@SpanishEyez37 "Well maybe he should break out the checkbook and donate to Haiti or shut his piehole."
Considering he is taxed in the U.S. highest tax bracket he is donating through his tax dollars. $400 million over 8 years is alot of taxes! The top 25% of income earners pay 86% of the taxes in the U.S.
When the U.S. gives $100 million dollars (which is $99 million more than China gave BTW) that's money from U.S. tax payers.

@guest I'd love some examples of Limbaugh preaching against scumbag drug users. Also people who have a drug addiction regardless of the reason aren't exactly proud of it and aren't very forthcoming regarding their addiction. Why does that surprise you? I would do my best to conceal it to.

@zurcronium so many fallacies in your statements. I do have one question first though why do liberals have a love for playing with peoples names in this case "Drugs Limbaugh" "Faux News" etc. it comes off as petty and childish.
Limbaugh was prescribed Oxycontin due to back pain and like many people became addicted to them. He admitted it like a man and got help for it. He also lost most of his hearing and needs to use a cochlear implant to hear. Do you really think he wanted that? Where is the compassion that liberals claim to have? the man made a mistake he like you is not infallible.
Regarding his weight you are wrong again but that probably won't prevent you from spouting more false accusations on this forum. He was quite heavy most of his life and through the time he was oxycontin. Last year he made some lifestyle adjustments and has dropped a considerable amount of weight. It is telling that you would make inflammatory statements about somebody that you have no clue about.
I still fail to see where Limbaugh is racist. Surely no self respecting racist would hire an African American to be the producer of his show. Also when Rush is out often his fill in is Walter E Williams who is a brilliant econ professor who is.......gasp ........an African American! Why would a racist choose a black man as his fill in and employ one to produce his show. Liberals have race on the brain and think nothing of tossing the term "racist" around and you are no exception.

@Hehehohohaha
I am still at a loss as to what his "lie" was. The funny thing is due to your unwillingness to "fully understand" all the nuance in Limbaugh's "media tweak" and yet still comment on it you kind of fell victim to it. It's quite something to watch.

@dontknockit I think I am going to have to bow out of this conversation after this as the level of misinformation regarding the topic at hand is staggering. You say "Now is not the time to say that giving to Haiti has done no good, therefore, don't give now"
He did not say "don't give now" what he said was don't do so through the government. Before forming strong opinions on any given topic it is wise practice to concern yourself with facts beforehand.

@skipthesong I am curious how do you know the demographics of Rush's listenership? His program director is an African American but that is besides the point. What does race have to do with it? That is an odd way of thinking. I am white does that mean I shouldn't listen to the message of lets say a Chris Gardner?
I would ask you to watch his cpac speech on youtube with an open mind. It is beyond me how somebody could watch that and come away with a negative feeling either towards him or towards the message. I never fully understood why some people have such a problem with conservative principles as a whole.
That speech can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrdmRBurBO8 give it a watch its a year old he's not pretty to look at. Pretend he's a non white man delivering that same message and please tell me if you take issue with his statements.

@skipthesong I listen to Rush Limbaugh through this wonderful thing called the internet. It is amazing! you should check it out.....oh wait.
You didn't think Rush Limbaugh made money? He us currently enjoying a $400 million contract good through 2016 with a $100 million signing bonus. He is a self made man and while one might and often do disagree with his politics, the life he has made due to his own efforts is admirable.

@Hehehohohaha again you fail to fully understand the "media tweak"
@zurcronium Rush Limbaugh has lost a considerable amount of weight perhaps you could resort to a different attack on his appearance now that one is no longer valid.
Large sums of money has been given to Haiti in the past and it still is a poverty stricken wasteland, the situation never improves. Rounding up money is probably not the answer when it won't get to where it needs to be anyways. But perhaps a lesson can be learned from this. Dictators = bad Democracy and Capitalism = good.

Hehehohohaha what did he lie about? he lies to get ratings? that doesn't even make sense and is a bit insulting considering he has a rather large listening audience. Are you saying that many people enjoy being lied so much that they will tune in day after day?
I'd love some specifics though because anybody can just accuse another of lying but it means very little without exact examples. You disagreeing with his views does not make him a liar.

As somebody who listens to Rush everyday I think it is funny that he does what he calls the "media tweak of the day" and he says something outlandish to see if the liberal news networks run with it.........and they take the bait everytime.

rajakumar that is interesting logic. The U.S. also contributed mass amounts of aid to Thailand during the typhoon that happened there. According to your logic somebody else should have led those efforts. I hear alot about Venezuela trying to be a power player they even had one U.S. senator praising Chavez. They are a mere 870 miles from Haiti....where are they? where is Cuba? I think the missing component here is capitalism if it were present would Haiti have been better equipped to deal with a disaster such as an earthquake? I say yes as they are way below the average on the index of economic freedom. In case you are not up to speed on such things they are ranked #147 even way behind countries like Rwanda Ethiopia.
With air travel as efficient as it is nowadays proximity is no excuse for not helping. People love to bash the U.S. but if there is ever a day when it goes away man please be careful for what you all wished for as any republic is fragile. China saw a 9% economic increase and they contributed a paltry 1 million dollars. Pathetic.

It is amazing that even in a down economy the American people come through again and are still bashed. China gave 1 million dollars! Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie contributed that much between just the two of them. Next time I say all Americans citizens halt their donations and aid....then who will step up? China? clearly not.

Conservative's would tell a young African American that the sky is the limit and almost anything in America can be achieved if you are willing to invest the hard work necessary to get where you want to go. Liberals are obsessed with race. It is all they talk about then they go ahead and end school vouchers which gives predominantly underprivileged kids a chance at a better education and buses them to other schools. These programs are also mostly merit based. Liberals who have made it also love to tell you that you can't. Take Michelle Obama for instance telling African Americans in a speech that the "system is stacked against them"
The argument that there aren't currently any black republican senators is a silly one. Are you familiar with the local senate races? in which instance was a black republican overlooked in favor of a white one? Or were there none to run in the first place? if the latter is true in your eyes then this leads us to a bigger problem and that is what is it about the democratic message that is appealing to most blacks in America today? All I hear is negativity and telling people they can't do something not building them up. Places like Detroit keep electing democratic leadership and the peoples lives never improve. Its is almost like they enjoy being lied to. When somebody comes in and says look you need to educate yourself, live within your means, and work hard that is understandably a more bitter pill to take when democrats offer Obama money http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfGLB8LO1aM

Dear Idiots, The infamous "Barack the Magic Negro" first appeared in an LA Times opinion article written by David Ehrenstein. Rush Limbaugh parodied the column in song to get a rise out of liberals and it worked as planned. It is also fair to note that Rush Limbaugh is a private citizen he is not a politician rather he is a political commentator with a radio show on the AM band. He does not shape policy and has no power to influence or effect the lives of American citizens through policy. He is a private citizen. Again morons.....private citizen. zurcronium please tell me who the republican leader is that you speak of that made this comment? why not actually research where that came from? Ehrenstein is a liberal!!!!
I also find it funny to see people bring up political party history to try and prove the republicans are racist. Somebody needs to crack open an American history book for a much needed refresher course.

Timothy McVeigh was not a right winger he was anti-government just because one does not identify with the left does not make them a right winger by default and vice-versa.

And why was he even allowed to be in Denmark? Political Correctness / Liberal Attitudes
"For the life of me I can't understand this intolerance." Welcome to Christianity too.
Unless we are going way back in time this argument is weak as Christians are not going around committing terrorist acts save for the once a decade abortion clinic attack. Find another argument.
