      I'm surprised they didn't start with this earlier, honestly. I guess I assumed they'd been looking at pictures of the two and assuming they were the same person.

      . . .albeit Rush is preaching to his FOX choir, the shame is there is no response from the liberal side.

      Common sense says the average person would consider this as static, noise, but linked with other resentments it forms an unhealthy brew

      all part of a coordinated offensive

        I would love to have on of the left wing radio hosts just come out and blast this lunatic to the wall, not that it would make any difference in the wingnut world but it would sure make me feel better. I think that Dems take all this crap without ever really responding - Call Limpy out and make him look like the retrobate he is!

      Imam Rush sounds like Jeremiad gone wrong.

        Mini,

        From what I can gather, Mr Limbaugh has made his living being a "Jeremiah".

      And before Rush got his coclear implant and was still trying to hide his deafness from the world, he sounded like Walter Brennan on crack.

      I'm sure he would take that as a compliment.

        He should. Walter Brennan on crack would have more class and make more sense than Rush Limbaugh on the best day of his life.

      I suppose he's saying that all non-white clergy of superior intelligence look alike to him...

      Again, I have yet to hear one right winger coherently tell me what was actually wrong with what Wright said. As a matter of fact, I don't know any right winger that heard anything Wright has said outside of the 20 second clip on youtube.

        It's the same thing with the Islamic faith. All they know about Islam is that a group of Muslim extremists attacked us on 9/11. They know nothing about the religion itself and its complexities. They even claim that the President might be a "secret" Muslim without realizing that is not even possible within the religion itself.

          AS are most Revs. But people were not angry about his spicy tone. It was the message that made them angry. Which is historically factual in context.

      Well they have one thing in common: Rush is against both of them, and he can't articulate why without lying about them.

      How so, Rush? Is this why you never debate anyone?
