Rush Limbaugh has every right in this United States of America to state his opinion re any upcoming election.

Rush Limbaugh’s audience can then use their God-given brains and decide who to vote for.

The writer of this article is a serious Kookoid.

“Who is Rush Limbaugh...”

She doesn’t know who Rush Limbaugh is?

[xjcsa]

For years I’ve been a fan of talk radio personality Rush Limbaugh, the “harmless lovable fuzzball”, and I’ve always enjoyed his humor and commentary. But recently, something has changed. He’s crossed a line. Limbaugh is now actively manipulating the Republican electorate in ways that are unacceptable for an entertainer, or even a self-styled ideologue and opinion shaper.

Classic seminar caller.

Even though Carol Devine-Molin believes she is the sharpest tool in the shed, she is not.

Rush Limbaugh is a successful entertainer (never forget that about him) who has found a lucratvie market amongst conservative Americans, whose views he seems to generally share. He is playing to that market very successfully...and his influence is what his listeners make it.

In terms of his influence, it is no different than saying "Who is Ophra?", or, "Who is this or that Hollywood or other entertainer?" who comes out endorsing a candidate...except, oh yea, to this point, Rush has not made a specific endorsement.

“But then he has the chutzpa to engage in heavy-handed tactics that are meant to skew the outcome of the GOP election process.”

I get it.... She has the right to express her opinion, but Rush does not.

[evets]

Aaaaww... don't cry Carol.

[rhombus]

Who is this person with a hyphenated name who I’m supposed to believe is a regular listener of Rush?

[A. Morgan]

[traderrob6]

A better question, who the he!! is Carol Devine-Molin?

[counterpunch]

Carol is pretty stupid.
She’s accusing Rush of doing what everyone in journalism, herself included, sets out to do every day of their lives.

"Limbaugh is now actively manipulating the Republican electorate in ways that are unacceptable for an entertainer, or even a self-styled ideologue and opinion shaper"

Since when is that "unacceptable"? Unacceptable to whom? Her?

[MortMan]

I find it interesting that the author doesn’t seem to take any offense at the blatant manipulation of GOP votes committed by anti-conservative/anti-republican MSM shills.

Rush has every right to express his opinion, just as us dittoheads have every right to disregard his opinions when we think he is wrong.

The author, obviously, doesn’t trust us to think.
