Rush is a blowhard....But he's a true pioneer in talk radio......Gotta give him credit for that.....Guys like Savage, Levin, Hannity, etc. may not be around if it wasn't for Rush.
I don't listen to Rush, but I listen to Savage from time to time.Comment -

Rush Limbaugh is a pill popping junkie and a waste of time listening to.Comment -
Whenever I want to know who all the scumbags, assholes and hypocrites are I look for the "D" after their names. Tells me all I need to know. Rush loves it when all you lefties call him names. He laughs at you as I do. Nobody can tweek the "driveby media" like he can. Every day they have to take their head out of Obama's lap long enough to go out and bash him on something he said when he tweeks them on purpose. All you lefties can't even tell when he is tweeking you.Comment -
Rush Limbaugh is a winner and liberal democrats hate him for it because they are all MISERABLE FAILURES.
I consider Rush Limbaugh one of my heroes and the same goes for President Bush. Both of these wonderful men have enraged liberal democrats more than just about anybody else on the planet and for that they will always get my 100% support.
Just look at the comments in this thread from all the liberal democratic trash. At the very mention of his name, liberals go absolutely nuts. You have to love Rush Limbaugh and you can bet he really enjoyed last nights election.What Limbaugh said about black quarterbacks is absolutely true and its not a racist statement. McNabb has always been a mediocre quarterback and now his coach Mike Shanahan has called him out saying he wasn't fit enough to work a 2 minute drill.what was his quote about Black QB's?
Surprised he doesn't do a show with a white sheet on his head
IN order to be a great QB, you have to possess superior intelligence as well as God given gift of athletic ability. 99.9% of the population don't possess both qualities.
Joe Namath
Johnny Unitas
Joe Montana
Steve Young
Dan Marino
John Elway
Peyton Manning
Kurt Warner
This is a partial list of the NFL great quarterbacks and what specifically do all of them have in common?
If what you're saying is 100% truthful, then how can it be racist?Comment -
Who gives a fuk about Rush.
According to Rush himself, he had "20 million listeners per week" at his peak. (not now and not 20m a day, a week), most people thought this number was inflated...Fox news put him at 14 million listeners per week...
"Radio counts listeners in quarter hour increments. There are two ways of measuring them: “cume” and “average quarter hours” (AQH). They’re just what they sound like: total number of quarter-hours listened and average listeners in a quarter hour.
The numbers put out are weekly cume. The trick with cume is that if you listen for 15 minutes, you’re one listener. Listen for a half hour, you’re two. The full hour, four, and so on."
...So, some weeks 5%-8% (probably a much,much smaller number) of the population was listening at his peak. Big fukin deal.
Olbermann, Bill O'rielly, That lesbian chick on msnbc after Olbermann, are all the same too. On any given night less than 1% of the population (2.25 million during 7pm-9pm) is watching Fox news, even less are watching msnbc, but they all take themselves sooo seriously. It's a fuking joke.Comment -
Would the conservative republican trash act any different if someone started a thread calling Obama a hero?
Anyone who thinks either party, the democrats or republicans, are any more honest, less hypocritical, has higher morals etc. than the other party, is a complete fukin fool.Comment -
I don't remember Rush saying anything about "black QB's." I remember him saying something about one specific black QB named Donovan McNabb. And what he said was that McNabb was over-rated. And his rationale for McNabb being overrated was that the liberal white media fawned all over him because he was black.
It's basically the same exact comment Spike Lee made about Larry Bird. Lee said that if Bird had been black, he would have been "just another good basketball player." But because Bird was white, and played with some flair, he was hyped up to be bigger than he actually was.
And I think both are right to a degree. I think Rush is more right than Spike, not to say either of their thinking is flawed. Bird was a winner at every level. He wasn't just some flashy white player, like say, Pistol Pete Maravich. Bird took unknown Indiana St. to the NCAA title game. He led the Celtics to multiple titles. Maybe he's a bit over-rated. Maybe he's not one of the top 5 NBA players of all time. But he was G-R-E-A-T. A true Super-star.
McNabb on the other hand......
he showed flashes of brilliance, but was never consistent. He could never get it done when his team needed him most. True he never had a great group of wide-outs. But he always had a good O-line and a great D. But the media built him up as this phenomenal quarterback. Even though he never won anything. Truly great players, true stars, are revered by their fans, especially QB's. Elway, Brady, Manning, Montana, etc. Eagles fans did not revere McNabb. They put up with him. Granted, these are Philly fans, and they'd probably turn on their own mother if she started over-cooking the turkey every Thanksgiving, but the point remains. If your own fans don't even think you're great, how can you be great? Enter Rush, who sees that McNabb is obviously over-rated.
But why?
Well look at the evidence: his own fans don't even like him, but the sports writers/commentators seem to love him...what's the difference between Eagles fans and the sports-media? One group is full of blue-collar hardworking Americans, the other group is full of middle class college educated underachievers who make a living judging other people. One group is aware of the reality of their day to day existence and accepts it, the other lives in a world where they believe reality can be changed simply by the written word. And in that world, if you want something to be true, all you have to do is act and write like it's true, and then abracadabra it's true--at least in their minds. And this is how liberals end up becoming delusional and so far out of step with the real world the rest of us live in, and why they have to create absurd reasonings to explain the fact everyone else disagrees with them. (IE: you must be racist if you disagree with Obama)
So you've got Rush, with all that info in his head: the facts about McNabb's stats and his relationship with the Eagles fan base, and the trend of the media to often create something about of nothing, and that leads to his conclusion: McNabb is over-rated. And he's over-rated because la-la liberals want to see a black guy succeed at QB to dispel the notion that blacks can't succeed at QB.
That doesn't mean that Rush believes blacks can't be good QB's. It just means that Rush thinks McNabb isn't as good a QB as some people believe.Last edited by The Madcap; 11-03-10, 03:51 PM.No more of that talk, or I'll put the leeches on you.Comment -

He is one of the smarter men alive
A watchdog for countryComment -
Rush is average. He carries water for the Republican party and never strays. Some call that principle. I can admire that. But I don't agree. I believe, when it comes to politics, people should take each individual issue and make their decisions based upon facts and logic. I think there's a steady stream of talking points that he adheres to regardless of the topic. That makes him less interesting to me.Comment -
Rush is a hypocrite...Comment -
He is not a watchdog for this country, he is a watchdog for himself. The man could care less about the American public. He only cares about ratings and keeping ratings up. He will say whatever it takes to please his mindless fans cause thats what it takes to get ratings. Ratings equal more sponsers, sponsers equal money. Thats what Rush cares about money, he could give two shits about the people that listens to him.Comment -
I am an independent, but I just cant understand how the republicans are patting themselves on the back so much after this election.
I guess when you are used to getting your asses trounced, you consider anything a victory. But still, the dems have the white house and the senate, and now the Republicans have the house. Congrats. 1 out of 3 aint bad -- I guess.
Fact is, we still have pretty much a 2 party system which kind of guarantees this will happen. I mean the republican numbers couldnt just keep falling forever.
Seems like every since the "republican revoultion" of 1994, every election has equaled a republican ass whipping.
And now 16 years later, an election comes along and the republicans actually INCREASE their numbers for once, so that so called " liberal" media has been screaming YEAR OF THE REPUBLICAN for months now.
what about the 16 years between the rep. revolution and the year of the republican.
Funny how the "liberal" media never gave those years a name. It would have been the 16 years of republican ass whippings.
Anyway, I am glad to see divided gov't again as both parties suck ass, and congrats to all the republicans that your party now will actually control 1 out of the 3 branches of gov't ( I guess if you set your goals low enough anything can be considered a victory )Comment -
Rush is a very smart guy and brings an interesting perspective to the table. Enjoy listening to him and the comments about McNabb and black qb's were right on the money.Comment -
I love it that he is hated by the left so much and that all your panties get tied up.
what is funny the most is 99% of attacks are ...
- drug related
- marriage relate
as if he's the only motherfuker ever to have an drug problem and/or several marriages.
fact: he is a self made multimillionaire
fact: personal attacks are usually a poor attempt at discrediting a person rather than what he actually says or does.
Fact: He was right

Posting a picture of Rush Limbaugh in a leather jacket just may have become the gayest thing ever posted on SBR.
I say that knowing that JJ and PecosBill have pushed things to the edge a little bit too.Comment -
Liberals actually love Rush....in fact I think he is on the payroll. Can't think of anybody else who brings out the vote (for the "other side") like Rush. Anybody who writes a book titled, "The Way Things Ought to Be" has bigger problems than just popping oxy's. Anyone who would consider his opinion on anything other than the best way to obtain oxys illegally doesn't know their a-hole from an oxy. Rush's ideas are about as novel as "kids like candy". If you need Rush to tell you what you need to believe, your already too far gone. Megadittos.................. thats what I learned from listening to Rush. People think I'm smart when I say that.Comment -

Nobs--
The Republicans are patting themselves on the back not just for winning, but for TROUNCING the Dems. To them, and I tend to agree, the voters showing up for the GOP at the polls in such force nationwide is a tangible reinforcement of everything they've been saying about Obamacare, wasteful spending, and our economic policy. And you know how people like to celebrate when they are proven right.
The number of seats gained by the GOP in the House was RIDICULOUS. Total collapse by the Dems.
The GOP also picked up big numbers in the Senate, and the Dems were fortunate to hang on.
To put it in sports terms:
remember when the 2004 Redsox came back on the Yankees down 3-0 to win the ALCS and the World Series?
It's kind of like that. Something we've never seen before. That's why they are making such a big deal out of it.
From a sheer numbers standpoint, looking at it in historic terms, this election was a big frickin' deal.
Remember back in '06 when the country was so ticked at Bush and the GOP, and the Dems gave them an "ass-whuppin?" Well in that election the Dem's picked up around 30 seats in the House. The GOP just DOUBLED that.
If you look at the Senate, the GOP picked up Senate seats in both '02 and '04, followed by the Dems gaining some of them back in '06, and then getting back the rest and a couple more in '08. And now the GOP has gotten more than half of those back.
I don't know where you have this idea of the Republicans getting their "asses whupped" for so long, as the numbers don't agree, aside from '06-'08, and hey, that was a two year stretch.
I also don't see why you seem to think the people happy that the GOP did so well in this election are happy the way a sports fan is when his team wins the Superbowl. It isn't a matter of "Hey, we're the GOP, our side one once more, we are back in power."
It's more a reflection of "Thank God America woke herself up from the commie nightmare we've been living in for the last two years. Maybe now the folks in DC will stop acting crazy. Just because we don't like war doesn't mean we like socialism."
It isn't about the GOP being good, or even the Dems being bad. It's about who we are as Americans. What do we stand for? And this election signifies that we don't stand for socialism---at least not yet. It doesn't mean we want war-mongering capitalism, but it definitely means we don't want a European namby-pamby nanny state. It means we still believe in freedom. And the GOP is optimistic their guys can deliver it. We'll see.No more of that talk, or I'll put the leeches on you.Comment -
Now this is a funny post.
And it goes to the lack of historical perspective many "conservatives" have.
Conservatives love them some Ronald Reagan. They tell us how Reagan preached small gov't, fewer taxes, and fiscal responsibility. The problem is----that is myth.
Ronald Reagan didn't shrink the federal government, instead he created three new federal agencies and 13K new federal jobs.
Obama didn't create any new federal agencies---but conservatives sell this idea that Obama wants the Federal Gov't to take over everything.
Here is the kicker though.
Reagan tripled the federal deficit in his time in office------and in the fall of 1987, the deficit under Reagan was at that time---historically---the largest federal deficit in the history of the world----not just the US---that is, it was the largest deficit a democratically elected gov't ever had.
Now---Obama is faced with record deficits----and suddenly conservatives are in an uproar over it----using catch words like "socialism" and "small gov't" to make their case.
This is all perception folks. 20 years ago----Conservatives worshiped a man who created the largest deficits in the history of the world------today, they want him impeached.Comment -

Martin, everything you're saying is untrue. Either you are deliberately lying or you do not know how our government operates.
During the Reagan administrations, the democrats controlled congress. The president can't do any of the things you mentioned. Its congress that creates deficits along with everything else. The president can certainly stop most of the things that congress does but all the power in this country rests in the hands of congress.
In order to get things done, Reagan had to compromise with the democrats and I'm sure that included signing off on plenty of pork barrel spending that they insisted on. In return, the democrats allowed Reagan to defeat the Soviet Union and make the U.S. the strongest country in the world. In Reagan's mind, I'm sure he thought it was a trade off worth making:
Give the democrats the pork entitlement that they so desperately crave and in return they will allow the increases I want in defense spending to defeat Russia. Our country spent bucketloads of money on "Star Wars" and spent more money on the liberal democratic pork and hence massive deficits were created.
Barack Obama is NOT the one mainly responsible for our country's ballooning deficit. The blame is shared with Nancy Pelosi/Harry Reid and the rest of the liberal democrats in congress that gave Obama everything he wanted.
Now that the republicans have a strong majority in the house, hopefully they will do what they did under Clinton and put a major freeze on all the wasteful spending. What concerns me is that the republicans might trade liberal pork for conservative pork as nobody seems to care about our country's ballooning deficit. However, in any case, things are much better today than they were last week.Comment
