Thanks for the Ping.
GW: That is one righteous post!
A thought or two:
If Limbaugh has been avoiding weighing in without reservation on the bs "Barack Obama" birth and life narrative simply for fear of provoking an incendiary backlash from the left (and of losing advertisers), it would appear that he has forgotten a very important fact: The Left want to destroy him anyway, and will use any pretext to do so. It's not like their waiting around to pounce when he dares mention "birther" concerns. They're lying (heh) in wait anyway, for anything they can get their hands on to use as a weapon.
He's got his very own research team, for pete's sake! You think he doesn't know, or at least have the ability to be informed of, in great detail, all of the crap dead-ends and false trails surrounding the "history" of this man sitting in the White House? Why won't he at least talk about the maddeningly unverifiable (documentarily) much of anything in Barry's past?
I'll say the same thing about him as I said about Rick Perry who collapsed like a cheap suit shortly after bringing the issue up: He has enough stature that if he were to raise the subject, and was actually knowledgeable on it, he could force the conversation nationally.
I like Rush and think that he will come through this tempest in a teapot just fine. I also think he's either making a mistake in not talking about all the malarkey that has gone on in support of installing, and keeping installed, this fraud, or else there is more going on.
There was a bomb scare at his house the same day that Joe Arpaio's CCP released their first results, and the same day that Andrew Breitbart died of "natural causes" at 43, hours after talking with Sheriff Joe. Say, wasn't March 1st a day that Andrew had said to watch for? Come to think of it, wasn't March 1st 1971 the day that Billy Ayers' group bombed the Pentagon?
Hmmm.

And a liberal group, in a MASSIVE online campaign, captures 360,000 people in a petition to condemn Rush.
Rush Limbaugh About The Official Facebook Page of America's Anchorman
1,037,985 like this 35,945 talking about this
Sounds impressive, right?
Kind of like the signatures in the Scott Walker recall. The numbers sound impressive, except that even if you include the phony signatures that were submitted, the total number is still only a fraction of the number of people that voted for Scott Walker in the general election!
From FOX News:
The rush to censor Limbaugh
So why are the Left and the media still pushing and publicizing a campaign for advertisers to dump the Limbaugh show and end his career?
Because it has little to do with his words. This is all about disingenuous politics. Liberals want this government-mandate controversy to be not about religious liberty, which is devastating, but about contraceptives, which works in their favor.
That is intellectually dishonest.
They want to position conservatives as anti-women. Thats as ugly as it is untrue.
Everyone remembers Ed Schultz calling Laura Ingraham a slut on his radio show.
Fellow talk show host Mike Malloy hoped Sarah Palin drives herself into madness and insisted Michele Bachmann is an evil bitch from Hell who would have gladly supervised the Holocaust.
Montel Williams rooted on Air America for Bachmann to slit her own wrist or throat.
Randi Rhodes insisted that teenage boys werent safe from Palins advances if they stayed over at her house. Theres no news coverage or war on women narrative when the mud-covered women are conservatives.
Maybe these hosts arent prominent enough?
Then consider the case study of Bill Maher, whos welcomed all over TV news shows.
A year ago on his HBO show, he called Sarah Palin a dumb twat.
He followed up days later in a Dallas stand-up routine by calling Palin the C-word.
Last July on HBO, he said Palin was a bully who sells patriotism like a pimp, and the leader of a strange family of inbred weirdos.
Last September on his show, Maher said Palin would have sex with Rick Perry if he was black.
Days after he called Palin the T-word, he appeared with then-CNN host Eliot Spitzer, where Spitzer concluded, Your show is brilliant. I love watching it.
On Sunday, Democratic Party chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz huffed on Meet the Press that "I don't know any woman in America that thinks that being called a slut is funny." But two months ago, she accepted an invitation to sit on the set with the man who called Palin a c---.
A couple of years ago, comedian Louis CK joked on the Opie and Anthony radio show about Palin coming to the Republican convention holding a baby that just came out of her f-ing, disgusting [C-word], her f-ing retard-making [C-word]. I hate her more than anybody, he said.
On Twitter, this comedian attacked Palin in 2011 as a fing jackoff [C-word]-face jazzy wondergirl who has a family of Chinese poor people living in her [C-word] hole.
Guess which event this same fellow is headlining in June? -- The Radio and Television Correspondents Dinner.
WHERE'S THE OUTRAGE?!?!?

"I just wonder why he didnt address the lies in the fake testimony instead of focusing on Fluke when she wasnt even talking about herself. He could have accomplished so much more by exposing her lies."If he did just that, there would be no "flap" about it.
Look at all the information coming out about her now.
He probably knew there would be a great fall out, hence his Thursdays program digging in his heels further.

And that is the truth - one of the parts that Giant Ego Peter Jackson didn’t mess up.
We watched “Monte Walsh” the other night. Apparently Tom Selleck said, “I feel like making a movie ... let’s go out to Canada for some really spectacular scenery, have a lot of people ride around on fine horses, and invite all my friends to take parts. Oh, what ... we need a plot? Freep that ...”.
