Reading [http://www.perspectives.com] this (admitted lefty, POS) forum, Rush made the same "misstatement" numerous times ...

During the course of the spinfest, at least three or four times the Ruby Ridge incident was cited as an example of past Democratic abuses of power. I have a little tidbit of info for Rush and his neocon minions. When Federal agents made their assault on Ruby Ridge, the president was George H.W. Bush.
To the extent Rush needs credibility to influence his listeners, he's inclinded to correct his errors. THis is one error that I think he can correct with little fallout to his message.

In the long view of things, I sometimes find Limbaugh's mesage to be inciteful and suitably based in sound logic; and other times I find him to be a shallow party cheerleader. I personally find his PATRIOT Act and NSA surveillance discussions to be closer to the cheerleader end of that spectrum.

If we sat down & talked about it, we'd probably have a lot of common ground on that particular issue. My purpose in posting the evidence of previous misstatements was to say that replies of 'it's only one little error, geezze what's your problem' are be rather pointless. :)
