Rush Limbaugh profile in NYT magazine

TS, I agree. The article was interesting and informative. As I pointed out earlier, he deserves every cent of that mongo contract. He provides a service that is in demand and is compensated accordingly. Believe it or not, this is one Democrat who gets capitalism, flaws and all.

And I've met Rush. He couldn't have been nicer.

That said, I detest the man and everything he stands for. He spouts the ideals of a hypocritical bully -- two traits I personally loathe among all others. If he had to defend those ideas in a debate with, say, Keith Olbermann just to pick someone off the top of my head, he'd get his ample ass handed to him.

 

Oh, I don't know. I know you're picking someone off the top of your head and all. I always wondered what it would've been like to see him and Molly Ivins at a table.

 

Maybe the ... what was it? ... $400M contract to do his show?

 

I wish Rush was around in my day.

We could have saved the millions we funneled through the slush fund to fund the dirty tricks by just writing Rush's script for him.

The silent majority eats that shit up.

 

I would pay to see that -- either on PPV TV or live.

Thanks for checking in, Tricky Dick.

 

Molly Ivins would have eaten him alive. Men against boys, figuratively speaking.

I'd have paid good money to watch that.

 

Limbaugh can't handle a non-screened live audience. Molly would have destroyed and humiliated him.
