#553....Apparently, the network news orgs are now using Drudge and Rush as sources. Did anyone see the NBC Nightly News tonight? They played the "George W. Al Gore" clip from Limbaugh's show today. I was shocked.

It's good that most people I run into don't know anything about this non-story because they don't read the NYTimes, Drudge Report, Free Republic, or listen to Rush.

#553, posted by July 4th, informed us that NBC played the tape of Rush calling our president "George W. Al Gore." (I'm assuming that's not a joke.)

The only problem for Brokaw, NBC, Carvile, Rush, Drudge, Libertarians, the liberal media, and Hillary for President promoters is that Americans still have a high opinion of Bush.

Most of these rabid Bush-bashers probably didn't vote for him in the first place, and they have gleefully joined Rush, who is quickly turning into a has-been.

That's not true. As a matter of fact, I was one of those die hard supporters who said Bush "must have a plan to cream the Democrats on CFR". I knew he "would never sign it!" I knew he would fight the Dems on school funding. "No way would he cave on any of these issues!"
Then he caved again, and again, and again!
Boy, do I feel sheepish today.
I'm ashamed I supported him so adamently.
As far as Rush, I homeschool during the day and Rush is on then. I couldn't listen to the radio. Now that we're reviewing for SATs, I think Rush has found a voice much better than ever. He's comming through loud and clear, and he's absolutely right. We've been HAD!
I think those who really care about conservative issues would actually turn the radio up when Rush is on, so others can hear it.

I kid you not. This really happened. But apparently I'm the only one who saw it...you know, I always watch the NBC Nightly News to see what the opposition's up to.

99.99999999999999% of the Bush Bashers on FR never voted for GW. They have successfully closed down a lot of conservative internet sites with this Bush Bashing bully thugging. CNS was one of the sites. They are either DUers posing as conservatives or the phoney I will never vote for GW againers from the losers in life, the third party bully thugs.

Their only audience is here, and I guess now on the Rush show and the Savage show. I don't know as I don't listen to Rush, Savage nor Sean.

Reality shows that the professional Bush haters are as irrelevant to politics and political outcome as the looney tunes still locked up in state mental institutions. These looney tuners are outside for now. They are like gang leaders, all talk and tough until reality strikes. Reality will strike hard in November this year. When we ignore them and vote out the rats in the senate running in Bush country. TBL has posted that is what all of this about.

The NY Slimes has been controlling the so called news for at least 5 decades. They come out with some bravo sierra oped like this. Then their screaming heads and the smiling talking heads use the POS oped like it is divine wisdom and real world. What is different know is that Rush, Hannity and Savage are now the screaming heads and smiling talking heads spreading the manure for the Times.

People who believe in the NY Slimes never voted for GW nor will they. The something new in the news is the new pimps for the NY Slimes are Rush/Hannity and Savage and possibly Drudge are now Pimping the Slimes/Wash. Compost or maybe the LA Slimes left wing Bravo Sierra.

For many people "out there" who have never listened to Rush, and have only heard that he is a right-wing whacko, maybe playing his ridiculous "George W. Algore" clip on NBC will only reinforce the stereotype of Rush as a loon and boost W's credibility further (with enemies such as Rush . . .)

We can only hope the reaction goes in that direction. Can't believe your average American would agree that W. is ANYTHING like Algore.
