92. rather's a trophy on limbaugh's wall

Sat Oct 17, 2015, 01:21 PM

Oct 2015

discrediting rather and getting him fired was essential for keeping bush and talk radio played the esential role in saving bush/ rove.

like with everything else all they have to do is lie and distort and repeat it enough and it becomes truth. only talk radio can do that.

biggest mistake in political history: the left's ignorance of rw talk radio
