| | *Your post caused me to remember why Air America failed: Liberals, in general, have no real sense of political humor! What you have failed to come to grips with is that Limbaugh is an entertainer first, political commentator second. His show, since I began listening to him in Sacramento, California, way before he was ever syndicated, has always been more about poking fun at ourselves, as well as Liberals. What others take as pomposity, is Rush "doing" a modified "Ted Baxter" impression. If you are too young to remember who Ted Baxter was, see the old Mary Tyler Moore show....the original one, set in Minneapolis. --<font color="#1E90FF" face="Comic Sans MS">[[User:TK|şŷŝôρ-₮K]]</font><sup><font color="DC143C">[[User_Talk:TK|Ṣρёаќǃ]]</font></sup> 04:48, 4 September 2007 (EDT) | | *Your post caused me to remember why Air America failed: Liberals, in general, have no real sense of political humor!

| | + | : TraJSmith, thanks for your comments and other edits. You make a valid point here, but TK rebuts it well. Rush is primarily an entertainer, and he seeks to build his audience among non-conservatives who like mockery. You seem to have taken to it yourself, and come up with mockery in response! |
| | + | : As intelligent as you are, TraJSmith, I'd encourage you look beyond entertainment for answers. A start might be to consider why you (probably) oppose allowing students to begin a class in public school with a prayer. There is little doubt that prayer is helpful to students, yet liberals oppose it with a vengeance in the classroom, the font of knowledge. That contradiction in liberal thought leads to many other contradictions and even deceit, I'm afraid.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 08:44, 4 September 2007 (EDT) |
