In the Land of the Free (to be racist), Rush Limbaugh is that and More.

In the good old days of radio, about 6 years ago and before, local and regional political talk show hosts were not allowed to promote racism on a stations public airwaves. They would be fired immediately.


When millions of dollars are dependent on a national talk host like Rush Limbaugh, who continually race baits his listeners, corporate radio stations simply defer to their bottom line. Rush denies he's said anything racist of course, which nowadays is enough to be considered part of an honest debate. Everything is relative now, and that's all it takes for group stations to keep the money machine oiled. But the example below no longer leaves any doubt, as Melissa Harris Lacewell points out and dissects the obvious. Keith Olbermann starts things off:

News Max: the Onion on Steriods.

I nearly did a "spit take" on my afternoon beer when I caught this recent News Max TV ad.



After touting such News Max contributors as right wing zanies Ben Stein, Dick Morris, Bill O'Reilly, Dr. Laura, Mike Reagan and David Limbaugh, the Fox News anchor for hire said "News Max gives you the other side of the story without the media spin."

You have to love the convoluted meaning and through the looking glass pizazz.

Limbaugh Shown as Hypocrite by CNBC's Conservative Mark Haines. Rush Trashed by Ditto Head

As the title suggests, Mark Haines slapped Limbaugh around like a rag doll, proving how easy it is to embarrass this freak. Contradictions, hypocrisy and bloviating is the wrong strategy to use if you're interested in winning a debate. I found out even more when I visited newsbusters.org, and tried to digest their bizarre take Limbaugh's disastrous defense, and the little secret they revealed to the country.
CNBC's Erin Burnett and Mark Haines. Mark was intent on pinning Rush down about what he felt was hypocritical for the conservative host to be pushing bipartisanship now when no such pressure was put upon President Bush by the right to work with Democrats. In reality, this was a false premise on Haines's part ... conservatives like Limbaugh aren't interested in bipartisanship.

I think newsbusters.org's Noel-Sheppard should stop helping Rush dig his hole even deeper. What a bragging point, "Conservatives aren't interested in bipartisanship." Confirmed. We'll keep that in mind Noel/Rush. Watch conservative Haines smoke Rush with unmistakable ease.



The Washington Post past along these two polls:

In newly-released data from the Pew Research Center, 62 percent of Americans polled had a favorable opinion of the Democratic Party, while far fewer, 40 percent, felt positively toward the GOP. The 22-point Democratic advantage is the largest recorded by Pew, and surpasses the 17-point edge the Republican Party had when it gained control of Congress in 1995.

Gallup data from last year indicate how widespread the Democratic advantage has become. Looking at the numbers of Democrats and Republicans in each state (not counting those nonpartisans who "lean" one way or the other), Gallup found Democrats had double-digit advantages in 24 states, the GOP just four.
