He was very adept at dissecting a topic and did it in a humorous way. Leftists didn’t like him because he was so good at it for over three decades.<br /><br />Mark Steyn would be a good replacement but there is no substitute for Rush.<br />Kafirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10663195095750630774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20524196.post-24149822507984698652021-03-18T10:23:13.487-04:002021-03-18T10:23:13.487-04:00For the life o me I can't imagine who could fi...For the life o me I can't imagine who could fill Mr. Limbaugh's shoes, I suspect<br />Dan Bongino will do well enough. Can't wait for Curtis Sliwa to enter the fray. <br />I just remember that once Glen Beck and co. decided to head down the "yellow journalism controversy equals ad dollars" path, it took FIVE people to replace HIS tee vee "slot".<br /> And the principals in THAT "just another chitty-chat panel show" motif doesn't cut it well enough for me to set aside part of my day for it. <br /> CaptDMOnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20524196.post-3453041660547950302021-03-17T18:03:52.477-04:002021-03-17T18:03:52.477-04:00Rush, Breitbart, O’Keefe and many others were/are ...Rush, Breitbart, O’Keefe and many others were/are much needed champions of exposing the corruption in DC and politics in general. Most mainstream journalists are hacks and lackeys for the Democrat Party who are not worth paying attention to for even a second.<br /><br />I’m firmly in their camp as well as Trump’s. Players may not have liked Belichick but he produced championships. He also needed quality players much like Trump needed cabinet members and high level officials to achieve success. If they didn’t produce they were gone. He ran the WH like a business. It worked unlike what JoeBama is doing with his Marxist buddies to the country in just two months.<br /><br />I am an unapologetic fiscal and political conservative with a spine, not a RINO Republican. I’ve had it with the corrupt effete elite and won’t back down. What are the progressives going to do with 75 million like-minded citizens?<br />Kafirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10663195095750630774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20524196.post-20251482536774973542021-03-17T06:22:20.506-04:002021-03-17T06:22:20.506-04:00OK, we're just gonnahave to duke it out about ...OK, we're just gonnahave to duke it out about the distinction between Podium, and lectern. <br />And no, I don't CARE that years of ignorant "usage" by our friends in the <i>communications degree</i> consortium have convinced Merriam Websters to fob off as "usage".<br />*sigh* Why yes, I DID use to make custom lecterns, as well as podii.

A base that is not turned off by childish comments, a disregard for reality, and racism. Comments like:<br /><br />“Take that bone out of your nose and call me back.”<br /><br />“Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?”<br /><br />Airing the racist parody song - “Barack, the Magic Negro” <br /><br />He also said that when it came to rape, "no means yes if you know how to spot it," and called a Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke a "slut" for advocating for access to contraception. <br /><br />Intelligent? He claimed that “The coronavirus is the common cold, folks.”<br /><br />And he showed he was not a patriot when he rooted against the USA when the Wall Street Journal asked him to join others in writing 400 words on their hopes for Obama’s next four years. Limbaugh said he only needed four: “I hope he fails.”<br /><br />If that was the leader of a movement it speaks volumes about the movement.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02045130020607684069noreply@blogger.com
