I had a great weekend, folks, but, I'll tell you what: I went out and did some television Saturday in Los Angeles. There's a new show that probably will air soon, I'm not sure when, but it's called The Half Hour NewsHour." That's the working title of it now. I guess that's subject to change. Well, actually it's not, because if it changes I gotta go back out there, but nevertheless it's a parody newscast, takeoff on liberal media newscasts, and I play the president of the United States in the opening segments of this program.
I went out and shot three takes. Ann Coulter is the vice president. (laughing) It's hilarious. The whole thing is hilarious. I went out there and shot three opening segments. These things run anywhere from a minute to 90 seconds. It took eight hours to do these three segments on Saturday, all day long. I did it in the Fox Studios, then had a big after party at the Grand Havana Club. What a bash we had. I left about midnight to fly home and rolled into the driveway yesterday morning about 8:30. I hate spending a whole day coming back from the Left Coast in an airplane, because you lose three hours just because of the time zone differences. I got home at 8:30. I wanted to watch the football games in toto from the comfort of my fashionable estate, which I did. We were watching the Seattle-Dallas game on Saturday night at the Grand Havana Club. There's one in New York atop the 666 Building and one in Beverly Hills in Los Angeles. They are owned and operated by Stan Shuster, and they are outposts of civility now.
You can actually smoke cigars while having dinner, and they've got televisions all over the place. Yes, they're legal, Mr. Snerdley. We were watching the Dallas-Seahag game, and I just could not believe the way that game ended. You talk about the highs and lows? These people, these young kids, these athletes, everything they do is on the national stage. It's public, and the highs and lows they go through! Tony Romo, the savior of the season earlier this year for the cowboys, now the goat. Somebody turned to me and said, "Rush, what's the name of that Red Sox player that blew the ground ball through his legs in the World Series against the Mets?" I said, "That was Bill Buckner." So people were already starting to think that this was Bill Buckner II with Tony Romo. He's young; he'll get over it, but wow. To have the game... They still had to kick the field goal but it was less distance than an extra point.
For myself, the publication I miss the most was James Burnham's National Review Bulletin that alternated weeks with NR.
Limbaugh/Coulter?
I wish!!!
It is.
Some people are NEVER satisfied with ANYTHING. Would you rather he go on the air and say "I'm Rush, I suck, nobody likes me, and I have no talent?"
He TALKS TOO MUCH?
There's this thing called TALK radio. One would ASSUME that TALKING is a requirement.
Jeez.
I'd like to see Rush as a guest star on "24."
Glenn Beck is on the left coast working on a project with new "partners" he will be naming during the 10 AM hour of todays program. (Tuesday) Hummm --- any connection?
I think Rush would do overwhelmingly well among Republicans but HORRIBLY among idiot-pendent...er...independent voters.
Oh. Just a TV show with guests.
I thought the President L. was shooting the guests on his TV show ... Now THAT would be entertaining, but probably more of Ted Nugent's style of drama.
Apparently, since they did elect Daschle at one time.
True but the non-smokers prefer to play in the smoking areas and complain about the smoke.
The casinos that have banned smoking lose money because the smokers have to go outside to smoke--that's what I've read. Not been there; not done it.
That's his job. It's what he does for a living. What do you want him to do?
I need a high resolution version of this picture to post at work.
Yeah, it just cracks me up when he blathers on about flying across the country in his private jet to play golf with some name dropped celebrity. har har har
"Glenn Beck is on the left coast working on a project"
Isn't he with CNN?
Rush quoted - "I did it in the Fox Studios, then had a big after party at the Grand Havana Club".
That would have been a combo though!
Lots of ignorant folks needing some "smart feller"
on the radio to provide them with opinions I suppose.
It takes all kinds and we all don't like the same things.
Me, I'll pass on the all-knowing arrogant blowhard.
You please continue to enjoy being provided the opinions you cannot form on your own.
Thanks for the informed assessment, chief.
Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. - MLK
Turns out it was Diane Sawyer. Should be interesting
"Do they have a sense of humor in the upper Midwest?
"Arrogance is hilarious everywhere, I suppose."
Poor baby, you have mad lib disease, jealousy. The problem is not with Rush Limbaugh, it's with YOU. If you weren't jealous and envious you would have no problem with Rush. Now, off to the ignore bin with you.
