Talk radio.



Radio is the system used. Everything people say is a form of Talk, so doesn't quite describe it. Hate porn describes the purpose and type of speech.

He was the most successful radio show host in American history. If he sat on your side of the aisle, you would have adored him. Let’s be honest.


But he would never be allowed to sit on my side of the aisle. Because we don’t celebrate the death of people from AIDS over here.

+1 We also know how birth control pills work and don’t shame women for using them.


He didn’t shame her for using the pill. He shamed her for demanding others pay for it.

That’s CRAP and you know it. Go back and look at what he said about her for weeks on end. When she testified about her friend who had to be on it due to it helping her endometriosis symptoms. You’re a lying sack.


I listened to Rush through all of it. I know I’m correct about this. I’ve been on the pill for medical reasons. It cost me $15/month per pack and they were often just given to me free by the handful from the doc.

What does it say about the college co-ed Susan Fluke [sic], who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex, what does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute. She wants to be paid to have sex. She's having so much sex she can't afford the contraception. She wants you and me and the taxpayers to pay her to have sex. What does that make us? We're the pimps. (interruption) The johns? We would be the johns? No! We're not the johns. (interruption) Yeah, that's right. Pimp's not the right word. Okay, so she's not a slut. She's "round heeled". I take it back.


Also this: “Feminazis...if we are going to pay for your contraceptives, and thus pay for you to have sex, we want something for it. We want you to post the videos online so we can all watch.”

Is there any word on where he is buried? It will become a rest stop if you know what I mean.

Florida honoring Rush Limbaugh by lowering flags to half-mast: DeSantis
By David Rutz | Fox News

i have an update on this thing that no one cares about but me:

Florida Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried (D) on Monday said that she will direct offices under her purview to disregard Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) order to lower flags to half-staff to commemorate the late conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh.

“Lowering to half-staff the flag of the United States of America is a sacred honor that pays respect to fallen heroes and patriots. It is not a partisan political tool. Therefore, I will notify all state offices under my direction to disregard the Governor's forthcoming order to lower flags for Mr. Limbaugh – because we will not celebrate hate speech, bigotry, and division,” Fried said in a statement Monday.

“Lowering the flag should always reflect unity, not division, and raising our standards, not lowering them,” she added. “Our flags will remain flying high to celebrate the American values of diversity, inclusion, and respect for all.”

Said it before and I’ll say it again:
The saddest thing about Limbaugh’s stage four cancer diagnosis, is that he didn’t get it in 1990.

I never wish death on anyone, but every now and then, I remember he's already said all the hateful things that will every come out of his mouth, and it makes me happy.

He's dead. No more opinions, no hot take on current events, no crass jollies. He'll never make another dime off his schtick -- his estate might, but he won't. His story is over, over, OVER.

That's the smile. Not that he is dead, but that his input is finished.

Roger Ailes was supposedly interred in an unmarked grave for this very reason. Only his family knows the location.

I was just reading about his wife. She’s only 44. Sometimes you gamble and it pays off.

Live your life in such a way that you don't have to be buried in an unmarked grave to prevent people from sh1tting on it.

I saw this and liked it. Fried is pretty clearly signaling a run for Governor.

As a Florida resident I also care. That's why I love this Orlando Weekly article on the lowering of the flags:

Or she’s just a normally aware human, as so many Republicans clearly are not.
