I just can't believe how much political weight they are giving to a radio personality. Talk about shooting themselves in the foot!

He can say what ever he likes. No one is restraining Rush from broadcasting anything. His rights to free speech are not in any way abrdged. But let him suffer the consequences for WHAT he says. You are confusing Rush's freedom of speech with the freedom to DISSAGREE with what he says.
Poor little Rush. Conservatives have not quite yet destroyed the Constitution and it even protects lying weasels .

Rush has a right to say whatever he wants and others have a right to protest that speech. No one is suggesting governmental action to stop his speech. The First Amendment is only implicated if there is government action. It is a natural and probable consequence of the First Amendment that if you choose to exercise your free speech and spew hatred, the public will revolt against you.

I'm not mad about that, they are consistent, freedom of speech if you are a Liberal, otherwise, shut-up.
What is really getting me made was that he was talking about a guy who portrayed himself as a Ranger who was in Iraq, but who was actually kicked out after 44 days in the Army - a phony soldier. I heard the entire piece. Last night a Senator admitted that he only "read part of the piece".

Now do you believe me when I say that today's democratic liberals are heavily influenced by socialism? I am desperately trying to appeal to the young people who are being scammed by the democrats into believing that conservatives are destroying the Constitution. It is an old ploy right out of the communist / socialist handbook. Accuse your enemy of the actions you yourself are perpetrating. Quote them out of context. Accuse them of heinous crimes and repeat the lie over and over. Never enter into open debate but instead, personally attack and discredit your opposition. They must get the new Female Fuhrer installed at all costs.
Most people have no idea what horror awaits you if Hillary becomes president. Especially if the democrats control congress or have enough members in congress.

Rush has the right to say what he wants, and fools have the right to believe him. I have the right to not buy anything that is advertised by the media that airs his rabid BS.

Hey, I even think he should have the right to wear the globe and anchor on his lapel, to give the implication that he is a Marine veteran.

it's pretty impressive...
I've not seen one say he shouldn't be allowed on air personally...
in fact... I think he should be on air more... it's a great way to show what conservatives are all about...
