- =o= You've diverted attention from a central point: Limbaugh's
- executive producer was a media adviser to Bush's campaign in
- both 1998 and 1992. As far as I know, the producers of the
- shows you list were not part of any candidate's campaigns. If
- they were, I would of course agree with you.

- =o= Limbaugh represents the interests of the few parties who
- own the vast majority of the media. It is absurd to suggest
- that Limbaugh's soapbox is in peril.
-
- =o= It is even more absurd to insinuate that I would hope for
- such a thing. I suppose that when one doesn't have any real
- arguments to address an issue with, one has to concoct some
- kind of nonsense to divert attention to, but kindly leave me
- out of your nonsense.
