THE LIMBAUGH CHALLENGE--DAY #3

Today is Day #3 of my attempt to free my mind from the brainwashing that it has been subjected to over the years by the liberal elite media. It has not been as easy as I had hoped.

I have uncovered a significant reason why Rush is so undeservedly ignored by liberal elitists in LA. He is not on during drive time. He is on 9-12 a.m.. All of the liberal elitists (I'll just use the acronym LE from here on) I know, myself included, are working at jobs that require that they focus too hard on what they are doing to be able to listen to the radio at that time.

Thank Allah, then, for RushLimbaugh.com. I can listen to the podcasts. What! They are only available to members? Well, then, sign me up. What! $6.95 per month! There is a recession going on! Screw that.

At least the transcripts are free. And time efficient--I can read faster than even Rush can talk. But there is a big downside. Much of what makes Rush great is the delivery--the timing, the inflection--and that is all lost in the transcript. Oh, well. When trying to free one's mind from the tyranny of the LE media, one does what one can.

And I have already learned a few things. Including the essence of what makes Rush the alpha right-wing talk radio guy. Listening to Sean Hannity, I learn that liberals are wrong, misguided--OK, downright stupid. But Rush drills down deeper, way way deeper. Actually, I have yet to encounter an instance of Rush insulting the LE intellect. No, he knows what is really the problem with LEs. They (we, for now--I'm still hanging on as an LE, but barely ) hate America. They (we) want to destroy America. They (we) want to take away our (their) liberties.

Which takes us to the biggest recent LE diss against Rush. The famous line, referring to the most anti-capitalist, anti-life president in our history--"I hope he fails." I, like most LEs, saw this as further proof that Rush is just an over-the-top asshole. But that was because I've been spoonfed by the LE media all this time, and just assumed that President Obama was trying to make this a better place. Wrong wrong wrong. President Obama--the LE of LEs--wants America to fail. Rush Limbaugh wants Obama to fail at making America fail, so therefore Rush wants America to succeed! See! Rush is really a good guy! My bad.
