Is NOW the time to replace RUSH LIMBAUGH on Armed Forces Radio?
I hope nobody forgets that it was the Newt Gingrich led Congress that "installed" the Don of right wing hate speech on the Armed Forces Network. It was a purely political decision that was not fought by President Clinton.

Limbaugh attacks the CIC in every broadcast. One wonders how Limbaugh has gotten away with attacking our CIC during a time of war. Just so folks are clear about exactly what Limbaugh has to say about the CIC to our soldiers, the following is a link to the media matters web site that chronicles the hate speech of Rush Limbaugh.
