ESPN Says Rush Is Out. Gateway Pundit Details Smears.

The "race card" game is still alive and active, with the recent treatment of Rush has proven.

It really is outrageous. Right from the first charge we posted Monday. The formula is familiar … spread lies … here … and here … and my favorite, here. Then put pressure on the NFL management to act, responsibly, or face the same fate ….. raaaaaaaacist. The end result … Rush is being forced out.

Rush Limbaugh is expected to be dropped from a group bidding to buy the St. Louis Rams, according to three NFL sources.

Dave Checketts, chairman of the NHL’s St. Louis Blues and the point man in the Limbaugh group attempting to buy the Rams, realizes he must remove the controversial conservative radio host from his potential role as a minority member in the group in order to get approval from other NFL owners, the sources said.

Maybe a few season ticket holders should boycott the games until they get a more representative fabric of America playing the games. This whole race matter is rediculous and is driving many of us crazy since it’s largely driven by the left.

Goodell is a wimp and ESPN is a bunch of over-paid jock-sniffers. Rush is a patriot and a genius, and infinitely more important than either ESPN or the NFL.

Assuming this is true, maybe he ought to just put his own group together and go bid against this bunch of spineless wussies.

Bozell to CNN, MSNBC: I Hope You Have Good Lawyers

“CNN and MSNBC were given ample opportunity to come clean, but both are continuing to masquerade malicious lies [against Rush Limbaugh] as credible,” Media Research Center President and NewsBusters Publisher Brent Bozell said in a statement today.

Yesterday, Bozell promised to report back publicly with how CNN and MSNBC responded to his challenge to put up – or shut up – proof that Rush Limbaugh actually stated the racist quote that both cable networks attributed to him as fact, or to immediately retract and apologize for their participation in spreading an outlandish lie.

Talk show giant Limbaugh denied having ever stated, “Slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back. I’m just saying it had its merits. For one thing, the streets were safer after dark.” Further, it has been established that this was a fabrication pushed through the Internet, intentionally designed to destroy Mr. Limbaugh’s reputation at a time he is attempting to purchase a professional football team.

In addition to this public call to action, Mr. Bozell overnighted letters to CNN President Jonathan Klein and MSNBC President Phil Griffin to ensure both took the matter seriously. Both CNN and MSNBC failed to respond appropriately.

This racist stuff from the left was despicable.

It is especially despicable when a.) they know it's not true or b.) they don't want to know that it's not true and, therefore, make no effort to check out its veracity.

This particular event is one of the best demonstrations yet of the absolute and total corruption of the media by liberalism.

It is extremely likely that GWB is going to buy the Texas Rangers in the very near future. Most likely he and Nolan Ryan will purchase the club as partners. I wonder if the Left will go after that too.

This is a shame. Al Sharpen is a racist, but I guess only blacks can be racists and get away with it.
