If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck… well… the chances are excellent you are looking at a duck.
Or a liberal.
By now the news that CNN anchor Rick Sanchez was briskly fired by CNN for calling the liberal champion Jon Stewart a “bigot” because of various Stewart mockings is old news. Right?
Not so fast.
As noted here the other day, the news reports that CNN had quickly fired Sanchez for calling Stewart a bigot contrasted sharply with the CNN response after Sanchez had aired a 100% bogus report that Rush Limbaugh had once spoken out in favor of slavery. The Limbaugh episode arose when Rush was part of a deal to buy an interest in the NFL St. Louis Rams. Because of flat-out untruths such as the one uttered by Sanchez on CNN, the deal fell through. Under legal pressure, Sanchez retracted on-air. But the damage to Rush Limbaugh — real-time, serious damage to a personal business deal — was done.
Now comes a small, but telling detail that illuminates the real behind-the-scenes relationship of those in the mainstream media with their fellow liberals.
The New York Post reported yesterday that… get this… Rick Sanchez’s wife Suzanne… his wife… has manned up to go on the Sanchez Facebook page to say… what? Here’s the first line of the Post story:
Embarrassed Rick Sanchez is wisely letting his wife do the talking for him.
And what talking might that be? Well, it appears that while there is a nod to reports Sanchez harbored some anti-Semitic feelings, and his wife apologizes for that to “anyone who was offended by his unintended comments” — there was another, much more specific apology made by the ex-CNN anchor.
That’s right. You guessed it. Let’s quote directly from Mrs. Sanchez as reported by the New York Post:
“Rick apologized to Jon Stewart (on Monday.) They had a good talk. Jon was gracious and called Rick ‘thin-skinned.’ He’s right. Rick feels horrible that in an effort to make a broader point about the media, his exhaustion from working 14 (hour) days for 2 (months) straight, caused him to mangle his thought process inartfully.”
Are we getting this? Of course we are.
Jon Stewart is the quarterback of Team Liberal when it comes to television entertainment. Rick Sanchez was a block-and-tackle liberal for Team Liberal, CNN News Division. In his “inartful” moment Sanchez mistakenly sacked Stewart, his liberal media teammate, with the bigot comment.
What would any sensible teammate do if he had just screwed up in such a fashion by sacking his own teammate? Why apologize, of course! And in this very revealing little flash of a media story, the curtain is pulled back just long enough for the rest of us to know that’s exactly what Sanchez did. He called up Jon Stewart and apologized. Stewart graciously accepted.
Why would he not? Sanchez is a teammate. They both spend their time before the cameras wearing the jersey with the big “L” on it. Although Jon Stewart does so unashamedly, Sanchez — and more importantly CNN — has to see if they can do this while still insisting they are about just-the-facts-ma’am straight news.
But what about an apology from Sanchez to Rush Limbaugh back when CNN was airing Sanchez’s flat-out untruth about Rush supporting slavery? We’re not talking here about any legally-induced on-air retraction. We’re talking about the simple, respectful gesture like the one Rick Sanchez made to Jon Stewart. A personal phone-call. An e-mail, even. A snail mail. Did any of these take place?
Let’s remember that Jon Stewart lost not a thing in this dust-up. He didn’t lose his show because Sanchez contributed to some stark, untruth that helped fuel an anti-Jon Stewart jihad. Nor did Stewart lose out on a business deal that meant something to him because of Rick Sanchez. On the contrary, Sanchez did add fuel to the bonfire that eventually burned Rush’s opportunity to be an owner of an NFL team — a chance that for any serious football fan is a dream come true.
Did Sanchez pick up the phone somewhere along the line and say what any person who had made such a serious mistake would say? Did he call Rush? Did he e-mail him? Snail mail? Did he have his wife go to Facebook to inform the world that he had made a terrible mistake, that he had called Rush to apologize — and maybe even offered to call the NFL Commissioner personally to correct the record?
Of course not. Is there anyone who thinks Rush — at this point in his life — expected to be treated any differently?
This small, seemingly insignificant incident of the Sanchez apology-call to Jon Stewart casts a spotlight yet again on what millions of Americans know to be the reality of the so-called mainstream media today.
Remember what Mrs. Sanchez said her husband was really trying to do? She said he was engaged “in an effort to make a broader point about the media.”
Not to worry, Mrs. Sanchez. By calling Jon Stewart and stiffing Rush Limbaugh, Rick Sanchez has indeed made his “broader point about the media.”
Which is exactly why Rush Limbaugh has an audience of twenty million people, Rick Sanchez is out of a job — and CNN has no audience.

"Which is exactly why Rush Limbaugh has an audience of twenty million people, Rick Sanchez is out of a job -- and CNN has no audience."
What does this tell you about what "everyone knows"?

People who don't like Rush fall into 3 categories:
1. People who don't listen to him, at least not more than once or twice, so they don't understand him. Mostly people just listening to lies and swallowing them whole like the baby food they require.
2. The few liberals who are actually somewhat intelligent who know he uncovers and demolishes their selfish motives and agendas.
3. The thin-skinned Benedict Arnold-type Republicans who hate defending Rush from lies from their idiot friends.
ArtL| 10.7.10 @ 12:57PM
There are no 'actually somewhat intelligent' liberals. They're like bigfoot, or the chupacabra...they don't exist except in the nightmares of small children.
Kevin| 10.7.10 @ 2:18PM
Two points: First, there are intelligent liberals. It's just that there are different types of intelligence, and common sense is not one of the types of intelligence that liberals have. And second, bigfoots do exist. I've seen their tracks in Oregon, and my sister actually saw one in Northern California. Maybe a better comparison would be to use unicorns or fairies.

It's comments like this that further divide our nation. I am a liberal, and I am intelligent. I disagree with the conservative world view, but I understand why people might believe it, and I think there are intelligent conservatives. When we rise above base name-calling, we might be able to find some common ground and get good things done for the nation and the world.
AaronD| 10.12.10 @ 11:49PM

David W| 10.7.10 @ 1:14PM
Rush is definitely outspoken. Would I agree with everything he says? Since I rarely listen to him I’m not sure. However, the few times I have I have found myself agreeing more than disagreeing. If you want to see an “A” perhaps you can watch and listen to Rush’s counterparts on CNN (C. Matthews) and MSNBC (K. Olbermann) and E. Schultz (not sure which rock he is under). The few clips I’ve seen of them have almost made my jaw drop due to the unabashed and obvious and unashamed bias and, do I dare say, hatred they demonstrate against the unwashed millions. If they aren’t the best definition of an “A” I’m not sure who would be.
Rich Simpson | 10.7.10 @ 2:16PM

You could not possibly be a Rush listener. Like so many liberals, you go on what the liberal media wants you to hear. The point is: Liberals are too far left to be right.

Limbaugh said the following on his show:
"“Imagine we identify the gene – assuming that there is one, this is hypothetical – that will tell us prior to birth that a baby is going to be gay. Just like a baby is gonna be redheaded and freckled and maybe tend to be overweight and so we tell the parents that, and the parents say “Nope, don’t wanna give birth to that child, [it's] not gonna have a fair chance. Who wants to give birth to an overweight, freckle-faced redhead?” Bam. So we abort the kid.“Well, you add to this, let’s say we discover the gene that says the kid’s gonna be gay. How many parents, if they knew before the kid was gonna be born, [that he] was gonna be gay, they would take the pregnancy to term? Well, you don’t know but let’s say half of them said, “Oh, no, I don’t wanna do that to a kid.” [Then the] gay community finds out about this. The gay community would do the fastest 180 and become pro-life faster than anybody you’ve ever seen. … They’d be so against abortion if it was discovered that you could abort what you knew were gonna be gay babies.”
Ok, this proves that he's a homophobic racist and hate-peddler, let's just leave it at that.
Those who defend him, are just proving their own hate.

He he was saying the truth, then the Jews are pretty incompetent. You would think that these evil co-conspirators would have Obama spouting "I love Israel" and the UN saying "you evil evil terrorists, leave Israel alone." Perhaps you believe in the black choppers that are flying around the country, building hidden prisons for the political prisoners that the Jews will be imprisoning (okay, the prisons are probably there, but only to hold the insurance company CEOs who dare to question Obama's health care plan).

Most of us are mentally trapped to think Jewish. Actually, it is safe to say that virtually every mainstream publication or or other type of media organ is "nothing more than a screen to present chosen views." The great battle over the last century has been a battle for the mind of the Western peoples, i.e., non-Jewish Euros. The chosen won it by acquiring control over essentially the complete mainstream news, information, education and entertainment media of every type, and using that control to infuse and disseminate their message, agenda and worldview, their way of thinking, or rather the way they want us to think. Since at least the 1960s this campaign has been effectively complete. Since then they have shaped and controlled the minds of all but a seeming few of us in varying degree with almost no opposition or competition from any alternative worldview. So now most of us are mentally trapped in the box the chosen have made for us, which we have lived in all our lives. Only a few have managed to avoid it or escape it, or to even sometimes see outside of it, and so actually "think outside of the (Jewish) box."
What happened to Oliver Stone is a good case study. The Wall Street Journal reported this past summer that Stone said that “public opinion was focused on the Holocaust because of ‘Jewish domination of the media.’” Stone also said that the Jews “stay on top of every comment, the most powerful lobby in Washington. Israel has f—– up United States foreign policy for years.”
Like so many others before him, Stone groveled: “In trying to make a broader historical point about the range of atrocities the Germans committed against many people, I made a clumsy association about the Holocaust, for which I am sorry and I regret. Jews obviously do not control media or any other industry.”
Joe Sobran who died recently had this to say about Jewish media power:
“Jewish control of the major media in the media age makes the enforced silence both paradoxical and paralyzing. Survival in public life requires that you know all about it, but never refer to it. A hypocritical etiquette forces us to pretend that the Jews are powerless victims; and if you don’t respect their victimhood, they’ll destroy you. It’s a phenomenal display not of wickedness, really, but of fierce ethnocentrism, a sort of furtive racial superpatriotism.”
In 1996, reprinted in the May 27th issue of the New York Times, by Ari Shavit, an Israeli columnist describing his feelings on the killings of a hundred civilians in a military skirmish in southern Lebanon. Shavit wrote:
“We killed them out of a certain naive hubris. Believing with absolute certitude that now, with the White House, the Senate, and much of the American media in our hands, the lives of others do not count as much as our own.”
Peace.

Except for the mistaken implication that Jews act as a monolith, there was nothing antisemitic about your post. But being wrong doesn't make you an antisemite. It just makes you wrong.
For my part, whenever I find myself drawing conclusions based on premises that ascribe group-think to a racial group, I check my premises.
CB| 10.7.10 @ 11:20AM
So with your logic - the U.S. constitution is a sham when it directs the country to purport and support democracy worldwide. You give instances of Oliver Stone, a real humanitarian, him along with Jimmy Carter are so concerned about a level playing field. That, based on your logic, if any foreign affairs we maintain should surely be for appeasement - and you lack of knowledge indicates you feel strongly that if not for Israel, our relationships with other countries would be hunky dory...but yet you do not indicate anything about the so-called Palestinians who are in fact wretched refuse of Jordan and Syria. Nor do you indicate anything in regards to those who proudly exert anti-democracy policies, such as those Arab states who follow Sharia law. But yet, you quote the NY Times. BTW, I am Jewish; I am an AMERICAN, a VETERAN, a RETIRED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, and an adjunct professor at a state college. What have you done for your country? You state that you're not a antisemite (sic) - yet like your idol Oliver Stone, you try to hide it under the premise of foreign affairs, not religious persecution. Nice try - throw that at the HuffPost, not here!

Very well said.
It is interesting how every argument concerning Antisemitism jumps strait to the state of Israel. I see why it is so easy to blame the Jews for every act of self defense taken by a state surrounded by non other than those who seek its destruction. Weren't those the same arguments before the state of Israel even existed?
Michael Santomauro | 10.12.10 @ 12:38AM
My response to CB:
When country singer Dolly Parton told Vogue magazine a that her idea for a TV series about a country singer who becomes a gospel singer was turned down by Hollywood, she said that "everyone's afraid to touch anything that religious because most of the people out here are Jewish, and it's a frightening thing for them to promote Christianity." Truer words were never spoken.
But the ADL's chief troublemaker, Abe Foxman, immediately flew into one of his by-now tiresome furies and fired off a letter (which he made available to the news media, of course) to Dolly, scolding her for her innocent, honest comment. Foxman charged that Ms. Parton was invoking "the old antisemitic stereotype of Jewish control of Hollywood and hostility toward Christianity." He did not, however, directly contradict her or deny that Hollywood is controlled by his fellow Jews.
Being the nice person she is and knowing on which side her bread is buttered, Dolly dutifully and publicly apologized. She wrote to Foxman, "I regret that my words could have conjured up an impression of Jewish 'control' of Hollywood." Ever the arrogant, whining bully, Foxman accepted Ms. Parton's atonement, informing the media that is was a "refreshing capitulation." And the Hollywood lie lives on.
The Jewish denial that Hollywood is controlled by Jews is a great lie which can be attested to by anyone who has ever been associated with the film industry. Here is but one example.
In the late 1970s, New American View editor Victor Marchetti was working as a screenwriter on a spy movie. The producer, the director, Marchetti's agent and just about everyone else was Jewish. The proposed film was shopped around to several major studios. All the executives at all the studios with whom the project team met, with one exception -- Alan Ladd, Jr., then head of 20th Century Fox -- were Jewish.
At one meeting, at MCA-Universal (the studio which produced "Schindler's List"), the discussion was interrupted when a latecomer entered the studio head's office and took a seat next to Marchetti. He was a little, nondescript person who seemed out of place in the production meeting. The studio head halted the discussion and, turning to the little man, asked if he had any problems with the project after having read the treatment, an abbreviated script. The man, speaking with a foreign accent, said no, smiled at Marchetti, and departed.
"Who is he?" Marchetti asked the studio head.
The powerful Hollywood boss answered, "He's an Israeli. I just wanted to make sure there was nothing in this movie that he would not like." As the meeting continued, Marchetti began to count noses. Of the nine people in the office, Marchetti was the only non-Jew. It reminded him of many meetings he had attended in the publishing world in New York, where often he had been the only Gentile out of a dozen or more people discussing a book project.
Marchetti's Jewish agent leaned over and asked in a whisper, "What are you thinking about?"
"Everybody in the room is Jewish except me." "Forget about that," the agent said. "You just better hope that your Jews are smarter than the studio's. We're talking big bucks."
Since then, Marchetti has had several other involvements with the Hollywood movie crowd. It was always the same. The Jews were, and remain, in control of Tinsel Town. To say otherwise is to lie.
It is bad enough when a group representing less than three percent of the American population -- and many of whose members have a self-proclaimed first loyalty to a foreign nation -- should be in control of so many of America's cultural, financial and governmental institutions. But it is positively insulting for them to deny their influence and power -- particularly when they themselves are continually boasting in their own circles about their "overrepresentation" in these fields. And it is absolutely infuriating when this denial reaches the point that non-Jews are attacked by Jewish agitators and Zionist zealots for stating obvious facts and truth.
Most Americans have always been suspicious of too much power in too few hands. That's what the Constitution is all about. And that is why we have never trusted elitist groups which have tried to dictate to us. So, if we don't trust the old-line establishment, the old elite, why should we not be suspicious of the new elite -- the Jewish establishment -- and its excessive power in America.
Paglia guy| 10.7.10 @ 1:08PM
It's interesting> If the mainstream media is, for the most part, liberal, anti-Israel, big-government, collective, anti-individual, and it is also run by Jews....so what? Israel was also a big-time Socialist state for many years. Yet, despite all, Israel still has the support of most American conservatives and Christians. Hmmm...somehow that media "control" has not moved us to support "the Palestinians." I don't think it's the media's religious faith-by-birth that is prompting their worldview, Israel became a bad guy after 1967.
Chris| 10.7.10 @ 10:04AM
Oh, SNAP! This article is absolutely, straight-up correct! Rush NEVER made the comments attributed to him but, if you're a follower of MSM, you'll never hear the truth. (He did, however, call Obama a jacka$$! More truths! [smile])
Patrick| 10.7.10 @ 7:52PM
I pretty sure Rush did make the comments attributed to him, only they were (as usual) taken out of context. I was listening the day he made the slavery comments.
Demonstrating absurdity by being absurd has its downfalls - it's easy to edit out the context and play the BS sound bite to portray the opposite of the point he was making.
Rob Maloni| 10.8.10 @ 10:08AM
It's ALWAYS easier to lie to advance your argument; that's why Rush's soundbites are so abused by the left. It's also why we NEED people like Rush, Sean, Levin, et al, to constantly dig out the truth and let us see the side of the story the liberal media won't show us.
As far as I'm concerned, we conservatives should really start to think about suing these liars and fact twisters for libel. Let's make them accountable for the mistruths they spout.
ChrisB| 10.10.10 @ 7:29PM
Wow. Pretty amazing that you heard a comment that was not said. The media would have stated the day, hour, and minute this quote was said if he had said it. Maybe you were listening to an old speech of Robert Byrd's.
I do agree with your second statement though.

You have a big mistake there... Jesus as a Jew didn't offer any acceptance to any Gentile. He was just another Jewish teacher and did not consider the Gentiles as his target crowd. Jesus was not even a Christian. The time of his death was long before the birth of Christianity. Whoever sold this new religion to the Gentiles was Paul who didn't even know Jesus personally...

Isaac | 10.7.10 @ 10:39AM
Rush does not deserve and apology and his bid did not collapse because of Rick Sanchez and his show that most people don't watch.
Rush's bid collapsed because he rhetoric is less than impressive to anyone who is not near the extremities of far right. He paid for his notoriety.
It's not something an organization would choose to align itself with. In addition to that, African American players. protested.
This is a sad situation because John Stewart goes around calling everybody and asshole and then somebody calls him a bigot and it's bye bye. Where is freedom of speech? Obama has already been compared to Hitler, Stalin, you name it. People associated with mass genocide. This is silly, if he believes JS is a bigot so be it!

Actually, he got fired for essentially saying that jews control the media. Jeff Lord just ignores that so he can whine about how those mean old liberals treated Rush.
ArtL| 10.7.10 @ 1:08PM
Isaac, you're wrong when you infer that he's 'far right'. The media wants us to think that, but in reality Rush is 'solidly' right, not 'far' right. My mother was a prime example... had nothing good to say about Rush Limbaugh, but couldn't give a single example why. And when presented with his views, agreed with them all! Why then did she have this opinion of him? Because the only things she'd heard were inaccurate, intentional misrepresentations by the MSM.
That's why his bid failed... not because of his ACTUAL ideology... it failed because of his PERCEIVED ideology.

Wow, do you always write comments while you're highly inebriated, or does your computer lack both the backspace and delete key?
As for this:
"Where is freedom of speech? "
I didn't realize that Congress came in and fired Sanchez. I thought he was fired by his private employer? Gee, you learn something new every day.
Dr. Ripenstein| 10.8.10 @ 10:03AM
Isaac, you just proved what so many have said -- that libs are prejudiced. African Americans had NO reason to protest against Rush. He has never made any racist statements. You, like every other leftist anti-free speech lib, have never even listened to Rush and yet you want to defend a FALSE statement by Sanchez. Here we come, November 2.

I think you'll find that Sanchez was fired, not for what he said about Jon Stewart, but what he said about CNN management. Why would they see it as an antisemetic slight that he says management is Jewish? Isn't being in charge supposed to be a good thing? Why does everyone think they need to play victim all the time?
Arthur W. Devine, Jr. | 10.7.10 @ 11:02AM
I won't hold my breath for the libs to do right. Rush, even though the church is full, you are preaching to the choir, of which I am a member.
The good news: Once again, we are building a larger choir stand!

What goes around Rick comes around to bite you in the butt! I have to go, its almost noon and Rush is coming on! BYE RICK, enjoy your vacation.

The American people after November should begin to fire, disemploy, etc the liberal extremists' media vehicles of choice, ie NYT, CBS, ABC, NBC, Boston Globe, SF Chronical, etc [and especially MSNBC with their clowns Olbermann, Maddow, Reed, Matthews, O'Donnell,etc] by cancelling their subscriptions to their local newspapers and by not watching/viewing the TV brainwashing from the above listed sources!!!!!!

Dave| 10.7.10 @ 2:10PM
Even though I have listened to Rush for 20 years and I thank him for getting me to see the light, he is by no means far right. He talks in generalizations and never about the Constitution, or religion. But as long as he still gives the liberals fits I'm on his side.
GO RUSH!| 10.7.10 @ 2:30PM
Rush is not only Conservative, he's fearless! He was the only one who had the cajones to stand up to Obama in January, 2009.
I'm glad to see he's found happiness in his personal life.
jim| 10.7.10 @ 3:40PM
I am a solid podcasting Rush fan and I have been since 1989. I happen to like Sanchez and I say that in addition to listening to conservatives I like to listen to to liberals as well. I listen a bit to Ed , Mathews, Sanchez and the like. I think it is good to listen a bit to the other side to see how and what they are spinning. Sanchez, if you accept he is a liberal and can put up with it, was quite likable. The heat that is going his way is better deserved by people like Keith Olberman and Bill Marr (?)
I hope Sanchez gets back on the air.

I am going to forgive the language errors in the hopes that it is not your native tongue, but the ignorance of your post is simply mind-boggling. No, I am not Jewish. I just know an ignorant bigot when I see one.
Tony Ryals| 10.7.10 @ 3:57PM
If Jon Stewart could only read SEC filings he would know,or have known a decade ago, that Menachem Atzmon,convicted of money laundering in his own country of Israel,was behind the stock fraud called ICTS International that 'guarded' Logan Airport in Boston where the two planes that hit his WTC originated from according to U.S.government's own official story.Stewart isn't as stupid as he pretends....
Because I stopped watching CNN long ago due to its right wing pro
Honduras coup and Zionist bias I really don’t know who Rick Sanchez
is.However I do know that Wolf Blitzer and CNN covered up and didn’t
report a $100,000,000 litigation against them in Florida by British
Israeli money launderer Michael Zwebner all because I was posting on a
penny stock message board called ragingbull.com about Zwebner’s
connections to then Israeli PM Ehud Olmert and Zwebner who used a
small part of his stock fraud against Americans to hire gay
prostitutes or indulge in harrassment litigation of his critics such
as myself.
He even tried to divert attention from his stock frauds by pretending
I was ‘anti-semitic’ and claimed I was accusing him of eating a
cheeseburger with a milk shake rather than the fact that I was
accusing him and Ehud Olmert quite properly of stock fraud and money
laundering against Americans.I emailed Blitzer with the fact that I
Tony Ryals was the one posting as wolfblitzzer0 on ragingbull UCSY
message board where Zwebner using his connections to Olmert and then
Israeli President Moshe Katsav,(later accused of rape), to promote his
non existent ‘air water machines’ in order to defraud investors,even
lieing about selling them to American Coalition forces in Iraq and
the Israeli army.Yes he was making money for himself and his
hypocritical Zionist pals by luring investors however naive into
buying worthless shares(incorporated in Nevada he used for money
laundering in Lichtenstein,the Caymans and Israeli bank accounts etc.
and Olmert even wrote aletter in SEC’s UCSY filings claiming to have
visited Zwebner’s ‘Air Water Machine’ factory in Israel ! So I know
nothing about this Mr.Sanchez until now but plenty and all need to
about CNN,FoxNews and Jon Stewart to know he is closer to the truth
than they are or will ever hope to be.Wolf Blitzer and CNN covered up
and did damage control for Olmert rather than doing an investigation
into who was suing them for $100 million in Florida.And Fox ‘News’ has
had myriad Middle East and war ‘experts’ who have been involved in
stock fraud and money laundering as well such as Ollie North, Mansoor
Ijaz,Marc Ginsberg,etc.,etc.
The L.A.Times is welcome to contact me if they wish to do a real
journalistic investigation because CNN certainly won’t.Oh by the way
Lanny Davis who defended the Honduras’ coup leaders also defended the
mortgatage and stock fraud called Novastar that lied about its
worthless dividend paying ponzi scheme being a victim of ‘naked short
selling’.What ever became of them ?

CNN,Wolf Blitzer Cover Up of Michael Zwebner,Air Water Corp Fraud Helped Ehud Olmert To Israeli PM Office
by Tony Ryals | 07.04.2008
Long before Morris Talansky came on the radar screenin an Israel National Fraud Office investigation this past May,(do a google search ‘ehud olmert morris talansky global technologies ‘,CNN and Wolf Blitzer and their legal representative in Florida,Holland & Knight LLP,covered up Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s criminal ties to U.S. Air Water Corp stock fraud and to British Israeli con artist Michael Zwebner which enabled the corrupt Olmert to become Israeli PM in the first place !

If your beliefs are grounded in the truth, and you are secure in them, does it matter what someone else says? One can disagree with Mr. Limbaugh without resorting to pejoratives, the difficulty is of course then one would have to disagree with him based on the facts, which is no small feat. Rush's art is more than just offering a conservative opinion. He's uncanny at unearthing stories buried by the MSM and then sharing them on the air with his listeners, thus bringing to light what liberals would rather not have exposed. And then he rubs their noses in it. The firestorm that often follows is both proof of liberals' lack of conviction and insecurity. Like roaches, they run and hide when the lights are flipped on.

Everywhere I see the Rick Sanchez firing story, this DUI incident is missing, so I post web links to it since the news media does NOT add this about Ricky and the public should know and maybe, just maybe, the news media will include it
American Pundit Fighting | 10.7.10 @ 10:10PM
In the pundit world, noone ever apologizes for sleights made well after the fact. In the course of a career, even through the course of a year, a pundit would have dissed their rivals and ideological opposites dozens of times. From Mark Levin against Glenn Beck to Sam Seder against Ed Schultz.
The only time they apologize is if the internecine fighting costs the pundit his job (thus nothing to lose) and an apology is helpful PR for that present news cycle. It never happens.

Why doesn't someone have the balls to put together a huge debate amongst all these so called elitists and cut heads until the last one is standing. It's pretty easy to go on an edited show and look intelligent, I'd like to see some of these leftists get it on for 3 hours live like Rush and not come out looking like a complete fool. By the way, Rush does that every day. Our own President can't make an off the cuff soundbite, and he was supposedly the well spoken, educated candidate. An overhyped academic more like.

I don't think Rick was too tired. I think he was drunk. Just like the day he hit and killed that the pedestrian on his way home from a football game.
Dittohead| 10.11.10 @ 3:20AM
So what do we have here..two heroes of the right who have amassed millions of dollars pretending to educate the common man. You have an adulterous, egomaniac who tells his dittoheads not to listen to the news, he will tell you what to think. And twenty million people-a number made up by Rush so that he can say he's as popular as Oprah- are proud to be called dittoheads for repeating whatever he says. There will always be someone who takes advantage of the twenty million morons in the country and turn each viewer into one dollar.
The man doesn't have the intellectual capacity to face any prominent elitist on the left because he wants to remain the only elitist left standing on the right.
He has made a living hiding behind a wall of ignorant listeners. No one gets near Rush and his elite entourage.
When Rush goes away, someone will replace him because there will always be a need for an elite who pretends that everyone who listens to him is actually a smart person. Someone who will tell those who are too lazy to pick up a newspaper or listen to both sides of an issue, that despite what their teachers have told them, they are really smart. Pat them all on the head Rush and conceal that snicker as they make you richer.
