You say that, but you haven’t done anything to refute it. I can only judge Limbaugh by what he says, not what’s in his heart.

“Limbaugh was urging me to vote for the guy who pioneered Obamacare.”

Oh, so he should have endorsed some third party guy who had no prayer of being elected?

I have shown you exactly what Limbaugh said about the "caller abortions"...and you ignored it and avoided it like it was poison. Here it is again.

"None of what I did was real. Yet, in this country an abortion happens 4,000 times a day--for real...There is real emotional distress. There is physical harm and there's death...Where is the outrage against those who do it for real just down the street from where they live?...If you didn't know in your heart of hearts that abortion was a savage, violent act, what I did wouldn't have bugged you so much. I took you inside an abortion mill, and some of you couldn't take it."

This refutes your notion that Rush became pro-life late in the game and that he was trying to be funny with the "caller abortions."

If you won't acknowledge what he has said here, own up to your misunderstanding and knock off the ignoramus act, you're trolling, plain and simple.

That BOR gif tirade, was that before or after he did an Inside Edition report on spring break wet-t-shirt contests? He was sooo “deep” back then.

O’Reilly accused opponents of gay marriage of lacking “compelling argument[s]” and merely “thump[ing] the Bible

Good Pelosi style Catholic boy.

It's always a hoot to watch liberals explain to us what 'conservatism' is: "O’Reilly is a conservative populist, which is to say, he only champions those conservative viewpoints that he believes enjoy mass appeal."

O'Reilly is not a conservative, just ask him, he'll tell you. At best O'Reilly calls himself a "traditionalist", but O'Reilly believes in the efficacy of government regulation of the economy and of human behavior. O'Reilly believes that gasoline prices are the result of collaboration among oil companies. Just watch any of the segments of O'Reilly with John Stossel. O'Reilly simply does not understand how free markets actually work.

In any battle between Rush and O'Reilly, O'Reilly will be crushed. It won't be pretty.

Wouldn’t he have to give up his radio program OR give equal time to all candidates?

You obviously don’t listen much to Rush, because he’s many times expounded on the greatness of the free-enterprise system and other conservative issues and beliefs.

Bill O’Reilly conservatives...

I figured that it was an April Fools Day joke.

At this point I rarely watch FNC at all, sometimes I'll flip over during a commercial break on whatever else I was watching. But from what I remember, BOR show was about the worst one on the channel, and it always apparently has the most viewers. Sad comment that.

Whatever Limbaugh, believes personally, he declared victory last week for the gay marriage side.

What especially irritated me about that, is that Rush came on the air yesterday and tried to put some sort of spin on that statement.

He threw the left a gigantic Brontosaurus bone, and instead of coming on the air and admitting that it was a stupid thing to say, he tried to defend it. I can only describe it as a brazen act of cowardice.

I'm getting sick of "conservatives" who think "libertarian" (with a small l) is only and all about legalizing drugs.

Unfortunately, some libertarians act that way - playing right into the hands of those eager to use that broad brush to paint libertarianism out of the picture.

If we had small l libertarian government right now, the governnment wouldn't be in the job of punishing free people for peacefully choosing to reject things they deem immoral.

Social conservatives can't seem to grasp that a government powerful enough to impose personal morality is also powerful enough to erode personal morality.
