Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsRush Limbaugh has started his program with an attempt to "re-educate" his audience. Scary stuff.
He's telling his audience not to believe what they've heard or been told the last several days. RUSH will re-educate them as to the "facts."

(7,875 posts)Of course. The shooter is always a lefty.
This particular one i saw posted on Craig's List. It has a "screencap" of his Facbook page, where he puts "Anarchist Communism" as his political views.
No chance this is doctored, right? Doesn't even look like him.

(22,920 posts)I like to know ahead of time what specific batshit crazy I'll be faced with in the days to come from the many dittoheads all around me.
I have no doubt Nancy Lanza was a Glenn Beck follower. I'd like to know what particular brand of Crazy he's shoveling today as well.

(2,679 posts)I think we now have official conformation on the right wing talking points of today. Thats why I was so pissed at morning joe. Liberal Hollywood. So much for watershed moments with the nutters. Good thing I got a big tin full of carmel popcorn this is gonna be a long debate.

(7,875 posts)I keep invoking Craig's List, but if you want to see the worst of the worst of right wing trolls, go to the rants & Raves section of any big, heavily Democratic city, (Washington DC, San Francisco, etc) and you will see where the most vile right wing trolls come out to play. Personally, the sheer volume of their bile makes me think they're on the RNC payroll. It's a pain in the ass to post on Craig's List, and yet these assclowns seem to have all day to dedicate to it.
And yes, "Liberal Hollywood" is already a talking point.

(9,841 posts)It's classic brainwashing 101: First thoroughly discredit the source your audience has been listening to. Then reintroduce your new "set of facts."

(15,064 posts)jumped on like an overused backyard trampoline. I knew these bastards would spout garbage and I can't wait for the blow back to see them fall hard and lose their audience and financial backers. I will celebrate when they eat their own dust.

(7,875 posts)They won't lose their financial backers. The people who keep these propagandists on the air are paying them to do a job: Keep the public angry at the left. Advertisers help defray the cost, but the job is what's most important. Their audience is mostly crazy anyway. They won't stay gone.

Mike Daniels
(5,842 posts)because I don't see anything coming of his attempt to explain the facts other than his saying something so patently offensive that it causes more advertisers to jump ship.
The real question is will he say something that will finally compel just one Republican politician to call him out "no holds barred" and who won't backtrack when said politician catches hell from their base.
