Rush Limbaugh, You Sanctimonious PIG!
Reporting from the blogosphere....
This is from the musings of Archie Levine: An angry particpant in democracy, lover of America, and rug-biting liberal.


<snip>

I want to talk about the continuing abusive treatment of AMERICANS by Rush Limbaugh every weekday from noon to three. That's right, Rush, I'm an American too. Stop abusing me.

Here is what he said, "Have you ever stopped to, uh, wonder if a media story is true...uh, people are dying over it? I mean, uh, this is, uh, this is an amazing thing...here we got a media story, people in Afghanistan and uh, other Arab countries are dying because of this report annnnnnd it turns out that, uh, the central assertion in this report has not even been confirmed. So--Well, I don't know if there's blood on Mr. Isikoff's hands or or not, he obviously was standing by his story here, but, uh, I just, I just, I wonder if people stop to think about this....here comes a media story and BAM, people die."

That's when my head nearly exploded.

How in the name of all that is holy can this windbag sit there behind his Golden EIB Microphone and call the "liberal media" to task for an as yet unsubstantiated report leading to the death of 8 Afghanis when the Bush Administration's now completely disproved allegations have led to the deaths of an estimated 100,000 Iraqi civilians--including women, and children?




This blog NEEDS to be added to the blog box.

1. This is a concerted effort...

to attack even semi-"centerist" news sources, as they did with CBS/Rather. Plus it distracts from the Downing Street Memo, among other things.

You know, the evil boogieman "librul media".
As Malloy says, "We are watching a police state in the making".

I agree.

:scared:

2. A local radio talk show guy said
that the liberal media was responsible for the deaths of many contractors and soldiers. He also said that anybody who could find a resemblance between dubya and Darth Vader needs help, though he doesn't plan to see the moive...Also, Jane Fonda must be playing a crazy conservative woman in Monster-in-Law, but he told his assistant that she'd have to go see it and report back. Chris Baker, 740 KTRH AM, Houston. I listen every now and then just to see what he's ranting about...HOUSTON NEEDS AAR!!!!!
