AND NOW . . . amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke. . . it is time for . . . that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-the-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back — just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, Maha-Rushie! America's Anchorman, Truth Detector, Doctor of Democracy, and Chief of the Patriotism Police. He is the man who runs America. He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do--That's host. Get ready to what you were born to do--That's listen (and post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread).
The irony is that it is the media rabid smearing of Palin that will cost State Senator Obama the election.
"Drive-by church ladies" perhaps?
Four presidents generally ranked in the top fifteen by historians have had experience comparable to Governor Palin’s prior to assuming office: Franklin Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Grover Cleveland.
Sarah Palin spent four years as a City Council Member for Wasilla, Alaska, six years as Mayor of Wasilla, and two years as Governor of Alaska.
FDR spent just over two years in the New York State Senate, eight years as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, and four years as Governor of New York.
Theodore Roosevelt three years in the New York State Assembly, two years as Governor of New York, one year as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, and less than one year as Vice President of the United States.
Woodrow Wilson spent eight years as President of Princeton University and two years as Governor of New Jersey.
Grover Cleveland spent two years as Sheriff of Erie County, two years as Mayor of Buffalo, and two years as Governor of New York.
Overall, I’d say that Palin’s background is comparable with that of several presidents considered highly successful, even considering that her state has a smaller population than the other two states on the list.
While Obama has been running for office for as long as Palin has been running a state, I find it hard to consider the two tasks as comparable preparation.
One final note: I will be posting this multiple times because I think it is important to get the word out that that her experience is in keeping with previous presidents. I apologize to those who are annoyed by seeing it too often.
Lunch is ending and I have to teach (no, I can't listen to Rush while teaching), but please let me know if he uses it on the air.
Funeral for US Army Soldier today
Anarchists Attack Pro-Troop Counter-Protester From Behind
To the tune of “Meet The Flintstones”:
Thompson... meet Fred Thompson.
He’s as straight-talking as can be.
Used to... be a senator.
He’s the gleaming pride of Tennessee!
Listen to the media take heat,
Thru the courtesy of Fred’s “red meat.”
When you’ve seen Fred Thompson,
have a yabba dabba doo time,
a dabba doo time,
we love the GOP!
Is “she will be reading off a teleprompter” becoming a Democrat talking point? FOXNEWS Wallace just used it, and I haven’t been to MSNBC yet, but they were treacherous last night, some of my real time observations;
Oh God, MSNBC, now Shivers Matthews can’t get over attacking the Palin Family, can’t win on Ideas, Shivers?
Unknown round table MSNBC staff seated next to Buchanan “wouldn’t pass the smell test” [obviously shaken](Rachel?)
MSNBC Andrea Mitchell
“Lieberman went Beyond where I thought he would go”
“he’s been a pariah in the Senate”
“last minute decision” speaking of McCain’s VP choice[but let me tell you Andrea, even last minute doesn’t mean wrong, and that’s why we are laughing at MSNBC staff tonite]
Unknown MSNBC staff on panel is ranting about how the Vice Presidential pick is so important, and how McCain has blew that trust from the American people, and I’m thinking, like Biden is a good pick, even setting aside politics, Biden has had brain aneurysms that could render him useless in an instant
and then she rants at Pat “you only new it for 5 minutes Pat” after he starts describing Palin’s experience, like that diminishes Palin’s experience, lol
MSNBC Olberman just informed us Fred Thompson coughed 70 times with an open mike, Fred may have a cold, Olberman
OLBERMAN, did you ever count the Ahhhhh’s Obama does every time he is unscripted? Ahhhhh 14 Times In 1 Minute 26 Seconds, Just Yesterday,
Obama on Hurricane Gustav Preparedness

No worry Harold Ford Jr is saving MSNBC by reminding everyone how miserable a place America is
Now MSNBC is asking Lieberman why McCain would pick Palin after considering Joe, it must not be obvious to Andrea Mitchell, but to the rest of us, McCain wanted to win, MSNBC staff is going to need Psychotherapy
Conservobabes are hot. Libitches are not.
Sorry for the double post. [Heading for the tall grass — and the radio!]
Olberman basically called Fred Thompson a liar.
He needs to do that to Fred’s face.
I love it “Troll b Gon”
Glad you brought it! =)
HELP!
Is there anywhere to listen to Rush on the internet?
They don’t seem to be carrying him here in Detroit.
Thanks for the ping! Go Rush Go!
AMEN to THAT, Maestro!
The scum-sucking media have slashed their own throats with their sickening coverage of Palin. And they won’t even realize it’s over for them until they are rotting like the other dinosaurs.
Of all the Republican candidates, the Media trashed Fred the most. He knows how it feels and I think he’s loaded for bear.
Fred and Newt have been the best interviews the past few weeks...I hope they make many appearances on the talk shows.
I would not be surprised to see an MSM boycott of them.
