A group of shills on a street corner are passing around a bag of shit. First shill: “whew this bag of shit smells really bad, here, you take it”. Right shill: “yea my nose hairs are curling, but I’m used to it”. Left shill: “it stinks to high fuckin heaven, but I’m willing to stand up wind”. Joe6Pack shill: “damn, that’s an expensive lookin bag of shit, but I don’t smell a thing”. O’HannaCoulter shill: “what the hell are you unbelieving morons talking about, this shit smells delicious”! A Journalist wanders into this strange gathering: “Hey there might be something dangerous in there, let’s open it”. Shill chorus: “NOOO”!
An extremist junkie with an open microphone has unprecedented influence and power over the political discourse of this nation. One junkie is the most polarizing figure in America today and major media gives us an endless parade of addiction experts, apologists and “good souls” willing to forgive. Well this is one fucking drug problem that actually does affect millions! Rush Limbaugh is getting a free ride from cowards.
Major media cowards are all too scared to: 1) Introduce Limbaugh to a very large and very diverse audience through his own words. 2) Engage people from left and right who understand "El Rushbo's" unique brand of Conservatism. 3) Bring to light Limbaugh’s very close ties to extremely prominent far right members of the Republican Party. 4) Ask his ”wife” why she didn’t know he was consuming hundreds of milligrams of oxicontin a day?
A junkie with millions listeners. Many of those millions believing and trusting in Rush Limbaugh - the man, the institution, the junkie. Limbaugh listeners vote 3-1 GOP. He's hummmming along, but he delivers.
Years of Rush’s, under the influence, misinforming and demonizing of the vaporous "liberal media" has very likely captured some extremists. Major media just doesn't have the courage to fight off the volume of attacks, both figuratively and possibly literally… from within, and from without... that would occur should they dissect Limbaugh’s hate filled, drug addled world.
FEAR will muzzle the incredibly huge and important story of an ambitious, wealthy, talented and powerful Right-Wing junkie, whose sto-honed daily monologues divide our Country and win elections for extremists.
Shame on all.
