...in the car on the way to the grocery store. I didn't hear a lot, but I remember thinking to myself that
the guy was pretty boring and inept--and that this must have been a last-minute substitution.

I know I'm a dreamer--but I'd like to think that an hour before he was supposed to go on-air, Limbaugh
heard the news that hundreds of advertisers were bailing on him, and then had a complete breakdown and
had to be carted away.

hehe

He claimed he didn't need a holiday, and would be laboring on Labor Day.

Then there was a commercial break (this was 6 months ago when he still had sponsors). And when he came back on the air, he was talking about something Obama had done several weeks before. I thought that seemed odd until he changed the subject and started talking about Obama's birthday party "last night".

Obama's birthday had been nearly a month earlier. And he had a big party. I remembered that.

Then I realized this show was a rerun! Rush was taking Labor Day off and they were playing a rerun show. Rush had LIED when he claimed he wasn't taking the Labor Day holiday off. And you know I was shocked to realize Rush was so dishonest.

And if the Rushbo takes another trip to Hispaniola, I hope some little señorita does this hemisphere's politics a world of good by concealing a little videocamera at the right place at the right time with a fully-charged battery, at least 8MBs of card memory, and then starts filming.

What's good for Ashton Kutcher would be good for David Limbaugh's older brother.

Also a nice list of who did advertise today: http://mediamatters.org/blog/201203120006

He kinda looks like a tool, and if he's subbing for Limpballs, he probably is

and a thick layer of fat before Limbaugh's fans come close to accepting him.
