Ah yes, so once again we see that not only did someone in the press evidently fabricate a story about Rush, or at least stretched supposed facts, so many here on FR were willing to believe it at a moments notice.

Thanks for that news. Actually, the majority of posts have been suspecting the validity of the original story. Yah, a few jumped the shark. This is FR after all.

What you say is correct. But take a look at those that just took that story at face value. Most of them have been here for years and should know better than to believe the MSM without some serious validation. At least, you would think they would have learned by now.

We all bitch at the Dims for similar things, particularly with our military, yet here we have long term FR members basically doing the same thing.

Fortunately, as you point out, they are in a minority. The only surprise is, as I have already mentioned, most of them have been members for years and should have learned long ago not to trust the first source when it is the MSM, especially in something as obvious as this.
