I think Rush simply saw his comments had become a national issue, one that could affect the election and diminish Republican chances.

The loss of sponsors was also a factor. He saw he'd been targeted, Alinsky-style, and the situation would only grow much worse if left unaddressed. Businesses in the U.S. are terrified of being perceived as "politically incorrect."

And so it goes, a once great Christian nation has been turned into Sodom and Ghamorha. If we are lucky god will have mercy on us true believers. But I am afraid since we sit here and do nothing but complain we will be treated just like the Sodomites.

The only warning Rush got was four sponsors dropping him like a rock. So much for those “obscene profit timeouts.”

BTW, it can only be a “religious thing” because very few people outside of Christianity would have the courage to stand up to that kind of intimidation. As Christians, our allegiance to Christ is the very foundation of our faith. If we can’t stand up for Christ when the SHTF, then we have failed. The Bible tells us that we will be hated for our love of Christ and we should count it all joy when we are tempted, reviled and put to death because of our faith in Christ. The way the world is heading, it will be harder and harder for folks to resist unless they are one with Christ. We will choose the lions over Ceasar every time.

I think this “assassinate” stuff is silly and a total waste of time. Drudge ran a total HEADLINE by one of the last guys to talk with AB at the bar.

OK, thanks for the reply.

There’s a lot of overhyped responses, but as long as we make it clear we’re inferring—accurately—and not misquoting, I think it’s safe (well, fair) to say most of what Rush and others have said.

I haven’t heard anything about Jack. why is he included in your analogy?

You can google Jack P. Wheeler III. He was a reasonably significant figure in Washington who was seen wandering around in a daze and acting very strangely. Then his body was dumped in a landfill.

There was a "non-investigation" and people decided he probably had a stroke or something.

Was he poisoned? Was he killed? Why would they do that? I have no idea at all. But his death was weird.

Um, Booth wasn’t “assassinated.” He was shot in a barn resisting arrest.

OK, that’s all I asked —who was it, where is it?

Thanks, Travis - got a copy saved for further perusal and edification.

I lost all faith in the FBI and their DoJ cohorts a long time back. The CEO of a company I worked for was assassinated by a group of murderers under their criminal protection: Roger Wheeler. The FBI had those folks under wraps as confidential informants and allowed them free reign to conduct business.

Stay safe, FRiend!

"Oswald was a Soviet agent. Kennedy’s murder was ordered by Kruschev himself. They called it off, but Oswald was self motivated to do it and went ahead anyway."

This is so full of crap that even toilet paper wouldn't help.

Check the Drudge archives of two days ago. He kept it up for a while. AB really didn’t say anything provocative.

Um, I know that, but that was the wording used in the post I read somewhere on this site. I didn't reword it because I wasn't sure if it was a quote from the explanation of who sent it, or if the wording was used by the person who posted the info. But thanks.

OK. Thought you might be some sort of Neo Confederate insisting he was a patriot.
