"If Rush was such a fan of Bush-why would he have called him George W. Algore? And made Bush into a cartoonish buffoon on his website?"

First off, Rush didn't call Dubyuh "George W. Algore"...Limbaugh simply read an email from a listener who did. And as for that cartoon, I've now heard about it twice but when I went and checked our the EIB website, it wasn't there. I recall Rush's none-too-flattering rendition of the "typical FReeper" and I chafed at that, but in hindsight, it was rather funny. I suspect his parody of Bush is similar. Did you hear Shanklin's "Bad Mood on the Right" sung to CCR's "Bad Moon Risin'" he played today?! LOL...I can see Dubyuh gettin' a chuckle outta that.

"If Rush truly cared for Bush, why didn't he call the WH first? A humble person, someone who had feelings for Bush, would have given them a heads up, behind the scenes and allowed Bush to be the one to make the first remarks on the report. Fred Barnes last night, read excerpts from the report and Rush totally, completely misled his audience. It was a shabby publicity stunt."

I think Dubyuh is as pleased with his independence from Rush as Rush is with Dubyuh...it would behoove neither for those two to be seen as working in concert. But I disagree that Rush misled his listeners...the report DID appear to give credence to the Leftist EnviroWhackos assertion that Global Warming is a FACT and that it was most likely a result of human actions. Those aren't points I'm willing to concede as I've seen much good research to the contrary. In the end, Dubyuh came down on the side of Rush, disavowing the Report released by "The Bureaucracy."

FReegards...MUD

I appreciate the tone of your remarks-we can agree to disagree and still be civil. NBC Nightly News credited Rush with the remarks, when they played the clip the other night. The algore/Bush morphing apparently remained on his site yesterday-it was damn ugly and I found it personally offensive. I think Rush has gotten tiresome and I wish there were more options in conservative talk radio.Have a good day.
