When Rush Limbaugh speaks...
Fox News and CNN each aired Limbaugh's keynote speech to the CPAC Saturday afternoon. It was the biggest draw all weekend on cable news.

The network peaked at 6pm with 602,000/2.73M.
FNC also produced an hour Sunday night at 9pmET with speech highlights which drew 454,000/1.66M. It was Sunday's most-watched cable news hour.
CNN added another 222,000 demo viewers and 932,000 Total Viewers for their Limbaugh coverage from 4:47pm - 6:12pm.
MSNBC stayed with their documentary programming which, from 4pm-7pm, averaged 163,000 demo viewers and 374,000 Total Viewers.
David Letterman has his thoughts on Limbaugh's buttoned down look at CPAC and he talked about it with CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric last night.
"He looks like an eastern European gangster," said Letterman. "Oh yeah, when you think Rush Limbaugh, you think, 'oh let's see a little flesh.'"
Couric wasn't biting. "Dave, don't do this to me, please!"

~~~And Rush’s audience grows .... PING!
What was Katie taking in her mouth?
cpac’s been around for a long time. Rush has been around for quite some time. And this may be the first time for many people to see and hear the real Rush for themselves.
Exactly what is needed. We need to have the truth broadcast day and night. God bless you, Rush.
Keep saying it, Rush:
~~~
3 trillion dollars of wealth have been lost since
Snowbama’s been elected!!
And Letterman looks like an eastern European homo.
Correct and this LIBERAL F’D-up MEDIA is just as much to blame. I really hope the Americans stop watching and believing their BS!
I hate what Letterman has become. He used to be anti-establishment while retaining his Indiana values. He’s completely sold out, just another celebutard.
Which explains the White House vitriol in response.
Barack Obama is an inexperienced Zero of a President, beloved by the Media and Rush tells it like it is.
Liberals and the drive by are horrified, with good reason.
It's a modern remake of the good (el Rush),
the bad (Zero Hussein)
and the ugly (The drive by MSM).
;)
Parenting frequently improves and softens people, bringing a new perspective. Not him.
>> “He looks like an eastern European gangster,” said Letterman. “Oh yeah, when you think Rush Limbaugh, you think, ‘oh let’s see a little flesh.’”
Rush is king — but I wouldn’t mind if he employed another button on his shirts.

I know no Freepers want to hear this, but I thought Rush with his open collar black silken shirt looked like he was trying to pick up women at a disco bar.
