      But how does it compare to Rush going after OxyContin pills, or young boys in the Dominican Republic?

        Good point.
        Also, Limbaugh's listers are too stupid to relate his argument to what is happening with the Tea-baggers and the GOP Establishment!!

      "It's like the Sunni attacking the Shiite"

      Like they do EVERY DAY in Afghanistan & Iraq (hence why any centralized government has failed)?

      Of course Rush finds it confusing that people disagree on the left/liberal/Democrat side. The last time the Republicans criticized a hate-spewing, bigoted, right-wing polemicist like Limbaugh, I wasn't yet born, Obama wasn't a politician, and people were still writing speculative fiction about the 21st century Soviet Union.

      Why so angry, Rush...being married to a woman not agreeing with you?

        Apparently, the latest Mrs. Limbaugh finds Rush having to fantasize about Margaret Thatcher to become aroused for "date night" a wee bit disconcerting.

      What's it going to take for Brian Kilmeade to get some attention from MMFA? Here are a few choice soundbites from this morning's show:

      "We've got a hole in the Gulf of Mexico, but all we hear about is Reverend Wright. We've got two wars overseas, but it's all about race. Race, race, race. Why is this dominating the conversation? This is what the Obama Administration has given us!"

      "I don't see what's 'Racist' in signs that read 'Obama go back to Kenya.' When Bush was President, there were signs that read 'Bush go back to Texas.' All they mean is 'Go Home!'"

      Kilmeade is determined to out-Beck Beck, out-Limbaugh Limbaugh, and out-Hannity Hannity. Yet he barely gets a passing glance on this site. Not for lack of trying, at least.

        Wow. What's the viewership of FOX's morning show? Does MMFA go after Rush and Beck because of a bigger audience? I've seen Rachel and Keith go after Kilmeade, but maybe MMFA should publish his crap, too. Good call jjamele.

          Kilmeade would have two dozen threads here each morning if MMFA decided he was relevant enough. He spews the most incredibly disconnected BS in the shortest amount of time than anyone else I hear during the day. If Stephanie Miller would stop being such an insufferable, self-absorbed boor, I would stop tuning in.

      It could just be, Rush, that Democrats are willing to hold their own party to account instead of blindly insisting that everything "we" do is right....er, "correct", like the Republicans do. This Democratic administration has still done more in 18 months and 3 days than George Bush ever did to help our nation--everyone, not just the top 2%.

      It's like Limbaugh attacking the Nazis, the morbidly obese, the drug addicts, and the draft dodgers.

      By the way, it's interesting the way Limbaugh and these talk radio guys bash black people but grovel before the Israel lobby. They fear getting crossways with the latter.

        Reading your comments makes me wonder... are the right lapdogs because they repeat themselves so much.

        Limbaugh does not warrant serious discussion. He's a lying, hypocritical windbag.

        This from the guy who made a slight variation on the wording of his comment and then reposted it for fear that people would miss out on his brilliance. Thank you for highlighting how mature the right is, especially in an item about their leader comparing anyone to the left of him to a terrorist organization.
