Is it just me or is Rush Limbaugh ,and Shawn Hanady the Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton of the Republican Party.
I'm a Republican but can't stand those two because they're doing more harm than good for the Republican Party.

Noooo, not at all.
Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity are political commentators; they are just there for entertainment. They should be truthful, but they've never pretended to be anything more than radio and TV "personalities." They don't pretend to speak for anyone else, at least not as an ideal.
Sharpton and Jackson, however, pretend to be much more than the bigoted rabble-rousers they really are. They act like men of God, voices of the people, representatives for black people. They get on TV and the radio the same as Rush and Hannity, but they make it seem as if they have "a message" to get out, instead of being truthful and saying they just want more power.
Jackson ran for president. Limbaugh just talks.

I was going to say that Sharpton and Jackson are the Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity (might want to make sure you spell their names correctly, dude) of the left. The big difference is, Sharpton and Jackson will take Democrats to task when they don't like what they're doing, while Limbaugh and Hannity are more likely to do a tap dance in a Minneapolis airport bathroom than criticize anything the Republican Party does.

Can you get a message to Rush? Tell him Raoul has his medicins and tell Mr Hannity I have his tickets for the Bangkok Long Time Businessman Relax Tour at our secret place.
Tell Al the soup is hot, and the Bean Pies are ready

I don't see where Rush and Sean are doing any harm. As biased as the media is, I'm glad they're out there to explain the other side of the story. Anyway, Sean is raising millions of dollars for college scholarships for children of lost soldiers.

Thank you for your statement. It is because of these two and others like them that I refuse to even consider a GOP Candidate for any office. To be very frank. If Jesus Christ were to personally appoint an emissary to run for office in this Country, and he had the endorsement of anyone from the GOP, I would not vote for the emissary.
Of course, Jesus Christ would never approve of anything done in the name of today's so-called Republican politicians. These people couldn't win an election running from the Cnservative Party of America so they hijacked the Republican Party and destroyed it.
Sadly, people calling themselves Republicans let them do it.

the way they defend every wrong of the GOP is so transparent and they are shills for the $$$. Bush could kick his grandmother down the stairs and they'd spin it so he was justified!

Well, you're certainly welcome to your opinion - as screwed us as that might be.
