Rush Limbaugh told me today that man made global warming is a hoax.

Now I don't care what lies that stupid gasbag tells except that he's convincing way too many people that he knows what he's talking about. Being there are no media outlets anymore on ordinary radio where you can hear Thom Hartmann or Randi Rhodes or many other liberal radio talkers who could expose his lies, makes him more dangerous than he's ever been.

We are increasingly living in a world where the liars and propaganda peddlers are hogging all the airwaves and media in general and the real journalists and truth tellers are having to play a game of survival on fringe media outlets.

This is not good for humanity and other living things if blowhards like Limbaugh et al convince those who don't believe in evolution or a spherical earth that we have nothing to worry about except Hillary Clinton and Benghazi.

The airwaves belong to the people. How do we get them back so we get all sides of an issue and an informed public instead of future possible extinction? BTW, where do the likes of Limbaugh think they are going to live when the planet becomes uninhabitable?

their side put Shit-for-Brains in the Oval Orifice in Y2K and 2004 ... so they do know all about hoaxes.


But as for this latest line of horse shit, it's just more of the same. They never give up.

They used to belong to the people, but that quaint notion died with the Fairness Doctrine.

Our government is bought and paid for, and the people can't afford to buy it back.
