I am embarrassed at how slow my mind was working today as I considered this topic and thread. But now there is some genius in turning the tables for Rush by skipping the blogger and going straight to the MSM with libel charges.

Here is how it works. First, Rush gets to embarrass the MSM and force them to make a retraction. The embarrassed networks will likely cite their source and totally discredit the blogger. Rush gets to amplify his claims that the MSM is "drive by" and doesn't research or investigate anything that supports their bias. Then they have to report that "Rush did not say those things." I doubt they will stop short of saying, "...So Rush is not racist." But their stopping short will only fuel the controversy.

The MSM always finds a fall guy. The fall guy will end up being the blogger. If Rush goes after the blogger, it will only help the blogger and it will look like the big guy picking on the small kid. Besides, what does Rush have to gain from the blogger? An apology? Big deal.

Rush, go after the media for reporting more false stories. Sue them for slander and libel. In the suit, insist they report in primetime on Monday that their reports were wrong and Rush did not say things we reported here. He should announce that any monetary sums he wins will be donated to republican candidates or to Fox News Network.
