Radio star approved as NFL owner

speechlesstx · Oct 14, 2009, 07:56 AM

No not Limbaugh, Fergie. While the media continuesto trash Limbaugh with false smears, the NFL has approved the smut singing, former meth addict Fergie as a partner with the Miami Dolphins.

I guess these media hacks were too busy musing on killing Rush and fact-checking SNL to have any objectivity. What's sad is even Keith Olbermann (when not referring to Michelle Malkin as a "mashed-up bag of meat with lipstick on it" ) sort of defended Rush's bid to buy the Rams.

Good to see the media on the ball and contributing to a more civil dialogue in this country.

Hello Everybody:

The above from a Jew who tells anti semitic jokes about Jews, and thinks it's ok. He also thinks the song, Barack the Magic Negro isn't racist...

Of course, he doesn't think the limp dude is racist. If he did, he'd have to point the finger at himself. We ALL know he ain't gonna do that...

But, since this isn't private correspondence between the Wolverine and myself, our readers will make the final determination.

Why should anyone have to go to the trouble of making up their own minds when they're being told what to believe? You might as well go ahead and just say it, ex.

Blogger Doctor Zero has it pegged:

Quote:

I’ll probably never be part of a consortium that purchases a football team, but I understand what it means to watch a dream bleed to death. My hopes and ambitions may be smaller than Rush Limbaugh’s, but they have exactly the same value to me. Whether those dreams are carved from pixels, paper, or platinum, they are equally priceless. It requires only a drop of the moral imagination utterly lacking in the people who slandered Limbaugh to guess what it feels like, when a man whose life revolves around words and ideas sees his dreams boiled away by words he didn’t speak, and ideas he has never held.

The events of the past week were about more than simply thwarting Limbaugh’s desire to buy into a football team. There was the naked greed of parasites like Al Sharpton, desperate to maintain his relevance in a world that has wisely stripped him of the power to destroy a man’s life with a phony rape allegation, or launch murderous riots. There was the blind personal hatred of Limbaugh, by people who long ago tired of watching him rewrite their plans for the part of America that refuses to submit to them. And, of course, this was the latest offensive in a bitter war against the ideas that Limbaugh has long served, as their most cheerful and effective defender. Limbaugh’s enemies in that war are angry because they’re frightened. They’re frightened because all of their estimates and projections said they should have been able to claim victory by now.

Backed up against the wall, and forced to admit the most damaging quotes used against Limbaugh were forgeries, his accusers are left stammering that he’s simply too “divisive” to be involved with ownership of an NFL team. What a bleak example of the totalitarian mindset! If you disagree with the approved ideas distributed by the collective, you’re “divisive” and unfit for membership in polite society. I suppose Limbaugh is saturated with divisiveness particles, whose half-life will extend for decades, but the warning to others is clear: rid yourselves of those “divisive” ideas and get with the program.

Perhaps the President could direct one of his many czars to prepare a list of certified “divisive” positions, and which aspects of society are closed to offenders. It would save people like David Checketts, the investor seeking to purchase the Rams, the time he wasted inviting Limbaugh to join his consortium. Imagine how much more convenient it would have been for Checketts, if he could have pulled up a handy whitehouse.gov web page and learned Rush was too divisive to be minority owner of a football team! The Homeland Security spectrum of terrorist alert levels could be used to measure divisiveness ratings. I’d be willing to give them an email address, so the system could send me a warning message when I approach Level Orange. What do you suppose the divisiveness rating for someone like Jeremiah Wright would be? He built a tidy personal fortune from his Ministry of Hate – would he be allowed to buy a stake in an NFL team?

Only the most gullible dupes, and people who rely on CNN for “news”, seriously think Rush Limbaugh is a racist. The dishonesty and cynicism behind dimwitted assertions that he wanted to buy an NFL team to role-play the life of a plantation owner is breathtaking. His accusers don’t really think he harbors some elusive racist demon, which he suppresses just long enough to become friends with Walter Williams, Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, and Tony Dungy. The people who read this crap should be at least as angry over the insult to their intelligence as Limbaugh is about the insult to his honor. This kind of weapons-grade stupidity is one of the things America can no longer afford.

Hello again, Steve:

You're telling me that, at the same time linking me to an article that told YOU what to think. You DO realize that I hardly read the crap you guys post. If I was interested in right wing propaganda, I know where to find it...

You also realize, don't you, that I seldom link you to stuff. That's because I make up my own mind. I don't need help.

LOL! Well done!

Perhaps that's why you misunderstand what we have said as often as you do.

And NK thought ex's was well done. And since they don't read what we post they'll never know how silly the look will they?

Now there's the difference between you and me, I can tell the difference between opinions, parody, news and satire. I can also discern which opinions are closer to reality based on facts and behavior. And get this, if you'd actually read what we post - including links to commentary, news, analysis and just plain facts - you might not be wrong so often.

And you've shown us that this website (Hot Air) is place where you believe the opinions are based on your reality. It certainly looks "fair and balanced" to me!

Now see, there you go trying to shape people's opinions of me again. First of all I have never pretended Hotair wasn't conservative, I mean seriously NK, I know which sites lean which way. IF you'd paid attention I've cited sources from all over the spectrum because unlike you, excon and Obama I don't care where it comes from if it's true. I don't diminish against the truth just because of the source, which makes me much more tolerant and open-minded than you.

Interesting since your whole 'raison d'etre" on this site is to constantly post your disdain for more than half of the population in your country. Excon and I don't do that, as well we help out at this site by answering questions in our field of knowledge; you do nothing of the sort, just the same types of posts day in day out to keep convincing yourself that your hatred of all things liberal is justified.
