      El Fathead's career hasn't detonated yet...

      But conservatism has.

        Could have something to do with the Leno appearance.

          What Leno appearance? There's nothing wrong with Leno's appearance. Sure, his head is kind of big...and his jaw. But he dresses nice. Is Limbaugh trying to look like Leno? ;>)

            Given your name I dont know if your being sarcastic or not, but assuming your not

            Rush is Leno's guest tonight on the Jay Leno Show. As far as I know that show tapes like every other show so Rush probibly had to be in California sometime around noonish PT, which would make it hard to do his show, since he needs that thingy to tell him what callers say since he went deaf after OD'ing.

      4:47 pm (ET) and we finally have the first clip off his show. MMFA is slacking ;)

      BTW, George, if you're reading this, I'm still waiting for my check.

        el Fathead has had literally hundreds, if not thousands, of what should have been, "career ending sound bytes."

        It's a tribute to the abject stupidity of his audience.

          I think short of using the n-word (which isn't necessary at this point, he's got so many code words that are even more effective), there can be no sound byte that will put an end to Limbaugh. His brand of hate is too lucrative. Even Beck appears invincible, despite losing scores of big-ticket advertisers.

            Nah, even if he did use the "N" word, he'd still have his fat paycheck. He would make a non-apology apology, and then claim that liberals made him say it, and we'd be off again. Aside from that, I'd be willing to bet, most of Rush's real fans (not the ones being paid to listen to him) wouldn't care one hoot if he used the N word on a daily basis.

      Is he talking about Media Matters? I assume so since the right thinks George Soros secretly runs it.

          Those gosh-darned documents proving that there is NO connection between Soros and MMFA messes up all those big reveals. Doesn't keep O'Reilly, Savage, et buds, from still making the connection, though.

      I think the detonation they are talking about is his heart if he eats any more cheeseburgers. If he eats/stresses anymore they are going to need to sew his shirt buttons on with fishing line.

        You shouldn't do that to the american flag. It' much more patriotic if you act like chuck norris and make tea stains on your flag.

          I know they don't complain about Scaife, and the other big pocketed conservatives who actually DO things on the conservative side of things that they "say" Soros does.

          I mean, the whole Arkansas Project to try and get dirt on Bill Clinton from day one was run by, or paid for by Scaife wasn't it?

      I'd love to believe in the "career-detonating sound byte" like I'd live to believe in the Great Pumpkin. But it ain't gonna happen. Rush can get hopelessly nasty and it will just help him with his target audience.
