1. Yeah, they love free speech as long as
it's hate speech. These Freepers would lay down their lives for your right to shout racial invectives on a street corner all day long, but woe unto you if you want to say one single word against the fascists who have destroyed our country.*

* I used to say "are destroying," but I think it's gone past that point now, sadly.

And welcome to DU!
:hi:

2. Thanks
I've been on about 3 years but I don't post much. I donated, however.

3. That's odd.
They said the opinions were evenly split 50/50 and yet the majority of the sample is for Rush. :shrug:

4. best comment
The real villain in this whole mess is ESPN, who hired Mr. Limbaugh. The person that hires a stripper for the church social should not be surprised when she takes her clothes off.


bam!

5. Logic
". Rush had the right to say what he did. He should be lauded for using his first amendment rights. Yet, apparently, there is a litmus test for the first amendment: only things liberals agree with are considered acceptable. Imagine the Dixie Chicks as Rush, and George Bush as Donovan McNabb. Sound familiar???"

So, let's treat Rush like they treated the Dixie Chicks: try to cance his public appearances, ban him from radio stations, accuse him of treason...
