Folks, rarely does a caller who has opposing views get through Rush's expert call screeners. Rush Limbaugh wouldn't answer a callers question about the Iraq war, after the caller voiced his opinion that the war was a disaster and a mistake. Instead, Rush attacked the caller and said his question was silly and gibberish. Rush also tried to bully and intimidate him, by calling him a fraud and demanding to know what his "real name" was. Limbaugh had declared on a previously aired show that the Iraqi insurgents were - "probably in their last gasp over there or close to it"- March 14, 2006Rush Limbaugh likes to tell us he is the "great truth detector." Rush also claims to be an example of patriotism who exhibits a high degree of moral behavior. Rush Limbaugh has nothing to do with truth and morals, nor is he an example of patriotic behavior.Rush Limbaugh evaded serving his country at a time when it needed him. By getting his private doctor to state he had a pilonidal cyst on his bottom and needed a 4f (unfit for military service), Rush avoided the Vietnam war. Allegedly, he had either an "anal cyst" or a "ingrown hair follicle".Just imagine the dripping scorn and merciless sarcasm Rush would unleash, with the revelation that a prominent Democrat had skipped out of a war, over something like that.Friends, Rush Limbaugh is a highly paid propagandist and self-serving demagogue, in the service of a radical right-wing sect. Limbaugh regularly feeds his audience a diet of lies, disinformation, misstatements and distortions. He is part of a cabal of pundits, commentators, and "reporters"-call it the Limbaugh-Hannity-Drudge axis. This fifth column in the forth estate is made up of propagandists pretending to be journalists. Through multiple overlapping outlets covering radio, television, and the Internet, they relentlessly force-feed the American people right-wing talking points and ultraconservative dogma disguised as news and infotainment-24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.Even with the hot air and relentless rhetoric from propagandists such as Rush Limbaugh, events have landed President George W. Bush firmly out of favor with mainstream America. Still, Rush infers (of course) that everybody who doesn't approve of Bush's performance and policies, is some sort of unpatriotic-America-hating traitor.Clearly, Rush Limbaugh/Bush-Cheney, are disingenuous and dangerous extremists, with an agenda that conflicts with mainstream America.Limbaugh Whoopers http://mediamatters.org/issues...

I take that back I just looked at your argument about misscarriages the Iraq War has caused and that makes sense, sorry. You're right, good argument.

grazon, abortion is evil, but comparing it to the death of soldiers in iraq was just silly. Surely you with your great mind can find a better analogy. I would start with genocide because that is what we are talking about aren't we? Abortion is genocide no matter how you cut it. I will say that even though it is linked to a womans empowerment over her own body surely there is another way she can feel empowered right? Like for instance it won't hurt to simply practise a little self restraint.

A fetus is a person and abortion is BARBARIC. It is a defensless position and Roe v Wade should be overturned in the courts. However, I will go so far as to argue that it is the right of the states to enact legislation that would protect the rights of women to make their own decisions no matter how vile and repulsive I personally believe that abortion is. This should never have been an issue for the supreme court to begin with and we can end the division in our country with roe v wades demise.

Nah, you are in fact an idiot and people will always blame bush and the republiTARDS for the economy. YOU LOSE MORON try again.

Are you on drugs? or just retarded? You can't see that bush's spending has put USA in the crap? Bush has overspent by 400 billion per year and has the country in debt at 10 trillion. This after Clinton paid the debt down to almost zero.

lol no ones fighting for my freedom or yours in Iraq.and according to your last post abortion doesn't bother you a bit if the situation is right.

First order of business for Obama in his first term3 Supreme Court JusticesPeriod. End of statement.Restore the constitution and eliminate the unitary executive.

easygoer doing his level best to justify death. Let's see, our 'brave' soldiers killing innocent civilians = good because they are 'our' brave soldiers doing the killing of the (bad) people.Do I get that about right?

Hey guys guess who we can blame for the economic crisis around the world. Guess who we can blame for the 1.4 million jobs lost in the past 3 months. Guess who we can blame for screwing everyone over in a way exponentially greater than 2 Iraq Wars: The democrats. In less than a 3 month period, they've managed to top Bush's Iraq war in amount of dough spent or lost, destroyed more people's livelihoods than displaced Iraqi civilians, and still they have to galls to call Republicans idiots. LOL

yes i do, but if you are comparing 4000 deaths by brave soldiers fighting for our freedom and freeing the citizens of Iraq from a dictator to 4000 abortions daily then like I said you are spinning like a top......
