'What this says to me is that too many whites are getting away with drug use. Too many whites are getting away with drug sales. Too many whites are getting away with trafficking in this stuff. The answer to this disparity is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too.'

--Rush Limbaugh TV show (10/5/95)

He's a fucking talk show host. Say what you want about him and his recent comments, but he's got everyone's attention - and that's his job.

Sorry, we are all human. Rush isn't anything special. He not any better than all of the rest of us.

Someone mentioned Lumbergh?

I'm pretty sure his job isnt to lose 9 advertisers. :1orglaugh

I'm sure Rush intentionally makes provocative remarks to get ratings and attention, but he miscalculated on this one. It's gonna cost him far more than any gain.

Rather than being genuinely popular, it could be said that he's simply a beneficiary of clear channels getting the green light during the bush years to buy out hundreds of radio stations and not be labeled a monopoly in some markets. Clear channel are staunch republican donors or pasty white flab hole would be out on his ass years ago.

he should post here at GFY with the rest of us :thumbsup

NEWSFLASH - Rush Limbaugh is an entertainer, nothing more.

This is like talking about the economy and asking "where are all the Dane Cook supporters"

While true, the problem is we have far too many voters unable to make that distinction.

An entertainer that influences a lot or people. He's a genius at spreading hate for profit because it is entertaining. This is the beginning of the end for Rush, to bad it didnt happen when he accused Michael J Fox of faking Parkinson's or any of the other regurgitated diarrhea that pours out of his mouth that people such as yourself seem to enjoy so much.

That fat fuck still owes me from our last oxy deal.

.

I bet you can get an ad spot on his show for pretty damn good price right now

Ship that fat viagra eating fuck to Afghanistan.

Looks like Romney's in bed with a big fat slut...

http://cincinnati.com/blogs/tv/2012/...clear-channel/

There is no bigger prostitute than Rush's wife, nobody could actually love that tub of shit, obviously she's a money grubbing whore.

He had also said in the past that if you break the law and get caught you should own up to your mistake, go before the court, admit what you did and accept the punishment because you should take personal responsibilities for your actions.

Of course when the whole Oxycontin thing broke loose he immediately lawyered up and cut the best deal he could.

Insurance covers viagra. Shouldnt that be 'nuff said on the topic he was trying to create anyway? Why should a federally backed health program pay for his and every other mans sexual activity pills?

I read has been married 4 times so far... another republican success story

How do you know he influences people? That's an assumption right? A comedian doesnt convince people he's funny. Either people have that sense of humor or don't. Limbaugh isn't changing opinions - he entertains a crowd that shares his views. Just as Bill Mahre does.

fox news is 90% entertainment (opinion) but is treated as news

I wouldn't say 90%. But i would say that just like Limbaugh... they understand ratings which is why they dominate news.

Limbaugh and FOX News understand the difference between right brain and left brain thinking. They understand the two world views. They understand how to play them off each other. Even starting with the "Fair and Balanced" BS of an obviously Conservative network. They also understand that Liberals are going to react in a very visceral manner to anything they disagree with, whereas Conservatives are less emotionally driven. Ann Coulter, Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Glenn Beck etc etc etc are successful because they understand how to pander to one extreme with humor at the expense of the other, while also understanding that the other side is always so incensed, they are going to listen and talk about it nonstop anyway. That's what happens. The driving force behind their success is the fact that they can get people with political views and general world views that are polar opposite of each other to watch. Liberals are never successful in TV and radio doing the same thing, because they can't provoke that same reaction from the opposite side. They try and fail all the time.

BTW,... I don't think ANY mainstream news is anything more than "infotainment" anymore. A 24hr news cycle has brought with it, the complete downfall of news reporting in general

It's false to say there is a tit for tat between left wing and right wing media. But one of those two sides requires that there is a perception that there is. There is not much more to say about it. My opinion only.

He savaged Bill Clinton back in the Monica Lewinsky days and called his marriage a sham and said that Clinton was destroying the institution of marriage yet, apparently 3 different divorces it perfectly okay.

Rush is an entertainer shock jock and does a good job.

I think he is going to get a bonus this year because he just out did himself.

Rush advance marketing techniques...take notes fellas.

She's a capitalist?

I like what Gawker did to celebrate his fourth marriage. They flew this bad boy over the wedding at The Breakers.

Wife #4 is 26 years younger than Limbaugh, and only slightly older than the Georgetown University college law student whom Rush disparaged as a slut and prostitute.

ADG

Oh the captions I could come up with for that.

In reality we know she's waiting for him to OD, kick the bucket naturally or cheat on her so she can get the infidelity clause of their prenup.

I love watching Rachel Maddow make an example of his sheer lack of any understanding about female reproduction.

Missouri speaker backs Limbaugh for hall of fame

According to the Kansas City Star, Tilley said Monday that the ceremony will go on as planned and that he is ?honored? to have chosen Limbaugh to be included in the hall alongside Missourians such as Harry Truman, Mark Twain, Walter Cronkite and George Washington Carver.

I wonder how this woman was supposedly spending $3,000 on contraceptives, when you can get a months supply from Walgreens for $9?

Imagine if she was a conservative, what Bill Maher would say....



(p.s. This is NOT an endorsement of what limberger said... I'm just sayin).

Where does this $3000 number for her to buy contraceptives come from?

From her own lips....

Ahh there it is....... I was scrolling down to see a republican defend rush, nice. I agree because spending $3000 a month on birth control means she was fucking about ten guys a day and taking a birth control pill then a morning after (this is how it works right?)!! Its this simple slut, get a perscription and go to walgreens where you get birth control for $9, oh wait you can't get a perscription because your health care provider doesn't believe in it, oh well.

Guys like Rush, Sperbonzo and me know that only a slut needs birth control, and there is no reason a health care provider should be supplying it. You should buy it with giant black dildos and bondage gear at your local sex shop or buy it illegally from the maid (like Rush). $3000 on contraception... what happened to America, know how much oxy you can get for that kind of money?

The funny thing is for georgetown employees they cover it but for the students plan they dont. Insurance companies prefer to pay for BC its cheaper than kids.

Dude, his show has been hugely popular since 1988

The guy is a good entertainer for the talk show genre. It's just that simple. That's why he is so popular.

As far as Clear Channel goes...they need him more than he needs them. There is nobody even close to him in popularity.

He OWNS his company of course. And his show is syndicated across the country. He doesn't work for anybody and makes more money than God.

There has been a huge demand for him to move to Satellite radio for the last 5 years or so but he has refused to do it. I'm sure Sirius is drooling to have him.

As for the advertisers leaving...I think they are doing the right thing. He went over the line with what he said. He just took it too far. And he needs to get a wake up call on that.

That's why he backed down real quick and apologized for it. It was just a stupid move on his part.

But make no mistake...this isn't like some guy on t.v. pissing off a network exec and getting yanked. There is nobody to yank Limbaugh off the air. And if he finds his number of AM channels diminished...others will pick it up soon enough. And if that isn't good enough he'll go to Sirius and make even more money.

He has already publicly apologized. And with hundreds of millions of dollars per year at stake...you better believe he has already had private meetings with the OWNERS of those companies who have dropped him. My gut feeling is that they will quietly begin advertising again with him once this has all went away in a few weeks.

What! LOL!

The "health care provider" would be the girls gynecologist. And if there is even ONE gyno in the United States that doesn't prescribe birth control pills I would be very shocked. :1orglaugh

I've never heard of a woman anywhere in the U.S. that couldn't get cheap birth control pills. Matter of fact they give them away for free at health clinics for poor folks.

The uninformed on the Republican and Dems side of this non-issue is amazing.

Rick Santorum's religious insanity has definitely sparked some shit that is gonna insure Obama's re-election.

They shoulda stuck to the economy and stayed the hell away from trying to tell women what they can or can't do with their bodies.

looks like he gained back all the weight he had lost - hopefully he will die soon

I'm a Limbaugh supporter, but that doesn't mean I support every single comment he has ever made.

I think it's a fair statement that nobody is perfect. But the the critics sure seem to make perfection the standard when applied to conservatives, while allowing plenty of human leeway for liberals.

Oh stop really, this isnt the first fucked up thing he has done. And this girl is a private citizen, she isnt some public figure. and he kept on it for what 4 days straight. so it wasnt a oops.

She never said she was spending $3000 on contraceptives. She said "as you know, contraception can cost a woman over $3000 during lawschool".

She went on to say that the woman with the ovarian cysts who was repeatedly denied insurance coverage for her hormonal birth control medicine that her doctor prescribed to treat her growing tumor/cysts, who was gay by the way, was spending over $100 a month on the medicine herself and finally couldn't afford it. The cyst grew to tennis ball sized and she had to have her ovaries removed. She was 32. Her insurance company INSISTED that she wanted birth control pills for pregnancy prevention even though her doctors had sent in ALL the forms of proof that the insurance company require to prove it was for medical, not prevention purposes. Again, she was gay by the way.

Her testimony should be listened to without the leftist liberal label, but rather a "this is someones child we're talking about" label. Imagine that womans fathers reaction. To deny a proven effective medicine for a woman, someones precious child, while paying for grandpas BONER pills without question is truly perverted.

Amen :thumbsup

I agree...women should be able to get cheap birth control pills.

I don't agree that insurance companies should give them away for free...matter of fact i think that "insurance" should be what it was when I was younger...something you had in case you had a catastrophic illness or accident.

Not something you use everytime you get your birth control pills or some antibiotics for a sinus infection.

I think the govt. should butt out of people's personal lives....BUT if we are going to get more socialistic about health care in this country for the common good...then "insurance" (which is a total fucking scam that keeps all our medical costs and drugs higher than anywhere else in the world) should definitely cover birth control pills.

They are absolutely critical in maintaining a woman's hormone levels at a steady rate.

Last thing we want is a bunch of women who are unbalanced hormonally...it would be a living hell! lol

But seriously, it's 100% in women's best interests for their health.
As an added bonus, we all can get laid. heh-heh

When we were young, the doctor lived on the same block. A very different world.
good read from Harvard business journal not a liberal pub.

"Between the cost and the controversy, wouldn't it be better if we could sever the albatross of health care from around employers' necks, so they could just go back to focusing on what they do best ? improving their bottom lines? Let's take out the middle-man ? employers ? and simplify our system by admitting what is already evident to so many: between tax breaks, Medicare, and Medicaid, the government already has a heavy hand in providing health insurance. I know European-style systems aren't perfect ? but the perfect, as any executive knows, is the enemy of the good enough. And who could argue that our current system meets even that low bar?"

One of the major problems is that the government system allows for pharmaceutical companies to charge outrageous amounts for different medicines. Some of them are so expensive that the average person couldn't afford them without insurance.

An example. A friend of mine had to go on some kind of medicine that ended up costing $550 for a 30 days supply. With her insurance she paid a $10 co-pay. If she would have had to pay for it out of pocket it would have been pretty difficult for her to afford it month after month.

The whole system is rigged so that if you do have some kind of illness you almost have to carry a full insurance policy otherwise you will go bankrupt. It is crazy.

I see it first hand. I have asthma and since I am self employed I can't get insurance that will cover asthma related stuff. I pay for my medicine out of pocket. I take two different medications. The cheapest I can find one of them is $290 for a 30 day supply and the second one varies between $45 and $55 for about a 3 week supply depending on the brand. I can buy the exact same stuff online for a hell of a lot less. I pay $90 for a 60 days supply of the first medicine and $10 for the second. Exact same medicine. Same manufacturer. The only difference is that it comes from a country where the drug industry doesn't have the leadership in their back pocket and those leaders haven't sold out their citizens.
