Rush       got the bum's rush shortly after Roger Goodell, the commissioner of the       National Football League, hinted strongly that His Loudness was most       unwelcome.              Controversy had focused on Limbaugh's history of incendiary and offensive       remarks about race. Striking his patented tone of arrogant, bombastic       victimhood, Limbaugh sought to portray his ownership bid as an urgent matter       of great historical importance to the nation.              "This is not about the NFL, it's not about the St. Louis Rams, it's not       about me," he bellowed on his show, hours before being sacked. "This is       about the ongoing effort by the left in this country, wherever you find       them, in the media, the Democrat Party, or wherever, to destroy       conservatism, to prevent the mainstreaming of anyone who is prominent as a       conservative. Therefore, this is about the future of the United States of       America and what kind of country we're going to have."              No, it's not. It's about making a splash and getting attention. And it's       about the free market and individual rights-which I thought conservatives       were supposed to worship.                     Limbaugh had every right to join the group of would-be buyers headed by       sports mogul Dave Checketts, who already owns the St. Louis Blues hockey       team. And, let's be honest, Limbaugh would hardly have been the only       archconservative to own a piece of a pro football team. Given the       demographic profile of the average NFL franchise owner-white, male,       middle-aged to elderly, richer than Croesus, egocentric-I doubt that many of       Limbaugh's political and social views would be out of place. I mean, it's       not as if he were trying to join the board of the ACLU.              Š 2009, Washington Post Writers Group              Limbaugh thought his unintelligent babble could outflank people with a       little more intelligence than your average right wing halfwit that takes his       half truths as the gospel. Given the opportunity his demonic babble would of       ruined the NFL just like it has the country. As one progressive radio show       said, NFL, NOT FOR LIMBAUGH!!!              What the free market gives it can take as well.              Rush Limbaugh bears a striking resemblance to Herman Goering. Like Goering,       he, too, reaches for his gun when he hears the word culture. And, like       Goering, he should swallow a cyanide capsule so the world will at last be       rid of his corpulence and evil, homicidal stupidity              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
