Did I Hear Right - Is CNN Really Going To Go Live To CPAC For Rush?......

[global1]

Are they serious? Are they really going to give Rush a platform for his traitorous talk?

Either they are doing this to rally the Repugs against President Obama or they want Rush to choke on his own words. Either way - I think it is very reckless of them to give Rush the stage.

1. They probably think it will make them money.

I hope they fail.

[Earth Bound Misfit]

2. It'$ all about the rating$

eta: They kill two birds with one self-loathing, hate inspiring, propaganda spewing stone: 1) Rally the "ba$e" 2) Rating$

[gratuitous]

3. He's the official voice of the Republican Party

Accept no substitutes! What Rush says, the Republican Party says. There is no daylight between them.

[snappyturtle]

4. C-SPAN announced this morning that Rush's speech will air tonight

at 8 ET(?). I think that's the right time for anyone interested. Well, he is the face of the repukes now, isn't he? I don't think this is reckless IF Rush is his normal self....help many to see him that might not hear his daily diatribes for what he is.

5. Will his speech cover some of his favorite topics

such as oxyconton and viagra. I watched Grover Norquist
yesterday and he did not say one word on his favorite
subject of money laundering. Couldn't they get a pass
for Abramoff? I'm sure his lecture on lobbying would have
kept them on the edge of their seats.

6. Well, so many people have said he is the voice of the Republican Party

Seeing as how Jindal bombed, McCain's batteries are running low, Palin's died altogether,
and Wurzelbacher's were never installed in the first place, who ELSE do they have?

7. geez, let's tear this country apart some more

those who voted for Obama and those who aren't blinded by hate may yet see how ridiculous and harmful these people are. I don't think they are doing themselves any favors.

8. I wish Mike Malloy would be on the air(at the same time), so I can enjoy his comments.

9. Liberal media my shiny new ashtabula. n/t

[kstewart33]

10. I hope so.

Rush should be on cable TV now, all day every day. The public needs a good, long, unfiltered look at this guy, the head of the Repub party. Let them see and listen to what this dying party has become.

[HughMoran]

12. I was thinking the same thing

Everybody I know (except the hardcore right-wing whackos) is sick of the negativity. Let him be his usual negative self, he'll simply whittle away at the 28% - not exactly a good thing for the Republican party.

11. CNN just ran a promo for live Pigboy coverage at 5pm ET

[geiger]

13. CNN is more like FOX than FOX these days

[spanone]

14. saturday afternoon there are about 7 people watching cnn....ru$hs' family no doubt

[get the red out]

15. He looks really sick lately

He could come off as a sweaty fool who forgot to take his medication. He is disgusting looking before he opens his mouth, and not just because of his obesity, he is the very image of gross.

I wonder how much alcohol he consumes since he had to give up his drug of choice?

[Deja Q]

16. Oxycontin withdrawl. I heard that, along with the certificate, he gets a big bucket o' oxycontin too
