For some reason it didn’t occur to the State-Controlled Media to check the veracity of Sharpton’s allegations. They just accept them. Yeah, I guess so, just like they accepted Mike Nifong and his allegations of rape at Duke University. Suddenly the State-Controlled Media loses its journalistic character to hop on board with Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. Oh, yeah, really a high point for the media. This time, the media are a party to a lie, a willing party to a lie, a series of lies. Sitting in the front of the Sharpton smear bus, hosting him, interviewing him, promoting him, nothing new here, folks, Jesse Jackson, too. Other less prominent people are hopping on and off that bus. Most of them are ignorant of the facts. Others are deceiving themselves out of prejudice. And those people are always going to be out there, and I know that. Some are going to learn the truth, others won’t. It has always been this way. I don’t care. Anybody can take me on about what I have said. I expect that and I don’t shy away from it. But to go after me about what I have not said shows the character of the people behind this smear. Otherwise intelligent people believing these lies, shows their character.
The lack of curiosity on the part of people I have met, the lack of curiosity on the part of people I know to say, “What? That doesn’t sound like Limbaugh.” To just blanketly accept it shows the character of the people believing the smear. When the truth comes out, will it be too late? Yeah, for some things possibly, but the big picture, the pursuit of truth is not a sprint, it’s a marathon, and the truth always wins when it comes out. I know this for a fact. This is all not just about me. It’s about every one of us and what kind of country we’re going to have and the effort to discredit those who speak up for liberty, fairness, capitalism, freedom, those of us who speak up pose the biggest threat to the left in this country today. Individualism, rugged individualism, this is not desired, it’s not wanted. And so anybody who has the ability to speak up and be persuasive about it is going to be targeted for a smear and for destruction.
This is not about the National Football League. It’s not about the St. Louis Rams. That’s just a subset. This is the latest in a long line of attempts by the left to discredit any of us who believe what we believe. Sarah Palin, the list is as long as I wanted to make it. And I wanted to make sure that I thank you all for your support, and I wanted to make sure you understood that I know exactly what this is all about, and I want you to also understand, I’m not even thinking of exiting. I’m not even thinking of caving. I am not a caver. None of us are. We have been betrayed by too many who have caved. Pioneers take the arrows. We are pioneers. It’s a sad thing that our country over 200 years old now needs pioneers all over again, but we do.
How is it that when Righties quote Lefties, they have video, audio, and notarized confirmation from the Pope, but when Lefties ‘quote’ Righties, they have Wiki entries contributed by ‘Cobra’?
So where are these racist soundbites? Where’s the audio? Where’s the transcript? Name the year. Heigh-ho, say CNN’s Rick Sanchez and the rest of the basement-ratings crowd. Not our problem: It’s for Limbaugh to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he’s never said it. We’re too busy fact-checking anti-Obama jokes to fact-check our own reporting…
Rush is right on about this – it’s a gambit to destroy his credibility; to take him out so that he can’t play in 2010 the role he played in 1994. It’ll fail, as all their efforts have failed, because Rush doesn’t lie, he’s not a racist, he’s not a hater…he’s just someone speaking his mind, entertaining his audience and having a ball doing it. And liberals hate him for it…
