So, I listened to Rush today for about 1/2 hour - (You're gonna love it)

[jillan]

But, before you have me committed, let me explain why. Phoenix hasn't had progressive talk radio for about 2 months now, so I was in my car skimming the AM in hopes to find some sanity...instead I found Piggo.


Here's some highlights -

He was saying that the liberals are afraid of him and of Sarah Palin.



And he is screaming that the Repug party is NOT a big tent.
He was saying that Kemp was wrong (nothing like trashing one of your own immediately after he passes away) and he was saying that just like when Reagan was President, people came to him....people are going to start to come to back to them.

They are going to cater to their base, and this "listening tour" has got to stop.


:rofl: :rofl:

With this idiot as their leader, I say we'll have no problems in 2010.


:fistbump:

[tomm2thumbs]

1. you listened, so I don't have to. (bless you)

thanks for posting those notes

[jillan]

8. I was looking for some Hartmann .

I really, really miss having progressive talk on the am dial :(

[Eagle_Eye]

2. With this idiot as their leader, I say the repukes are doomed.

3. dupe

4. I heard they want him on a "teaching tour"...

:eyes:

[jillan]

6. For real? To teach what?

How to lie with a big fat cigar hanging out of your piehole?

[rasputin1952]

9. I caught about 10 min's of his show...

that's what he said...a teaching gig...go figure.

[jillan]

10. No progressive talk in your town either?

;)

[rasputin1952]

12. No...Glen Beck, Limbaugh, Beck again...and at night,,,

the Savage Weiner. Fortuantely, I get NPR...but then it goes Classical in the Evening after Fresh Air...:hi:

[Wednesdays]

20. Shoot, does progressive talk even exist anymore?

Aside from Internet radio, that is.

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. Like the Viagra-powered seminars in the Dominican Republic?

Heh, heh.

[rasputin1952]

13. He is a waste of skin...

:hi:

[calimary]

23. With sincere apologies to skin everywhere!

But I think what I'm really hoping is that he reigns on, leading his troops straight over the side of the cliff! Whatever hurts their cause and makes them look bad - I'm all for! What's bad for them is good for all the rest of us.

You go ahead, rushie dear! Keep stirring up that steadily dwindling band of dittomorons.

[rasputin1952]

24. From what I read, his #'s are down...

there will always be some who enjoy vitriol, but most figure he's just an egotistical windbag now...(soemthing the sest of knew years ago)...:hi:

[calimary]

25. Couldn't happen to a "nicer" guy.

He's preaching to a shrinking fan base. I guess THEY are the new "Coalition of the Wilting."

[brooklynite]

5. How did he reconcile Palin joining the GOP "rebranding" effort?

[jillan]

7. I don't know - but after listening to him, I bet Palin is only in that group

to stir up trouble.

Rush definitely does not want any part of that group.

[IDemo]

22. He called her "articulate"

Seen on a clip played on CountDown.

:rofl:

[Pakhet]

14. I noticed that last week

what happened to it?

[jillan]

15. They went broke.

And then Mike Newcomb was going to take over, but it never happened.

It is just insane that they can't get funding.

[MiniMe]

19. They spent it all on the pizza at their party

:rofl:

[Solomon]

16. I heard the fat fool

and broke out laughing. They are seriously deluded. He wants to run all the moderates out of the party. "Good riddance".

Earlier, Fred Gandy was on his show making the case that Limbaugh, Hannity, Ingraham and Levine need to take one for the party by running for office. They are the leaders of the party.

:rofl:

[jillan]

21. I was laughing too. I think that's why I kept listening -

I kept thinking how great it was for democrats that they are so clueless :)

[NorthCarolina]

17. I am SO happy that Rush has become the spokesperson for the GOP

How ironic that the GOP is now on the receiving end of the "Rush" effect.

[baldguy]

18. Deduct ¼ IQ point.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

26. Thanks for taking one for the team.

[Blue_In_AK]

27. Speaking of Sarah Palin, according to a recent Hays poll,

her combined approval in Alaska is down to 54% and her combined disapproval is 41.7 percent. 30 percent of her former fans no longer think she's cool, so we're making progress. Shannyn Moore has a good blog entry here http://shannynmoore.wordpress.com/2009/05/06/palin-popularity-plunging-in-polls/

[Clio the Leo]

28. I had a wingnut friend of mine accuse "us liberals" of being scared of Rush..

.... to which I responded "So then run him against Obama! I triple-dawg dare ya! WE WOULD LOVE THAT!!!"

And that response confused her and she walked away.

[Orsino]

29. Rush and Palin richly deserve each other.

If they continue to hitch themselves to each other's stars, we are guaranteed laughs for years to come.

So everybody act scared. :rofl:
