If you want to bash Rush Limbaugh, there's surely plenty of ammunition out there. Just bring some of it. Deal in facts.
Instead we have TravelGolf.com's ambiguously liberal duo Tim McDonald - a waffler of John Kerry proportions and William K. Wolfrum - a man so out there that Howard Dean thinks he's wacky - engaging in schoolyard name calling.
First, there's McDonald calling Limbaugh a "Third Reich radio commentator", which isn't offensive as much as it's absurd. But McDonald wasn't done yet. Having run out of his "A material", he threw in "fat." Insightful.
Then there's K. the man who thinks everyone's interested in his middle initial using a blog to essentially rip on a reader for calling McDonald a Nazi sympathizer, while not mentioning that the reader was only parroting McDonald's own weak Nazi line on Limbaugh (selective liberal memory?)
K. really losses it when he makes the claim that "What Wie will have over Limbaugh is that her stardom will be for all the right reasons."
This is the same guy who's cracked hilarious jokes about Michelle Wie's inability to win in about ... oh, only every other blog. Yet when pumping Wie helps him knock Limbaugh, K.'s spinning faster than an old eight track. Oh, that great liberal shimmey.
What would those right reasons be? A marketing machine with no basis in bottomline sports results as opposed to a man who doesn't fit any Hollywood stardom type (not good looking, young or shallow) turning himself into the most successful radio show host in history through hard work. (You can say what you want about Limbaugh's views, it takes a tremendous amount of work and drive to become that successful from where he started - as opposed to Wie's marketing machine setup.)
The right reasons? Please.
I'm the only one at TravelGolf.com who actually saw how Limbaugh treated people at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic. He appreciated the fans, showed a love for golf history and mocked his own game (now that last one takes a secure brilliant mind). The guy's a gentleman, not some loudmouth lout. And I have often voted Democrat.
Sorry if that offends the most extreme left. But it's dealing in facts, personal experience. Something a little more substantial than a fat joke.
Michelle Wie is 0 for 32 in her pro career. That's a fact. Come up with some of your own for Rush Limbaugh.
And people wonder why the Republicans keep winning all the elections?
Bill Maher's embarrassed by this attempt at Rush Limbaugh bashing. This is arguing on a below George Clooney level.
Though Alec Baldwin might be down with it.
