Limbaugh said NOTHING about Abramoff. I suppose Limbaugh Jr., Hannity,
will follow his lead. I'm not listening to another couple hours of their BS. Plus, it's time for Randi anyway.

The absolute outrage was the media's disinformation regarding the miners. THEY'RE ALIVE from an unknown source but someone the family believed. The family believed the person because his shirt had the Red Cross on it. The mining officials knew minutes after that report that the men were did but continued to let the families whoot, hollar, ring the bells, and praise God. Then Mr. Hatfield decided he would tell them. He made the statement that 12 were dead except for one. The families said he gave no apologizes and chaos started. The state police had to get the families off of the mining officials.

Now this is what Limbaugh talked about all damn day. Yes, it's horrible. Yes, the families should sue the ass of the coal mine owners for their absolutely mad anguish they must be going through. However, Rush Limbaugh doesn't have compassion for human beings?

This was used in yet another attempt to discredit the media. It wasn't the media's fault because of the way it happened. Even in print they said they had found 12 and were checking for vital signs. Anderson Cooper was there and I know he was asking the people where they got their information, who could officially give a statement, etc.

My point is, Limbaugh is using this to keep off the Abramoff story. He is using these poor peoples tragedy to throw fault at the media.

He never brought up Abramoff and all the laws that were broken, the Republicans who were paid off. Oh, my bad, he did bring up the way the Party was not going to help a Good man like Tom DeLay. \

In ending, one of his many genius callers called in and asked rush if there were any black men that died in the mines? Well you know how much trouble Rush tends to get into if he talks about race so he hemmed and hawed around. Then the caller finished his thought and said, "Well Rush if there had have been, then Bush would have already been blamed for this." Then chuckles and laughing a bit sarcastically. Then the saying as stated by another poster, "THE MEDIA LIED AND MINER'S DIED." Ain't that cute.

Wonder where he picked up that little cute, funny saying as 12 human beings were buried alive.

Rush, I hope there is a Hell.

Now, I gotta get another Xanax to calm down I'm so pissed.

1. Rush didn't need the mining story to stay off of Abramoff -
I don't think he is going to go there for any reason.

3. I know Hannity will stay away from the Abramoff story.
He will be hammering on the liberal media and how it never gets its facts right. And this mine story will really give him fuel to rant.

Being that FauxNews was leading the charge in the "12 Miners Live" story and Geraldo was broadcasting live interviewing the families, I don't think Hannity is going to be very successful blaming the media.
