Rush Limbaugh is cooked: The stunning fall of the right’s angriest bloviator

[Papageorgio]

Just a question what happened to the 99 weekers the democrats we're crying about when the program got cut off ??

Well, if you were informed at all, you would know the UE rate has to drop below a certain threshold BEFORE the extensions are cut off, so the 99 weekers got jobs first in an improving economy and then afterwards the extension was cut off when it was no longer needed.

It seems you were the one not informed dingle berry.

Nearly one million US workers cut off unemployment benefits
By Patrick Martin
18 June 2010
With 12 Democrats joining a unanimous Republican bloc, the US Senate voted Wednesday to defeat a proposed extension of unemployment benefits for workers who have been jobless for nearly two years. The bill would have extended unemployment benefits for those out of work more than six months, until November 30.

1/14/2014

(CNN) — Senate passage of long-term unemployment benefits appeared in doubt on Tuesday following the failure of two procedural votes, leaving the fate of emergency government assistance to more than 1 million people in limbo.

The votes come after fits and starts in negotiations involving Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and eight Republican Senators.

All parties said they hoped the talks would continue but several acknowledged the bill is now on a back-burner as the Senate scrambles to deal with other pressing legislation before a week-long recess.

One Democratic source said this would be a “cooling off period” after emotional debate.

Talks broke down over policy and process.

The White House said it was disappointed in the development, blaming Republican

Extending unemployment benefits stumbles in Senate


.

Except UE had declined from 15,352,000 at the height of the Bush Depression, to 10,280,000 when the GOP decided to screw 1 million Americans in a desperate attempt to damage the recovering economy. The extensions that brought UI to 99 weeks had already ended when the UE rate fell below 7.5%, well before your Jan 2014 article, and the extension delayed in your June 18, 2010 article was passed July 1, 2010.

See, right there is where the wheels fell off your tricycle. There was no depression.

Compared to Bush's first recession when he started it was a depression, so it makes it easier to tell the two apart.

Except the first recession was a result of the dot com bust, jobs were already being lost when Bush was sworn in less than a month and a half earlier.

 

[Papageorgio]

BTW: This thread is about fatass Rush Limbaugh.

Rush, from what I can tell, is still on the air.

Rush seems like an entrapaneur (sp?). He makes tons of money because people are stupid enough to listen to him.

That he has lost sponsors might mean his gross income is seven figures instead of eight...don't know.

well, no, it means that Right Wing Foundations are funding him to keep him on the air because no one wants their products associated with him.

So the GOP pays all those stations for Rush to be on the air? Do you have a credible link and not sone far off left wing nut site? Or is this another Joey B lie?

It's JoeyB Dolezal so there's really no reason to ask if he's lying again.

I'll try to get back here later with the names of the products/services that don't want to be associated with Rush today, yet pay his confiscatory ad rates anyway.

Stay tuned, JoeyB. Might be around to light you up again later.

Never said that. You are the idiot that thinks a President causes a recession in less. Than a month and a half in office.

You are pretty stupid if you think one President causes a recession or a boom. First off economies run in booms and busts. The recession in 08 was caused by government, business and consumers over extending their credit with no ability to pay it back. Government was spending money they didn't have, businesses had no cash reserves and consumers had over mortgaged their homes and maxed out their credit cards. It took decades to get to that point but nut jobs like you think it is one President. You are a Democrat and a Republicans dream, you are a partisan idiot.

If you want to call that a depression, it was a Clinton depression. Remember how Bubba whined about Bush "talking down" the economy when Bush was a citizen with no real power and Bubba was the most powerful man in the world? IOW, Bush inherited an economy in a down cycle, and 9 months later we were attacked in New York City, which knocked everything askew for a while.

Words mean things, and there is a definition that defines an economic depression. That was not a depression.

The Right always wants it both ways, Obama was the controlling influence on the economy before he was even elected, but Bush was never the controlling influence on the economy at any time before, during or after he was in office.

RUSH: To say that Obama has been in office only one month is not accurate from an effect on the world and an effect on the country standpoint. Barack Obama has been the controlling political authority on the economy for six months.

Well, he got those ads by cutting his rates and is running his own "Limbaugh Letter" and his "Rush 24/7" ads when he can't sell his ad space even at a discount, but here in the NY NJ markets the 2 local stations can't sell their ad space and are running Porky's parodies in place of ads.

Likewise the left has sought to deflect all criticism of Obama's economic policies by granting him eternal absolution from responsibility because he "had to clean up the mess". That will continue up until the day the next Republican is elected, at which time the intervening years will be deemed as not having happened, and the president will be held totally responsible to fix everything NOW. Can we face reality and acknowledge that an incoming president doesn't have a whole lot of influence on the economy until he signs his first budget or massive economic bill sent his way from Congress? IOW, Bush's first big impact on the economy was the tax cuts, and Obama was responsible for the economic situation when he signed porkulus into law. I'll let the readers look up when they happened.

Rush stopped mattering after he called Fluke Foul Names. Now even the right wing wants to be caught having a drink with the guy. Other than the loathesome Ted Cruz.

Sure he did. That's why he still has 12 million listeners a day. Sheesh you people are morons.

Down 70% from 40+ million per day before Fluke, by his OWN accounting which he says is the ONLY honest accounting of his audience.

December 9, 2015

RUSH: It amazes me -- it always has amazed me -- the audience of this program. If you really want to be honest about the audience of this program, forget the way the traditional ratings are taken. We measure it and so forth. Well in excess of 20 million people -- unique people -- in a week listen, and the dirty little secret about numbers in this program is 12 million people listen during a three-hour program. Twelve million unique people will tune in at some point.

May 26, 2011

RUSH:. According to reports at the peak of The Oprah's popularity, her show had 40 million weekly viewers. Now, that's not bad. That's almost as many as we have every day here. So our hat's off to The Oprah, 40 million viewers a week, not bad.

No, moron, he claimed 50 million a WEEK. Compared to Oprahs 40 million per WEEK. He is still at 50 million PER WEEK. Learn to count idiot.

With ZERO proof.
I can see 20 million knee-jerkers.
I don't know ONE Democrat who listens to him.

Then how do they come up with all the one-liners they parrot endlessly?

Amongst the 2 congregations I attend, only the Republicans parrot Rush's latest sound bite.

Well, duh. What do you expect? An unknown civilian who kept top secret emails on a largely unsecured private server and who deleted thousands with zero accountability or oversight would already be in jail. If you're a rich, white, democrat presidential candidate, however, you will see no prison time whatsoever. In fact, you will get a top-notch lawyer, refuse to cooperate, drag out the proceedings until no one cares any more, then get the whole thing to quietly go away. So spare us the faux outrage.

Not even a nice try at distraction. You guys haven't even proven Hillary broke the law when she did the EXACT SAME THING COLIN POWELL did.

Limbaugh screamed for years that drug addicts should be in prison. Until he got caught being one.

As we reported earlier this morning, Rush Limbaugh is allegedly in the midst of a battle with Cumulus Media, the distributor of his radio show. The company’s CEO has blamed ad revenue losses on the conservative talkers’ controversial 2012 “slut” comments about Georgetown student Sandra Fluke.

Mediaite’s own sources confirm that the ad troubles in connection with Limbaugh’s show are, indeed, severe. In fact, one source within the radio advertising world with direct knowledge of the ad buys on Limbaugh’s show confirms the extent of the problem: “The vast majority of national advertisers now refuse to air their ads during Rush Limbaugh’s show,” our source tells us.
