Anyone who thinks that Limbaugh isn't doing that for the $$$$$ is drunk on his couch.

 

[Frankfooter]

Time to take him to court.

Time to take him to court.

Go ahead. Limbaugh is exercising his first amendment right to express his opinion. You don't like it, don't listen.

 

[Valcazar]

I thought he had died already.

Just like you, he will be dead, eventually.

If someone calls someone a pedophile is that a 1st amendment thing? Or to say the moon is made of green cheese? I suppose so. But that lie caused lives to be lost.

Calling someone a pedo is libelous and the victim is entitled to seek damages. Calling out the results of an election, especially after the "irregularities" were simply dismissed, is a valid political opinion- RIGHT OR WRONG.

Simply dismissed in a courtroom by republican appointed judges. What they allege in court not quite the same as what they allege in public too.

All elections have a few irregularities. In fact more reported in 2016 than 2020. But not grounds for assuming that means your guy gets to win because you're suspicious a bloke who never got over 45% approval and trailed by 6 pts in the polls lost.

Amazing these so-called irregularities only favored Biden. Wow, incredible insight from the land of the delusional.

See how that works? You have an opinion and he does, too. The only difference is that no one cares about what you have to say.

He can call the election fraud and stolen and all that...he’s just kissing Trumps ass for the medal of freedom Trump gave him...why would Rush Limbaugh care about the future?

Do I give a shit? Limbaugh expressed his opinion as is his right.

This is why misinformation, bullshit and nonsense is being shunned and rightfully so.

Such a deserving recipient of the Medal of Freedom. What a great human being. i think he may be back on the oxy.

 

[squeezer]

This is interesting! Which one of you fanatical righties is in this focus group?

 

[mandrill]

Do I give a shit? Limbaugh expressed his opinion as is his right.

It's pretty clearly Sedition under Canadian law. Check s. 59 of the Criminal Code of Canada.

Will have to check some American sources. But of course they'd park Rush's cancer-ridden ass in a hospital ward anyway and then taxpayer would have to pay for the vast gallons of pain killers they're going to pump into him. So probably not worth the trouble.

Ok. Counter misinformation with information, nonsense with sense, shun or don't. You have as much of a right to do so as he does.

Not if he is advocating overthrow of the government. That's Sedition. And when you insist that the government is illegitimate and encourage "resistance", you advocate overthrow of the government. He is a seditious traitor. Look at the Criminal Code provision I just quoted.

Sedition law is easy to find in the US.

Everything you want is in Chapter 115.

You can see why I figure sedition is the obvious charge for the Jan 6 people.

I don't think calling the win "illegitimate" would count in the US, though.
