The guy lied to get on the air. He told Snerdley he wanted to talk about Hillary, but launched into Larry Sinclair instead.
I could tell Rush knew exactly what the guy was talking about, but he obviously doesn't want to get drug into the fringe conspiracy stuff.
It's his show.
And liars never prosper.
Kind of a lame way to get out of it, though, don’t you think? If Rush actually did know about these people (and like I said, it would amaze me if he didn’t), then just say that, dismiss both of them as lacking any corroborating proof of their claims, scold the guy for lying to the screener, and it’s on to the next caller. Saying that you’ve never heard of them just makes you look uninformed — which is an impression that Rush would definitely not like to give to his listeners.
Good for him!
Every popular radio talkshow throughout recorded history has the same MO: drone on and on about one topic for the entire program and only answer calls from people who happen to be making the point the host was going to make anyway.
Rush Limbaugh is particularly good at this. His so-called "open Fridays" is the most misleading crock of bull manure on the air. He starts out every "open" Friday but suggesting a topic and then magical-mystery all of his callers happen to want to talk about that very subject.
That's about as open as a constipated ant!
You and Rush both need to remember that Raila Odinga's favorite cousin has stolen 1.7 million taxpayer dollars to finance his slimy legal defense team's ability to shield his birth data, school records and just about every damn document on this guy.
That 1.7 million dollar fact in itself is a story and a half, which doesn't allow much room for deniability from Rush, Odinga or you.
Why spend that kind of cash if he has nothing to hide?
Seems to me that you and Rush are incapable of seeing the forest through the trees.
Yes and Rush lied when he said he knows everything and he never heard of Larry Sinclair.
“I could tell Rush knew exactly what the guy was talking about...”
“And liars never prosper.”
If Rush “knew exactly what the guy was talking about” and Rush denied such knowledge, one might conclude that Rush lied too and since “liars never prosper”, Rush will never prosper.
I heard all this too and I don’t believe it speaks well of Rush if he didn’t know what the guy was talking about or if he did know and denied it.
Supporting the US CONSTITUTION is “fringe conspiracy”?
Your magical negro has thus far refused to prove his eligibility. This is SOLID FACT, not conspiracy. What does it mean to you to be a conservative; to follow conservative ideals, or to only follow them until the moment it becomes a bit difficult or politically awkward?
Rush doesn’t like to go out on a limb with conspiracy theories. You’re right about that. He’s very slow and almost waits for the thing to come true before he jumps on board. I remember back when he was still mocking callers who talked about the New World Order.
He needs to step it up a few notches. But he won’t. I don’t know if he’s afraid of losing listeners or advertisers or both. But as someone once told me about Hannity. There is still so much good he does. So many people he reaches and teaches.
If we want to go a little further out on the limb, we listen to Rev. Manning.
