out of the country on his ass.  In fact, he and Anne Coulter are both
treasonous and both should be given a one-way ticket out of the
country permanently.

They're both clowns, with the accent on entertainment. Coulter's fairly
bright, but she takes the stance that best sells her shtick. Limbaugh,
well, he's a hypocrite, exaggerates and tries to do what Coulter (at
times) does with intelligence, but mainly yells louder (and over and
over and over again) to an audience that is more primed than ignorant
(in the true sense of the word). Facts are useless to either of them
unless they back up their *shtick.*

I doubt either one could care less what they're saying as long as they
can have an audience.

Right - if Rush really wanted to make a point, he doesn't need to keep
saying he wants Obama to fail - and yeah, I know he qualifies it but
the way he says it repeatedly belies his agenda - to make points with
the nutcases who truly believe that Obama is a communist or
something.





On this level, they remind me of has-been rock
stars that make it on rep and by replaying nothing but their old hits.

I saw/heard Coulter interviewed 'live' in Canada, and the versions that
were aired in Canada and the US were cut radically different. The
Canadian version made her sound patronizing, arrogant, mildly ironic,
rather obtuse about Canada and much less bitter than 'usual.' The US
version was spliced in such a way that she seemed to be a Messiah
preaching to the godless leftists. It was very, very amusing.

Limbaugh I've listened to perhaps a dozen times (in brief doses), and I
consider him to the Jim Jones of right-wing politics. He's frequently
wrong, misrepresents at will and has confused talking with farting. I
hesitate to pass any coherent judgment on his audience.

Just my .84% cent's worth
