More Evidence Rush is a Lurker on Free Republic...

Rush just used the word "schadenfreude." It's more evidence Rush is a lurker on here...

[SquirrelKing]

How does that provide you with "evidence"?

We have hearsay and conjecture, those are kinds of evidence...

[Burkeman1]

Wouldn't surprise me if he was a lurker at all. It wouldn't surprise me if he had a secret screen name and had posted a few times.

[Shermy]

Yep. And staffers too.

Rush is intelligent. Rush leans to the right. Freepers are (for the most part) are intelligent. Freepers lean to the right. Therefore, Rush is a Freeper and uses this site for some information he cannot get elsewhere. He would be smart to do so. IMO he is here a lot of the times. (Why would he go to the DU anyway, they cannot even get their stories straight!)

I was able to listen to the first half hour of Rush today. He was on fire!

He made some statement about the Kerry staffers secret conversation posted on Drudge. Drudge wouldn't reveal the source. He said "I can tell you all we know the source is not my housekeeper because this sounds true".

Then he launched into Daschle's MTP appearance and made me proud. He was in a rant about how liberal are all for compassion and diversity of though until you say something about Donavan McNabb on ESPN and they scream racism and want your head. He really tore into Daschle. It was beautiful.

Michael Savage often mentios high-feedback FR stories before they become national stories, leading me to think he is a lurker also.

One of the benefits of FR is that if you follow it regularly, you will get the news usually a couple of days before the chatter shows up on the networks and cable shows.

[lilylangtree]

Wonder if Hitlery is a lurker?

[kimmie7]

Yup, if Rush is here...I just want to say, "Love ya, buddy! Dittos!"

[ctonious]

It's time we Freepers give ourselves credit. This forum is the pre-eminent site for conservative political opinion. What are we up to now? - 80,000 members, or what?

And as Rush would say about this subject - good teams belong in the end zone - and they don't make a bid deal out of it when they get there. They just hand the ball off to the ref and get ready for the extra point. We're in the zone - and we shouldn't be surprised to see "movers and shakers" here too.

It's more evidence Rush is a lurker on here...

Of course he is. FR is where he gets his material ;-)

[stainlessbanner]

"Lurker" was the answer on Double Jeopardy two nights ago.

Maybe Alex Trebeck is a FReeper, too!

[TankerKC]

That, or he has read a dictionary before.

[headsonpikes]

This may seem like thin evidence to some, but Rudolf Carnap built a distinguished career on supposing that such inductive evidence counted.

I disagree, however.

OTOH, should Rush use 'weltschmerz', it's a different story!

[gridlock]

If ever I wind up in Ft. Marcy Park, you'll know that she is.

[ctonious]

Rush just used the word "schadenfreude."

>>Or he watches the Simpsons<<

Maybe someday, like FR, there'll be a Simpsonian Institute for us hopeless afficionados to lurk at.

[Merovingian]

At this point, Rush is desperate for support anywhere he can get it, AND is keen to know what is being said about him, ESPECIALLY on a conservative forum!

[LittleJoe]

it shows that they actually give a damn about what's going on out here, as opposed to the Nanny State overlords

And why Rush is the King Of Talk!

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Maybe he owns a dictionary.

[Republican Wildcat]

I think his mentioning Free Republic by name on a somewhat regular basis starting several years ago, reading threads and having his webpage link to threads would be stronger evidence than this...
