New book about Rush Limbaugh or comically oversized cigar lighter? Too soon to say?

Don’t you hate it when ancient, boring newspaper columnists too lazy to think up a decent topic that week decide to write about… the weird mail they get for their newspaper column?

I know I do.

So anyhow… Today I got this email:

Ms. Shaidle:

I was curious about your attack on Media Matters involving the Limbaugh quotes, since I’m writing a book about Limbaugh:

“After repeating the same manufactured ‘quotes’ day after day for weeks, Media Matters didn’t issue retractions or apologies to Limbaugh when they were revealed to be completely made up.”

Neither of your links indicates that Media Matters repeated these fake quotes (although many people did). Can you point me to a link anywhere that Media Matters used the fake quotes on their site?

Thanks John K. Wilson founder, www.obamapolitics.com author, “President Barack Obama: A More Perfect Union” (Paradigm Publishers, 2009), founder, Institute for College Freedom, www.collegefreedom.org, collegefreedom.blogspot.com author, “Patriotic Correctness: Academic Freedom and Its Enemies” (Paradigm Publishers, 2008) 773-SO-WRITE (773-769-7483)

My response:

John,

As reluctant as I am to assist someone writing a book bashing Rush Limbaugh, not to mention to work as your unpaid research assistant, there’s this.

Good thing to give him the info - otherwise you risk the comment “We asked for clarification but received no response”, thereby insinuating that you were lying...

A body slam against the marxist.

I checked the www.obamapolitics.com web site and my browser also said that it was an “attack site”!

Hahaha! Lefty losers!

When I had my fav IT guy work on my puter, seems going near Media Matters is a problem. No longer go near it.

I love her closing remark to the guy about waiting to see a pic of Rush on this private jet using a burning copy of his book to light one of his stogies.

Careful, Media Matters may start calling Rush a “book burner”.
