How Pathetic
Rush Limbaugh is an Entertainer.

When will liberals find a viable political platform? A platform that proclaims Republicans and Capitalism are evil is not a platform the American Public supports.

They did not present any platform other than Republicans are bad and we got screwed in the election.

The Liberals are against War with Iraq, yet they voted for it.

They oppose the Bush tax reform, yet they voted fot it.

The American people told the Liberals to get a pair.

Judging from your consistantly misanthropic output, you were improperly socialized. Whenever there's an opportunity to be meanspirited and hateful, you're johnny-on-the-spot.

You have a soulmate in Rush Limbaugh.

weak man....real weak. someone who logs over 5,000 hours a year on the radio is gonna make a mistake. and if brought to his attention, he will admit that mistake. their have been many (tilt and violin included, i'm sure)over the years who have trtied desperatly to discredit limbaugh, and his accuracy record is unparalleled by any mainstream newspaper. i believe it was the pew research center that found him to be around 98% accurate. he always sites his sources and will retract mistatements. i have heard him do it.







oh yeah, tilt's a liberal.....

Your so-called honesty is a poor excuse for acting like such an asshole, bacpac. I'll bet you're a scream at funerals. That bullshit you pulled when Maple was posting about her sister-in-law being in that wreck... I think you've got serious problems. I think you get some kind of sick thrill from abusing strangers on the Internet. Why do you do it?

Oh yeah, you're so Painfully Honest, LOL



Stratdewd, the problem is that it's not a rare occurance by any stretch. You guys complain all the time about the mainstream media slanting the news and then make excuses when someone on the Right tells a boldface lie!

Bacpac is AMAZING
Tilt, while I agree with you completely, I think we may be ignoring the Universal Law of Futility.

People will believe what they want, and there's not a whole lot anyone can do to change that. Bacpac will see himself as a truth-crusader and uncompromising ethical leader no matter how many people tell him otherwise.

You have to admire someone who has been able to make it through 40-some years without ever having to really face reality.

Good job Bacpac!

bacpac's analysis of the election results is spot on. Democrats have to take off their pink tutus and vote the way they believe.

I, too, agree that the Dems have to get a pair. They have no ideology left, and they sure as hell aren't looking out for the middle class and below. It's too bad for them that the Reps have the upper middle class and above covered. I'm sure they would love to cover that territory.

bacpac profiles like a management type.

When it comes to bullying people, he's Johnny On The Spot.

He possibly sees himself as an arbiter of accountability and honesty, where he is just a small man with unusual tendancies toward aggression and ambition with a nice touch of avarice.
Those who are attracted to positions of management tend to be Type-A go-to guys........and the money don't hurt, nee-thur.

And yes, the Democratic party needs to find some guts to stand up to the forces of Corporatism.

If I had the time I'd be interested to know how many times Tilt has taken a topic and turned it around to personally attack someone on the board instead of using facts?

"You get your 300 bucks back from Uncle Sugar while your friend BUTTCRACK gets 40 or 50 GRAND. He's Laughing All the Way to The BANK with the money You Spent buying his Book, LOLOL" ...TILT

Maybe I'm wrong but if I make 100,000 and actually take home 60,000... does that mean when John Doe who makes 1,000,000 should actually take home 60,000? Is that the fair way to deal out money? I'm confused?

FIT TO PRINT?

— Ben McGrath Ney Yorker

Aficionados of the Drudge Report may have noticed several striking headlines recently linking to stories from the World Tribune, an enterprise with a title as grand and ambitious as it is unfamiliar. One such story last week began, “U.S. intelligence suspects Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction have finally been located.” The apparent scoop—of stop-the-presses significance—was unsigned, and billed as a “special to World Tribune.com.” The Times, the Journal, and the Washington Post, meanwhile, not only got beat but failed even to acknowledge the news in the days that followed. What gives?

Not everyone ignored it: Rush Limbaugh, for instance. “There’s a piece in the World Tribune today—one of the papers in the United Kingdom—exactly as theorized on this program early on,” he said on his radio show. “It’s unconfirmed, but it’s a story that many of the weapons of mass destruction are at present buried in the Bekaa Valley of Lebanon.” Fox News, catering to a similar demographic, enlisted a military analyst that evening to discuss potential ramifications—military intervention in Lebanon?—on “The O’Reilly Factor.” According to the story, the weapons were probably delivered to the Bekaa Valley, a Hezbollah stronghold, in a caravan of tractor-trailers that was spotted leaving Iraq in January, two months before the war began, as part of a multimillion- dollar storage deal between Saddam Hussein and the Syrian government.

In fact, the World Tribune is not published in the United Kingdom, nor is it, to be precise, a newspaper. It is a Web site produced, more or less as a hobby, in Falls Church, Virginia, and is dedicated to the notion, as its mission statement explains, that “there is a market for news of the world and not just news of the weird.” (Nonetheless, the site includes a prominent feature, Cosmic Tribune, with an extraterrestrial focus, and it links to a Mafia journal called Gang Land News.) Its editor and publisher, Robert Morton, is an assistant managing editor at the Washington Times and a former “corporate editor” for News World Communications, the Times’ owner and the publishing arm of the Unification Church, led by the Reverend Sun Myung Moon. (Morton and his wife, Choon Boon, are themselves followers of the Reverend Moon.) Among the World Tribune’s other recent half-ignored scoops are that Al Qaeda claimed responsibility for last month’s blackout and that a North Korean defector stressed, during a meeting in July with White House officials, the need for a preëmptive military strike against Kim Jong Il.

Morton said last week via e-mail that he founded the site as an experiment, back in 1998, while serving as a media fellow at Stanford’s Hoover Institution, a conservative think tank. “I didn’t expect World Tribune.com to last for more than a few months,” Morton wrote, but now, despite having no dedicated staff (“Everyone involved with World Tribune.com has a day job”), the site receives more than a million page views per month. And, unlike the Washington Times, which has lost at least a billion dollars in its twenty-one-year existence, World Tribune.com, in concert with the subscription-driven weekly intelligence briefing Geostrategy-Direct.com (a partner site), has paid for itself.

The secret of its success seems to involve well-placed informants (“Over the years I have developed an informal, international network of sources and writers I can trust,” Morton said) and an emphasis on immediacy. Although Morton said, “We emphasize newspaper standards to counter the half-baked, unfiltered content on some online sites,” World Tribune.com more fairly qualifies as something between a newspaper and a rumor-mongering blog. Call it “blews.” In this sense, it is part of a loose network of mostly conservative sites—WorldNetDaily, Dr. Koontz’s National Security Message Board, debka File (produced by a pair of Jerusalem-based journalists thought to have moles in Israeli intelligence)—whose dispatches sometimes serve as the journalistic equivalent of trial balloons: a story may not be based on knowable facts, but it nevertheless may occasionally turn out to be right. (Much of the time, of course, it more closely resembles a Bat Boy update in the Weekly World News.)

Take the Lebanon story. National- security buffs may have recalled hearing similar reports as far back as late December (beginning with an accusation from Ariel Sharon), and cropping up again in the spring (via debka). The story never quite stuck, however, and as of the end of last week no major newspaper had seen fit to tell it. Bill Gertz, the Washington Times’ best-known reporter, is a columnist and contributing editor for Geostrategy-Direct.com and a member of the World Tribune advisory board. A few days after the Tribune’s Lebanon lead, Gertz allowed that he, too, had been hearing the reports for months but hadn’t written anything about it for the paper. “I’ve never been able to nail it down myself,” he said. He would presumably have encountered similar difficulties with the story, available at Cosmic Tribune, of the increase in observed U.F.O. activity as Mars neared.

Rush Berates the mother of a US Veteran

In a shockingly cruel manner Rush Limbaugh on his 9/10 show berated the mother of a US veteran. The woman had called in to tell Rush her son worked two jobs, neither of which offered health insurance. Her son’s baby had a severe medical condition, and grandma wanted Rush to know his ass kissing of the vaunted free enterprise system [our words not hers] did not provide much healthcare or any in her son’s case.
Limbaugh told her to let her son make his way. If he worked hard enough he could get health care. Rush suggested that the son should get his priorities straight suggesting that he might be spending money on unnecessary things. The kid has no spare money after food, rent, and the baby. Then bigmouth goes on to say we all have tough choices in life. YOU’VE NEVER HAD A TOUGH LIFE RUSH SO HOW THE HELL WOULD YOU KNOW? Rush proceeded to hang up on the poor women using his normal excuse of a technical problem. Funny how those problems only happen when Limbaugh can’t handle a caller.
