama, its against the media..because if the media were not biased, the liberals wouldn’t control everything.”

I completely agree. Among the few media outlets conservatives have are talk radio personalities. The left has now applied their war paint, danced around the fire and are on the move. Rush had to circle the wagons. The savages will now be unrelenting in their attacks. They’ve tasted blood and it is to their liking.

The left picked the wrong fight. This is a slaughter for Rush.

I doubt if Fluky ever saw a contraceptive thingy.

Bringing a knife to a gun fight....

Pardon me but Rush has been under attack for over twenty years.

This is a cake walk for Rush, guaranteed!

I know libs very well as I’m sure most of us do. They would literally (given a choice) shut down and probably cheer the murder all dissenting voices. I’m serious. Wheras I couldn’t care less if 600 new liberal radio stations sprung up tomorrow, the more the merrier. That’s the difference.

I could be wrong, but I think this will all blow over in a month or so. Rush stepped in it with his comments, missing an opportunity to nail Flukes for her bogus testimony and giving the left a bit of a club in an election year, but it won’t last. Sponsors are CYA’ing right now, but there will probably be new ones when things cool off a bit.

The left has been tasting blood for years. That is why they wanted Obama to win so badly. They saw something in Obama that they did not see in Hillary Clinton. They saw Obama as the opportunity to turn America into Europe, something that progressives have wanted for what, 100+ years. They saw that guy in Obama. The libs have always pretty much controlled the media, but the last few years, they have really let it be known how biased they are. They will NEVER say one bad word about Obama, because they are his cheerleaders, they give money to his campaign, and do his bidding. They will never turn on him, never..they go after Conservatives because they see us as the last remaining obstacle in turning America into their progressive utopian society..they don’t just want us silenced, they want us dead..Rush, Sarah, etc etc..we can all fight the good fight but if people are still willing to believe the crap coming from the media how can we possibly win
Rush will be fine, he’s not a stupid man, he knew what would happen here, he has been under attack since the moment he went on the air, he knows the drill, he will be fine, as long as we continue to support him. I know why he issued that apology, he felt like he had no choice, no sponsors equals no show.

Thank you. A program designed to backup would probably be much better than just copy&pasting to a flash drive. Offsite storage would be good too in case, oh, someone blasted my house with an EMP. Sure, it could happen! lol

Someone was going to say something. Whether a Congressman, a talk show host or something.

Actually I think the Limbaugh thing s an added bonus for them, I think they were trying to create an issue where none exists.

Now, why is it that it’s okay for advertisers to pull out of Rush Limbaugh’s sponsorship, due to concerns about his program content, but it was NOT okay for Lowe’s to pull out of advertising the reality show “All American Muslim”, due to concerns about that program’s content???

Oh, but it is OK.

It's also OK for those of us who agree with Rush (and disagree with Carbonite et al.) to refuse to do business with them ... and to discuss our refusal in public.

Long Live Free Speech!

After cancelling subscription to Carbonite, I later checked the site and got this message:

We are making improvements to serve you better.
Service will be restored soon.
Thank you for your patience

I think maybe I am not alone in this Jihad.

He really used the word, “slut”?

While I was listening, he only said that people who take money for having sex are prostitutes — and she wants to get money for having sex. I never heard “slut”, although I may have missed it. As vile as she is, I’d say Rush went easy on her.
