      I expect FOX will be airing an apology to Rush any moment now.

        Being Limbaugh means never having to say you're wrong.

          Being Limbaugh means never having to say you're wrong.
          And being Limbaugh means always being able to say "What as that? I didn't hear you...."

      What you hate, Rush, is when you and the rest of your right wing cohorts are exposed as the racists you are.

      Time to take the gloves off Shep. Your time at Fox is near the end so go for it. Take on Rush and the rest of the gang at Fox. Your future will be bright. I for one salute you.

        I have said in the past that working at FOX is your last job.once they suck you in with leggy blondes and fantastic graphics, you lose your journalistic degree credentials.

      Rush, Rush...calm down. If you're in a bad mood take two or three Oxycontin. Then...wait an hour and take a few more.

      You know that always makes you feel better, don't you...?

        Even better, take 58 Oxycontin [80 milligram, the ones called "Green Monsters" on the street] , wash 'em down with a quart of your favorite liquor , and take a nice hot bath.

      His corruption has been revealed for all to see. He hasn't the character to accept it.

      Shep makes about 7 mil a year, he will be fine....he does two hours a day....

      Rush on the other hand is on his fourth wife....so cut his fortune in half a bunch of times and he may be hurting soon....That 250 mil becomes about 15 real quick after a few divorces....Although I am sure he is deeply invested in gold coins, so he has that to fall back on.

        Will he dare, or will FOX tighten his leash?

        Another little gem that Rachel Maddow mentioned last night was that Newt Gingrich helped Rupert Murdoch cut through some immigration red tape, when he first moved to this country. Is FOX carrying Republican water to repay that favor?

        I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but...

          While I have no doubt Gingrich pulled strings to help Murdoch, I also have no doubt Rupert is a true blue Republican of his own accord.

            You're probably right. Murdoch may have already had the idea to create a Republican Propaganda Network, and used that to recruit Newtie to his cause. Who knows?

              Waaaaay back when I had Dish TV (circa 1995?), there was a network whose name I don't remember, but I do know that they ran Newt Gingrich's old 'history lectures' and the like. I didn't see much of it... but I keep thinking it was a predecessor to Faux.

          I think that Shep is too principled. Fox can't let him stay if he's causing problems with Rush.

      Rush's allies going against the flow...the horror. Rush does not take facts into consideration, he is always right and truthful. I cringe for anyone who gives him more than ten seconds of their life.

      "Everybody knows what's going on here." Everybody except Limbaugh. Now will all those, especially those on the right, who criticized or condemned Breitbart now do the same with this pigfart? Not holding my breath.
