Jeff Christie(AKA Rush)/Jeff Gannon- CONNEX?????

[Dr Fate]

Both are "journalists"- both have "worked" under fake names.

Rush/Christie has had 3- count em- 3 childless (sexless?) marriages. He was also "taught to dress" by his gay mentor.

Could it be that "Gannon" is not the first "journalist"/shill that has a hypocritical secret???

Arkush was not entirely complimentary. He criticizes Rush for not crediting Norm Woodruff for pulling the strings that got him into KFBK, which was where he was working when he met Ed McLaughlin. Norm gave Rush that last chance (he had been fired a number of times and fallen into obscurity while working in baseball). Norm taught Rush how to dress for success and presented him to KFBK at a key moment -- upon the firing of Morton Downey. Arkush says Rush fails to give Woodruff his just credit for his involvement in Rush's success, which if it ever does come will have to come posthomolously. Woodruff died in the mid 1980's of AIDS. He was gay.

1. I am unconvinced that Rush Limbaugh is gay (nt)

nt

[Trajan]

2. Is ? ...

Hmmmmm .. how bout 'was' ? ...

Seems to be some evidence of an arrest for indecency during his college days at Pitt .... I dont have it, but it has went around a few times ...

[zann725]

3. What year(s) was he at Pitt?

n/t

[Wheaty]

5. But..........

What self respecting human..male or female...could force themselves to have sex with rush...uggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh! forget self respecting even...ha!

[Dr Fate]

6. 3 childless(sexless?) marriages.

A strange silence about his mentor.

A "tough guy" image that seems a little too contrived.

I'd love to hear what Rush has to say about his shopping partner/mentor, Norm Woodruff.

I'm not convinced 100% either- but its not out of line to raise questions either. Rush needs to come clean about Woodruff and stop being a gay-bashing hypocrite.

7. Lots of couples don't have kids. So what.

Maybe he never wanted to have kids.

Maybe he wanted to during one or more of the marriages, but his wife during that marriage didn't.

[Dr Fate]

10. Or he's shooting blanks- or his 3 wives were all beards.

Your explanations seem a little off for a man who preaches about "the institution of marriage" and "family values" yet has 3 divorces & no chillrens.

Seems fishy to me.

15. In all those "ain't she cute?" anecdotes

he used to tell about Marta, he never mentioned that she'd been living in a separate million-dollar manse of her own since 2000.

[Dr Fate]

16. How bout that- mabey he had limp-dick from the Oxycontins...

...or perhaps he prefers the company of men- who knows- none of these explainations seem too wholesome, one way or the other.

4. There's never been a shortage of closeted, self hating gay men

on the hard right. The hypermasculinity, fascination for all things military, and deep seated loathing of women and disdain for their rights are very attractive to them.

"Christie" was Rush and was fired for soliciting gay sex in a park.

Eliot Sanders has come out and admitted he's one of Rush's old lovers.

It all fits. It's sad that some gay men so hate themselves that they ruin life for the rest of us, but there you have it.

[Eric J in MN]

8. Tell us more about Eliot Sanders. I never heard of him (nt)

11. I'll bet Rush hired Gannon as a hustler, then Jeff blackmailed him

Just a hunch. No proof.

[Dr Fate]

12. "Proof" never stopped Rush/Christie from innuendo.

I'll bet there is more to this than we ever imagined!!!!

[Shredr]

13. They're covering a lot of traacks right now

This goes deeper than we may ever know.

Didn't Rush brag that gannon had quoted him in the press conference -- then turned a 180 and denied ever saying what he was quoted as saying?

[Dr Fate]

14. Rush has hidden things from his fans before...

With his reputation as a drug-party boy, we know that he has hidden things in the past.

What else is he hiding?

[snippy]

17. I think this old story from his Kansas City days defines Rush.

"Jeff" was a prankster even then. He would ask someone for a 10 or 20 dollar bill to show them a trick. . . . He would then take the bill and stuff it down the back of his pants and wipe his ass with it. He then would attempt to give the bill back to it's owner and say, "You want this back?" He often picked up extra change doing that.

This story doesn't say anything about his sexual orientation , but it does define his values, ethics, integrity, and morality.

[Dr Fate]

18. Sounds like somthing he may have picked up at an All-Male strip club???

This story seems to get more & more bizzare.
