Yo: Get a download of this....

http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/15980105/detail.html

Orwellingly Yurz Sez: Obviously, Mr. Limbaugh's spiel should be reported en masse to the FCC by any caring citizen. And complaints should be lodged with the owners of every affilate that carries
this demented man's talk show. Mr. Limbaugh is obviously directly
from Irresponsibility City. The man is ill, and needs help---not a
microphone.

I am ashamed that I live and worked in radio in the city in which Mr. Limbaugh rose to infamy: Sacramento, CA at KFBK. Still a right wing, hate outlet.

OY!

Hell, I just saw that now. It's late at night and I'm too tired to do anything but swear. At least this idiocy's out in the open. Maybe people will start seeing these a$$hOles for what they are?

Just imagine what would happen if riots did happen...would Limbaugh have to take some responsibility for that?

Inciting to riot is a serious charge involving lots of jail-time and, while I'm not anything like a lawyer (I take some comfort in that), it looks to me like that charge could just about be leveled now.

I wonder if he's stupid enough to keep proposing it? You'd have to be pretty stupid....

Even if Rush is that stupid (difficult to believe), there is bound to be someone in his production area who knows that saying stuff like that is far outside 1st amendment protections.

I know I won't lose any sleep if he gets charged with a crime.

From the article Limbos comments and then my input:

"There won't be riots at our convention," Limbaugh said of the Republican National Convention.
Limbo "We don't riot."
We have orginized military units destroy other countries that our president doesn't like.

Limbo "We don't burn our cars."
We burn their cars

Limbo "We don't burn down our houses."
We burn down their houses.

Limbo "We don't kill our children."
We kill their children.

Limbo "We don't do half the things the American left does."
No, We do it better!


If I knew then what I know now then I would know more now than I know.

YO: I noticed on Keith Olbermann's show this evening that saying something this far in advance about rioting in August may not be culpable. Buuuuuuuut. It was noted on the program that if this flabby asshole continues shouting such inflamatory rhetoric up to and just before the convention and there IS a riot, his ass may be up for legal grabs. I certainly hope there isn't a riot then, even it means that Roosh Limpbatt gets to keep exercising his First Amendment Rights. I'm think 'exercising' is not the right usage. I mean, ABUSING his First Amendment Rights. You might say that what Roosh says on his show is the downside of our having Free Speech in the USA, huh?
