Let’s see if the ACLU will represent him again! This is just wrong! >:-(

[screaminsunshine]

With ya starting with the Tampa Obamaneers. Screw the NFL. It has become the Negro Football Losers. Blacks hate us.

[elizabethgrace]

As far as I can tell, it’s still only “3 sources say” Rush will have to be dropped from the group.

Has it been confirmed by any of the principals?

[beandog]

I think he went back to sleep so he can wake up again and spout off about something he knows nothing about.

[Infidel Heather]

Sue the heck out of them, Rush. We’ll help you if you need us to!

[WalterSkinner]

..is it possible that pressure to make this decision came from a lot higher than the NFL on this ownership group?

Perhaps a phone call or two came from a certain residence in DC--this is their way of a payback--pathetic...

[Stultis]

Without Limbaugh, Checketts and his group would have to find a financial substitute to replace the sizable investment that Limbaugh intended to make.

If only Marge Schott were still alive!!!

[awake-n-angry]

I apologize ohioWfan, I did not see your post 291.

Now, what is the source of your info? Who made these claims? Where are they published or taped? How did they influence this guy Clagget to drop Rush? The answer to these questions is the material that will determine if a suit is in order.

[Infidel Heather]

Give me the NFL commissioner’s email addy, the boycott is well underway in this house.

(Even if the Saints win the Super Bowl this year.)

[Soul Seeker]

Oh, so the league considers SOROS a respectable figure but not Rush? Just gets easier with each news break not to watch this circus anymore.

Dave Checketts, chairman of St. Louis Blues and Scottrade Center owner SCP Worldwide, said he is working behind the scenes to bring JetBlue Airways service to Lambert-St. Louis International Airport.

Checketts is a founding member of JetBlue’s board of directors.

LOL

Mark is reporting that Soros was a member of Rush's group (unknown to Rush), and that he may have leaked Rush's name. Also, Mark is reporting that the group INVITED Rush to invest with them.

This is HUGE.

As someone said upthread, Rush was punk'd. In the Oval Office, Obama is laughing his head off right now.

[Steam rising from my ears.]

Rush, darling, I have an idea. Why don't you read, tomorrow or Friday, from Larry Sinclair's book? Read the part about how Chicago politician Barack Obama enjoyed his evening in the limo with Larry so much that he arrived unbidden to Larry's hotel room the next night for more. Then skip ahead to when Rev. Wright's choir director, the out, gay Donald Young, was calling Larry and telling him he was a longtime lover of Barack's, and then suddenly the calls stopped because Donald was murdered.

Just an idea.

[rintense]

The Obama admin for their wish, didn’t they?

[beandog]

Excuse me but aren’t you the one who said “I only heard the repeat of his statements”. Which statements might those be? Who said them and when?

[ohioWfan]

Rush played them today (they are taped and sourced, as everything Rush says is). They were broadcast repeatedly on sports and news networks (you really need to pay attention).

And they included Jesse Jackson in all his devious glory.

How did they influence Claggett?? Are you kidding me?

Figure it out yourself. Everyone else has.

[ohioWfan]

I wrote a lengthy e-mail, forgot to copy and save it, sent it, and they said there was an "error" on the page, so it never got there.

My guess is that they are now being swamped. Good.

I'll save what I write this time....

[Peter W. Kessler]

The network will quarantine any section where signs critical of the NFL are waved.

...by orders of the NFL.

Or, the stadium owners will quickly establish a rule barring any signs, banners, etc. from the venue.

[rintense]

Yeah, that happened to me too.

[ohioWfan]

Correction - Checketts.

Never copy from a guy who doesn't have any information. :)
