Rush Slams Fox News re Debate..
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/08/12/rush-limbaugh-fox-news-debate_n_925615.html

Rush Limbaugh shredded Fox News over their questions for the Republican presidential candidates in the debate on Thursday night. Speaking on his radio show on Friday, Limbaugh blasted the network, which co-hosted the debate in Iowa. He blamed the candidates' attacks on each other on what he believes was the hosts' attempt to gain the approval of mainstream media.

"My gosh, does nobody on this panel remember that we're running against Obama?" he thundered. "What is this business that these guys are trying to tear each other up?"

Then, he alleged, "Fox wants these people to tear each other up. Cause they want approval from the mainstream media, cause that's what the mainstream media would do." He added, "You never see the Democrats pitted against each other, not like this was."

Limbaugh especially took issue with Byron York, who had asked Michele Bachmann to explain what it meant to be a submissive wife. Limbaugh said, "Now I guarantee you, I guarantee you that the favorite journalist of the mainstream media today is Byron York.”

1. He of "Project chaos" that wanted everyone to register as Dems
for the Ohio/Texas/PA caucus/primaries to vote for Hillary to keep the Dem party in scorched earth mode.

Well, a big FUCK YOU Rushbo. Looks like its your turn now. You get to go against Obama sometime next spring, for now, its :popcorn: time

Oh, and that was a GREAT idea back in 2008. I can't wait to change my registration to R for our primary.

5. I'm pretty sure the word "submissive" would had to have been included
in the resumes of Limbaugh's past, present, and future wives.

12. My gosh.. Fox News IS the mainstream media..and Byron York is a douchebag
Edited on Fri Aug-12-11 08:28 PM by underpants
Stephen Hayes and Jonah Goldberg make up the Axis of Douche .....the Trio of Doucheness..the Princes(s) of the Land de Douche

And Rush love to quote Byron York on this show.

Everyone from everywhere is against the guy who makes $40 million a year.
