    Well financed and organized liberal groups calling advertisers to pull their advertising. Business is loath to be involved in controversy. This has become the rage after failing at actually trying to influence the debate.

    Hm, I see. I wouldn't say a man without a well funded radio show is 'silenced' but it's just a figure of speech right?

    No, it will fail, but Limbaugh provided the fodder for their outcry.

    What is happening in broadcasting because of this though is that anyone on radio is now fearful of making a mistake, which will happen at some point in time especially those on 3 hours a day. Since an apology is not acceptable by this crowd, only destruction is because that is their ultimate aim.

    For some reason the left fears constitutionally protected speech.

    On the other hand, they applaud people like Maher, one of Obama's biggest supporters and a donator of 1 million to his cause. A guy that calls women bimbos, boobs, tw*ts, and c*nts.

    The left hasn't failed at putting out opposition radio. Lefties don't listen to AM radio.

    People on the left, tend to be younger, and as a result, more likely to get thier news from the internet, or cable TV.

    Sites like HuffPo and mediamatters have much higher traffic than Drudge.

    most lefties that I have known don't spend a lot of time driving around in pickup trucks listening to the radio from noon to three on weekdays. Talk radio, for the most part, is aimed at the double digit IQ crowd. Lefties might stop in once in a while just for the sheer comedy value.

    The majority of Rush's audience is the same demographic that was the strongest for McCain in 2008......white males over 50 without college degrees.

    Lot's of retirees, and non working people listen to Rush. In spite of his foundationless claims that his audience is the smartest audience around.

    It's a very bad week for Rush. :sick:

    http://elections.nytimes.com/2008/results/president/exit-polls.html

    And to be precise...McCain's strongest demographic in the 2008 election were.

    Male
    White
    Over 60
    Protestant
    without college degrees
    attend church once a week
    lives in rural area or small town.

    Sounds just like you're average righty Politicalforum poster

    Hmmm, guess that means that Obama voters are

    Female
    Black
    18 to 29
    not High School Graduates
    Jewish
    From big cities

    That would explain a lot.

    What does that have to do with Rush. No link?

    I have one thousand PF credit points that says Obama will win another 4 . it's a straight-up wager , not a poker game , one thousand credits in a friendly wager . put your money where your big mouth is , or shut up .


    I have one thousand credits that says Obama will trash Mitty Mouse in November , put your pf money where your big mouth is , or shut up .


    I don't remember the Shultz comment , but I've got one thousand credit points that says Obama will trash' Mitty Mouse ' in November ... and it's there as a friendly bet , not a poker game , but it's an open wager for all .

    so , put your pf money where your big mouth is . or , just shut up .

    Never seen an uglier man in my life. The poor thing. No wonder he's in such a bad way. Did I mention he's FAT? He should forget about the viagra and lose weight. Don't know why he's obsessed with sex... he's too FAT for sex. Poor bastard could probably barely move his little finger let alone his **** from being so FAT.

    And he demeans feminists for the way they look...

    He's the ugliest thing I've ever seen. What a cretin and a wanker... if he could wank, that is... he's too FAT for even that!!

    It is time that Miss Fluke sue Lumbaugh for $30 Million. Don't accept Limbaugh's apologies.
