Limbaugh's "advisor" parody skewers DUers
Rush's announcement that he has become an unpaid offical advisor of the Bush campaign, a lame parody of the Carville & Begala deal with Kerry, was taken seriously in many of the threads here. It was a parody, yes?? I just don't won't any DUers to get dumped on for spreading misinformation. If am am wrong on this, well, ... then I'm wrong. ;)

1. What evidence do you have...
Of this being a parody?

6. where else has it been announced...
... other than that one link to his website, which was not on the homepage but in a subscriber's area. Read the thing, it certainly sounds like he's taking jabs at Carville, Belaga and CNN.

2. Al Franken used it yesterday on his show.
I was wondering what that was about. Now I understand.

3. This is news? Limbaugh "advising" Bush?
Shilling, perhaps, but "advising?"

Yes, from Franken and several threads on DU.


My point.... avoid spreading misinformation. If Rush is indeed an advisor then shout about it. If it's a hoax then it just makes our arguments stupid.

9. well, if you think that everyone don't already know Rush advises them
Edited on Thu Sep-16-04 07:05 PM by CatWoman
and if Rush thinks people aren't on to it, you must be the thicker than sewer sludge.

I think we were all amazed that he openly admitted it.

He wasn't parodying anything

10. That Rushbo, what a kidder!
Q: How can you tell when Rush is trying to be humorous?

A: When what he says isn't funny.

15. why?
Edited on Thu Sep-16-04 07:31 PM by discopants
it just adds some legitimacy to Rush beyond his audience. I don't think it's such a good thing. :b
