Is it a good thing for a Dem to be featured on Rush?
Rush played Condi's words, but read Kerry's words in the most belligerant tone he could muster, and talked about how Condi put the panel in their place with the 3/4th of a vote thing. Amazing how Repubs can be such civil rights fans when it suits them. Love playin' that race card. How many times was MLK involked. He somewhere, just about spinnin' himself out of the grave.

Meanwhile, I like it when someone has Rush's undies in a bundle. I wonder if he will go after Boxer next. Haven't heard anyone tearing her a new one yet, but then I think her testimony came on too late for Rush.

2. I don't think anyone should give him the respect of appearing on his show

3. Not an appearance
Rush just used a recording of the hearing. Sorry to be unclear.

No, they don't.

7. I guess the question is: does it mean a Dem is getting under the RW skin
if Rush rants about them in particular.

I would think it a badge of honor for Rush to mention you by name. Means you're doing your job.

5. The good thing about shows like Limbaugh, et al....


in fact the ONLY good thing... is that, in many places, the only opportunity one has to hear left of center views is, ironically, when they are being critiqued/ridiculed by the host of the right wing talk show.

This was true everywhere until AirAmerica was born. Now some of us, at least, have options.

Without Limbaugh, etc, many people would NEVER hear a meaningful POV coming from left of center. The mainstream infotainment outlets ignore the left entirely.

Might have been Oscar Wilde: "The only thing worse than being talked about is ...........................................................
............. NOT being talked about."
