For a radio guy, the attack on him is a guarantee of increasing listenership and revenues. Nothing beats that.

It's such a simple concept that they shouldn't have to have it explained to them.

Who knew Susan Estrich was the brainiac of the left? That's like being the tallest midget.

The blogoshpere is full of smart, savvy, creative progressive voices, who can and should engage Rush. Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann should give him their best.

I've never listened to Rachel Maddow (though I have watched her effectively run the Indianapolis Colts offense), so I can't comment on her.

But Susan is out of her mind if she thinks Keith Olbermann could ever effectively counter any of Limbaugh's positions. Olbermann only rebuttals would be fat jokes and something about Rush eating poopy.

All liberals know how to do is insult demean and ridicule, They can never defend their policies because they are indefensible and they know that.

What is being missed here is the fact that our government in the form of the White House is attacking a private citizen and his right to free speech.

When Nixon made similar mistakes he was excoriated for it. How times have changed. Now the press is willing to carry the water for someone who is attacking the very right under which they work proving they have traded journalism for propaganda and style for substance. Ed Morrow is rolling in his grave.

Sad thing is that this attack on Limbaugh is just the opening salvo of a war to kill conservative talk radio with some form of Fairness Doctrine likely through FCC regulations. Obama will tolerate no criticism and wants Republican members of Congress to know their place by staying on the reservation and kowtowing to Reid and Pelosi. That Rahm Emmanuel is in daily telephone contact with the major media outlets and issuing their talking points is chilling. It is little different than Joseph Goebbels dictating what the German media would say about Hitler.

Trying to beat him at his own game when your own game is played by a different set of rules is a losing proposition. He knows that.

That's right, Rush doesn't cheat. Their rules consist of excluding any other viewpoint than their own.

Nancy’s got a Nixonian enemies list.

Chairman Maobama has one.

When will Harry publish his list?

Of course it is dangerous for a Dem to attack Rush - 90% or more Dems are no-where near a smart as Rush. He could take any of them apart in a debate.

Rush just issued a challenge to the Messiah to come on his program for a one-on-one debate.

Never happen, Obama - or his handlers - are just smart enough to know when they are over-matched.

I think it's telling that this new administration, with a supposed overwhelming mandate, is getting defensive already. They're feeling the heat and are worried about the criticisms starting to emerge from various media outlets. This defensiveness doesn't usually develop so early.

Susan is right that picking a fight with Rush is a strategic mistake, especially this early. Rush will be fired up, and help the GOP focus on the issues at hand with renewed vigor leading into the 2010 elections. I expect us to pick up enough seats to limit his agenda.

Susan is right. The Dems are so used to pummeling any opposition into silence they don't realize that Rush is one little cactus in the middle of an otherwise clear battlefield.

But he has deep roots. I just reupped my Rush 24/7 subscription.

She believes that the current coordinated Democrat strategy of attacking Rush Limbaugh is completely counterproductive.

Susan Estrich may not be that attractive, but she ain't STOOPID!

A bit off topic, but...
Does anyone know if Susan Estrich had a serious throat injury or is her voice the result of smoking 4 cartons a day?
