worse than that, we let 88 + universities endorse 260 limbaugh stations

limbaugh took credit today for being the reason the memo was released at 12 ET, thats when his show starts.

that's the same when the GOP announced palin was the choice for mccain. limbagh withheld support for mccain unti he finally chose palin over pawlenty and lieberman. that was fri before the GOP convention. without limbaugh's 'blessing' it would be a disaster.
