I'm Sure Rush Is Enjoying The Attention

Liberals are doing their most to make themselves look like fools as they try to silence Rush Limbaugh because of Rush's comments about a liberal tool who was used for political gain by the Democrats.
From the Washington Times:  Rush Limbaugh’s opponents are starting a radio campaign against him Thursday, seizing upon the radio star’s attack of a Georgetown law student as a “slut” to make a long-term effort aimed at weakening his business.
The liberal Media Matters for America is using a past campaign against Glenn Beck as a template. In Limbaugh, however, they’re going after bigger game. He’s already fighting back and the group’s stance has provoked concerns that an effort to silence someone for objectionable talk is in itself objectionable.
Media Matters is spending at least $100,000 for two advertisements that will run in eight cities.
The ads use Limbaugh’s own words about student Sandra Fluke, who told congressional Democrats that contraception should be paid for in health plans. Limbaugh, on his radio programs, suggested Fluke wanted to be paid to have sex, which made her a “slut” and a “prostitute.” In return for the money, he said Fluke should post videos of herself having sex. Under sharp criticism, Limbaugh later apologized.
In one of the anti-Limbaugh ads, listeners are urged to call the local station that carries Limbaugh to say “we don’t talk to women like that” in our city.

You know Limbaugh is just laughing at all of this attention.  Limbaugh is an attention seeking hound and he loves to stick to liberals at times like this and Limbaugh has tricked the liberals again into playing Limbaugh's game.
Do you honestly think these advertisements are actually going to work?  No, what it will probably do is increase Limbaugh's ratings at a time when they were probably stagnate.
Limbaugh is probably sitting back at his Palm Beach mansion laughing his butt off at the foolish behavior of the liberals.  All this has done is make liberals look foolish and petty by trying to deny free speech rights to Limbaugh.  And the number 1 fool in Nevada is Shelly Berkley, soon to be unemployed congress woman.

  1. Free speech rights are recognized by the government. As long as the government doesn't shut Limbaugh down, his free speech rights are not infringed upon. There is no right to be on the radio. If the marketplace shakes him out, it shakes him out. I'd imagine he'd be more likely to go the Dr. Laura/Howard Stern route, on satellite.

    1. His audience is way to big to go to satellite. And if I am not mistaken, it does not cost local stations any money to carry Limbaugh. The local stations get keep all local advertising money and Limbaugh gets to keep all the national advertisement money.
