If you are reading this newspaper, the likelihood is that you agree with the Obama administration's recent attacks on conservative radio talker Rush Limbaugh. That's the likelihood; here's the certainty: You've never listened to Rush Limbaugh.
Oh no, you haven't. Whenever I interrupt a liberal's anti-Limbaugh rant to point out that the ranter has never actually listened to the man, he always says the same thing: "I've heard him!"
On further questioning, it always turns out that by "heard him," he means he's heard the selected excerpts spoon-fed him by the distortion-mongers of the mainstream media. These excerpts are specifically designed to accomplish one thing: to make sure you never actually listen to Limbaugh's show, never actually give him a fair chance to speak his piece to you directly.
By lifting some typically Rushian piece of outrageous hilarity completely out of context, the distortion gang knows full well it can get you to widen your eyes and open your mouth in the universal sign of Liberal Outrage. Your scrawny chest swelling with a warm sense of completely unearned righteousness, you will turn to your second spouse and say, "I'm not a liberal, I'm a moderate, and I'm tolerant of a wide range of differing views -- but this goes too far!"
There is more untruthfulness in that statement than in a speech by President Obama.

The greatest fear liberals have is the truth.
And the weapon they fear most is logic.
LOL! Great piece — thanks for posting!
Or substance.....instead of symbolism.
Many liberals are Rushophobes because, deep down, they fear they have some conservative sentiments.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I like it. Turn the tables on the 'tards.
Logic? If you try that they call you a fascist and throw an ashtray at your head.
we gotta make ‘em take the blue pill...
Yes, it's called common sense.
One big rule for liberals: It does not matter what is said, it matters who says it.
"Now let me tell you the real answer: You're a lowdown, yellow-bellied, lily-livered intellectual coward. You're terrified of finding out he makes more sense than you do." Andrew Klavan
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! I love it!
Hear from liberals who took the bait.
There won't actually be any, of course; "taking the bait" for a Liberal would require at least a modicum of integrity and personal courage.
There will be some who will claim to have listened, of course... they'll be lying, naturally, just like the Seminar Callers to Rush's show.
Which is why liberals do not accept "facts" anymore.
Mark my words, when the author reports on liberals who took the challenge to listen, the overwhelming response will be "he uses flawed data" and "he distorts the truth".
Liberals have embarked on a dangerous mission. Just think about what happened after 9/11 with the number of people (liberals) who deny it was a terrorist attack.
The abandonment of "facts" that both sides can agree upon can only lead to disasterous consequences.
“One big rule for liberals: It does not matter what is said, it matters who says it.”
Second big rule for liberals. Intention is greater than actual content.
The Marxian dream world continues..
We have the start of a good list!
This is printed in the LA Times? Quick, check to see if California is still there or been swallowed by an earthquake.
I really enjoyed that article.
