Look, everybody...

Limbaugh has to play to his audience. And his followers are not exactly "analytical", shall we say...

They tune in for their daily dose of angry, spittle-spewing nonsense and it helps them get through the day w/o having to actually interact with real people, who they hate.

Interesting. Since you denounced his audience for not being analytical, I trust that "analysis" of an anti-social personality is backed by peer reviewed research involving control groups and statistical significance?

Default sure enough

Enough evidence to support that theory has been seen, especially with the emphasis on class warfare and unqualified economic advisors predictions being so far off. Setting up 'enemies' to focus the believers has been another ploy. the scariest part if the loss of the watchdog news media which has turned administration propagandists.

Several obamaites have suggested riots may indeed result from opposition to Obamaworld efforts.

Rush has a mutilated imagination and his loyal followers hang on every word he says.

Fascinating and thought-provoking analysis of Limbaugh's comments wade52. Keep em coming. The single sentence sound bites show an economy with words.

I think most of us allow his comments to just settle to the dust-------we understand what he is, and what he panders to.

No need to get upset at anything he puts out any longer-----its showtime and fire up that premier radio network---pull up an easy chair, get out a snack, and get yourself ready for the daily dousers.

More mind blowing rebuttals to Limbaugh's rants. You really tear him a new one with this one Visvaldi.

Exactly. Obama and the UK rioters say exactly the same things. Obama is very close to stoking the same kind of riots here in the US.

Correct. And instead of a uniter and leader for president, we've got one who fans the flames of discontent.

Exactly. And Obama stokes that mindset.
