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, serving humanity simply by showing up, and he’s not retiring until every American agrees with him, do NOT doubt him, with shrieks of joy at the mere mention of his name (that’s Rush, for those in Rio Linda),the Mandarin of Talk Radio, 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, all-concerned Maha-Rushie! America’s anchorman, truth detector, and doctor of democracy. A Real Man, a living legend, a way of life. Commander in Chief of U.S. Operation Chaos. Chief Waga-Waga El Rushbo of the El Conservo Tribe. Chief of the Patriotism Police. Leader of the Conservative Movement. A Weapon of Mass Instruction. El Rushbo (a little Spanish lingo, there). He is the man who is running America (you know it and I know it). 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).
A Little Perspective, Please [Rich Lowry, 03/04 01:57 PM]
While some conservative bloggers plunge into depths of despair that Rush Limbaugh gave a speech at CPAC not up to their standards and the White House congratulates itself over it's supposed cleverness in elevating Rush, can we all take a deep breath please? Barack Obama and the Democrats have the initiative. Until such time as their policies are perceived to have failed, it doesn't matter too much what Republicans do. Yes, they obviously should endeavor to be sober and creative—replenishing their policy arsenal for the day when the public is seriously paying attention to them again—but the big question in American politics right now is how Obama handles the financial crisis and the economy. In the grand scheme of things, everything else is commentary.

So Rush, Sean, and Mark are fringe? They said it during the election.
Someone is sane at DU. This is on a thread on Time Mag article

7. I am not a fan of Limbaugh’s but the article has a point:
At what point does criticism by an administration cross the line and become viewed as attempts (veiled or overt) to use it’s power to silence a critic and thus a 1st amendment violation?
Let’s not be in such a rush (no pun intended) to minimize Limbaugh that the rights spelled out in the Constitution get trampled.

So, What’s his point??
Alexis de Tocqueville
Question for Lowry: de Tocqueville a fringe guy, too?
Drudge now has Rush calling out King Obama on his site. LMAO. Game on...
Are you sure they haven’t removed that yet? It’s too sane for DU
The Big O still hasn’t called in. What is this about Gibbs calling Limbaugh Fight Counterproductive?
I think he's trying to claim that he is "above the fray" and we rubes out in the heartland don't have his "enlightened" perspective.
Isn't it King Obama making Rush the issue? Lowery seems to be forgetting this.
And besides, it is extremely productive for conservatives to say what they believe in, especially in times of adversity and when out of power. To not do so is to abdicate our principals and cede to the socialist agenda of King Obama and his Dem cabal.
Goldberg has a good article on Rush.

...Harry, You can jump into the fire, but you’ll never be free,,,
Maybe Lowery is auditioning for the part of 5th Butt Boy? ;>)
LOL. It is certainly not in tune with the usual idiotic statements there.
No, it’s still there. They’ll probably research all his posts and out him eventually, tho.
A one word response is all that should be sent and Mark Steyn used it the other day (I’ve been using it since 2006):
SQUISH!
Drudge should make this his headline with the flashing siren and keep it up there till Nobama and his butt boys respond to Rush’s debate offer.
Let 0zero fight this out in the MSM. Will make them look like bullies.
