Exactly, ynami. For Rush to bring up this non-issue seems to cry out "agenda".

this whole issue in Un-constitutional anyhow....
"Freedom of speach" means we can say what we want when ever the HELL we want.
If McNabb doesn't like it, He can blast Rush by calling him a name.
I think name calling is good then everyone knows where you stand...haha
Our whole society is getting so friggin' Politically sensative.
It's ridiculous!

Remember Rush’s mysterious hearing loss? One of the drugs he was allegedly using, Lorcet, has been linked to hearing loss and deafness. Can we get another lecture about liberals and their abrogation of personal responsibility?

Drug addiction is a serious health problem and I sincerely hope Limbaugh gets the help he needs, if this is at least partly true.

Snafu, it may well have been Joe Washington. I was just trying to remember and Alvin Garret seemd right to me, but I am definitley not sure...

Snafu - no-one is going to get sent to prison for what he said.

Of course he has freedom of speech - just as everyone else has the freedom to judge the man by his words, to find those words offensive, and to not want him on their sports show.

Dusty Baker stood by his stupid comments and dared them to fire him. I guess if the second story weren't brewing, Rush might have done the same thing.

Don't Cry for Rush
Oh come on snafu....that white male in he minority stuff is weak. My family is full of white working class people and we somehow have chosen to not feel sorry for ourselves. Yes...there is a double std sometimes and it sucks(Shaq, Allen Iverson, etc.) but don't make excuses for Limbaugh. Two wrongs don't make a right. Dusty Baker? Come on ....why did you get your feelings hurt for that comment?

Rush has been a fashionable racist and a pu$$y at that. If he did nothing wrong, if he had a valid point to make, then why did he cut and run? Bill Clinton criticized Sister Soulah once for her lyrics and stood up to the race card dealers when they tried to scare him down. Looks like Rush is a phony.....a big-mouth, fat, drug addicted, hypocritical wuss.

No biggie Tree,
I'm not 100% either, that was just who I remembered it being, you might be right.

Violin,
He may very well be a druggie. Who knows? Hey why don't you offer him a 8 ball!!! haha
I listen to Rush now and then, He seems to be a extreme on alot of issues, but he is so hardcore conservative, he must feel he needs to be that way to fight the hardcore extreme liberals.
I not a liberal and not a conservative, I'm in between. I like the middle of the road.

Violin, Sorry if your pissed at me for the "dumb ass" comment.
Go ahead you can call me a name back if you want :-)

This peice was written in 2000 when ABC was thinking of hiring Rush for Monday Night Football.

The authors pulled up a few choice Rush quotes:

As a young broadcaster in the 1970s, Limbaugh once told a black caller: "Take that bone out of your nose and call me back."

In a similar vein, here is Limbaugh's mocking take on the NAACP, a group with a ninety-year commitment to nonviolence: "The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies."

Once, in response to a caller arguing that black people need to be heard, Limbaugh responded: "They are 12 percent of the population. Who the hell cares?"

Hello, You g
aero, You Da Man!
"His fame so overshadowed his other achievements that by the time Cosell referred to the Washington Redskins' Alvin Garrett in 1983 as "that little monkey," it caused a furor. Many observers, deliberately or not, overlooked Cosell's sterling record on civil rights. The Rev. Joseph Lowery of the Southern Christian Leadership Council and others demanded an apology. Cosell being Cosell, none was forthcoming.""

I agree he is an extreme guy!

Just think of all the sh1t he was probably on back in the 70's. That was the golden era of drugs!

"I think what we've had here is a little social concern in radio. The media has been very desirous that a white, loutish ingrate do well", McNabb said. "There is a little hope invested in Limbaugh, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his show that he didn't deserve. Bill Clinton carried this team."

Had I known Rush was so into drugs back then, I might have made a special trip to Kansas City.

Ok, I just thought of calling my brother, who has the distinction of being one of the deepest fountains of useless trivia the world has ever known and asked him the identity question. He said Alvin Garret, so I am going with that as my final answer, Regis!

Why, yes it is :^)

aero said it was Alvin Garrett, I said it was Joe Washington, OK.

Then I found that quote to confirm aero's assertion.

I was wrong, aero was right.....deal with it....ha ha!!

Survey Says!

By the way, folks, this is a fun thread. Know what makes it fun? After having listened to Rush spout off for way too long, someone finally calls him on his own commentary. The guy has been swinging the pendulum way right for so long. Didn't he realize that it was going to swing back and hit him, eventually?

I think Slick Willy will reap his just rewards from history. There will always be the footnote, "Was a philanderer".

I wasn’t able to catch all of Rush’s keynote speech to the National Association of Broadcasters but I understand that he made no mention of the drug investigation. Maybe chili or another lawyer could comment but my understanding is this is an indication that the charges are at least partially true. If they were lies, he would likely say so immediately. If they are true he can’t really call his accusers liars without digging a deeper hole for himself. He wouldn’t come right out and admit anything without letting his lawyers work out a plea bargain first.

It was 1983 and the guy was Alvin Garrett, when on a kick off return Cossell said, "Boy, look at that little monkey go."

One sad note. Rush is a big Chiefs and Royals fan. That puts me at a close degree of separation from him. I guess I will have to take over his radio show once the neo-cons and chickenhawks figure out what kind of liability he is.
What should my firs show topic be? Little Dick?
