When we get a DOJ that is not a liberal organ.

The fact that advertisers can be so easily rolled by a scam like Twitter is depressing.

I have noticed the same thing...lots of PSA’s during Rush’s show. Particularly since he got bumped to the little AM station here in Pittsburgh.

I think perhaps it’s that the local station is not selling ads. Radio is becoming a harder and harder sell to advertisers. None of their demographic trends are very good.

I'm sorry I missed this thread earlier. I don't miss Rush often, but didn't catch it there either.

This is another alarm that most people will miss or ignore as has been done with the take over of our public schools, the 95% domination of liberal propagandizing in the media and the general disruption of our social and civil society by the constant efforts of activists that harbor bad intentions for our republic.

>>> AND WHAT A COINCIDENCE THAT THERE ARE COMMENTS ON THE RUSH THREAD TODAY ABOUT THE COMMERCIALS BEING PLAYED ON LOCAL STATIONS!

I know the subject is about censoring Rush and that is indeed a nasty item to learn of BUT the larger point I was making is that there is technology available that is being used to make a handful of people appear to be hundreds of people.

Read the whole article and it goes into some details about the software capabilities.

Then there is the organized troll rooms that canvas forums (incl. FR), blogs and comments sections of news websites to impersonate conservatives or spread disinformation and so on. I believe that is what you are seeing on CSPAN as well.

And who pays for this? Remember just a few weeks back how it was learned that Obama’s justice department had taken billions in settlements from banks and had given part of the proceeds to leftist community organizer groups?

This is gorilla warfare without doubt.

We would have to break the law to do the same back at them. We would have to form an underground and a means of communicating that is not detected unless we want it to be. Kind of like General George Washington who many people don’t realize was a Spy and a Master of Deceit, against his enemies.

To the press as a whole. The fact that the vast majority of the press has the same top story, day after day after day, is evidence of absence of independence.

"We would have to break the law to do the same back at them. We would have to form an underground and a means of communicating that is not detected unless we want it to be."

If fighting fore with fire is the only alternative, so be it.

What you have pointed out has been true of the internet since the beginning. With slick web site presentation, one person at home can take on the presence of a large corporation, or organization. In the same sense a few busy bloggers can push conversations in lots of different areas.

The big difference I see both nationally and locally is that liberals are relentless in their pursuits and conservatives are normally not. Conservatives tend to stay on familiar or comfortable territory and maybe pass on a couple of email jokes or forward sensational stories of the day (along with hoaxes), but that's about it. Liberals, on the other hand, seem to live for politics. It drives their lives and therefore activism is what makes them whole and brings them together.

If a local issue is of serious interest a big effort may bring 10 or 20 conservatives to the court house steps. But liberals will travel thousands of miles to join a demonstration such as we are seeing in Ferguson.

Rush has said on several occasions that 90 percent of the complaints he receives are from only 10 people, and the groups that rally behind those 10 people.

They want to shut Rush up, because Rush is EFFECTIVE and AFFECTIVE.
Rush is exposing their LIES, and destroying their ability to MISLEAD people.
Thus Rush is taking away their power,.

Can we use this to make the Republican party pay attention to Conservatives for once?

Doubt it! The GOP-e is on Rush's $hit list!

I dropped Carbonite because they decided to stop advertising on Rush’s program due to the pressures activists used on them. It was a dumb decision that hurt their business because I not only stopped using Carbonite but I usually tell others about it and they stop as well.

I’m now using Crash Plan and it’s less than half the cost for the same service and free for smaller users.
