From his site: link<br><br><br><br>Rush Limbaugh Becomes Official Unpaid Advisor to Bush-Cheney '04<br>September 13, 2004<br>I made an official announcement to open the program today. I have become, and have been for a while, an official, unpaid advisor to the Bush-Cheney '04 campaign, and we decided to go public with this because there's no problem with it whatsoever.<br><br>There was thought about my stepping down from the Golden EIB Microphone two or three days a week on the days that I was giving advice, but we decided not to do that. There's no conflict here. There's absolutely no conflict whatsoever. The line has been successfully blurring now for years and years and years.<br><br>I will not be giving up my precious seat behind the Golden EIB Microphone. I will continue to serve both functions with credibility on both sides, an official unpaid advisor to the Bush-Cheney reelection campaign '04, as well as your host here on the EIB Network.<br><br><br><br><br>

[color:blue]my original post (which was all about Kerry, which is why I bring Kerry up - hope this clears it up for you)</font color=blue><br><br>I realize your original post was about Kerry. My reply was about a specific part of that post -- the implication that all the listed countries had suffered troop losses -- and had nothing to do with Kerry, which is why I was curious to see his name keep coming up in our exchanges ...<br><br>[color:blue]You've always remained above this, which is why I've always respected your input. I guess some things are changing.</font color=blue><br><br>I hope not -- I really do put effort in not getting personal, but sometimes something manages to press even my buttons ;-) Regardless, I never intend to be insulting, so sincere apologies if my posts came off that way ...<br><br>[color:blue]a). We didn't "go it alone"<br>b). John Kerry is minimizing the deaths of those coalition members who've suffered casualties.</font color=blue><br><br>Thank you for the clarification =) You might have said that to begin with and avoided my terrible wrath ;-) :-D<br><br>a) I agree with<br>b) I don't agree with<br><br>***matt<br><br>Turn up the signal, wipe out the noise ...<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by six_of_one on 09/15/04 05:02 PM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>
Gary . . . man . . . I hate to break this to you, but I think this is tongue-in-cheek humor on the part of Rush. I think he's parodying the Kerry Campaign's hiring of CNN's Carville-Begala. This reminds me of the time, when I had time to listen, when Rush endorsed Bill Clinton back in '92. <br><br>I think you've officially been had . . .<br><br>****************<br><br>[color:blue]VOTE</font color=blue>[color:red] for President George W.

HAHAHHHAA<br><br>This is a parody of CNN saying there's no problem with Kerry advisers staying on the air. It's a joke...keep listening to Rush and you'll have the punch line by the end of the week. <br><br>
